Stupid little things that bug you

I like strong tea. I was in Costa at Tesco's in Colchester. I ordered a tea and asked if they could put an extra teabag in as I like it strong - tea can be very anaemic in cafes sometimes. This request isn't usually an issue.
"Yes" said the girl. I paid £1.50 and moved over to where the barrista girl was working. She looked - gormlessly at my order as my turn came, then announced, "Sorry, I can't give you an extra tea bag without charging you twice."
"Really?!" I answered, thinking "....£1.50 for just another teabag; fuck off!!!"
I'd already paid; had some time to kill, so I stayed and had my drink.
It was anaemic.

Should have told her to leave the one you'd paid for in the cup.....and never go in again.

Shit drivers. A moron in a taxi drove right in front of the bus I was travelling on this morning. How the bus driver didn't smash into the **** I don't know. Maybe the bus driver had sharp reactions and excellent brakes. The only snag was that he shook all his passengers to fuck.

The taxi driver should not be behind the wheel of a taxi, a car or even a milk float. But he's far from unique. Almost every time I go out, I see at least one example of shit driving, and often several in a day. Yet the police are 'persecuting' drivers. Are they fuck as like.

It's far easier to prove speeding, no insurance, no tax etc than to prove dangerous driving. - Having said that, the taxi plate is often an indication that the driver doesn't have a clue. Particularly if it's a Wolverhampton plate being driven out of area.
 
Wife talks about something in her mind and expects me to know the full context and have the necessary answers. Gets cross because I'm "not on her wavelength".

Also, often fails to appreciate that words have specific meanings. Example: "Please will you fold it and put it away?" I look for an item to fold and put away, but there isn't anything obvious nearby. She then gets all exasperated and gets a pile of washing out of the dryer and plonks it in front of me.

My Mrs has a stall at Wolsingham Show this weekend. She has only gone and lost her 2 passes to gain entry. However, somehow this ends up being my fault and she gets in a foul mood.
However, my main gripe is that this is the 3rd year running she has done this. The previous 2 years the passes have yet to ever show up.
She always claims to have left them in a safe place!!!!

Mrs KS is congenitally incapable of putting stuff away in the right place in the kitchen. “Where did you put the oven gloves?” I ask. She can’t remember. There is a drawer full of roasting tins etc where the gloves should go. I once had to use a milk bottle as a rolling pin for a year when she put it away randomly. Found it eventually.
Now, where on earth is that tomato purée?

We once found her car keys in the freezer and she once lost our hoover. Still never found the hoover

They’ve been for sale since last Easter, they’re all year round. I’m not sure things are seasonal anymore.

Not so sure, I walked around Waitrose the other day dressed in my favourite bunny costume and you wouldn't believe the looks I was getting.

When I did it in March, people were taking photos of their kids with me...

My mate says….
On dating websites when the womens profile picture is 50% her face and 50% her breasts on every picture.

In the discription she says “no men just after one thing”

Come on love, you’ve got your chebs out and then tell lads not to be interested in them.

Tell 'your mate' to reassure her that you actually quite like both of them... :-)
