Grrr at people who think they "stick it to the man" (as those comical yanks say) by not using BT.  For example:

Quote

I would never get broadband from BT.  I haven't given them a penny since they took 6 weeks to install my phone line in 1985.  I'm with Plusnet.

That's Plusnet — a wholly owned subsidiary of BT Group PLC.

My neighbor just asked me why my brother has my name on the non-believer's prayer list at his church (which the neighbor used to go to until the gossips destroyed his relationship with his wife).   My brother has never asked me what I believe, but he presumes that he has permission to ask his his devil worship church to pray for me!

I wonder if he meant what's the psychology of it. 

I wouldn't know why some people prefer crazy hair and others are repulsed by it. 

I can find the man repulsive, and still have difficulty looking away from his crazy hair.

Maybe Boris and Donald belong to some kind of crazy hair club.

Christmas tv commercials.  

 

Mummy and daddy are stone cold sober...yeh, that's true to life.

Spotless dining and living rooms which look like it's the first time they have been lived in.

Everyone wearing clothing that's clearly brand new.  Even the plates look like they've just been ripped out of box.

The abligatory Jim and Doris sat there enjoying the delights of an xbox with the child actor.

Adverts on video streaming services.  Just imagine if you had water shooting out of a burst mains pipe under your sink. The "you" tube vid on how to deal with it won't even start until you've watched a 25 second video for cat meat...grrr

An acronym is an abbreviation that forms a word.

FBI is pronounced "F.B.I."

whereas.....

NATO is pronounced "nato" , not "N.A.T.O."

All acronyms are abbreviations, but not all abbreviations are acronyms.

RSPCA is an abbreviation;

RoSPA is an acronym, with the "o" there to make it a speakable word.

Games consoles in how they take hours to install a game.  Talk about taking a step backwards but I can remember home computers with cassettes and they took ages too.  So you wouldn't think right now in the 21st century that a new game often means starting installation, going to work, coming home and finding the installs on 83%.

Right, I was about to tell you about last night's hot water bottle debacle but the phone just rang and that gave me another reason to GRRR!

The phone call: me: 'Hello?' . . . foreign call centre scam woman: 'Hello?' . . . . me: 'Hello?' . . . fccsw: 'Hello? Is that Mrs. A? . . . me: 'What's this about?' . . . fccsw: ' Hello, Mrs.A. are you having a good day today?' . . . . me: 'What is this about?' . .  . fccsw: 'How has your day been so far?' . . . . longish pause while I try to think of something to say . . . fccsw starts yelling, and I do mean yelling, she didn't just raise her voice a little: ' Speak up! Speak UP! SPEAK UP!!!'. I put the receiver down. :angry: I think she must be the wife of the man who has done this to me twice recently. Once, he actually phoned me back and asked why I'd put the phone down :o!!. It's come to something when the scam artists start screaming at you when you won't play along with them. It's quite unsettling. GRRR! :angry:

So, the hot water bottle thing :hmm:: 11:45p.m. I approach my bed, ready for a good night's sleep. I grab my pj top from the top of the hot water bottle and put it on. I grab my pj bottoms . . . only to discover they are absolutely soaked through! Water is dripping off them! :o There was an actual puddle which, before I could gather my thoughts, soaked into the pillow, the sheet, the mattress topper, mattress and duvet cover. I had to strip the bed completely and sleep on a pile of towels. Double GRR!! :angry: :( :cry:

Going to a website to read an article and like 10 different ads open up plus 5 video's at the same time which makes it impossible for you to read the article and often makes your browser non-responsive resulting in crashing :(

I wish the national weather forecasters would stop saying "Snow over northern hills".  I always hear it as "Malvern Hills" and suddenly go "Sorry what pardon? What was that? Eh? Is it gonna snow?"

I wish!  I feel like doing something to the two little monsters called Bradley and jack right now.  Together they are like a box of matches and petrol.  Add the snow outside to this mix and Sunday is nice and tiresome.

You should visit Redditch!

The male Worcestershire natives (as opposed to the Brummie overspill crowd) all have distinctive Osram lightbulb heads.
