Probably opening myself up to a torrent of abuse now but.............people who try and write in their regional dialects. Proper grips my shit, can't be arsed to try and decipher it so just scroll on passed which is a shame because they've probably got something interesting or amusing to say
Thankfully doesn't really happen too much on here but some faceache groups are full of it. Each to their own of course but I don't really see how it helps anything
Standing by for a whole host of badly written regional messages that I can scroll on passed

 

Eee man ha’way ah divvint nah wot ya tarkin aboot

 

This couple have made a lifestyle choice to have seven kids and should get out and get work to support them. Not be seeking benefits and charity to support them. Boils my piss this kind of story. Don't get me wrong where there is a real need the wellfare state should support those less fortunate than those of us more lucky than them.

 

Just like my local

 

Reminds me of this

 

What pisses me off was this statement:
"We've been set up to fail as parents by the state.

'There's nobody to contact about our situation, the Job Centre workers just tell us it's not their department.

'Decisions have been made at a really high level and that's just the way it is."

He is receiving the equivalent of about £30k pre tax employment pay or higher.
After we have paid his rent, utilities he is left with £670 a month to live on
Bloody hell, he can fuck right off for all I care, that is plenty enough for food (plus fags and booze)

Having that many kids was very much a conscious decision on their part, fully expecting tax payers to foot the bill

Saying they have been set up to fail at a really high level, what an arrogant, self servings entitled prick
Be grateful for what you are getting, you should have had you nuts tied off before having more kids than you can care for

 

Poor kids in all this lot.

 

Agreed it is the kids that suffer....

 

Banning rolling tobacco and menthol fags as from May 2020.
I don't smoke and that still annoys me.

 

Mate I nearly had a heartattack then!!! Thought you meant they were banning all rolling tobacco not just menthol flavoured tobacco

 

Banning all rolling tobacco init?

Edit My mistake thats how it was told to me.

 

Didn't know about that so just had a read. You have to dig quite deep to find out it's not all rolling tobacco, only flavoured tobacco that's being banned. Like you though pisses me off that some EU bureaucrats can dictate what can or can't be sold when it's not an illegal product

 

No just Menthol flavoured from what I can see and menthol cigarettes

Apparently menthol flavouring encourages kids to smoke

 

i couldn’t stand menthol ciggies as a kid... but liked the old JPS ... glad I don’t smoke now (very occasionally a celebratory cigar or rolly)

 

I hate tailgating (really hate it), but this also seems to happen quite often now:

I'm on the motorway in the car, and it's flowing nicely, so I sit at either the speed limit or the speed of the other vehicles in lane one and put cruise control on (I'm seldom in a rush these days, so go for relaxed). I try to keep at least the 2-second gap in front.

But somebody crawls past in lane two at a mile or two per hour faster, then crosses back into lane one, only just in front of me, so I'm in effect tailgating them, AND THEN SLOWS DOWN AND CAUSES ME TO BRAKE THUS SPOILING MY KARMA!!!!!

If they want to go slower than me, then why f*^%ing go f#%^*ing past in the first f+*^%ing place? If they want to go past, don't cut my nose off and then slow down - go past and keep going.

Nothing worse than having your karma spoiled...

...well lots of things are I suppose, but this raises the temperature of my urine to 100c. Happened again on the way home just now. Steam coming out.
