marcus jones Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I make no secret of the fact I have a genuine animosity for weather people, what qualifications or talents do you need to do become one of these people anyway, as from what I've seen for as long as I can remember, the majority are simply five fifths of useless Was told yesterday there would be heavy rain today, did they slip it out the back door or something, and last night, 'plummeting temperatures of near icy proportions', lo and behold it was hardly below double figures And they get paid a handsome sum for just standing there for about 45 seconds a time, twice a day, getting everything wrong and smiling away, horrible fucks. I'd like to round up some of these weather people in a room with no windows. It wouldn't be anything pretty, it would be flat out brutality well I take some comfort at least that I'm not alone with my impressions of these individuals - http://www.cuntscorn...hp?cunt_id=9746 Only weather I look at is BBC Wales 6:30am and 6:55pm, need it for my job. pisses me off when national BBC presenters put their damn hands in the way of Wales when showing ''Londoners'' if they need coat walking to their car! If your job don't involve needing to study the weather to plan your day then your in a good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 "Over fifties life cover" offers through the post . I don't need f'king reminding all the time. Plus the wife creasing up laughing every time Michael Parkinson comes on TV offering us poor geriatrics a free Parker pen "just for applying" .

Dalziel Kane Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 This year will be the 25th anniversary of that Hurricane in the South East, and someone that day frantically phoned in -'Er, I heard there was a hurricane coming, what should we do etc' 'No need to worry, there will be no such thing, just some strong winds across The Bay of Biscay and Northern France, nothing to worry about' These people couldn't find a hooker in a whorehouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Thanks you two, you genuinely both gave me a laugh. Seriously though, if you don't know how to use a full stop then you're thick as shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 What is all this pedantic bullshit? Some people don't use full stops, it's intentional if done, not because they are stupid or don't know what one is, we just prefer not to use them There's a certain Everton site that is very strict on things like that, everything has to be immaculately presented or an inevitable bitching and moaning from editors soon arises (you missed out a letter or punctuation mark, we take issue with this etc) So Sorry and all - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a what grinds your gears thread, and people who have no idea how to use a full stop grind my gears. Clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I haven't yet encountered one that charges that amount for a mere withdrawl, it's usually the foreign establishments that have a tendency to do it , 'Oh there's no ATM nearby, let's make some money out of it and charge extortionate prices to do it and inconvenience people'. Fuck them I say, as I'd only do it as a last resort and 99 per cent of the time withdraw cash from reliable banks and building societies And isn't it fucking annoying when said foreigners are always on the phone rambling on with their trivial discussions in a language you can't understand. They don't say 'welcome, hello or thank you' or anything either. I mean we've taken the time to purchase something from their miserable establishment and they can't even acknowledge that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonButtle Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 It's the only cash machine round here, as i live out in wilds so they can get away with it i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
