Annoying but trivial things - Room 101 stuff


Recommended Posts

^ They could also cause an awful lot of anxiety at an RTA if present in a car in which no infant is travelling. How long do the Emergency Services search for the non-existant infant before deciding that none were present despite the sign. Even blankets, toys and child seats in a childless car can have the same effect. Nope, i think the signs are fine in general as a quirky car accessory, but not to be relied upon.

 

Anyhoo, annoying things, another packaging related one is when, particularly on desserts, you get a little pull tab on the clear packaging, which never works and always tears off leaving the product sealed. *grrrr*

The same could be said of the learner driver that the L plate denotes was driving the car at the time when the car crashed and only one person was found at the scene :wink:

Xenophobic Scottish twats who bore the tits off you about being 'true Scots' and that everybody loves the Scottish on account of their friendliness, then want to beat you up because you insist you are a Shetlander and won't admit to being Scottish.

I always say thank you to the driver when I get off the bus. I don't shout it, I just turn to him and say thanks. I'm the last person off the bus at the end of the road, it'd be exceptionally rude not to say thank you I think.

I always say 'thank you' or 'cheers' when departing a bus. 'Thank you driver' annoys me though. I am not entirely sure why. I suppose it has something to do with the fact that it is unlikely you would be thanking anybody else at that precise moment in time.

 

At the end of the day it is common courtesy though. No different from saying thank you to a waiter or a shop assistant. Sometimes a 'thanks' can go a long way.

Baby On Board Stickers!

^ Useful for emergency services to know there was a child in the car.

 

they would be IF they were taken out when the baby isn't in the car
