Just thought I'd start this one.. People calling any old 2 door car a Coup theres one on ebay now, perfectly nice Jatta 2 door SALOON, whcih the seller has typically mis-described as a 2 door Coupe (He obviously has not worked out how to type ). As far as I know there was never a car that VW called a Jetta Coup so why do people call them such.. You often see BMW E30 'Coupe's again BMW never made such a car, it always turns out to be an E30 2 door saloon, it would also seem every E21 was a 'coupe' (they were all 2 door saloons). Why do they do this? It's also a deliberate peice of misleading inforamtion And the other hate is pronuncing Coup as 'coup', as in chicken shed its pronounced Coupay, the egrave at the end onf the spelling tells you that!
I can see this thread becoming popular The first to spring to mind is "Bargain" on ebay auctions - how the f*ck do they know it's a bargain if the price hasn't yet been decided?
I get annoyed by people getting pedantic about silly things that really don't matter Ebay "rare" has to be a favourite
Current pet hate; The fickle mind of the female of the species... Oh, and the person who continuely thinks it`s Ok to park half-way across my drive...hopefully the smashed numberplate, and scuffed/cracked bumper he received on Friday will show him the error of his ways...
Pet hate - when the duvet is not in the corner of the duvet cover. Have to sort it before I can sleep!
Percent being used rather than percentage point, or vice a versa. Really does my head in, done by a lot of people who really should know better, and yes, it does make a massive difference. example: last year 10% of people were burgled. This year 15% were. That's a rise of 5%. It's actually a rise of 50%, or a rise of 5 percentage points. Half the time it's probably deliberate
Wallys who drive with their front fogs on No it isn't cool, and Yes it is against the law!! On the forum it has to be people who describe their car as a MKI, MKII or MKIII etc etc! Why use roman numerals? Is there something wrong with using the numbers 1-6??
I hate scart leads. I hate people who think that religion is something that they need to share/spread. Possibly not in that order.
My employers have ****ed me off today. I'm carrying the whole sales team. They did nothing in August, so I killed myself on the last week of the month to make sure we hit target so THE WHOLE TEAM made bonus in August. Took the first week of Sept off, came back and they'd done nothing total sales for the first week of Sept 0. So worked like a madman when I came back and single handedly did half the teams target in 7 working days. Knackered, sure enough I woke up this morning with tonislitis, it's my body's why of telling me to take it easy, get it 2-3 times a year in a bad year so I e-mailed in saying I was sick, but would work from home via Blackberry / Internet. But no, "You need to rest up, have a day off sick, see you in the morning" fair enough I though and fired up the playstation. Just got a e-mail "do you want to take today as a sickday (unpaid) or a Holiday" WTF! So I used one of my Holidays because I can't afford a day off on the money they pay me. Course I'll be up for 5:30 in the morning for a breakfast meeting at 6:30, aka 2.5 hours unpaid overtime, every week, for the last 6 months.... or 65 hours unpaid time for the benefit of the team and they wont give me 8 off to rest up from saving their arses last month and this.
Websites selling/adverting things without prices, it's 2010 not 1987 ffs, I want the price on screen not have to phone you or create a log in to get one retards. Oh and anyone who moans town centres are dead when the local council rape you for parking and greedy landlords/companies asking ridiculous rates for rental because they were greedy when times were better.
i hate my next door neighbours pet dog for keep crapping in my garden, i have a massive garedn and cant afford to fence the bottom to keep it out but my cat does quite a good job, the dog(a ****zu i think) thought it was hard by chasing my cat, until he stopped, raised his back and lashed out a swift clip round the ear to which the dog fled up the garden with a bloody ear and dented pride and beleive me the cats weapons are very sharp and he hones them too.
