Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

The point is I was then dive bombed by about 20 large aggressive seagulls.

I was a bit peckish so popped down to the kiosk in the office building for a snack. It was closed but they thoughtfully left a sign saying 'back in 30 minutes'

When did that 30 minutes start? - 1 minute ago, 29 minutes ago?

Slightly annoyed and hungry.

The binmen didn't collect our recycling last thursday.
They didn't collect the rubbish yesterday.
Made an official complaint to the council.
They sloped back this morning to take the recycling.
Bins still outside, despite them saying they'd definitely be back to take it.

When the binmen broke my bin recently, they denied it and said I could buy a replacement for £70.

They also dumped the contents of my neighbour's rotting food bin outside our house a few weeks back. My neighbour went mental, chased down the road and confronted them. One of them denied it, then the other two replied that he was lying and told him to complain because they both wanted him fired.

They've returned to take our rubbish. Crisis over. For now.

^ That's the gif I was looking for but couldn't find it.

Funnily enough that episode was on just last night. The Simpsons at it's finest.

Frinkiac, mate. I could happily make a career out of making Simpsons gifs.

Like many of us here, I support Essex in cricket.
Last night, they played Surrey in a T20 at The Oval and lost.
Today, I had to go to a work event at...The Oval.
That was bad enough, but then to find that all the mugs are emblazoned with Surrey County Cricket Club and their logo did kind of feel like it was being rubbed in a bit.

No rain here for about a month. This evening I'm going to the Glos v Somerset T20 cricket match, first ball in 90 minutes. It's started raining. Hmmm.

we seem a bit lightweight batting wise in the 20/20 this season , despite that , there seems to be a smugness around Surrey and their support

On certain KUMB pages, I'm being plagued by the picture of that bird with the hair, glasses & big teeth.
Something to do with Getty Images.

Ridiculous thunderstorm/downpour we had yesterday. First rain for about a month.
Caused the drain outside our house to overflow with rancid smelling crap all over our driveway and, for some reason, our toilet to flood the bathroom.

People who get through to the final round of a gameshow who are then confronted with a wall of numbers. All they are required to do is pick a number off of a board and they stand there hesitating wasting valuable time, how hard can it be to pick a number quickly Headbanger
