Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

You tell them your maximum price and they bombard you with houses that are 20-30k over.
Nice of them to cover the difference. :newthumb:

West Ham FB group called Long Live the Boleyn ( i think).

Jesus Christ, the amount of knicker wetting on there make the transfer thread on here look tame. Moyes is ****, his football is ****, he's a yes man and they are asset stripping the club with all of these sales. All after one game against the league champions and with 20 odd days left in the transfer window. The mind boggles.

I wouldn't mind so much if these were youngsters, but they are all 50 plus. Idiots.

Watch it really ramp up over the weekend, when we inevitably lose to Forest, courtesy of a Lingard hatrick, let a few more players go without replacing them, buy Phil Jones to solve our defensive injury crisis, Declan puts in a transfer request, Scamacca goes AWOL, and Sullivan announces he's staying for another ten years..

Toasters.

Fancied some buttered toast this morning. Fresh loaf on the side. Try to pop a couple of slices in the toaster. Bread too long. End up forcing the bread down once I clicked it down. Bread scew wiff and where the bread buckled, one side almost burnt, the other side white as a sheet. Edges all whitish as well.

They have made most toasters now so you can fit width in, we need length. I know you can buy toaster sized bread but...

You need to pay your staff more. Or discipline them for poor performance.

It's somewhat akin to turning up at the pub where you always score.

Only to find your main man has not turned up. :crylol:

Comments based on ‘feelings’ in general. We have measurements, science and facts. But hey ‘I’ know better.

Great isn’t it.
