Things that piss you off Page 1,302

People who make a claim against the council (tax payer) for damage to their vehicle after hitting a bollard.

"It shouldn't have been where it was".

Well it was and you drove in to it, you blind c**t!

Is that a thing?? I've never heard of anyone doing that. Claiming for pot hole damage I'm aware of (which seems legit).

Absolutely genuine.

And they really think they are justified.

Pot holes? Oh yes! Plenty of them.

Mind you, insurance law isn't as simple(!) as 'normal' law.

More balance of probability than what's reasonable.

I wonder what happened to the 50 men who "voluntarily" worked in the nuclear reactors the first few weeks after the Fukushima catastrophe (I'd bet they're either dead or morbidly sick). Why does our media keep silence about this?

The radioactivity turned them into superheroes whose identity must be kept secret?

Here you go:

"Over 20 workers were injured by 18 March.[1] Three workers were exposed to radiation and two were rushed to a hospital with up to 180 mSv, which is less than the maximum 250 mSv that the government allowed for workers at the plant.[12] Both workers, one in his twenties and one in his thirties, were from Kandenko and were regular workers at Fukushima II nuclear power plant.[10] Another worker was from a contract company of Kandenko.[54]"

I can feel a Hollywood blockmuster movie coming.

Esther McVey. There's something truly abominable about a Scouse Tory.

I claimed for pothole damage.

The police told me to stop smoking dope, whilst wearing a shell suit.

If she really was Scouse, wouldn't she be called Esther McVey-ey-ey-ey-ey...?

The fact that my neighbour hasn't got in his recycling box yet. They came on Friday and yet it's still out there now. Sitting on his lawn like a plastic wart. I've a good mind to sneak out later and pinch it.

Perhaps he has died in his sleep & you should get the Police to break his door down.

BCG burka wearers. Those who hide their online status. Why ffs?

I often look at the forum homepage to see who is on line but can't see the real situation.

I never knew you could do that.

Apparently there is currently myself, David Salisbury and 35 guests online.

35 guests?! At a quarter to 4 in the morning? Are these insomniacs unable to get back to sleep until they have found the answer to some obscure query concerning an ancient British sitcom? Or is the BCG some sort of internet equivalent of a shop doorway where random itinerants pitch up for the night?

I have to admit, I've got no idea why this upsets people. What business of yours is it to know who is online?

I don't like people who flaunt their status online. They often seem distant and aloof, reproaching peoples posts with silence. They've seen the post, they're at the top of the online status leader board, but they're too haughty to come down off Mount Olympus and mingle. The swine. No, give me your cheeky lovable online status-hiders any day.
