The grumpy thread

[eddyramrod]

They have no patience, no manners, no respect for anyone not physically part of their own body. And all the money, sadly. So they think they can do what they like and very often they can. It's an attitude that's spreading like a weed across the world. I've always been the bloke who avoids a confrontation, I don't see why we can't all just get along... until I meet one of these wankers. Which happens all too often these days.

If you see him again at the pumps, back tyour car up to within 2 cms of his front bumper, then go and do your weekly shop at the kiosk

On SUnday as I was leaving Birmingham, I pulled at my local petrol station to fill up. For some reason it was quite busy but then I spotted a pump that was free. Just as I pulled up some twat in a new Land Rover Discovery was backing up to the pump I just pulled into. He stopped, but then continued to reverse, as if to say 'get out of my way' I refused to move. I sat there thinking about it;

 

1. I could stay there and fill my car up with the risk this dicksplash would get out of car and start on me, to which I'd just douse him in petrol and set him alight/hit him with my steering lock bar.

 

2. Move out of his way and avoid having to assualt the cock as I need to get somewhere.

 

Sadly I took option 2 and moved, flicked him a few v-signs, called him a twat. Should have stood my ground, but I'm not violent person by nature, but I tell you, I'm increasingly tempted to twat some of these areses.

 

Why the fuck must I encounter twats like these. What is it with people today? Have they no patience? Why do people feel that they are bigger/better than you because they own something bigger/newer eh?

 

Should have took the 'Hirst' option and hosed the cunt down.

 

 

We fuel our coaches at one of two servos, both have the most idiotic HGV pump location in relation to air/water/jetwash facilities. As a result I take a great deal of pleasure in using the standard car pumps to fill up the Volvos with 500-ish litres of BP's finest heavy oil, as a coach will happily block off four pumps with no untoward effect.

 

Fuck em.

Here.... it's the teddy. I don't know who threw it, but you look like you need it. Relax for fuck's sake. It's like this normally. Have a cuppa, chew on a toffee, kick the dog. It's only the Internet. It's not like it's important or owt.

Welcome to Autoshite, well I managed five posts before being accused of trolling. God forbid that a newbie should disagree with a "regular", or, have the temerity to ask them to back up an assertion. I was genuinely interested if there was a source of statistics to back it up, I may not have expressed it very well, but it seems the standard response on here is to immediately shout troll, if anyone expresses a contrary point of view. Perhaps I had better go back to lurking, my views are obviously not welcome here.

 

Les, ignore 'em and keep on posting, it's people kicking off for no reason that's driving this place down. Thanks for your help with the MG identification. What shite you got anyway?

That sucks - I feel your pain.

 

See, where you're going wrong here is, you like your car. (We like your car too, obviously.) But if you'd been driving a disposable piece of poo you had no emotional capital* tied up in, you could just have got out, watched him to drive his obscene wankmobile into it and then laughed at him as you claimed on his insurance. Get thee down to the Kia dealership my friend

Speak for yourself

Actually it's generally people fucking moaning who are bringing the place down. There's always going to be minor spats but constant attention seeking 'this is shit, I'm going' type posts are just bollocks. Top right of all of our computer screens is a small red box with a white X in it. That's the thing to click if you don't like a thread or whatever.

Sometimes stating 'this forum is rubbish' is actually worse than what people are complaining about.

 

LesMiserables: Stick around fella, understandably some of us are feeling fragile at the moment having been bombarded with shit about Protons from someone who, to be fair, probably meant well, but just didn't think before bombarding us with crap.

If all the rubbish was simply ignored it would go away soon enough

Senator. Since it was broken into on Saturday I'm paranoid as a paranoid thing about it. Just went to visit a friend in it and within 5 minutes of parking it there was a scally outside my mates house on his phone ringing his mates to tell 'em where it was parked up. This is pissing me right off.

 

I know what he was saying because my friend has a CCTV camera outside his house which has a mega-sensitive microphone and we could hear him clearly state "Fuckin' 24 valve one, kid... like the bizzies had. Easy pickings".

 

This has not improved my mood.

That is really shit, how can you have anything nice when there's scum like that on the street.

[HillmanImp]

What shite you got anyway?

 

If this is not a slightly more cheery Lenoard Hatred I will eat my hat or are you taking the piss Pete?

That was my first thought, but so far in six posts he's not called anyone a grunting mong.

house we had had an offer accepted on has just been sold to a cash buyer.

 

It was massive and cheap and now I have to find another house!

[Cavcraft]

That must be incredibly annoying, Campbell. I recall you saying what a good place it was, hopefully something better will turn up shortly.

 

Many thanks once again for Saturday by the way!

are they cleaned, filled with water and everything working ready for the first fish in a week and a half?

 

My pleasure - now how do I convince the wife we don't need a sunroom but we really need a 30x12 garage instead?

How about using it as "bait". Round up a few well built aquaintancies, park it somewhere dodgy, and hide round the corner, and then do the old "citizen's arrest job". Failing that, a 6" sprung spike under the driver's seat.

I have a large selection of SD cards.

 

About two weeks ago I filmed something for a mate's bird's art project. It was to be a single night's shoot, but because we were dealing with Antwerp Mansion I had to go back and reshoot. Then circus performers appeared, we couldn't get access to the stage and we had to reschedule to shoot at MMU.

 

Then someone wanted to lend an SD card off me, and without thinking I took said memory card and FUCKING WIPED IT, so it could be used on their camera.

 

So, fourth reshoot?

[cobblers]

You can probably recover most of the stuff, unless you've since filled the card back up.

think it's time to quit, but i am gonna be so fuckin mega grumpy

[M'coli]

Proper fucking grumpy now, I applied for a job that I have the skills and experience needed, but did I get asked to interview? No. Twatflaps. What's the fucking point...

[trigger]

Checked over those alloys i paid for £100 for last night the Golf this morning, One tyre has a nail in it and another has cord coming out of the inside tyre edge, Fucking great, Serves me right for buying them in the dark.

[Cavcraft]

What sized tyres are they Trig?

[trigger]

185/60/14, Their the same size as the one's that are already on the car so I'll have to get a garage to swap the best tyre of the old ones to put on the new ones.

 

It's not the end of the world but I certainly wouldn't have paid £100 for them had i of noticed yesterday.
