Stupid little things that bug you

The string of beads at the bottom of Venetian Blinds. Damn things keep getting snagged on the window stays and snapping. Either got to use the ugly jointing beads or re-string the whole lot.
 
Water bottles.
Every fucker at work has a water bottle.
They’ve become a fashion accessory.
I still turn up with the small plastic supermarket brand bottle where everyone else comes in with a multi coloured jug full.
They used to be small, bland bottle or company branded bottle but now they have to have patterned and funky looking containers. And they are getting bigger. Those with bigger cars have a bigger bottle. And now a swivel straw on the lid.
I was at a training course last week and the tutor was gulping on her straw at the end of each paragraph she read out. Course could have been over 30 mins earlier if she’d stopped drinking. And at the end, the company luvvies went up and said they “lurved” her bottle and were eager to know where she got it from (so presumably they can get one too, got to keep up with the Anderson’s….)
How the fuck did we all cope years ago without the need to carry a water well around with us?

Rounds in pubs. What's the point? You have to drink at the pace of the fastest drinker. There's always some moaning that some bugger orders a more expensive drink when it's somebody else's round, or misses their turn....I'm with Tommy lol.

Yes, just walk down to the office water cooler, pick up the plastic cup and get a fuckin' drink once an hour!
Although on second thoughts maybe it's a good way of drinking beer on the job ;)
 
I haven’t slept much because the neighbor’s dog was barking like crazy last night. No amount of coffee can help me now. I also didn't receive the transfer from fairfx, which i supposed to get yesterday already and that is really annoying. Trying to reach someone now who can sort this out

Yep, and all done to the background of a live, laugh love wall decor and a crushed velvet couch/curtains combo.

Chavtastic. Whoever came up with the gender reveal should take a long, hard look at themselves.

Ah, gender reveal.
What is the point?
After all, when it gets older, the child may decide it's a hatstand.

Or even (sadly) be stillborn.....
