That place is an absolute shit hole, I lasted 6 months there and had to quit before I went on a killing spree lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 The NHS. So, I have to wait a week to go to a doctor who obviously couldn't give a fuck about my minor physical issue and all he does is say he'll refer me to the physio who I have to wait an additional 2 months to see.I should have stepped in front of a bus on the way over On the plus side, we do have drooling genius Stephen Hawking.

Lemonade Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 People mispronouncing the word sandwich. I really hate it and EVERYBODY does it. It's easy, it's just said as it's written - Sand-Witch. But everybody pronounces it Sam-Widge. There's no M and there's no G, so can people please start pronouncing it properly. K thanks.

K thanks.This reminds me of my other pet hate, which is people thinking you're 'posh' just because you can pronounce things correctly and suffering the sneering British class hatred as a result, despite being completely piss poor.The east coast yanks say 'sammich' and it winds the west-coasters up like you wouldn't believe. Of course, they probably mean a burger when they say that. Those crazy guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K thanks.Would it be easier if we all said Butty? I do like that word, even if there is no butter on my butty. It's a butty.Pronouncing the Ch like a G is a bit mroe forgivable than putting an M in there though. That's just wank.My pet hate today is horrible yobs. Someone crashed into the missis' car during the night, and drove off. Big damage. Needs a new door. It left some blue paint residue from their car though, but the Police can't really do anything about it. If I do see a blue car with a scuffed bumper round our end, I'll be happily putting holes in their tyres. Possibly even jamming open the boot and putting a hole in the spare too. Oh, and the obligatory turd in the petrol tank. I hope it's a runny one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 RE: My telesales whinefest.I've got them to hang up a few times by pointing out my phone's registered on the TPS and they're breaking the law by calling me. Then I start asking for their name, their supervisor's name, their office address (some of them don't know this, so I ask how they manage to get to work) etc. Quite often in the middle of it all they just hang up.I just signed up for this to do something about my marketing call problem, so we'll see how it goes.Piece of piss to register:TPS RegistrationThis week, it's been the robots.
