^ but what soup is sexy?!

That said, there's probably some weirdo site out there with people with a fetish for hot water bottles and soup.

As with music I have eclectic taste in art, which in a way is nice because I appreciate more of it, but it does make it very difficult to buy art as I just like so much and due to the different styles, they wouldn't sit well together on a wall.

Cars. Mine is kind of broken. I feel like anything to do with cars and I just get fleeced at every turn.

When news reporters are talking to camera by a road side and they look like they're literally standing on the edge of the road with traffic rushing past, what a stupid place to stand

I thought it was pretty good to be honest.

When you have three packets of AAA batteries and not one AA.

[Schmosby]

Secret santa is just such a bad idea.

A) I don't want or need anything cheap, if I did I would have already bought it myself. If they buy me something 'funny', i won't find it funny and I have no interest in pretending to.

B) I have no idea what to get the person I need to buy for and no interest in getting to know them just to work out what to buy them.

C) I want to just keep my money, I like my money, It's mine. They were talking about spending up to £30 each today :O

The times when I have to sit through children singing. I absolutely can't stand anything to do with kids performing . I'm very confident that even if I had kids and it was their performance, I'd still be cringing to death on the inside.

My next door neighbours' dog. It's just so thick! Every day it barks for hours after postal deliveries. Why?! When is it finally going to figure out that barking for hours achieves absolutely nothing? A cat would never do that, they might meow for a bit, realise it gets them nowhere and go back to sleep.

[Dougella]

^ If the dog's on it's own at the time it probably doesn't stop barking because it's alerting the pack that there's an intruder......and no-one's there to acknowledge it lol.

Aw - I see.

But there is no pack and why don't they learn there is no pack today or tomorrow?

I'm sorry, that didn't do much to convince me it's not thick! But I do feel slightly more soft towards it now.

[Schmosby]

Wowza, hope you're not still working there.

[Beth M]

That's horrendous, Galatea.

She should be the one slinking away in shame, not you.

[newbs16]

This cough is getting on my nerves, it seems worse this evening.

[Schmosby]

We specifically use non peelable to stop people swapping them.

[newbs16]

When someone was moaning about a smelly toilet in a hospital, people are ill!

[kirbycrackle]

^ take me. You'll instantly regret it

[kirbycrackle]

^ aw thank you but I was larking about. I'd be all awkward and no fun. Lol I hope you find someone to go with x

[kirbycrackle]

^ phew. Worried I was being a tease there lol I think it's the journey there before that's more anxiety ridden. Nothing wrong with being a lone rocker

[Rocket Spud]

Not liking either pair of shoes that i've just taken delivery of

[Mr. Spaceman]

It's time to pleeey WIN THE ADS!!

[Tom Morello]

^I'm sure you'll look trim-endous if you have it cut.

I'll get my coat...

[ghost.of.an.englishman]

^^ I feel for you ladies getting your hair cut, I can't stand the barbers and it only takes like 10 minutes.

[Mo34]

You wouldn't think rotating a video would be such hassle. I ****ing give up.

[anxiouslondoner]

^ surely there's a market for hairdressers who promise to remain silent through the whole process. Maybe they are mute. Or don't speak English. But then how would you tell them what you want? That's the most difficult bit anyway! I never know what I want, I just want someone to deal with this plant growing out of the top of my head in a manner acceptable to society.

[Schmosby]

I do find having to deal with stupid people to be a real drain, for example someone asked for photos of a graphics card we are selling so that they can check to see if there is physical damage, however they could just ask 'has this got any physical damage?' to achive the same result without wasting my time.

Another one recently was someone who claimed that they received their tablet without its stylus, I told my boss to tell them to use their eyes to look for the stylus, as it was indeed included. They came back saying they had looked and it wasn't there, I told my boss exactly how and where in the package the stylus was, they got back saying it wasnt there, so I had to waste even more of my time looking through cctv, saving it and uploading it just to help them understand that they are stupid. They had put the stylus in the bin of course, which shows they didn't even bother actually looking for it all along or they would have found it.

TL;DR
Stupid people = life wasters.

[kirbycrackle]

^ I feel like that a lot too

Ladies sometimes get a head massage, whoah. And you're even asked about your love life, how intrusive is that. NONE OF YOUR DAMNED BUSINESS SIR

[ghost.of.an.englishman]

^ hmm, maybe I wouldn't like that, I think I'd struggle to keep my head still for so long. And you'd have to make a weird relaxed face. You should, though they might give you a hipster beard :-P
