The grumpy thread

[Inspector Morose]

Weston SUPER mare with a load of kids and,even worse, several other coach drivers. I just know the day will be filled with "the boss is a tosser and can't do his job", "sent all immigrants back home", "paki bastards", "wogs", and other epithets that make me think that there is no chance for the human race.

 

I can stand the, say, first five seconds of it all but...... Well you can guess the rest. Oh the joys of saying to them " well by wife who is second generation black Caribbean thinks that what you say it a total bag of shit beacause x, y and z oh and did I tell you she has a degree in this very subject" then watching they're faces drop for a bit then try, very unsuccessfully to tiptoe around their inherent racism And failing to do so, I find this tedious and boring.

 

Oh and I've got to be up a stupid o clock the next day as I've to be in Cambridge at half nine. Talk about Sqeueaky drivers hours when the company wants something doing.Coach will be dumped with no fuel and as the kiddly winkles left it.

New build homes, not only are they hideous, tiny, cold, expensive, full of scummy people (Usually) they build these fucking places in the most inappropriate places. Theres two sites I can think of, where traffic is now even worse than it was before. It's always caused by people trying to turn into the 'street'. 

[purplebargeken]

No Idea - they had me on a trolley, and just told me to be calm, and put a mask over my mouth and breath slowly as I could, next thing I know I'd missed a week 

 

Crikey, glad you is on the mend.

 

It was a boring week anyway, you missed nothing.

[UmBongo]

Piers Morgan on that lottery advert.

 

What a horrible, dead-eyed, dough-faced piece of spunkshite he is.

While we're on it, how about 'low cost home ownership'? You buy a percentage and pay rent on the rest (and maintenance charges) so you don't actually fucking own it and it's not especially low cost.

 

REAL 'low cost home ownership' would surely be houses that cost £130,000 to build being sold for one hundred and thirty thousand fucking quid.

[AlabamaShrimp]

Well that went well!

 

In the grin thread yesterday I wrote that I'd be going to a scrappers today for a trial. Was a shot phone call asking did I ha e to and turn up for 9.

 

Got there place closed. Security* guard outside was a nice bloke said they are a bunch of wankers that mess you about over money and what work you do and that most of the staff have left.

 

Few minutes later an oldish bloke turns up, says hello and asks do I have any tools. No I've only got crap, then spends the next 10 minutes discouraging me from working.

 

Sod it then I came home. Left my last you due to hassle but at most I was always paid on time

did they use Dry Blackthorn? It has that effect on me sometime. Glad your ok, fella

Piers Morgan is a bare-faced liar. How on earth he maintains a living, never mind such a high public profile, baffles me.

I'm going to be having both my nine hour allowable minimum rests for this week in the next two days, Newcastle today and Sunderland tomorrow. Joys.

My bluetooth obd2 reader and torque free wont see the ECU on a colleagues 2001 mk4 1.4 pez golof. Shame, as the engine light is on. Some googling shows that it may or may not be an obd2 complaint car, depending on wether it rained the day the car was made and if some bloke called Hans was working that day.

 

Sounded rough as fuck though when she turned it on, quietened down after a few minutes though. Sounded like a blowing exhaust but when it settled down it was clear it wasnt.

As predicted eBay buyer being wanker. Said I would refund the money if he sent me the watch.

 

Turned up today looking like this

He said he got it like this, well actually he said it was a bit slow to change modes . no pictures to support it or proof of it.

 

Are eBay reasonable or do they still support buyer?

 

Ha ha ha ha ha. NO.

 

There's an ongoing saga on the power seller board where punter bought a fish tank heater, and sent it back as defective. Came back with the plug cut off and jammed in a different box. Ebay's droids announced that it had been sorted. Seller announced he'd been shafted and ebay had given the punter a full refund.

 

TLDR: Buyers can do anything they like.

[nigel bickle]

Mot'd the mk1 Espace today. Straight through, no advisories.

 

Trip home, overheating, pressurising and a split oil pipe somewhere in the gloom.

 

Oh joy.

[Pillock]

Mk4 Golf is OBD2 compliant, in Europe all models sold after 1/1/2001, and all new models introduced after 1/1/2000 had to have the port.

However, the cheap readers are known not to work very well - it'll work fine on a megabucks Snapon device, annoyingly.

[doobietoo]

Murray lost again..... but that is not my grump....  It is the stupid commentator saying after the game and I quote " Murray did nothing wrong " I'm sorry he lost ... if he had done nothing wrong he would have won..... The idea of this particular game is to win it.... Where do they dig these people up from FFS ???

[EssDeeWon]

Murray losing again is a grin for me 

 

Sorry.

[purplebargeken]

Can't abide the bloke or his family.

[cort16]

What about his mints?

[dollywobbler]

I'm grumpy because I was trying to hide from the result before watching the highlights. DOH!

 

To be fair though, you can play absolutely brilliantly and still get beaten by a better player. Better to get beaten than just blow it by ballsing it up. Like the story in the other semi-final. 

[stillOrange]

Murray's mum scares the shit out of me ...

The closet vag lover was on lunch when i did it. Mentioned it to him after and he immediatly said the same, it may not be basic obd compliant to force people back to vag to have it plugged in.

 

Fair play to torque though, it ran every protocol it had 3 times before giving up!

Nine hours in sodding Sunderland tomorrow.

[Inspector Morose]

Try a week in Cambridge. I feel your pain.

[The Moog]

Fuck it. Gave him his money back. Life is too short

[fordperv]

Fuck I've just lost "the game"

[Bobthebeard]

Housing Association house next door has recently got some new tenants. All seemed well for a while. Now the son of the woman has moved in. Must be at least 35, no job and doesn't want a job according to the overheard loud conversations. Got an American Bull Terrier that lives in the shed and never seems to go out for a walk, two or three cats and no lawn mower. The son seems to spend his time sleeping, shouting at the dog in the shed to "fucking shut up" and playing loud music.

Brilliant.

No stereotypes there then.

[Timewaster]

I like Cambridge.

 

I don't live there though!

[Taff]

Can't abide the bloke or his family.

 

I would love to shag his mum. Just so that, after she had squirted, I could loudly call out "Love - Deuce"

[fred]

Can't abide the bloke or his family.

Made my day the scruffy tosspot lost at toss a ball over a net game, fecking wanker

[EssDeeWon]

Nevermind, he'll have to put his Union Jack Scottish flag away for another year.

[MarvinsMom]

that fat gurning twat alex salmon wasn't at wimbledon been a cunt again was he?

[jakebullet]

I don't know why, but Scotland appears very capable of producing sports people to hate. I used to feel the same about Stephen Hendry too.

 

Maybe Ireland got the love me gene instead? Or it's easier to like horse jockeys than knob jockeys.
