GRcade

I paid off a loan early last week. Which was nice.


The standing order for the loan came out of my current account this morning. Which was not nice.


I rang up my bank to try and get this sorted out and was on hold for ten minutes. That wasn't particularly nice.


The miserable, worthless, oxygen-thieving sack of rancid rat spunk I spoke to decided that the best way to deal with my issue was to transfer my call to a department that was closed. That was shite.

But she had a Coke Zero so it's all fine.

Er, are we talking about a Ben and Jerry's size tub or a one of those Walls Cornish tubs?!?

It was a proper tub of ice cream.

Because she took up half the bench with her enormous girth so other people couldn't sit down, made a racket with her heavy nasal breathing, smacked her lips whilst eating and was generally just sweaty and gross, I don't need that gooseberry fool when I'm trying to relax and eat my lunch. She also then put her earphones in and called some her mates to have random inane conversations that everyone had to listen to, which I hate almost as much as her feeding show.

That's impressive, getting that early bulk on for winter.

People engaging in PDAs on a fairly packed commuter train. Ok, i get you want to go screw or whatever, but how about give it a rest for the brief 25 mins we're forced to share the same space?

It was his ice cream.

I was due to receive a package on Friday but I was in work, received a non-delivery note from RM. Went to the sorting office Saturday morning to pick it up and they couldn't find it. HOW THE strawberry float CAN YOU NOT FIND IT? It took them 20 minutes of searching before they gave up.

Does it not go back to the depot before being sent to your local sorting office? It often says so on the red slip.

Nope, next day pick up from the sorting office according to the card, also I wasn't the only one, there were two others there at the same time and they were unable to find their letters.

Someone on Twitter saying that Corbyn only went to Glastonbury because adults aren't buying his message, clearly implying that the people there aren't adults. I'd take the stab at the predominant age group being 18-30 there...and they wonder why he got so much support from that age group.

Hate this, especially when it asks the second you hit the site.

When people are in your home and are never satisfied with what you offer them, or make constant suggestions on what you should be buying or what they buy instead.

Have you got any Evian?
I've got the stuff that comes out of the strawberry floating tap Buxton.
Nah, you're alright.

Coke Zero, Pepsi Max...
Any Coca Cola?
No.
Wasn't that thirsty anyway.

And this is why nobody has come over to my house since 1996.

In fairness coca cola is better than either of them.

They'd then only moan I'd given them the wrong type of diabetes.

You give me type 2. You need not have bothered. Type 1 or GTFO.

People who won't shut the strawberry float up talking about Wimbledon even after you tell them you don't like tennis.

COME ON TIM!

Ban request.

See also people talking about the latest premier league/champions league/world cup games after youve said you dont watch any of it.

If someone asked me for a specific brand of bottled water I think I'd have to stop being friends with them.
