Things That Annoy Me, But Shouldn't

I am upset. I was accused of just “playing” on my computer, but the accuser was playing on her phone and made a mistake. It is okay for her to play but apparently it is not okay for me.

 

EMP their phone, that way they have an expensive brick.

 

Microwaving a lightbulb will cause it to glow brilliantly - until it explodes.

 

The way my co-workers greet one another by saluting. Most go for the casual, half-hearted style but the more annoying ones do the full-on standing to attention version.

I imagine they think it’s quirky/funny/cool, but I think it makes them look like knobheads.

 

Where do you work?

 

@OurJud job - REME 2 Para SAS/adjunct SIGNALS Aldershot NAAFI etc...
...
And if you were French you’d have to kiss each other, even legionnaires AND at least it’s not the fist pump AND apparently there are no real squaddies in the mix - who might become super-paralegic, offended, pride-affected, baulking at toy soldier misapprehension of different US/UK salutes, and angles, and pin badges and pensions. Not as bad as coppers but same tribe, don’t tell them my address. Run.

 

It’s a division of the council (need I say more?) responsible for maintaining green spaces.

 

My roommate annoys me. She can sit around doing nothing and it is okay. If I try to some writing or art on the computer, I am just playing around.

 

‘Maintenance’ always rather grubby in council circles. ‘Leisure Services’ is more elevated in my opinion/public facing, not just picking up dog crap.

 

Well I don’t pick up dog crap so let’s call it the latter.

18763 steps today.

 

S’ok, I was having a ‘joke for one’...moment. Let’s not have any more talk of dog crap.

<11,000...with bike ride to come ...probably requires antidote 11% Polish beer @ 6pm, plus ‘World at War’ on the Yesterday channel, recovery hour.

 

And I was so proud of my today's 16 131 steps.

(This month average until now 14 295. But I suppose it will drop.)

 

I cannot get free food anymore from work. If I had some extra funds, I could buy something but my rent is too freaking high and my paycheck barely covers it.

 

Billboards in train stations that aren't vandalized. C'mon people, draw some funny mustaches on some actresses face. It's the randomness of it all that makes it so funny to me.

 

Being dragged on errands with no explanation or anything other than got to go on this errand.

 

We've got it, you're on errands and you don't want to be. No need to post about it in every thread in the forum.

 

Is that the planting flags philosophy?

Just putting them everywhere for the concept of
simply planting them everywhere.

 

Grapeshot maybe.

 

Normally, I don't care what other people do with their lives but one thing I've commonly seen stirs up annoyance: Why, if you cannot afford contraceptives, do some think they can afford a child?

 

I apologize.

 

No better contraceptive?

 

While waiting in the doctors office for my vasectomy, I watched that video. Laughter rushed through me, the nurses all watched with confusion as I roared with tears in my eyes. What came to mind?

"That'll never be me. Fucking e'll, that bloke e'll never be me!"

And I couldn't stop laughing. Doctor asked if they gave me the "good stuff" already, to which they all shook their heads. Whoever started vasectomies on humans needs a fucking hand shake and some beer.
