Temporary traffic lights on College Road since the last months..
On the plus side it looks like they are removing speed humps in Dulwich.. unless they will reinstate them after repairs

The arrogant ****ers.

No not yet but then we dont have girl scouts really either. Oreos are shit.

Cold spots after heating stuff in the microwave for four minutes. What's it fvcking doing in there?

You've done this one before Art, I think you may need a new microwave :).

It IS a new microwave. :sob:

Now that is annoying :(.

Well the radiation has to stay somewhere.

I remember testing this at school: put a bowl of water in a microwave and heat until it is just about boiling around the edge... now stick your finger in the water. Because of how the radiation heats, the centre of the bowl will still be cool enough that it won't burn you. Cool, huh?

*NB: If you **** it up and get burnt, not my fault.

There are plenty of girls in the scouts. They are just scouts though.

Oreos are shit.

We still have brownies and girl guides and all that shit though, right?

(Guess I need to know this for when daughter reaches such an age)

Yep.My daughter was in them for a while.

This but pancakes.

People making them too thick, too undercooked, putting absolute shite in them.

Make your pancakes properly people and if you don't, don't expect me to compliment them.

Oh, that's annoying.

This message was brought to you from the crepe society.

Surely thickness is a personal preference? But yes, not cooking them correctly and putting all kinds of shit like nutella on them is terrible.

Pancakes on pancake day lemon and sugar thats it

This annoys me. It's Shrove Tuesday, not "Pancake Day".

OTF.

I don't give a shit what you call it, just don't tell my kids.

Pancake tits.

That sort of comment sticks right in my galette.

That so many of the great London music and theatre venues have disappeared, some to be replaced by inferior buildings. The Donmar and Almeida theatres, Dingwalls, The White Horse in Hampstead, The Astoria, Hammersmith Palais, the Clarendon, the Bull & Gate, Kilburn National, The Rainbow, The Mean Fiddler, The George Robey, Madam Jojo's,The Marquee, The Diorama, The Cricketers, the Windsor Castle, Bagley's. So many. London is poorer for that.
'Saving London's music venues'? You're a bit f*cking late, Mayor Khan.

'Trophy location'. F*ck off, Savills.

This advert really is the pits. Why the **** would a house be on a beach? It is possibly the last place you'd want a house!

What advert?
Haven't seen it.

Power point presentations.

I agree, Keynote is much better ;)

People swearing. Most specifically using the f and c word full in the knowledge that they were in hearing of young children

Agreed - the selfish fvcking ****s

People that can't circumvent the swear filter properly.

Valentines Day. If you're single you feel miserable, if you're in a relationship you have to fork out a fortune for some rubbish flowers/chocolate/restaurant. A pointless day to keep card companies in business.

Shit, cheers for reminding me. Was about to play golf.

Agreed with the wife that we wouldn't spend any money or make any effort on Valentine's Day. So happy days.

Unless of course it's a trick...

Its a trick alright. You are in so much trouble.;)

If you like chocolate there are discounted chocolates available in a few hours

Surely if you're single it's a prime night to go out bag yourself a bit of skirt? Talking to a lad in the office, he's on a blind date tonight and if she's anything less than an 8 out of 10, he'll see who else is floating around.

Bought my wife a card and two bars of chocolate, total cost €3, she was very happy. It is what you make it.

Blimey, you did well. Mine was a card, a box from Hotel Chocolat and a gift card from Molton Brown. Mind you, I did get 3 boxes of HC chocs from her and the two cats.

No cards here, no need to kill the planet more than I already do.

We both know that he'll be home watching porn by 10pm.

I got the wife **** all, she got me **** all. It's nice when you are first in a relationship etc but after a few years you realise what it is. Will go for a meal and a maybe a night away at the end of the month when things aren't so expensive.


No wonder I don't get any....:D

Still, not a bad Valentines night is it...

My card was made from recycled paper, as are many nowadays, so thats one of your excuses out the window.

I always though valentines day was supposed to be about secret admirers, not the existing couples give me a present/meal/hotel thing it's turned into. People should be sending anonymous cards to single friends to add a bit of excitement to their day. Oh, and two or more to their partner if they have one to see if they fess up... ;)

No just like everything else Valentines Day has now been hi jacked by the money making machine, helped along by facebook etc people all trying to out do each other and have perfect lives. (Not too bitter am I?)

To be fair, valentines day is probably outdated in it's concept, men buying roses for the woman. Being expected to organise/pay for dinner. Maybe in this era of equality, it should be my wife running me a bath, treating me to dinner and pestering me for sex?

Everything is covered in snow now here so valentines day has done me a bit of a favour. Would have probably been as far from the clubhouse as its possible to be by now.

Well that was a misunderstanding. Watch this and tell me it's not annoying.

A tree still died, dude.

Chocolates? It's not f*cking Easter.

Thats shit

The (new?) expression "throw shade"

WTF is that all about?

Just a normal day then - cough, splutter ........

To make someone happy, a great sacrifice. I hope, given your feelings, that you have no wood based products around your palatial residences.

Actually faceache is a great way to spot people who got a valentines and those who didn´t. :)

Try telling the supermarkets that.

I got a card hidden in me work bag:love::love:

and 'finishing' before you....
;)

What did your mum write?
;)

Get yourself some orange golf balls man!

A little snow shouldn't stop a round of golf.

I know mate, I would have gone if someone hadn't mentioned valentines day.

Nothing,she died 2 years ago,

Waiting for you to stir it halfway through cooking.

At least he recycles. Chocolate is a gift, gifts are given on occasions, Easter has nothing to do with chocolate. Amen.

Every year I have received a valentines card from a secret admirer but this year nothing.
First my gran dies now this.

Spent today making sharing/tearing breads, chocolate cheesecakes, brownies, truffles, cherry mousse, cherry jellies and cherry ice cream for 36 couples. I hope it gets someone laid.

:D

Lol :supergrin:

See also: the campaign to keep The Half Moon in Herne Hill a pub followed by little effort to ensure it stayed a live music venue.

'Share if you are the proud parent of a rescue pet'....

If so, you are a biological anomaly, and there's no reason to be proud to have parented a child that licks its own arse.

Do Palace fans really give a toss about Zaha getting his hair cut?

Palace fans thinking a piece made for BBC Africa is just about them

I agree. But who funds BBC Africa? The BBC is either advertiser funded or its not. UKTV (Dave, UKGold etc) is apparently BBC and they have adverts.

Scrap the license.

UKTV is part BBC-owned. And the deal was done by BBC Enterptises, whose mission is precisely to realise the value of BBC assets, so as to relieve the pressure on the licence (note spelling!) fee. They are therefore saving all of us money.

A bit ironic therefore that they should be used as an argument to abolish the fee.

What the **** are you babbling on about?

It's now 19:39. Last post on the thread before this was at 9:00. Hasn't anyone got anything to be annoyed about today?

I was calm all day until a 'bzzzzzzzzzzz' in my earhole woke me up at 330am. **** OFF YOU MOSQUITO **** :veryangry

Thread bumps ;)

:supergrin:

People who post the same thing on several threads endlessly

Painting - in term of decorating! The most monotonous pile of crap around. How anyone can do it for a living and enjoy is beyond me. Prep, masking up and then painting - dull. Every f—king night the week I’ve done a few hours and now in bed with back pain - bastards!

The ‘Rainbow Bridge’.

Goals being described as 'Worldies'

Never heard of this is it an lgbta thing?

No, it's a heart-warming piece of flowery prose meant to explain to children where pets go after they die. It's digital, and usually presented on a backdrop image of a bridge and a rainbow. It's the sort of crap people post on Facebook.

The version I read (I google imaged it) had an apostrophe in the possessive form of "its", which was quite annoying.

Ok, that’s quite annoying dying pets is a good way of preparing kids for lifes disappointments.

Depends what colour surely. If it's a bright pink it could give them a false impression of life ahead.

:supergrin:

The way women use the term "man flu" as if they don't milk every ******* illness going.

Absolutely yes!

The women in our office are always going on about this, whenever they are ill they come in and moan like hell for a day before dropping to deaths door and being unable to come in for the next 2 (maximum before back to work interviews kick in!) yet the blokes in the office always seems to struggle in and never take a day off for colds.

Yet the second we make a comment about feeling rough or having a cold it's Manflu and we're acting like babies :wallbash:

Can't remember the last time I had a day off for a genuine illness! Most of my days off are because I can't be bothered with the journey so have a lie in and end up working from home anyway!

there now being a Costa in South Norwood. **** the man, support local business innit (the new place outside the station is good)

A lady at my work place the other day had to leave before the end of her shift (that had to be covered by someone else) because her adult daughter's dog was having seizures.

My question for the BBS, in the interest ofequality is this - would this fly if a man used this tenuous reason on compassionate grounds, or would he be laughed at? Are there any male members of the BBS who would (or have) be so bold as to use such an excuse to leave work? I feel it's also a problem for male bosses, who fear being labelled uncaring bastards.

If it was my dog, then I'd do what I had to.

But someone in my family? GTFO. You bought the stupid creature, you deal with it.

It's also why I no longer have pets :D

Deleted.

[Just seen your later post]

Hopefully nothing to do with rainbow parties

Maybe the daughter doesn’t drive and the mother is the best person to help?

I don’t have a big problem with this scenario, though would lose a bit of sympathy if it was a regular occurrence.

It would also be an appropriate gesture if the person who left early either worked longer on another day to make up for it, or covered a shift for the person who had to work longer to cover for their absence.

A bit of give and take at work is wise, in my experience. Whether the person is a man or woman is irrelevant.

Microsoft Word (specifically the formatting logic)

Probably the shittiest piece of unfathomable software ever written.

I haven’t made a later post.:confused:
