Unhappy Some People Are Ar$eholes...

Went to see the Police @ Twickenham tonight (great concert ) along with wifey & sprog who is 8.

On the way out after the concert, some overweight munter travelling in the opposite direction sees Ez & says in a very loud voice to her equally overweight mate

"Who can afford a ticket for a child?"

??? WTF ???

I'm not an agressive person but I turned round and shouted after her "I can so F*** OFF!" It really annoyed me. I earn my money just like she must do (she won't be with someone who pays for her that's for sure) and if I chose to spend it on a day out with my family thats what I want to do. Just the same way it is her right to stuff her face full of food at every opportunity but I don't walk past her saying "Look at the fat b****" now do I?

Where do some people get off on being ar$eholes?

The sort of peope who's priority is not clearing out the pie counter at the local bakers each day by the sounds of things.

some people are just poor tramps

i had a right barney with some taxi driver who was complaining because his usual basic wash had went up from £2.20 to £2.40

normally i dont even bother with them as i know where this convo will lead but i was having a bad day

taxi ramper "well what do i get extra for 20p"
me "well nothing mate its all down to inflation and increased business costs"
taxi ramper " you would sharp start kicking off if my taxi fare went up 20p"
me "doubt it mate, i wouldn't even have the ***** to complain over 20p i`m not that poor"
taxi ramper "well i`m not coming back i`m going to the other one where its still £2.20"



just been told that the other local branches price is going up to match ours anyway soon

or how about the one last week that complained that the £2.40 wash didn't clean the car properly and when informed that the higher programs give additional soap and such said
"i don't want to pay the extra for them ones"

Devils Advocate here Stickster

Why offer the cheap wash if it isnt going to do the job ??

Irrespective of the cost it should still clean the car.

Would a hose pipe do as good a job cleaning a car as using a bucket and sponge?

Pay more or work harder for a better wash IMO.

some people want a quick flick over to remove light dust,

some people want to pay extra for soap and other products to remove more stubborn dirt/flys/ bird droppings.

That seems a very reasonable price to me-I would use your place if I was near you.
