Things that annoy you - the official thread

[Errkal]

I dont understand why anyone uses their ISP email account.

My my experience they have always been annoying and if you move ISP you have to change it. Just use Outlook.com or Gmail and problem solved, just put a forwarder on your ISP one so you dont miss anything.

Yodel.

Such a strawberry floating joke of a company. Ordered something from Amazon on the 12th of May, kept missing the delivery as they kept trying at the same time every day when I was at work. Missed it three times so they took it to the nearest center for me to pick up - 17 miles away from me, and as a non-driver who doesn't even know the area, was never going to happen. I phoned them and they said they'd deliver it on a Saturday so I waited in all day for it, never turned up. Phoned 'em up and they apologised and said they can't do anything now as they'll have to send it back to Amazon in ten days. Phone Amazon who get in touch with them, tell them to redeliver it today so I wait in for it, gets to midday and I get bored so I check a tracking code I have from before - they've sent it back to Amazon. Phone them up and they just say "yeah, you're right, Amazon have asked us to send it to you - I can see that e-mail here but we've posted it back to them a couple of days after we got that message. Sorry". Such a pain to try and get through to someone on the phone too, it always takes you through to an automated machine, which ALWAYS strawberry floating hangs up on you.

Jesus strawberry floating Christ is there anything more disgusting than the sound of a fat man slurping from a pot noodle pot, then grunting?

Show some compassion, it is just a man trying to enjoy his lunch. Why are you even watching?

Sky were great using Gmail. Should never have changed it.

[False]

Gmail changed their terms to all companies who were using it which effectively priced them all out of it. Hence the migrations to other platforms.

Aren't Virgin still using Gmail?

[False]

Might be, for now.

[Stugene]

Aye they use gmail. But, I just access my virgin account through pop3 in my gmail account.

I've been doing that for years, dunno why people keep themselves prisoner to terrible email, imagine running a business through it

And yeah Google massively hiked their prices for corporate use. Possibly had something to do with office 365 being relatively expensive and Google looking like a poor man's choice. Usual monetisation ladder really.

Oh you couldn't use Yahoo for business. Not in a million strawberry floating years. I've had emails that take anywhere from 5 minutes to over an hour to arrive. On occasion conversations or responses have made zero sense to me...and when I run it through Google Apps it's because Yahoo have had it for 29 strawberry floating DAYS.

I've felt like killing someone at times.

A fat man making panting noises in a toilet cubicle.

One of my housemates will come into me when I'm eating say, a sandwich with white bread, and tell me about how awful white bread is for you, and how its full of cards and its poison and disgusting blah blah, then go over to my white bread and make herself toast or a sandwich or something. When I call her on it, she tells me its a few slices of bread and I need to chill out lol.

[1cmanny1]

If she ever eats a sandwich while you are playing poker, shoot the bitch.

People that stink of BO on transport. Look, I realise it's getting hot but seriously...48 Hour extra strength deodorant exists now. And even if it doesn't last the 48 hours that they claim, there's really no excuse Day 1. Are YOU this man? Sort yourself out.

[1cmanny1]

Smokers are just as bad. Really you just have to get out of public transport, the cuntiest driver is better than scum on public transport.

The Discovery Channel annoys me. I used to love that channel when I was a kid, now you might as well call it the Canadian Hillbilly Channel. It is a sad state of affairs when I would rather watch the religion channel featuring a guy saying how Katy Perry is the devil, over the entire Sky Network.
