Which is then transferred to the peanuts

I don't think you're supposed to share nuts in pubs, anyway. They're not communal nuts. Some irritant brings them round when you're trying to get drunk so that the salt dehydrates your mouth, making you buy more booze.

It's not supposed to be some hipster-shared-experience-thing.

That's something that annoys me: going to a really nice coffee shop (I like poncy coffee), wanting to buy a cake, but being put off by the lack of a window or similar cover. I don't care that your clientele are well-bread and broad-minded, and their kids have more character at six than I do at 40, I don't want cake that's been sneezed and coughed over all morning (or even just spoken over). It's really off-putting.

I feel like someone needs to point it out to them.

Rather it was piss

Half the vegetables we eat grows straight out of shit anyway.

When a passing gull shits directly on to your bowl of very expensive peanuts on the table outside the boozer.

That I knew Oral-B DOES make a toothpaste

Palace fan, though.

Must admit I am same both with the poncy coffee and the ******* cake. Really surprised they can do it to be honest. Worse still probably came out of wrapper out the back anyway.

When I have had it half time it's a bit dried out and crispy not sure if that's the air or the snot causing it..

People that want to live in a sterile atmosphere and therefore paving the way for the increase in flu epidemics.

The **** at work who keeps borrowing my kit, then lying about it, making it stealing.

Fixed that for you.

I also have no time for these people.

The BBS swearfilter for not letting me call a **** a ****.

People who snort, talk or do anything on the morning train up to work.

Someone said on these boards that in Japan it is a great faux pas to make any noise on a train, sounds great.

People who either cant piss without getting it all over their hands,or they have incredibly dirty cocks they never wash when they have a shower.

:supergrin:

No, remember they won’t touch the peanuts because they are supposed to be covered in piss.

I remember when they were covered in shit and called Treets.

Do you often get shit on your nuts ?

Every time a bus goes past our local’s pub garden, my bloody phone asks if I want to join their WiFi network.

How do you know?

Don't answer that.

Don't answer that.

Know what?

What shit?

You need to be more understanding of care in the community gentlemen.

Is it palsy or are they wanking?

Apparently I am going to see Wilson Phillips whether I want to or not.

I have a fear I will be the only male in the audience (or at least heterosexual one). I still seem to be paying for going to the Cup Final in 2016!

That these men’s cock are dirty :eek:

How so? We know one for sure shaves the other for hygiene:D

A bit of a follow on to my Brits Abroad gripe a page or so back.

I notice many will talk about "Going home", as in, "Have you been home lately?".... er yes every night. Or, "Sorry we can't make that night we are going home for a few weeks".

This coming from people who have lived here 30+ years.

I appreciate home is where your heart is, so I do question their motives for being here. And again this is a predominately, but not exclusive, female trait.

Wankers who are happy to pay 4 euros for stale gobbed on Tarta de Santiago because they think it makes them look like a local.

People who post cryptic messages on Facebook... just say what you ******* mean... If I'm a friend I will understand, I'm not a mind reader FFS.

Stop using Tapas bars in Croydon then.

Well how else are they getting their hands so dirty when they pee?

wanker [emoji2]

U OK hun?

Im not noticing people with nob cheese all over their hands..

Which was my point.
I take it you havent read the previous posts to my original one?

No I haven’t.

The lady who 3 times in a row in the spinning class has sat on the bike by the fan that helps cool the room down and then turns it off as its ‘cold’. Try moving to a different bike then (another cyclist suggested this to her but not so politely)

And whats the new fashion to sit sideways on a train seat in rush hour with legs under the space in front of the adjacent seat?.

Match of the day social media feed or should I say Man Utd social media feed - has to unfollow after today’s output

Pathetic isn't it.

It is rather obvious.

You didn’t quote another post in the post I quoted of yours, where you were talking about dirty men’s cocks. How I am, on one of the busiest threads of the BBS supposed to know it’s a reference to something else? So looking from an objective perspective can you see that your post if viewed as from a first time viewer seems odd.

What did I miss out on?

You sound very confused. Why not let it go?

Your mate didnt let it go, so Im happy to talk about it till the cows come home, I have nothing better to do.

My perspective was, I made a post saying how I found it annoying that people snort on a train, and then he posted his which I did find abit odd for the reason mentioned before...

Tangled wires, leads and cables!! ARGHHHHHH!:wallbash::wallbash::wallbash:

What is this witchcraft? I swear I’ve wasted more time detangling headphone wires, mic leads and other leads and cables than I have anything else in my life.

How does this happen??? You leave them neatly untangled, come back a few hours later and they’ve merged into some kind of psychedelic London Underground Tube map.

People go on about terrorists, but these feckers are going to strangulate us all one day.

Move the ferkers legs out of the way by dumping yourself down in the seat without asking them to move their legs. Make sure you tread on their feet as well. :D

Modern towels. You need to spend about £140 to get one that actually absorbs water these days. Materials that would be better for drying include:

Skips
Paper
Tarpaulin
Chipboard
Water

I recently emptied the Help for Heroes charity box in our shop and went to pay it in at our local Lloyd’s bank as I’ve done every times it’s become full.

But apparently you can’t do this anymore ‘due to money laundering’ legislation.

The banks solution? Pay the money into my account and then do a BAC’s transfer. :rolleyes: Personally I’m not at all comfortable paying charity money into either my business or private accounts, it just seems wrong.

"The money was just resting in my account."
Father Ted.

How does that solution work if they won't take the cash over the counter?

Was there any difference in acceptance of coins versus folding money?

I don’t have an account at Lloyd’s so I’d have pay it into one of my accounts and then use BACs to transfer it to the HfHs account which is held at Lloyd’s.

It was all folding.

Well quite.

Totally but found out they employed the bloke who was the Man Utd social feed person

loL[emoji38]

That's the great thing about money laundering rules, they cause pain to everyone but money launderers.

Sounds like Trump's wall...

More a question for Blind, but I'm sure we are "only" talking about a couple of hundred quid at the most here... that is going to take a lot of laundering to make the risk worthwhile to a crook! I thought the banks were only concerned when numbers got over 10K (If that's the sum we are talking about here, than I have to say... Well done Blind!)

I don't bother with a towel, just walk around with the willy hanging out until you are just damp, then put clothes on.

but then again I am a strange one.

Oh yes! Bonkers isn't it? You have to wash the bloody things a dozen times before they're anywhere near useful.

What absolute nonsense! If they're happy for the money to arrive in the HfH account they're not actually interested in preventing money laundering at all!

Oh, and if you've no option but to pay the money into one of your accounts then make it the business one. At the end of your tax year you can always offset it as a charitable donation... :D

Drivers who don't indicate at junctions roundabouts etc. selfish gits

Bingo:lux::lux:

People who leave their trolleys in the car park and don't take them back to the bay. Parent and baby users the absolute worst. We need to bring back flogging.

Are you a hermaphrodite ?

Laura Kuenssberg Is she Teresa May’s pr spokesman

no, i'm an aquarius :p

The person next to me who has a cold that just sniffs every ten seconds on a train.

You then realise at least another 4-5 people are doing the same thing and the carriage sounds like a doctors waiting room.

Blow your fecking nose you noisy bastards

I think he also eats meat.

At Streatham now - and the people with colds have been replaced by a couple who seem to be sharing their break up with the whole carriage.

Bumping into a Weed in the pub who kept thanking me for the six points.

Scope out the CCTV camera's first and then....:vader:

My mother had some Fire Safety jerk come round recently who insisted she needed a fire alarm near the cooker. It is a new-fangled one that reacts to cooking smells as well :confused:. Impossible to cook cheese on toast without setting it off. He is long gone and it is coming down.

Which A&E dept did he attend ?

Coming down with a stomach bug just in time for the weekend.

Great stuff

Had yet another one of these this morning. An Uber driver, of course. Three turns in a row with no indication. As it happened, he stopped in the same street as me, so I went over to have a word. I pointed out that my kids walk around these streets, and it helps to know the intentions of drivers. He just looked at me blankly. These people shouldn't be on the roads. Mind you, they are angels in comparison to the f*ckers on delivery mopeds. How are most of them still alive?

Saw him again this evening. I was far too gracious to say mind the gap.

Gary Birtles (again)... He did manage to wait until the second half today before telling us what Brian Clough told him one time.

How does this northern monkey end up working a Palace home game?

Still don't get it. My bank won't take any cash over the counter now, for my account or anyone else's. It's an absolute ballache when you do a lot of activities with older folk, who 99% prefer dealing in old money. That's not a criticism but a reality these banks don't seem to appreciate.

Just stop marching them to the cash point and show them how to transfer their entire account into yours.

:D

Won’t be the same without seeing the terror in their eyes.

Struggling sleeping of late but woke up this morning and looked at my phone and thought ‘5:30’, that’s not bad, I’ll take that...’, then realised the clocks had gone forward so in affect I’ve not had that good a sleep.

My sister wishing our mum happy mother’s day on Facebook and typing my mum’s name in full - my mum is not on Facebook and doesn’t have a pc iPad or smart phone

Isn’t it ridiculous.

I run a few events per year for a charity and up until recently I’d take the cash to the bank and pay it into their account. Paid in promptly at my convenience, and I have a receipt from the bank.

Now they won’t take it from me I have to arrange to meet a member of that charity and hand it over to them as they have the necessary forms that at least allow them to pay it in.

The other alternative they said is to pay it into my personal account and then transfer it to the charity, but I don’t like ‘their’ money coming through my account...it feels potentially dodgy and it’s large sums which could effect my taxes.

As you say, the banks are so painful now.

I’ve had the same problem. Luckily the money is for a local charity, so I ‘only’ have the inconvenience of having the arrange to meet their Treasurer and give her the cash.

In your situation I’d contact Help for Heroes and ask them what they’d like you to do, as they must be experiencing this issue all the time now. There might be advice on their website?

In a similar vein, I recently tried to pay off my mother's Access Card balance of just over £1000. Turned into a nightmare.

1. NatWest refused to accept my Lloyds debit card :confused:. Told me to go to Lloyds.
2. Lloyds told me they thought I needed set up a new payee account and make a payment to them that way.
3. I pointed out the payment instructions to pay by debit card on the back of the banking slip. Person I spoke to was highly dubious.
4. Eventually found a sensible cashier who agreed with my analysis of the details and entered the reference and string of zeros when it asked for an account as per the instructions. Payment went through in full, no problem, 10 days before the due date.
5. Whole lot took just about an hour in the end.

To add insult to aggravation, a new bill arrived a few days ago demanding £7.46 in interest despite the account being settled in full AND before the due date. It further added that if the payment was made in time, the next bill would be for 17p more interest :veryangry.

WTF?? You can ever settle sensibly with these sorts of rules??

One strong phone call later, they agreed to write off the £7.46 "as a gesture of goodwill". It is all on the banks' side. Joe Public doesn't stand a chance. I would write a poem about it if I could think of a rhyme for 'bankers'....

A mate of mine reached the last year of his mortgage and it was down to just a few hundred pounds to finish paying.

So he thought he might as well get it finished with one big payment and spoke to his bank about it. Turns out, they wanted more money from him in ‘admin charges’ for finishing his mortgage early than he owed them!

They wouldn’t budge so he said, stuff you then, you can keep collecting £50 a month in direct debit from me for another year and then we’ll finish the mortgage bang on time with no early redemption fee thanks very much.

So the bank lost the opportunity to receive all their money early in preference for the tiny amount of interest they’d receive on his £50/month.

Sort of had the same scenario. I believe it's standard practice and there in the small print (or was mine anyway). I did the same and just let it run its course until the end.

As much as I love this time of year (Spring is in the air etc.) it is really annoying that the pollen has started arriving and with it my nose just drips all day long... I'm like a bloody healthy dog!

Same here mate. Was out in Edinburgh woods for work last week and the old itchy, streaming eyes started with abundance. Strangely, when I was in Sacramento, my hay fever didn’t make an appearance once. :confused:

Odd that. Sacramento being a pretty agricultural area and all. Maybe not the trees though which really get me.

People are affected by different pollen aren’t they. My mum’s hay fever is worse in Feb March when certain trees start to pollinate. Mine hits bad in July when the grass pollen is at its height. But I never ever get it when I’m abroad

Hay fever is the main reason I have summer as my least favourite season

People who spend most of their lives in a smartphone. Videos about cats. Large queues. Rap. Politicians. Inadequate rules and laws. Bureaucracy. Injustice. Modern filmmaking. It’s a countless list.

That's a good point, we are surrounded by Sycamore trees and at this time of year they give off this yellow pollen dust that covers everything in the back and front yard. I feel like I'm snorting yellow cocaine!

When back in England a few years back my wife and I went for a walk through some fields and she went into full allergy mode, while it didn't seem to affect me at all.

I did a wee bit of gardening in the fine weather yesterday, turning over the soil in the flower beds and pulling a few weeds. Nothing too hectic.
Today I'm greeted by cat shit in 2 different places where I turned the soil. I've got young kids so this drives me f***ing apeshit and it stinks.

I've sprinkled some dangerously hot chilli powder on the soil so if it happens again, moggy's teeth will fall out when it licks it's feet to clean up. Any other suggestions to stop it happening in the first place please?
Lion shit doesn't work. I've tried.

Ok anyone know if you can suddenly “get” Hay fever. I’ve had a cold since I came back from the alps at half term in Feb! It’s very odd. runny nose, sneezing when waking up then better but still there with the odd sneeze and itchy nose during the day. If it is I’m going to be verynpissed off at surviving 59 years then bloody getting it

A dog

When they eventually catch it and tear it to shreds it won’t be your fault. It pisses me off that if my dog crapped on the neighbours lawn he would soon be jumping up and down but cats ???? “Oh what can I do?” STICK A CORK UP ITS ARSE or get a litter tray

Have you never had it before? Mine died down for 24 years and now has flared up for the past couple of years.

My suspicion is that climate change and the fact our seasons are now all over the place has contributed to our allergic sensitivities being knocked out of balance.

I didn't have it up to 15, then it suddenly started. I got it really badly.

When I was 20, I lived in Germany for a year (having looked up the German for hayfever), but absolutely nothing.

Came home, it restarted with a vengeance, all through my finals, and continued right up to 2001 and my first heart attack, then strangely it went.

These days, I sometimes get a little bit of sneezing and runny nose, much like yourself, but nothing much really.

Weird.
