@MajorRage jebus, you and @nta both on the rag this week.
If I was I’d be using waitrose sanitary products so I’d barely even notice and still be able to go swimming, horse riding ....

You shop at Waitrose don't ya?
God, that's another thing which gets on my goat - bloody Waitrose shoppers who think shopping there enhances their social status.
"Oh Tristan found some Fig & Guava Focaccia there last week. He likes to feed to the ducks".
Fluffybunnies
Lmaaao!
They do have lovely stuff though! Mmmm.
Mrs Meldrew & I actually heard a woman say this in the Saltash Waitrose a year or two back.
"Giles, Do we have enough organic muesli on the yacht.....?"
Man that made me laugh. People who make comments like that are usually "fur coat and no knickers" as my wife would say.
So more this:
Than this:
To stay on topic - people who call boats without sails yachts. Yes it has changed over time but it is still wrong.

@MajorRage said in Grumpy Old Man:
It's 7pm. Regardless of where you shop, what sort of heathen has muesli for dinner?
Sports car owners.

Jeez. Don't get me started on all those cringeworthy sanitary protection ads and how "happy" you will be.
And why the fuck do they use blue water?

@Machpants That's hilarious. I worked with a few of them. A couple of Aussies and some yanks. The RAF were mostly O.K even the Red Arrows guys (who ocassionaly did the hand thing).
My standard line when asked what I did was aluminium tubing transport.

@Snowy There really is no point in using flying jet fighters as a chat up line, no one ever believes you! Dolphin trainer, Canadian hydro engineers, lighthouse painters (I do the red, my buddy does the white) much more consistent results
Close to 100% I’d guess. Shame really.

Airline pilot - gets either a "piston wristed gibbon" look, or a Tui billboard look. Just not the required responses if you are trying to pull (so to speak). Pretty sure my wife rolled her eyes when she found out what I did in the first instance (after the aluminium tubing transport, then I was in the shit for lying to her, but not actually a lie).
Getting a bit off topic, but like to hear some of your success stories. So, best job to impress a girl? We have ruled out pilot (although @RL seems to be "on board", yes, pun intended).

What the fuck has this thread become ?
British shopping habits ?
Any talk of shopping makes me grumpy which conveniently brings me to my next point.
CHRISTMAS CAROLS IN MID NOVEMBER !!!!
Fuuuuuuuccccckkkkk Offffffffffff !!!!!
Agreed, what the fuck is an easy peeler?
To add to my list, I hate it when a food place only partially tells you whats in something on a menu. For example, you'll order bacon and egg burger for breakfast that says bacon and egg and BBQ sauce on the menu, and then it will come out with the mustard, mayo, and half a bag of mesclun salad dumped over the top.

Yes let's return to ginga båstards cats. Stupid ivory skulled twunt came in last night and dropped a bird on me while I was sleeping. He was on my leg at the time and I recoiled so violently that I sent him flying into the wall (it's bloody hot here now so no sheets). The bird was just a chick and was ok but I'll bet he brings it on tommorrow as well. One solution is a bell but then the stupid prick will probably keep me up all night dancing around with that thing on. Dipshit.

I hate office birthday celebrations. A bunch of people singing a shit song half-heartedly to justify getting a piece of shitty cake afterwards.
The "it's your birthday so you have to supply the cake" nonsense. I never let people in the office know when my birthday is. The cake is a lie.

Cat's busy thinking you're an ungrateful prick.

I'm quite enjoy the stories of the Ginger Bastard Cat. Have you considered turning your adventures in a Garfield-like series of cartoons? Less fat and lazy, more evil bastard. I'd subscribe.

Chilled Foods at a supermarket (Big Fresh) worked for me, still with her 24 years later. She must have been impressed with the way I handled the chicken breasts.
