The official let off steam thread

Ah, its all online now, pvr. No more £20 note and a postage stamp, its all electronic applications, so I can only surmise that when scanning the passports, their software runs as well as their traffic :D
 
They changed? I was only there about 5 months ago and still had to go through the routine.

Best hotel I have ever stayed in in my life though, love the place aside of the traffic.
 
I'm getting fed up of crap competency based interview questions. No wonder I never apply for jobs......does my bloody head in :headbang:

Challenge me, don't make me regurgitate my CV.
 
Dirty, scuttling, creepy f**king spiders whose only goal in life seems to be building a web to catch your face when you go outside to get the paper in the morning....
So glad I don't live in Australia any more, those hairy octo-ped b*stards would pick up your kids and take them away as soon as you turned your back. I swear the spiders from Lord of the Rings were the ones that lived near my house in Sydney. At least here in NZ they're just an inconvenience and not a fatality.
Maybe if they caught enough flies so that it didn't feel like a Biblical fly infestation in my house every summer I'd cut them a bit more slack.
Having said that, I won't evict them from the house in the misguided hope they will earn their keep and lower the insect count, but I think they're just building their dream homes for 'Better House & Web' magazine, and not actually for catching anything (except my face - see first comment...)

People who reckon smoked rear lights on my car are dangerous when they've never seen them in operation
People who can give it on the forum but can't take it so just become insulting
People who spell brakes as breaks ffs
People who work in call centres in India who cannot answer a question if it's not on their script
People who have to tell you they are vegetarians within 60 seconds of meeting them(that's all vegetarians then)

Dav the wheel nut - you must be my long lost twin - I could have written about 90% of that list myself :rofl:
 
Getting emails with "Please do the needful" and "I have a doubt" or saying "Yes" in meetings but meaning "No" :headbang:
 
Numpty's who constantly say "And I was 'like'.. OMG." "I went in and it was 'like'...wow that's so cool".

Like!!..like WHAT? How the hell can you be 'like' oh my God, And also be 'like' a statement? Stop saying bloody 'like' every other sodding word..!!!! :headbang:

Then there's raising your voice tone towards the end of the sentence as though you're a bloody Australian. :x
 
Brain-dead morons who can't walk in a straight line on crowded pavement because they have their eyes glued to their fecking phone - probably updating their gloatbook status to 'walking to work' :headbang:
 
People who literally say literally in every sentence describing something, particularly when they mean the antonym 'figuratively'. Literally.

Whilst annoying literally can now mean not literally too :headbang:

1.1 informal Used for emphasis while not being literally true:
I have received literally thousands of letters
 
Politicians..............I Hate them all!!!!!!!! Lying,smarmy,sneaky,smug,gloating,good for nothing,waste of space,full of empty promises,lying(yes I know I've already mentioned this),evasive(answer the bloody question you have been asked), excuses for human beings............Could you also all stop breathing because you are wasting valuable oxygen!!!!!!!!

Think Guys Fawkes had a good idea.....
 
Vet's & more specifically how they charge fkin ridiculous coin for routine stuff !!!! :(
They actually make dentists seem decent 8)
 
The insidious creeping trend where your 'choices' are still not actual choices. Example:
I am finding more and more software that when you install it, it will want you to use a feature (usually uploading every piece of data pertaining to you, your family, your cat, etc...), so it gives you these options: "Yes, please" or "Remind me later"
Wait, what? How about NO! I don't want what you've decided is best for me, so stop metaphorically patting me on the head, and let me choose 'No' you condescending piece of crap software :soapbox:

Oh no! I need to let if more steam then if I may...

Idiots adding meanings of words to the dictionary which directly contradict the original meaning because some chavs on tv use it in every sentence!
