go to enjoy a nice slice of freshly baked bread, aim to coat it with vegemite and butter ......the butter is so bloody hard that it rips the bread and turns an enjoyable childish pastime into an exercise in frustration.
go to watch a sunday night with sir David Attenborough only to find the outlaws have been invited to partake in a meal right at that time! stupid waste of time post.....yep! I agree.......but it sure beats pummelling your gums about how bad the Ford is! whack your grizzles in here and waste a bit of time with me!......never know, if you're not careful, you may just have some fun!

Grrrr. I just can't believe this. I parrallel parked in town last night. Had 2 beers at my watering hole. Headed back across the road to the car. Was somewhat distracted by a dressed up dude who stands outside a restaurant and also, sitting just up the way, a young back packer girl. Hopped in the ute, had to reverse back a couple of meters so as to make clearance to swing out into the road and backed straight into a hire car Camry.
For Pete's sake, totally did not even notice the Camry parked behind me. Total blank on it's presence. First I knew was the clang. Darn. Just a few dents on the bonnet and a cracked headlight, but here goes a few hard earned dollars. If bad, insurance will cover. Thus ends my gripe. Could be worse, learnt from it, but damn. Cheers Poppa. You can always get the D.A. dvd or find it on the Net.

One neighbouring house has either parties or domestics every friday and saturday nights and get away with it but I have three people over for a couple quiet ones on a Saturday arvo and get evils from all the other neighbours.
And they reported my dog to the council for barking, when he's usually barking at the party/domestic neighbours who have stirred him up in the past (so he now hates them). |

Oh man... this could get interesting....
We have this person at work who insists that when we get take away in those little plastic containers that the only place to put the lid is to flip it around and put it under the container like a coaster... So, when we get some curries, or salads or dips and the underside of the lid is nicely sloshed they don't fricken get that you then need to wipe the bloody bottom of the container should you want to put the leftovers in the fridge for later.... What else... you try to find a shop or company that actually has a real land line phone number, its great to offer a 1800 or 1300 number, but useless to anyone on the road that have an 'unlimited cap' mobile that does not include the premium numbers. Nice truck DJM83, battery or petrol?

I was following an XR6 Turbo with P plates this morning.
LH brake light wasn't working so I pull up beside him at a set of lights and say, "Gidday mate, your LH brake light isn't working." I've done it before (I'm nice sometimes) but have never been given the finger and a F off as a reply. :( |

People that can not pull up right behind others at red lights.. The lights will be red for ages then one moves up then the next then the next. If your back in the line you end up driving 10 metres 2 minutes after you've been stop. Every set of lights. Annoying when you in an old Manual or have a trailer load of gear for home reno's

Oh wow, I've got plenty of 'pet hates' to dish out but it will take me hours, so ill give my top 3 lol
1: For some reason I hate when people (people i dont know, neighbours visitors) park out the front of my house. It's perfectly legal and its not my property but it just grinds my gears! 2: I hate getting into cars that are full of rubbish. I hate that everytime you turn a corner all you can hear are empty bottles rolling and empty rappers crunchy. I understand its their car but doesn't the filth of half eaten foods in a confined space get to you at all? 3: My wife makes a tea then proceeds to put the used tea bag in the sink. Now 400mm away from the sink is the food waste bin... Why not kill 2 birds with 1 stone and throw it in there straight up!? Everytime i go to wash up I gotta throw out multiple tea bags... Probably no biggy to most but unfortunately does my head in! Lol I feel a little better now |

kids who drink half a can at parties then open another one!.....good job I love every one of them to bits.... dogs who leave their bones on the back mat right where I step out in bare feet!

It ****** me off that I took a job for less money to increase my chances of a full time job in the mines..only to find out once I've started I'm getting another pay cut and reduced hours.. Then find out the people at blackwater McDonald's are earning nearly as much as me! Now I don't know if I should stick it out or move on.. Like the job, hate the politics..
Also I bought a falcon because I thought hey would be reasonably cheap to do up.... WRONG! My jeep costs less and goes more places Getting my post deleted without explanation, whilst other just as irrelevant posts have been left behind ;) I annoy myself sometimes. |

Drivers that drive along 80-90km/h in 100 zone in areas you're unable to pass.. hit the overtaking lane, all the sudden these little matchbox cars are able to do 110-120+km/h.. then drop back to 80-90km/h...

This is 2wks ago, but my day was ruined by a kebab, yep a kebab. Drove 400km o offload the kiddies to Grandma, and the one thing I always get is a kebab, best place in town (I have eaten many a kebab lol), so I get to the shop at lunchtime, during school holidays, whilst waiting for somebody else to park, an old couple hop in their car next to me to leave, but alaas, I can't reverse back as I am blocked in by a line of cars, so the car behind me get's said spot. I drive around like a moron and finally find a spot, and it is the spot I like as the pillar is on my side, so I enjoy using it to keep my car as far away as the middle bay, and it can't get hit by the person next to me as they too have to avoid the pillar.
So I begin to pull into the bay, yep I have enough space and crrrrrrrrrrack, I swiped the pillar with the corner of the front end. So I get out and say no biggie, deal with it later, cmon kids let's get lunch. Go and get my kebab, drive to mums, sit down and take a bite.........not sure what happened, but it was the worst kebab I had ever had, I even got 3 bits of chicken bone for good measure. So to get the kebab I was so desperatley wanting, I had to drive 400km, put up with the usual car park antics, scrape my car on a pillar and then the kebab was horrid anyway. Might sound petty, but honestly, I went from a 2 day trip, to dropping the kids with mum, staying the night and leaving at 6am the next morning. Canceled all plans to catch up with friends etc. All because of a Kebab hahahahahahahahahaha |

FOOTBALL.
Sick of getting assaulted with the garbage. Sports report on news should be renamed to 95% football report. Getting stuck in football traffic makes me want to shoot people. People could buy a dog and watch that chase a ball around the backyard all day and it would be less intrusive on everyone's lives.

People who can't be happy unless they have somthing to winge about
This isn't ago at any one here or any of these posts, but I have a guy at work who is always looking for the negative so he has somthing to ***** about My gripe is a little like Poppa's I LOVE a crusty bread roll crustier the better, like a wood fired jobie with real butter (not marg) and Vegemite, I love it, then my son gets told to go on a glutin free diet to stop all his digestive discomfort, so now my wife has read eleventy squillion books on celiacs and gluten intolerance and how a lot of people don't even know their intolerant so now were all on this freaken gluten free diet so that's the end of my Vegemite roll, that's the end of a freaken good pizza, that's the end of shinitzel that's the end of every thing I hold near and dear to my heart. Even freaken BBQ sauce is gone :( I love my son but fairs fair

I'll limit it to 3 tonight:
1. Turn your friggin sound off on your stupid friggin jewelmunchsmashing game in the middle of peak hour while on the train. If I can hear it half a friggin carriage away it's TOO LOUD and as much as I love Star Wars I don't want to hear 'PEW PEW PEW' lazer guns for a whole hour!! 2. Keep your filthy feet OFF the seats! 3. KEEP THE F LEFT ON THE HIGHWAY!@_#*()%)(%*#_)( . /ragequit |

trying to load a bunch of photos into photobucket and it decides to put them all into the wrong album even though it had the name of the album i wanted in the "īn-to" box. now i will have to move over 100 photos one at the time because there dosnt seem to be an option to move multiple pics together.
photo bucket used to be great to use . why did they change it and fleck it all up. might have to start looking for another host site i think.
