Random Rants

@Giles I mean they do pour the drinks with their hands. haha

[ARNC]

@Giles I’m definitely with you on this sort of thing. Use of hands is inevitable until Costa is staffed by robots or highly trained dogs/cats/goldfish/anything else lacking hands. Everyone seems to be in on it though, not just Costa.

Another one that gets me is “specially selected” or similar. Selected because it’s good, it’s cheap, the seller thinks their average customer won’t know the difference?

I guess we’re back to the old question - why can’t everyone be like IH

[Giles]

One of my fave bête noirs is:

"Customers who bought this also bought these"

Did they fuck? Shop just wants rid......

[Giles]

Anyone actually know what this means?

washed my truck today, only to reveal that some low life hit it and didn't say anything. judging by the dent id say it happened at work

[ARNC]

@Giles for some reason the picture didn’t show for me until today. I think it’s a bird flu thing - if the birds are locked up too long to prevent transmission they stop being free range.

[tody]

same here, didn‘t see the picture before!

Just lost my 10+ year old William Henry folder to TSA…no time to go back and check bag. Was in a pocket of folded jeans that I didn’t check.

[Giles]

OUCH.....

Why o why has the tops on semi skimmed milk changed from green to white?
This tricks my brain into thinking there is no top!
As a guy if a certain age i’m still struggling with the opral fruit and marathon conversions …
it’s too much..

[Bigdog]

Why oh why don’t I buy IH stuff when I have the chance?? The regrets are pilling up.

[Matt]

Don’t worry too much @Bigdog I’ve learned there’s always going to be something great in the next collection and anything you missed out on will eventually pop up on the 2nd hand market in your size if u keep your eyes open.

don't even know if this belongs in the watch thread or as a rant.

the fucking rolex service centre won't take in a watch without a bracelet! I understand if it's in the same country and someone forgets to bring it in together. but my bracelet isn't even in the same country (left it back in australia) and they would not even budge. I'm there to service my watch not the fucking bracelet. they'll charge you 2k for a new bracelet if you still want to service your watch. chucked a hissy fit and left. ffs.

[Matt]

I think that belongs in the First World Problems thread.

[Bigdog]

@Matt Thank’s There wide open and looking first thing every morning.

[Kasi]

Years of buying Iron Heart

[dinobarnesberlin]

You win all the prizes man----

Get out of shower, Mrs H hands me Baby H, says "hold her for a minute" and heads to the other bathroom. Baby nuzzles into my chest and proceeds to vomit all over both of us. Cleaning baby while dripping vomit. Have to have a second shower, late for work now, had to leave wife to clean up vomity areas.

What kind of evolution would produce young that can't hold their liquids?

I feel you @EdH - Happy Millie needs changing, I take her to changing station, she proceeds to have a full blown meltdown, squirming as much as possible, then spews over every piece of clothing she's wearing and mine, so needs full change while still proceeding to almost throw herself off the changing station. Danni is confused as to why she is now stressed, holds Millie and she is suddenly happy again
