What cheeses me off

[TheRealTMA]

WCMO is when watching Bathurst motor racing on 7 they overlay bloody horse racing and you miss the action. They have other channels FFS put the nags somewhere else.

This is self inflicted.

Sat in SQ A350 economy BKK-SIN for a 2 hour flight. Im big. Could not get comfortable. Tried sitting back in seat and kept getting thrown forward. (Awful seats and don't understand why all airlines are getting these stupid seats)

This was followed by SQ A380 economy SIN-SYD. Chalk and cheese. I really miss the 747s and A380 economy. The rest don't come close.

P.S. Slept most of A380 flight.

This really cheesed me off. I was standing on the stone bridge over the Danube in Regensburg just after sunset trying to take some photos with my phone, which I don't normally do. There was a lady with her bike stationary and leaning against the wall talking on her mobile. She said something in German to me, I thought maybe she wants me to take her picture, oh no. She accused me straight up of taking a photo of her and demanded I delete it. I said you have to be joking, why would I take her photo. She insisted on me showing her the shots, which did prove I had done nothing of the sort.
I told her she was paranoid and should go and talk to someone, sigh, too many nutters out there

 

[SuePa]

too many nutters out there

Agreed, but that could also be part of the reason she is paranoid.

Ex DIL doesn't take any risks of the children being captured on the internet. Including not having him in the annual class photos. Sigh.

I remember one year during the Melbourne Test match (Christmas one), we'd watched it, as we do, for five days. Came to the last over with both teams having a crack at winning. Channel 9 flicked to an ad before the last ball bowled. That ball decided the test. Everyone watching missed it.

Can't say I miss Kerry Packer in charge of Channel 9 who didn't mind last minute changes to programming so he could watch the cricket or whatever else he wanted.

He also dragged that premiere of the foul programme half way through. I thought my TV tuning was playing up at the time.

Hazmat suit on. In some circles I cannot call myself a woman but a cis-female. Who knew what turned out to be acceptable?

I had to google what this meant the first time this happened. I'm female. End of story. Now when I get that question I use the 'prefer not to say' if that's an option.

I wonder what the Census will ask?

UK National Trust is now putting Vegan Tampon Dispensers in the mens toilets alonside the urinals.

I have no words.

Sugar free and Zero sugar are not the same. Totally different taste.

Wish Coles and Woolworths do not consider substituting one for the other.

And yes I do check substitutions not allowed but they still don't care.

Leave it to J K Rowling

Leave it to J K Rowling

I have seen an excellent quote from Baroness Margaret Thatcher on the subject' Priceless.
I think it might be considered political so I refrain from posting it.

 

[JohnK]

Compelled speech.

Sit back and allow the minority to control what is and isn't acceptable. The Borg hive mentality can become reality if we let it.

Freedom of speech should always take precedence but we have turned everything political and off limits for any meaningful discussion.

The thing that really cheeses me off, is that I allow things like this to circulate in my brain, going round and around, overthinking it and letting it consume my thoughts.......... me paranoid? Nah...

Search Google "Liverpool F.C news" and 7 stories appear on the women's team with a button to click on more stories.

So then search "Liverpool F.C news mens" and same 7 stories appear on the women's team with a button to click on more stories.

Oh FFS. I'm not interested in women's football. They should call the womens team something totally unrelated to the real Liverpool F.C team.

You didn't accidentally click the "Women's football" tab, which when you click on news returns articles about the women's team? When looking for news on anything I omit the word news and switch to the news section. Same here, as long as the "Men's football" tab is highlighted switching to news tab returns only news about the men's team.
