I hate

This is a new low bar for hatred.

You wait til you realise that the bar in that ^ sentence isn't actually a real bar. Man you gonna spit fucking feathers.

Not actually feathers, mind.

If I were to walk out into the street and ask a rando for an iPhone charger, they’d either have one or they wouldn’t, but they’d understand what I was talking about.

If I were to do the same, except ask for an iPhone mains adapter, I’d draw blank stares from almost everyone.

Ergo, they are chargers.

While that is logical and sensible and everything it still annoys me.

Huge ‘Big Ben is actually the name of the bell’ vibes about this.

I stood next to Big Ben at midday once. Amazing, you really do feel it. Hassle an MP or Lord for tickets.

This fancy steamer, is it a kettle?

Big Ben is actually the name of the bell

Things people call chargers that aren't chargers

Maybe a 'realisation' thread would be good for things like this? I like them.

You know Frankenstein is the name of the doctor

just read that anti-fascit shit. Big lol. Oh yeah those anti-fascists taking over social media, attacking anyone they deem different, putting together hate mobs that attack people in real life, oh no wait...that's the fascists.

My partner seems to have an inability to close the damn freezer, almost every time she's taken something out I'll find it a couple of 2cm open a while later. And of course by then it won't really close again because of all the new ice in the way, and guess who has to deal with it.

maybe take up the offer

Any child of the 1940s or 1950s can remember the days their moms defrosted the freezer.

“Only Westinghouse Frost-Free Dares To Offer You A 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee,” said an advertisement on Page 15 in The Canton Repository on Sept. 12, 1951. “We’re so dead sure you’ll agree that Westinghouse Frost-Free is the world’s finest completely automatic refrigerator that we’ll make you this amazing proposition: If, within 30 days after you buy a Westinghouse Frost-Free Refrigerator from us, you’re not 100% satisfied, we’ll take it back and refund your full purchase price. It con’t cost you a cent — no delivery or removal charge, absolutely nothing.”

Just had an assessment for a job: was given 120 minutes to write a briefing. My gf bought the cheapest laptop at carphone warehouse two years ago and has been adamant about not wanting to upgrade or any more electronics in the house. I ready-boosted the thing with a 4Gb USB, kept my browser tabs to the minimum (it was still a lot), and cleared cookies etc before the assessment.

Fcking thing froze on me repeatedly. I estimate I lost between 14-16 minutes of screen time, mostly at the end when I was actually writing the report and couldn’t use my phone. I don’t think I’ll get the job.

Devil take me, I’m buying a laptop. Any good deals?

(before I catch flak, if it’s not clear I Hate this … laptop; I’m not going to complain about my relationship)

Dell have a refurbed section for cheaper options.

Technically it's the nickname for the bell which is actually just called the Great Bell

Could be - there's a risk what they call space rock is really post rock

Can't really articulate why but listening to this has really boosted my mood. Thanks!

back home someone (with a residents permit for a different bay) parked in my GFs space and left their car in there for 2 days. if not parked in the correct bay the shitehawks the tenants assoc. gave free reign to ticket as they please are allowed to ticket even with a residents permit. luckily they didn't patrol during that time or the idiots would have gotten both of us a ticket that would have been impossible to contest. I'm down at my mums so GF had to put note on there as this shit needs nipping the bud immediately before they decide its acceptable practice but stressed her out as our flat no is on the bay and being home alone she didn't want some angry dickhead going off at her if they turn out to be complete cunt instead of just a stupid one.

meanwhile here at my mums, the van in the photo has been parked across my mums living room window since yesterday morning. there's a small residents car park with 4 spaces and all the marked bays are away from the building (to stop exactly this from happening) so he is parked in the room used for pulling in/out of the bays. unfortunately the housing assoc. have workmen here all the time and they will park there for a couple of hours while they get shit done (or double park around the corning blocking my mum from being able to get out of her disabled bay in her car) so this normalises it in the eye of the tenants upstairs. but how can you be such a dense enough prick to think that it's fine to park your box van right across anyone's windows like that and just leave it there for multiple days. there's on street parking just around the corner but you need either a permit or to pay. sadly the parking enforcement company for this building isn't even based in the area so odds of anyone getting a ticket are minimal.

tldr; I hate entitled/stupid pricks who park where they shouldn't

and yes those birds above the window are upside down. my mother is mental.

I posted a wanted thread and got a few good inbox deals that I didn't take. Stuff is around.

Your a bell

Yer

Thanks @DethBeard and @psg1ben for the buying tips.

I hate being fined for parking outside of my own house, because the neighbour put their bin in front of a road works sign on the pavement so we didn’t see it. To add insult to injury, I could’ve easily moved our car but instead I spent my morning doing my best to land a job with the sweet sounds of jackhammering going on outside my window.

Not my day today.

I still hate people who park like complete cunts

Van now on 3rd day of blocking any light into living room window of my mums disabled flat because it's not been moved. note how they've gone completely out of their way to not inconvenience the other drivers in the car park whilst completely ignoring the effect on the person directly impacted.

Let down the tyres to let more light in?

I don't suppose the windows open outwards?
