Insignificant/ Significant things that BYP or just wind you up a little

[ogri]

Whilst washing the ZH2, my Snow foam pressure spray bottle has just catastrophically failed resulting in the plunger being ejected with considerable force into my lower jaw and I'm now bleeding profusely from inside and outside my lower lip.

The attitude of some people

" Hi, all checked out; All cleaned, dishwasher left running with some plates so you'll need to empty it...... "

Ohh, not, "would you mind emptying it for us, I know it's the very first thing on the list of things we must do in order to get our deposit back........"

same woman that earlier in the week said

" our hot water isn't working and I think it's perfectly reasonable to expect to have hot water in our cabin and I don't see why we should have to use the campsite ones "

This was the initial message. No one has suggested that they should be OK with no hot water, no one has suggested they use the campsite showers.

So I’ve always assumed that, cos I’m not exactly skinny, when they’re drunk they assume I must be ‘grateful’ for an offer

I asked a girl out once and got knocked back, she was a bigger girl and I heard later she assumed I was doing it for a dare, by the time she found out the truth I had already started seeing someone else. Looking back, the idea of asking someone out would terrify me now, I simply couldn't do it now, drunk or sober.

It does not boil my piss but i just cant understand why this fucking arsehole would do this. Bad enough the pavement is blocked but the back end was stuck out that far he may as well have double parked. Good five minutes sorting out his parcels then left it like this when delivering a few. He left the engine running as well and now i am wishing i went down and checked his keys into the neighbours long grass or down the drain. Well done Amazon.

Well I connected to Radio X via Sonos this morning and all OK, now this? Pretty bloody flakey......

Regular occurrence. I find I have to close the app and reopen it.

If ever companies need an example of how not to upgrade systems, this would be it. Should be taught in business school. Given that Sonos is a high end product, it's shocking that this was allowed to happen (rumour is the headphones were due to be dropped, needed the redesigned app to support them, so a bit of a 'least worse option' scenario).
I have ten speakers around my house, inc. the Sub and soundbar, a few Sonos 5 and Play Ones plus a Move.

Ask me if I'd recommend Sonos to anybody these days.

Our Sonos system has developed a new issues, has picked up a stammer / bit of tourettes! Popping during payback, really bloody annoying!

Re: Buffets, I don’t have much Experiance of them but what I’ve had before has been good. However in this flop house it is dire! Cheap food drying out under the r lights. My fellow guests seem to be enjoying it though, judging by the mountainous piles filling their plates! There’s hardly any English here so we’re in the clear. A Scottish couple seem to be in a competition with a French couple to see who can with the coveted prize for outright piggery! Don’t get me started in foreign tea and coffee machines!

Small yappy whiney dogs, and their owners who haven't bothered to train them, and when more than 2 congregate at the same place they're guaranteed to spoil a lovely lunch out in the sun.

The looks on their faces when I commented that it a shame carrying hand guns is illegal was hilarious it's a shame only one took the hint and left.

Add any dog owner with a poorly trained dog off the lead, they think any public space where dogs are permitted belongs to them.

Dog owners that don't let their dogs play for more than 5 mins.

There's a dog walking field right in front of my accommodation. If I see an owner with their dog off the lead. I leave my dog at home, I approach the owner to see if it's OK for my dog to come out. With a positive response, I let Max out. The friendliest dog you could ever wish for, after the initial sniffing and pissing, invariably the dogs start running round together playing and it's great to watch. All too often, after 5 minutes the other owner gets bored and decides "thats enough". They then, unsurprisingly struggle to get their dog back. I normally call Max back and this helps calm the other dog. But *FFS let them run round together for 20 mins or more.

* I do understand that some dogs might have a medical condition or other issues that means they shouldn't run around too much, but not ALL of them surely !?
