Really minor annoyances

This is a weird thing for you to argue about but I can tell you categorically that on classic rock stations over here they ALWAYS play the songs as noted above.

You don’t live here so you don’t listen to those stations so arguing the toss over something inconsequential about which it would be pointless to lie is a baffling stance for you to take.

Short of polling the board for any others who live over here who can back me up or trawling the internet to find radio playlists (do they publish them online)) - neither of which I can be arsed to do to win a puerile argument there’s nothing I can do to prove my point so we’ll have to leave it there, but there’s absolutely zero reason for me to make up this ‘minor annoyance’ just to mention it on here - It happens to be true.
Well bugger me it wasn’t so hard to find after all.

It is a bit of a minor annoyance when an argument erupts because of a misunderstanding like: one random bloke in the internet doesn’t realise that another random bloke in the internet lives in a different country. 😉😀

Hate all this bollox, your shopping is an inflated £84, but if I can have your information you can have it for the normal price of £72.

Irritates me irrationally

One of my friends used to work in Tesco. Clubcard brainwashed.

So am having my shopping habits monitored for paying a reasonable price?

No, they're total bargains
 
In the Co-op earlier

5 people in the queue.

Old Girl, bless her asking the the till person to count her change for her shopping.

Back at the queue I was and the 4 in front all were twitching, shaking the head and looking back with raised eyebrows.

Old girl turns around as her change is being counted and says "I'm sorry about this"

Back of the queue I pipes up "Don't you apologise, we are all good"

Now my Really minor annoyance here is with the eyebrows raisers with no patience.

Off she went with her rolling granny trolley and I wished her a great Easter. The rest in the queue I wish nothing.

What's wrong with roofboxes? I'd have to hire a van to go on holiday if they didn't exist.

nothing wrong with them. i just have an irrational dislike of them, same as those cars with scrolling indicators.

back to the thread subject. when you spend an age tinkering on with the bike and fettling the brakes, clean everything up, new fluid, bleed them and can't find one of the reservoir cap screws that you put to one side to clean the threads. no doubt it'll turn up embedded in a tyre at a later date.

Got an electric one, but it was in Mrs G's f***ing car.

Don't like foot pumps.
The bassas bite. 🤬🤬🤬

It's a minor annoyance in queues like the coop that not one person knows how to use a self checkout

You can use the self checkout for that pint of milk. I just don't know how and want to have a bit chat with the assistant anyway to annoy you even more

(Sadly I often need to ask for something from behind the till Nicotine is bad)

Kiosk check out queue.

I've got a basket with 4 things in it, but need tabs. Gadgee with a pint of milk walks straight ahead of me, says nowt, and literally assumes my place in the queue.

"Excuse me, there's a queue"

He just looks round at me, and then turns back around ignoring me.

"Excuse me, there is a queue"

Looks around and says "I know, but I only want this pint of milk"
Now if he had asked, I'd have said nee bother. Gan on.

I actually said "I don't care, get in the queue."

So he did.

I checked my 4 items through, waited until they gave me the price, then got my wallet out. He's tutting now.

I then said "I'll pay cash", went through my pockets to get the right money. More tutts.

I then said "Oh I need cigarettes", and ordered them. More tutts.

He lost it when I asked the lass to check my lottery ticket. Put his milk down and just fucked off. 🤣
