minor things that make you fume

Owner of my local has a private league table of who pays what when the regulars are together. It was an eye opener.

I love it, the League of Shame lol

We obviously share the same mate lol

There was a lad who I use to drink with occasionally who used to offer to go to the bar for everyone and not only ordered the most expensive German lager for himself, but used to keep everyone’s change too !

HaHa.
No, with me I've lived amongst the archetypal tightwads for over 30 years here in Yorkshire.
I think I've seen most of the stunts used to avoid paying for stuff.

My missus is from York and when I first started drinking in what became my local in York, the first thing I noticed was that everyone bought their own drinks and there was no such thing as a round.

That soon changed lol

Insurance companies trying to justify an admin charge for next to nothing changes.
I know someone today who passed their test. They rang the insurers who wanted £95 ( yes ninety five quid) to change the cover. An admin fee. Not the change in premium. A further call got that waived

He actually took me aside a while back and told me who never buys me a drink back.

If I was armed with that sort of knowledge, I’d be sorely tempted to weaponise it lol

The score 'box' for the CL final on BT has PAR instead of PSG. Can't ignore it

30 seconds off winning the Golden goal in my club ballot for the Champions league final

Edit: a club mate just messaged me, he was 9 seconds outlol

The lad who turns up one week at footy in all the flash gear then ponces around with the ball running in circles, going nowhere and never passes.

I just picked up a flier for a doorstep loan that came through the door.

APR of 339.7%!!!!!!

I am outraged that scumbags are taking advantage of vulnerable and/ or desperate people with this sort of finance. It's nothing but usury.

Without disagreeing with you, these high percentages are usually for short-term loans, which use the higher rates to make a profit over the small time of the loan.

The problem is that it sucks people in and quite quickly a small debt can spiral into a huge one. The system needs to be managed much, much better.

There was someone in the Tap who was quite renowned for this. He soon learnt that when people started leaving him out of rounds and never getting him a drink.

That or when someone called him a cheeky, stingy t.....; I was never sure which one it was.
