Little Things that Irk You 4Ever

I wish I was rich so I could smoke weed in first class and refer to everyone as peasants.

Maybe I'll give it a try on the 171 bus home tonight.

I've just found out that they recently dropped the max value of a purchase before tax/customs from ?19 to ?15, & my order came to ?15.45. Just got a Royal Mail form requesting a charge for tax (?3.11) & a customs fee of ?8 for 'Royal Mail Services', making a total of ?11.11 which is more than what the shipping cost!!

Absolute ***kin joke!! Have emailed the company to see if they can do something for me. If not I've got a good mind to just leave it there & have it sent back.

Robbing basts!!

People that use microwaves for things like heating soup or baked beans.

That's just wrong! You need to do things like that on the hob, so you can keep stirring it, ensuring that you don't get that manky film over the top.

" The echoes of 80s films*Short Circuit*and*RoboCop*also resonate just as loudly in*Chappie?s opening moments as they did in the film?s promo trailers.

But Blomkamp?s liberal borrowing from those films only serves as a jumping-off point for something more unique: it?s part*sci-fi action film, part crime thriller, part existential drama"

Amen, brother. The hob makes the water evaporate, too, which thickens them.

yeah i thought it looked like a combination of Short Circuit & the new Robocop

Short Circuit without the racism!

[Dogg Thang]

The marketing of Chappie has been so inconsistent, I actually have no idea what type of film it actually is. The only constant is the terrible, terrible name.

But Fisher Stevens made up to be Indian was what that movie was all about!!

Gave in & paid the charges, only to find that both items that I ordered (Xbox One Controller Shells) have scuffs & marks on them, as if they've been sanded down on the edges & this has faded the colour in those areas.

Now having to send the company another message regarding this damage

[k0pp0]

Cocked something up at work, still miffed about it.

[kryss]

Don't worry about it, these things happen. We're always harder on ourselves most.

Thanks.. ooodles of pressure at the moment with a project trying to deliver in miniscule timescales. Managed to come up with a solution to my cock up though but only managed to up stress levels today by having a courier not deliver 2 servers, then when I get home I light the wood burner and it goes mental and sets the fire place alight. Had to get the fire brigade out to check everything over whilst dealing with an irate project manager.

The way to learn things is by getting things wrong. Unless it's life or death....
At school you are taught you have to get everything right first time, but the really successful people are those who repeatedly fail but never give up until they get it right by learning what went wrong and improving something.
