What's Your Pet Hate

[ernknot]

I don't like whingers and whiners. Life is to short to stuff around with petty things. Some spend their entire life finding fault with everything but do nothing to fix it. To those people - GET A BLOODY LIFE!!!

THEY DONT!!! so they have absofrigginlutely NO BLOODY IDEA what we go through at the servos and shops on a weekly basis! :mad:

Dingo, I was watching the news the other night and Mr. Costello was asked about the rising price of petrol, to which he responded it is still managable for most people. He was then asked when was the last time he filled-up, and he said "Well I filled-up 6 weeks ago and got it for $1.32/ltr". The worst thing was the really smug grin when he sais it, what a tosser!...:mad:

Steve, I think our Apricot intends to point the thing at a bit of innocent steel, not the genitalia of heretics.

Talking of Jesuits, Joeys did Iggy's, again on Saturday

Pet hates...I've avoided this because I don't want to get started! And a lot of its been covered, especially politicians!!:mad: Wouldn't give them the steam off my p155....

Slow drivers in the wrong lane etc.

People that just seem to want to talktalktalktalkblahblah, like they have to fill in the silence around them. You know the type, you can't even get a word in to say "See ya!".

Always being 100mm short after I've cut something!

But what I really hate is when I cut myself, or take skin off a knuckle, its always in a part that keeps getting hit, or stretched and the wound doesn't heal...why can't it happen in some rarely used bit!!?

Oh, and whingers!!

Cheers,

Sitting at the traffic lights and when they turn green every car in front of you insists on letting the car in front of them get 3 or 4 car lengths in front of them before they take off

Courts which do not reflect the wishes of the people.

Toes aka pollies who think that once elected this is a "job" for life.

All those who have forgotten what "a fair go" actually means.

So called "paint artists" who vandalise other people's property.

Those who think that because they have paid their rego they can now do as they like on the road and then get angry when they don't get their own way.

I work one day a week on a voluntary basis in an opshop. Normally we close at 3.30pm but today, because my wife is still not 100 % we closed at 3.20PM allowing me to beat the build up of traffic.

So just as we were leaving some wanker, and probably only a looker, knocks on the door and demanded to be let in as it wasn't our official closing time.

When told that if we were being paid we would have stayed open. But as we weren't tough luck and that maybe she ought to donate her time as well so that we could stay open to the official closing time, she let of a tirade and stormed of in a huff.

Or the lookers who come in to fill time, look at everything and then walk out without buying and you know they are there to fill in time by the faces they pull.:mad:

Both types are oxygen thieves.

I know what you mean, Peter. Some people do not appreciate the work of volunteers, nor understand the personal sacrifices that they make.

December 2001, bushfires in the Lower Blue Mountains area. I'm a volunteer firefighter with a Warrimoo Bushfire Brigade, and it so happens that fire impacts on a street of Warrimoo. By the time we get there (it was extremely sudden, and we were a couple of towns away protecting other houses) there is smoke everywhere and a fair amount of confusion. There were already some other fire trucks there too.

Two houses were already alight by the time we got there, and we could hear some people in one of the burning houses. They weren't aware that their roof was on fire, so my brother and I went inside and got them out. It was a father and son. We also pulled an elderly lady from the other house.

This was probably the worst day of my life as we had no water pressure, and we had to watch eight houses burn to the ground . We saved heaps, mind you, by pumping from pools and tanks.

The bit that peed me off, and still does to this day, is the response we got from the wife/mother of the father and son that we got out of the burning house. She ranted and raved and carried on a right treat about us being incompetent and not saving her house. No thanks for saving her family, just abuse about losing her house.

I'm a volunteer. I spend my time training, and my time fighting fires. Whilst we were saving her family, my wife wanted me at my house which was only a few streets away. Where was this woman when her house burned down? Why, she decided to leave, of course. Why should she have a responsibility for her house?

She still gives us grief almost five years later, hassling us if she sees us training and even heckled her next door neighbour who since the fire became a member of the Brigade.

She doesn't know it, but her husband gives us $100 every year and says 'Don't tell my missus'. We don't

Gotta say that the rest of the community were really good though.
