Postby The_Bay_Boy » Fri Jan 27, 2006 9:24 pm

i probably should write these in one big long post, but they just keep coming to me the more i think about it.

- shop assistance who come up to you trying to help you when you've only been in the store 3 seconds

- People who are slow walkers and take up the whole foot path so you can't get past

- people who take your couple of bucks on the edge of the pool table. Or take it and claim that it's theirs when it's your turn to play

i might as well just say people give me the 5hits

Started winning again 2 years ago, and yes we there for both of those years, but we were also there in 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, which was the worst season in the clubs history. Nearly every week with my son, and most weeks with my daughter and other 1/2, my son and I missed only three games in 2003, all the ones we sat through North lost, and we were there 'till the end of the games, so don't talk to me about being a bandwagoner.

But you are obviously one of the loyal roosters supporters who has seen them stuggle and you've been to the games and done the hard yards. i'm talking about the peole who just jump on coz they are winning.

....and some great recruiting, but I'm sure the prospect of playing under Jars would have helped to secure a few of them as well.

Just drove passed a McDonald's and they were advertising that they now sell toast. Come on people, are we so busy and/or lazy that we can't even make our own toast these days.

Other things that give me the irits.....

1) People overusing the term "un-Australian". Particularly when people on either side of an argument will claim that the other's is un-Australian.

2) People who say "expecially" or "arks" (as in, "Can I arks a question?").

3) In addition to Wedgie's escalator people, people who stand on those flat type escalator things who have temporarily lost the use of their legs.

4) People who press the "walk" button at the lights 40 times in the belief that the lights will change more quickly because they have "tricked" them into thinking that a huge crowd of people has arrived and is waiting to cross.

5) Cyclists who go through red lights.

6) Cyclists over the age of 12 years who ride on the footpath.

7) Cyclists over 80kg who squeeze themselves into lycra. In particular, middle aged female cyclists over 80kg who push lycra to the limits of physics and end up looking like a rolled beef roast with limbs.

8] Old Greek women, who think that the "Handbaskets Only" sign in Woolworths translates in Greek to "Please bring your full trolley through and then pretend not to understand English so that the checkout girl will give up and just let you come through".

9) European migrants who have been here for 40 years but still don't realise that our summers are bloody hot and that you have to wear anti-perspirant. In the words of George Costanza, "that's beyond BO, that's BBO!".

10) Anything that Tony Greig or Bill Lawry have to say. (Is it my imagination or has Richie Benaud turned into a parody of himself. He sounding more and more like a Richie Benaud impersonator with each match.)

Also people who push the walk button at a pedestrian crossing, then cross the road before the lights change, leaving cars waiting at a red light with no one crossing the road.

Another that pisses me off is, people who say "everythink", when they mean "evrything"

Mate - I feel your pain!

I joined the express lane in the local supermarket over the weekend. Every schmuck in front of me insisted on paying for their milk and paper with a frickin' CREDIT CARD... FFS people, just reach into your pocket and get rid of that change. You'll be out quicker and the express line might actually become an EXPRESS line.

Pedestrians who cross without waiting for the light, thereby preventing traffic from legitimately turning right.

People who take 15 minutes at an ATM.

(These came up today for me! lol)

Well this post came back to haunt me, yesterday paid $5.60 worth of groceries with their credit card.
Honestly, what goes through these idiots heads?

I hear you Wedgie, although I had someone take five items through the checkout when I've got a loaded trolley. This is why there's an EXPRESS LANE! Twelve items or LESS! Adding to the fact he paid for it with a card.. I actually thought of this post at that stage!

People who wear Port Power gear to Port Magpie games

The 'stable experts' at Riding for the Disabled where I volunteer
The girls at RDA who think that THEY will be getting a ride during a class because no one is using a specific horse
The girls at RDA who claim a certain horse as 'theirs' and no one else can lead it/groom it/feed it etc

Being asked if you need help when you're quite capable of coping on your own (ie 'Oh that wheelbarrow full of manure/crate full of bottles/bag of grain/bag of ice is too heavy for someone so little to push/carry on their own, do you want any help') honestly if I want help I'll ASK for it! Until that time comes just rack off! :evil:
