Stupid little things that bug you

[Tuearts right boot]

Adverts for techie stuff....I know they have disclaimers at the bottom in very small print but come on........
We bought a Hive camera thingy, my mum's got dementia and ' walks ' around her neighbours. The deciding factor came as she wandered into Adams house next door, through his French windows, he came whistling down the stairs after having a shower wearing nothing but a smile to be confronted by my mum who demanded to know what HE was doing in HER house.
We eventually had it fitted by the nice man from British Gas. It's crap, in so far as it takes an age to download, or whatever it does, and in the meanwhile any psycopathic lunatic could have broken in,robbed and raped my poor mother and be off down the road, flicking the V's as he goes before I've even been notified. A far cry from the bloke on holiday telling the courier guy where to leave the parcel.

People who use Americanisms, such as "cart" for "trolley" (supermarket)

Does that apply to us Americans who take the trolley (tram) to the supermarket where we live use a cart (trolley)? :)

Take a streetcar instead.
That way there will be no confusion...

An excerpt from the highway code:

"always check that the traffic has stopped before you start to cross or push a pram onto a crossing"

So women stop leading onto a zebra with your pram / pushchair while traffic is still underway! Are you fkng mad!! It absolutely won't end well!!

I feel a bit better now...

 

[mikemcfc]

people who assume you are using Americanisms when you actually are from there where everyone says cart, and no one says trolley. Why use two syllables when one will do. ;)

Probably already mentioned, but people who start a sentence with 'so'. Even worse, answering a question with 'yeah,no'.

And people who make a statement but end the statement with “, no?”

But that’s the way it is, no?

No, it’s fucking not you annoying cunts!

People who drag their suitcase down a flight of stairs in hotels.
Clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk, clu....
Either carry it or use the friggin lift!!!

 

[WEMBLEY76]

People who say “is that even a thing” ?
Rather than admit they haven’t got a scoobie.

That American cookery show The Pioneer Woman. Everything about it makes me shout at the tv; from the way she pronounces things like ‘erbs instead of herbs, baysil instead of basil etc to that characterless husband of hers! Who the hell calls their son Lad anyway???
