Today I am ****ed off with ..........

1) Chav pondlife staggering/bowling around the High street half cut shouting obscenities at people….at lunchtime.
2) Woman sitting on a bench outside Virgin trying to stamp on pigeons whilst screaming “*unts” at them….in front of her young kids.
3) Getting a passport renewal form and seeing it will cost me £72 quid - Even if you want to leave this country it comes at a cost!

Really? Oh b**locks. Mine's up for renewal soon, another load of money to shell out :(

In terms of annoyances, a perennial one is people who dawdle up to the entry gate at the tube station and then - and only then! - decide to start hunting for their Oyster card.

Never mind, I didn't fancy getting that tube anyway. I much prefer hanging around on the platform for another five minutes. :guns:
 
I need to get a new passport but at the moment I can't be bothered until I find out whats happening with my knee, anyway £72 is taking the ****!

Oh yeah my knee thats whats hacking me off today! :(

Show them no mercy, Jacozinho. Drop the shoulder, and then (as any rugby forward would shout) "Drive!".

:finger:
 
The 3 things that hacked me off at work today are:

1. I hate where I work with a passion

2. I hate where I work with a passion

3. I hate where I work with a passion

nuff said!!
 
Its only 9.45 and already im hacked off by

1. Joggers that run in the road when there is a perfectly good, flat pavement with no other pedestrians on it to get in the way - why do they do that, anyone know?!

2. People that seem to do their weekly food shop at the petrol garage while everyone else is queuing behind them waiting to use the pump

3. People that pull out of a turning in front of you at the last minute and then dawdle along at about haf the speed limit

Bloody Sunday drivers :flamer:

Especially today......oh hang on....:p

And if you intend to fly it will cost far more than that. Airline tickets prices are not too expensive, but look at how much tax you have to pay
 
1) 20s couple on train with parents - 20s couple displaying the sort of behaviour teenagers would be ashamed of. Surprise ! They got off at Wickford.

2) 30s something man on train sending texts with keypad tones still on - WTF !

3) Commuters - much like myself :p too British to do anything about 1 and 2

If I can squeeze a 4th in I'd add runners that jog on the spot when they can't cross the road. Why?

To keep the blood flowing, and stop the body needing to stop start of course :p

You are spot on with Number 3.
I hate those pr!cks, normally old farts as well.

Why pull out like you're in a rush when the only appointment you're likely to have is with the local Undertaker.....:finger:

You think thats bad? What about missing the number 1 bus from Benfleet, waiting 40 minutes for another, then 3 turn up at once, I get to the number 7 from Rayleigh 3 minutes after it's just gone, and have to wait another half an hour for the next one in the brisk wind. My total travel home that day was 2 hours.

I bet the detour to colchester didn't help either did it?
 
3 things that have hacked me off all weekend:

1. My husband having man flu, and being totally unable to think for himself that sometimes, just sometimes, medication DOES help as does eating and drinking the right stuff!

2. My husband having man flu, and falling asleep on the settee all afternoon both days instead of going back to bed!

3. My husband having man flu, nicking all the duvet, coughing and keep getting up to go to the loo hence depriving me almost completely of sleep!

As you can see, I'm not too hot on sympathy, but that's because as we all know, women just GET ON WITH IT! Rant over, calm and peace returns as he's just gone to work and it's half term so the kids are still asleep.:)
 
Surely that's precisely why it is called MAN flu. Women are immune to this normally because the initial infection gains access through immobile jaw movements. :D



I should add that Mrs ORM has had the lurgy for a few days and battled through womanfully. Had that have been me I would have been off work and on the death bed, except for a miraculous window of health around 1pm on Saturday. :p
 
It's a scientific fact, proved by some Russian bloke in a white coat, that due to the XY chromosome in men, what may be a sniffle to a bird, is actually a debilitating disease that would bring down an elephant with a really big trunk.

You think child birth is tough? Ha, try a dose of XY man flu, then you'll be begging to be up the spout again!

Cricko has just emailed me to ask me to add that you should keep your knickers on and make him a cup of tea.....
 
I've had my porridge and a second cup of tea and now feel quite mellow again. I'm just thankful he decided to go to work today! Oh, and tell Cricko I'm sure he knows where the kettle is!

I'm curious to know, are you all completely helpless when you're ill? And for the record, I quite enjoyed my experiences of child birth, I was so high on gas and air both times that I laughed through about 90% of it - especially when they tried to put me on a drip and missed and I had blood shooting out of the back of my hand! Amazing really, when it feels like you're trying to pass a water melon - or is that too much for you squeamish types at this time in the morning?!
