Minor Rant Thread part 3

[Glutton4...]

A particularly lazy driver, who can never be bothered to fill his vehicle up with diesel. Now, my Husband, who is just starting to prepare a Birthday dinner for all his family, has been called out to go and 'rescue' said driver, who has just run out of diesel.

The most annoying thing, is the fact that this is NOT the first time this driver had done this, it's about the THIRD time this year. Bladdy good job I don't work there ...



...and breathe...

[tiachica]

unemployment and banks....

[HotStuff]

How the !"£$%^&* are Widdecombe and Henson still in Strictly and Patsy & Felicity are gone, tragedy!

Whoever keeps turning the thermostat up .......( I think I may have a good idea ) When you pay the gas bill etc etc.........

[Caro]

People who don't deserve what they get, and who expect everyone else to feel thrilled for them. Even though they don't deserve it, and will never appreciate it.

Wearing an nice dress for a family christmas meal yesterday and being asked TWICE if I am pregnant....

No, you weirdos, I'm fat. Actually, I'm thinner than when you last saw me, but am wearing something different. If I was pregnant, I'd tell you....

However, the rant is tempered by the look on someone's face when I say "No, I'm just fat".... they are horribly embarrassed, whereas I'm not!

the look on someone's face when I say "No, I'm just fat"....

lol

my rant is the shops that shovel giant cheap chocolate bars at you when you just want a newspaper.
I now say "no thanks, I'm fat enough"

[Flummery]

Ditto those shops, Two-Sheds. I usually ask when they're going to offer fresh fruit! I've had some rum looks, I can tell you!

The rubbish collection lorry (among others, but it just reversed down our road) that has a voice saying " attention, vehicle is... reversing" every 10 seconds as long as it is in reverse gear, moving or not.
Does ANYONE really think that is going to be any more effective in persuading idiots not to stand behind it than a simple 'beep beep'?

[Two_Sheds]

No rants, just niggles really:
- dogwalkers not picking up, then the snow falls on the doo-doo and you walk in it
- having to rely so much on electric, then having no power for half an hour
- the new meter running up 8 points within the first second of it being installed
- OH saying things like "rock salt doesn't really go with this soup, mustard doesn't go with this cheese-on-toast". From the man who puts walnuts in a prawn cocktail, and cinnamon in a white loaf

[bobleponge]

Whats wrong with cinnamon in a white loaf??????

Flippin blackberry bushes. Wild ones that grow all over my garden, every year, without fail, causing me to lose hours and hours of my time, yards of skin and pints of blood.
I HATE THEM!!

[bobleponge]

The French air force that are continually buzzing my house at well under 1000ft, causing my dogs to go mad. If they'd only shown this much aggression in 1940!

[shirlthegirl43]

the pipes out to our shed (where the washing machine lives) for staying frozen solid when the sun has been shining on them all day!

[Two_Sheds]

Whats wrong with cinnamon in a white loaf?

Er, with Marmite?

Oh, I need a rant (no chatting). Um. OH who's off work all month and is bored. He has no hobbies, apart from baiting me into losing my temper (actually it's quite nice to be holed up against the snow together)

Mr. G just got in. Said he had a Dog run across the road in front of him on his drive home this evening. Managed to stop, on the icy road, and missed the Dog, who had wandered into a garden across the road. The owner just ambled up and said, the Dog had just got away from him, but it was OK, as the Dog knows where he's going! Bladdy idiot.
