Stupid little things that bug you

[give it to gordon]

I think they are PIR sensors that switch the lights on when it starts going dark.

I thought the sensors are on the top as all lights seem to them.

Not sure pal, that's why I said i think.

Lidl today, I had 4 items in my hand waiting in the queue just shy of the conveyor belt when they opened another til next to me, the 2 ladies behind me were like a pair of Olympic gold medalists even with full trolleys. No thought of me technically being next with only 4 things.

I was in no rush as it happens but, even if I've loaded the belt and I see the person behind me has a couple of things I always let them ahead of me.

I usually let someone with a handful of items go in front of me unless I'm pressed for time. I've had it where people have let me go before them plenty of times, it's common decency. I know it would be quicker using self scanning tills but I've had that much trouble with them in the past that I can't be bothered with them, plus i don't agree with stores putting them in to save on labour costs.

Yeah same here. Then you sometimes get people behind you tutting because you’ve let someone go in front of you when they’ve only got a toothbrush, toothpaste, condoms and lube and will be about 40seconds flat at the till.

I did say, "Thanks." Maybe you didn't hear me.

That sounds like a good night with fresh breath.

When your car lowers the volume when you reverse on a tune your singing along to, and then frustrates you with a short delay before returning to normal volume when you've put it back in drive.

Wouldn't the light come on every time a pigeon sits on it?

Needing a dump after just having a shower..winds me up.

Similarly when the Satnav bursts into life right in the middle of somerhing you want to hear, usually when Pep is being interviewed.

People like the woman ahead of me at the customer service desk at the supermarket this morning who handed over a fistful of lottery tickets while mumbling "Can you check these for me luv?". Inevitably there were no winners.

Flat headed screws!

I recently installed a coat hook rail thing that used six flat head BRASS screws.
Guess how many didn't strip out or snap.

Because they are lazy scum that were brought up by lazy scum.

Travelling on public transport leaves a lot to be desired sometimes. I however would ban snacking on local public transport. I think they already have a ban in place on the tram network and yet I’ve been on a tram when those inspector type folk have been on and young men have been blatantly munching away on Greggs type pasties and they haven’t intervened. So there you go.

Those posters on BM who insist on a space between a comma or exclamation mark and the word that precedes it. For example, 'Now I've been put right , I understand that the correct term is barm !'.
You know who you are.

I always take my own screws with me when doing those sort of jobs, wondered for years why screws that come with things always seem to be made of a brittle plastic but look like brass?
