|2-General Gubbins... |1-Everyday experiences of a Scener... Various People get shirty! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I went into The Computer Store in Sxxxxxxxxx this week cos' I needed a new mouse rather desperately. I picked one up (Logic Speedmouse 3) and asked the assistant "What's the resolution of this mouse, luv?". She looked at me as if I'd just asked her to combine Einstein's Theory of Relativity with Darwin's theory of Evolution to explain aliens, in short she didn't have a clue... Don't you just love people who know absolutely nowt about the products they're selling? Needless to say I dug out my Switch card and went hunting through the mail order pages... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do you know what makes ME really mad? When I ask people if they want a crisp, and they take 2... Yeah, that really annoys me as well mate, and people who put salt on their chips by drawing a bloody spiral with the salt-shaker, ooooh, that makes me bloody mad, that does. De do do dat doe don't de? Aye, dat de do. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No Frills Beans, eh? You know, the only thing wrong with No Frills Beans is that if, by some weird chance, you get a bad tin of 'em, you can't be arsed to walk back to the shop and demand another! I mean, who in their right mind (SIT DOWN PEX!) would take a 7p can of beans back to complain? Not me, that's fer sure... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Another one that gets on my tits is those people who, when pouring something from a jug, feel the need to lift said container about three feet above their bloody heads! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ That Ryan Giggs annoys me you know, in that poxy "Quorn Burgers" advert. I mean, we know he's a bloody poncy footballer so why does he have to prat about spinning the ball on his finger, and at the bloody DINNER TABLE as well! My dad would have given me a thick ear and sent me to bed for doing that, he would an' all! Why dun't he just say: "I'm Ryan Giggs, I play football, I like Quorn Burgers, buy 'em cos they're dead good, right? Cheers.". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Another advert that really get's my domesticated farmyard animal is that shite from the Jobcentre, you know the one, all them there people on that big ramp, suddenly sprouting wings and that. If it were that bloody easy to gerra job I'd have me own pair on order before you could say "Look out below!". Wonder what happens when they run out of bricks...? And who the bloody hell was building the poxy bridge anyway? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I hate boeder-brand (broderbund?) high-density disks from Escom, not the el cheapos that work bloody 100% perfect thank you very much Mr. Escom I'll have a couple of hundred of those please, but the lovely moderately expensive jobbies that don't bloody work in two of my three diskdrives! I wouldn't mind but I can't even write to them in my internal drive, and only my creaky old Roctec (from me A500 days) will entertain 'em! ------------------------------------------------------------------------
