They have banned the selling of Muriatic acid to the general public in liquid form in the Philippines.

I now have to get the PH regulator for the pool in powder form at an extortionate rate and have to buy 25 kg bags of it which also gives me storage problems.

Woe.

Booking fees!..

So is that an extra, can I have the ticket without the booking fee?

No - so just include it and don’t pretend it’s an additonal service you are kindly helping us with.

How much for that loaf?

80p…oh, plus a 30p fee for selling it to you…

Ridiculous.

They bill them seperately bc booking fees are non VAT.

I made that up tbh but I just google and there may be some truth in it.

Those two or three dew drops that appear on your light coloured chinos after a slash, especially embarrasing when you’ve got to go back into a meeting.

Panickers. They especially do my head in because I am not. Perhaps its an occupataional hazard specific to us coders, but some people go mental the minute anything is wrong, despite my storied history of fixing anything that ever had anything wrong with it.

First thing I do is normally tell them they’re panicking. I do not tell them panickers really do my head in. They tend to panic a bit more, if anything.

Brits on holiday in decent (genuinely good quality) local restaurants who then ask if there is any ketchup to go with their sea bass, tapas, lamb shoulder, etc and then are surprised when the answer is no. FFS

Brits in the airport going on holiday who put their hand luggage on the conveyor for security, at peak periods when there are hundreds of people waiting to do just the same. Only as their bags are moving do they decide to search through them to find their phones, toiletries, ipads and kindles to put out separately. No, of course, there was no way you can have known this was needed beforehand :lou_facepalm_2:.

Adam peaty. Well done you won gold, but is it absolutely necessary to interview literally everyone he is related to or has ever met about it.

Hey, let’s give him 24 hours before we tire of him and his dull family.

The tabloids normally leave it seven days before they go digging for dirt.

Give him a break - until Thursday or Friday at least.

When people use medal as a verb.

“I wonder if he will medal”

Meddle with what?

When you’re at a bar and you’ve been queueing for ages when some ignorant twat strolls up, pushes in, and says “A rum and ribena, and a babycham for the little lady”.

You’ve got nothing on my bar woes.

First of all, there’s the perennial short bloke problem of getting fucking seen.

Second, as experienced when getting a round in at the Arkles in January this year, there’s the long hair prob. Some Scottish bloke thought I was a girl, and was “confused”.

“Dude, I’ve got a beard”, I said.

And then you’ve got the fuckers that try to spike you with bottles of “Poodog”, as I will refer to it here, as not to advertise further.
