Really minor annoyances


Went to see Mission Impossible and was surprised that it had a satisfactory ending. Why make a film title so misleading?

And why do people say "None of us are getting any younger" No shit Sherlock :mad:

Waking up at 6am on a bank holiday Monday with unbelievable cramp in my hamstring.

Getting up at 6am and finding out the dog has been unwell and first up, I need to clean it up

Getting up at 6am knowing I need to go to a supermarket, but being a bank holiday the local ones are doing sunday opening and I can’t take advantage of going early when it is quiet.

Getting to the supermarket hours after waking up to find the aisles are full of meanderthals, making it take 3 times as long to do my shopping. I even had to wait ages while people stood blocking the way to the scan as you shop readers, both then started searching for their barcode. If you are not ready, stand aside.

I’d agree, I can understand that some musicians and albums become a part of fashion and pop culture but it’s just weird because they don’t have anything to them aside from aesthetic.
Same with wearing a sports team shirt/cap because you like the logo.

Nice Shirt pal, you a Fiorentina fan, no I just bought it because it has the Nintendo logo on it, just odd behaviour.

My mate once struck up a conversation with a lad wearing a Nirvana in utero shirt and he was unaware of who they were and bought the shirt because he liked the design.
Either that or he didn’t want to talk to my mate, which is understandable because most of the time I dont.

Surely it's just for the aesthetic so it's not really that bothersome. Used to love my old Jack Daniels t-shirt but I think I've drank it once!
 
I have a little scratch on the bonnet of my car. It’s barely noticeable. But once I noticed it, I know it’s there and it’s annoying.

I’m not a petrol head. I’m not even the kind of bloke who polishes his car. But the neighbour in the house opposite is. He’s always fiddling with his car and when he’s not he’s fiddling with his son’s car.

So when I mentioned that I had a tiny scratch and T-cut didn’t seem to make a difference, he loaned me some ‘G3’ that he said would sort it.

I now have a scratch surrounded by little swirl marks where the g3 has damaged the paintwork. It’s gonna cost me £50-£100 (two quotes) to fix it and the scratch is probably still gonna be there.

I know it’s too late now but if you can feel the scratch with your fingernail then it won’t polish out.

As Alanis Morrisette told us “It’s the good advice when you’re already late”
 
Buying raffle tickets. Why did people start selling "strips" of tickets rather than single tickets?

If they sell a strip of 5 as the smallest unit of tickets you can buy, and just put the other side of that strip into the pot, then those 5 tickets become equivalent to 1 ticket. There's absolutely no point in doing this.

The only difference is that you burn through your book of tickets 5 times faster.
