Soda Jerk Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 The ice. Snow is fine, but it's all just solid, glistening ice now. The pavements are fucking lethal. It's official that the council have cut back on gritters too. It's a warm feeling that they can put a price on slipping on the ice and busting your head open. At least Marischal College is starting look nice though, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Agreed, I was walking up the Spital thinking it would be okay because everything had started to thaw. Fuck that noise, even with my boots I had to walk on the road because the pavement was a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 The ice is melting a little, but it's so slow that its making the solid ice even more slippery. The City centre is mostly okay. Go out to where people actually live though and it's just mental. The council's most recent statement was that "we're handling the adverse weather just fine". Couldn't agree more, guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I nearly ended up in there with her as a patient a few times. It beggars belief that they haven't even bothered to grit the pavements in the Hospital grounds. You'd think they'd be busy enough without all the additional injuries caused by their ridiculous gritting policies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Aye at least there's some grip to be had in the snow if you're wearing boots, the solid ice that's now on the pavements is a bit sketchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Renewing rail cards. Filling in the same form every year. I got a pretty bleak look when I asked to borrow a pen to fill in the form for the 5th time in as many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news, a man skied past me on the way to work the other day. On skies. A man on skies went past me on the pavement, mocking me with his graceful motion while I stumbled about like a twat.What a cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Here's a Kincorth related pet hate - fucking speed bumps! Every road out of my house has the fuckers on it. Totally unnecessary. The other day I was driving through Northfield and I went over one that was covered in ice and broke the fucking bracket that holds my exhaust on.(Probably didn't help that I had 3 people in back of a Ford Ka, so had a ground clearance of about 2 inches).

britheguy Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 My pet hate today is people leaving their radios/walkietalkies on at meetings and therefore all you hear is fucking squelching and chitterchatter when you are trying to hear what is being said. It's like they are that important that they need to be on call 24/7 the fucking assholes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gooch_Taylor Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Working twenty and a half hours this weekend, getting home and deciding I'm finally gonna watch the extended cut of A-Team or watch Inception again since I watched it in bits last time, then finding out that both Blu-rays have vanished and appear to have left the flat of their own accord.Also, idiots who argue with me that their card which expired TWO FUCKING YEARS AGO is still valid to get in for a swim. Cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooch_Taylor Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Feeling a cunt myself when I get myself all pissed off, only to find said films have somehow shifted themselves to under the seat I have been sitting on the entire time.

KarmaTsunami Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 I have a problem with missing discs too. I'm proper annoyed as I wanted to watch something totally cool and awesome that was not Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince AT ALL only to find that it's gone missing. I can find the extra features disc, but not the case with the film. I can't remember lending it to anyone either. It's bastarding annoying.

Gooch_Taylor Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 The best bit was moving and, as I unpacked my extensive collection, coming across films I hadn't watched in fucking ages, sitting down to watch them, only to discover that the disc was still in my brother's room back at my folks'.Only really wanted to watch A-Team again cause the missus wanted to watch it as well, so we watched it in the living room, where my PS3 and HD TV isn't, so I was robbed of the extended cut that's ONLY on the blu-ray. As for Inception - I watched about half of it on the normal TV and the other on the HD one. I want the whole thing in glorious HD damnit!
