Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

Of instead of Have. Spoken it can be taken as accent but written is ignorance.
The American use of Bunch when they actually mean Some. "I got a bunch of stuff from the market". "I don't want my daughter drinking a bunch of alcohol".

But Accy, you’re listed on the left as a « Legendary Member ». (Ah, but maybe that’s just attribute advertising!)

Yes, but i am a genuine CC legend. Those footballers are just 'former players'.

 

[guitarpete247]

a Legend or Leg End?

 

[PeteXXX]

May i add the word 'legend' to that Postie. Football wise, if an average player played for a few years at a club he's now regarded as a 'legend'.

Is a leg end something like a bell end but a bit lower? 🤔

When I was in Boots, this morning, I turned round and nearly bumped into 'someone'. After apologising, I realised that it was a cardboard advertising model..

Most annoying, especially as someone walking past definitely sniggered!!

I've done that with mannequins in gents outfitters.

I had it in Todmorden TOFS the other day. My friend was looking at clothes and while waiting I kept getting the feeling that someone was watching me. It was a lifesize cardboard cutout man in my peripheral vision!

Websites designed by imbeciles, and the people who sign them off.

A poster on another thread was kind enough to offer a link to Tui's site for checking out overseas travel/restrictions. First thing you have to do is specify your departure point, so you click and guess what, Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria - it's alphabetical, and exhaustive. So you start scrolling down, and down, and down, and finally, after you've gone through Guam and Guinea-Bissau and the bloody Heard & McDonald Islands (the what?)

....you eventually get to United Kingdom. Which you would have thought might sensibly have been given a special pride of place at the top of the list, given that VIRTUALLY EVERYONE VISITING THE SITE WILL BE UK.

Morons.

Heard & McDonald Islands. Yer 'avin' a laugh aren't you?

And breathe...

 

[PeteXXX]

On a similar website gripe.. I'm not sure if it's Rutland Cycles or leisureakes, but when you've set the filters for what you want ie price, size, colour yada yada yada and you click on summat you like the look of and there's no 'back' button so when you go back a page from the top bar, it dumps all the filters...
Grrrrr

 

[PeteXXX]

Cont....
And colour schemes in 6pt type.
Blue text on a red background!? Seriously!

Needing the toilet just after I’ve settled down in the tent. At this point the rain also decides to chuck it down.

Can't you just start typing united into the filter list to get to UK? Most drop downs allow this shortcut, united would reduce to 3 places usually, so UAE UK and USA.

I worked that out a while ago, having previously been annoyed for the same reason as @swee'pea99.

I have encountered some lists that it doesn't work on though.

Are we talking needing a number one or a number two? 🤔

We have one here in Great Harwood and there's one in Clitheroe, across from the Lidl car park, but let's not dwell on that one eh! Anyway, what do you think about the piped TOFS background music when shopping there? I hear music/songs i have never heard before apart from in there.🤔
