At the moment, I'm hating hearing a young boy telling his Dad he should buy a bigger boat just because he "Bought a JEEP" EVERY SINGE ADD BREAK!
SO OVER IT. I know its supposed to be clever marketing, but after seeing the add so much, I never ever want to buy a Jeep. And whilst at it, I am also never going to buy a vehicle because "its not a car....." "........its an Alfa Romeo".

When you find out your VRX's leaking heater core seals cost $1.55 each, then find out it costs another $1296.90 to have them fitted by a stealer.
I also hate the pile of dash parts (the whole fuggn dash inc. front seats) laying next to the VRX in the garage awaiting reassembly due to afore mentioned seals. And I hate VODAFONE and internet service. And people wonder why im so grumpy... |

Coles insurance... what a bloody joke.
Go online, select third party and they show you a full comp price. Do it again... I must have not did it right. Nope, full comp. Oh, a live chat function?? Hey mate, why am I seeing full comp? "You need to select third party to see third party" Did that... ok, lets try that again. Nope, happened again.. "Oh, yeah, we show everyone the full comp price to give them an idea of how much it is" Not interested in full comp mate... "I can see that third party is $339" So why didn't the screen show me that? "Because, you need to scroll down to get an 'exact quote' to show the third party price" Sorry mate, coles insurance isn't for me then. What a fricken JOKE..... Bit like taking it upon yourself to serve meat to a vego 'Just in case they don't know what they are missing'...

you're lucky the website actually works..........I can't remember the amount of times I have made an enquiry through a website, then ended up ringing a week later (after waiting for a response) only to be told "oh! we don't monitor the website".
so why do you have them, take the waste of space things down and stop wasting my time.

I cop **** all the time about that because I've got Jeep T-shirts, I only buy them because they're the only half decent T-shirt on the market which seems to be quality.

One of the rings on my fingers came off when I was shopping this morning. Straight away I looked around for it. After a minute or so, I noticed there was a woman looking at me.
Me- "Scuse me. I have just lost a gold ring. Did you see where it went?" Woman - looking all sheepish and stuff...."Yes..... I am standing on it" Me- "Well can you lift your foot!" Bent down and retrieved my ring. Couldn't believe this woman! Why not just pick up the ring and give it back with a "Here ya go!" Dodgy people in this world make me shake my head sometimes. Cheers Col

WTF is wrong with people? Especially when Col dropped a ring, crikey another woman hiding a ring from a woman - any ring holds extra special value to the lady who owns it - us lads all know that.

I took said ring straight to the jewellery shop for a resize. Jack gave it to me on my birthday in January. It was a half size too big but once the man gave it to me...I wasn't about to give it back so it could be fitted properly. I should have...but well this girl loves her bling!
And I agree supershifty...never get between a woman and her jewellery! Cheers Col

People who don't mind their own bloody business, snarky comments at the dog park about 'owners who don't have control of their dog' when my dog wouldn't 'come' rather than help me catch her / give me advice. My dog wasn't even bothering them....
She's 6 months old, just started obedience training, we practice at home regularly have haven't been out because she got desexed / it's been raining and above all she's still a puppy ffs. |

Older sisters. In particular older sisters who do the following:
- Try to tell you your ME/CFS is possibly asthma - Tell you that you own your reactions, and then proceed to use that as an excuse to be an ******** - Then brag about it on facebook - tagging other family members so they can be sure you see it. Yep. Pretty over her crap at this point. XR6menace: That's awful dude. :(

Depression makes you deal with things in a rather awkward way, when you have surgery you kind of expect the surgeon to be contactable when you strike trouble?
I would never make light of suicide i have lost a lot of close friends and been that depressed myself i have attempted it twice before ... but now i always try and seek ways to improve my life and my decision making skills ... End of last month i was in a very dark place i bought something i shouldn't have, i couldn't do anything without bleeding everywhere and i have trouble walking because of another injury ... when you feel helpless and all you ever do is wrong in your own eye's it impacts heavily when you are alone .. and Geez i surely Hate that... But today is another day and although nothing has changed so far in relation to my bleeding or decision making skills... i do have my health so one day at a time people peace out Daz ..x.. |

ah! depression.......I REALLY hated that!
one day at a time, learn to laugh at yourself and grab your brain by its testicles and wring the life back into it. really hard when the brain turns against its owner. my whinge.......bloody gophers on the road, 5 miles per hour straight up the centre, how come we can't run over them?

You can, unfortunately the result comes with consequences. Who would Mumma Smurf have to boss around (make suggestions to) with you in the big house.
