What made you (want to) Swear Today?

As a kind of companion thread to “What Made You Smile Today?” what made you angry or just annoyed today? Get it off your chest here, folks. I’ll kick off with this. These two animals beat a completely innocent man to a pulp, and when he asked them why they were attacking him replied “You ain’t done nothing. We’re just having you” And today, news that their already paltry sentences have been REDUCED. Christ, I despair of this country sometimes, I really do.

Well, of course, if they charged for them as they do in dozens of other countries the problem would disappear overnight!

They charge for the use of trollies in Lidl and I very rarely see a Lidl trolly thrown in a bush or river but see other supermarkets trollies everywhere they shouldn’t be pretty much daily!

I might start a Facebook group ‘Return Your Trollies!’

It seems to be the modern way of protesting about something.

The halfwit in a VW Beetle (new shape) who thought that a queue of cars slowing down for a flooded road was an ideal overtaking opportunity….

Been there, done that, BSG.

Just make sure that the kids never forget for a moment that Mum and Dad both love them dearly, and always will, and you’ll all get through it.

I know it doesn’t seem that way right now, but you will.

Thank you both (hope the work thing sorts itself out Daz) without looking odd and and geeky pouring my heart out on the internet to people I’ve never met, actually being able to type it and say it helps with accepting it (if that makes any sense).

either way, a long few months ahead for me, the Mrs, and the kids…

Those are two dispiriting posts to read. I sincerely hope things do get better for you both after not too long. Losing a job is bad enough but living apart and trying to make it work for the children must be very difficult.:(

divorce/seperation

seems thats heading my way, selling up, looking to buy two places so we can share custody of the nippers (6 and 10, this will break their hearts) the 50/50 split on everything does, it seem, extend to my die-cast models as well.:eek:

that and we are in a 3 month “hurry up and wait” situation at work to see who stays and who goes…

all in all, a few choice words have been in use today, and for the past few in truth….:mad:

I used to work in Tesco, Newbury collecting the trollies from around the car park (and local housing estates) and returning them to the front of the shop. This is something that even 10 years after I finished that job that really winds me up! It takes only a matter of seconds to return a trolly to a trolly park and place it correctly in with the others yet I too see these selfish, thoughtless and stupid people leaving them strewn throughout the car park. It would be interesting to see how quickly they would be back in the shop complaining if a lose trolly was to get blown into the side of their car scratching it! :dev2:

Well, of course, if they charged for them as they do in dozens of other countries the problem would disappear overnight!

Early visit to the supermarket. Struggled to park for the jumble of trolleys left all over the parking bays. Are these people selfish, thoughtless or stupid – or all three? How long does it take to return the trolley to a trolley park, for heavens sake? They are no doubt the same people who park across two parking spaces and failing that, in disabled and family parking bays!:mad:

Trying to find a MS Excel workbook with a certain pattern of numbers on it, to match another sheet which was a paste/values only version and renamed.
I opened 134 workbooks this morning, all of which were variations and what-ifs on the same piece of work.

Must use a better ID system!

Seeing a paperback I bought for £2 in a charity shop last week for sale in another charity shop today for 75p.Life can be so cruel.
