minor things that make you fume

Having to watch an advert before nearly every video on YouTube now. They're always the 30 second ones you can't skip, too.

Yeah. I normally just move onto the next, rather than put up with the advert. If we all did this, (it would be detected) the ads would become pointless and removed.

Ads are my pet hate. Invariably if a business wants to go to the expense of advertising their wares then they mustn't be selling, and if they're not selling it must, logically, be because they're no good. Hence Chrismpw's First Law : if it's advertised it's rubbish

I'm at he point where I don't watch films on TV if it's got ads in - they ruin the film. I'd rather buy the dvd.

Just be mindful that someone crossing on the other side will look the other way first before seeing you
 

Supermarket trolleys - awful!

On two counts:
1- few go in a straight line
2- only a few people park them properly after use.

Maybe it's me just getting old and grumpy or developing an ocd.

Sheeple insiting they pack the shopping at till at Lidl, while ignoring the very obvious long bench. Why are sheeple ignorant and stupid?

Surely is more sheep like to comply with lidls desire that you do that, using customer's time as their free commodity to save money on having till staff. Less sheep like for customers to value their own time and do it their own way.

Just saying like.

Not once have I ever felt that Lidl wanted me to pack on the bench, and I visit nigh on daily. Surely going back and forth with handfuls of items is just as time consuming?

It happened to me in aldi once. The cashier asked me to shove all my stuff into the trolley and pack on the bench. I refused, on the very reasonable grounds that stuff was going into my bags as quickly as they were coming through the til, and if company policy were to be so inflexible then it will be my policy to shop elsewhere.

I do struggle to follow ridiculous instructions.

Not strictly a fume, but I was cycling home last night and a bug flew into my ear. Like, right into my ear canal. It was disgusting. It must've only been tiny but it was flapping about against my eardrum, and no amount of finger-wiggling would remove it.

Had to cycle all the way home with it in there, then drowned it in Olive Oil. Still haven't been able to remove the carcass properly.

Grim.

The fly came out yesterday after I went swimming. It was over a centimetre long and fully intact. So disgusting.
