SPAM random annoying things

[Moriath]

Feel your pain Yuck. Had problems with trains today, and am now in a "football train" going home. The drunk idiot density is very high. Atm they're singing a song about penises to the tune of No Limits by 2 Unlimited. One of the NL's more shite dance acts from the 90's.

You love it.

 

[caLLous]

Today I learned 2 Unlimited are (or were) Dutch.

And now for whatever reason I'm listening to Spaceman by Babylon Zoo.

Moved to the music thread because I'm anything but annoyed listening to this stuff.

I am now in a train. I left a party in Amsterdam at 22.30 to be in it. The train app says my best possible arrival in my home town is 01.30. I am doing something wrong here

Yes, you are leaving a party at 22:30.

We survived our foray with the public. Only one piss stained old bloke who fortunately sat away from us and downwind. He read a couple of magazines, called "Professional Pensions" and "Smart Investor" or something, probably minted. He was carrying has magazines in 3 old dirty carrier bags.

The common cold

Fucking public transport bastards!

 

[Moriath]

Hope it didnt spoil your cooking

 

[~Yuckfou~]

Nope I've woken up to this cold. Meal was yum.

The way Euro types don't use the decimal point correctly.

 

[caLLous]

I agree that it's a bit weird using a comma (after having grown up using a full stop) but when every single other nation (bar 1 or 2) in Europe does it, you can hardly say that it's the "Euro types" doing it incorrectly.

 

[Raven]

It doesn't matter how many people do it, it is still incorrect

You just can't have 1.000.00 as it A, just doesn't work and B, looks shit, untidy and none-specific. It should be 1,000.00 or 1000.00 if you are lazy.

The Dutch types seem to do it correctly but Ze Germans and the Danes are getting on my tits today. Trying to sort out our intrastat reporting and its a right pain doing anything in excel when they have been creative with the decimal point.

 

[caLLous]

Nowhere would use 1.000.00. It would be 1,000.00, 1000.00, 1.000,00 or 1 000,00. Apparently the standard in the UK is to actually use thin spaces instead of commas for thousand separators but it's largely ignored outside the construction industry.

Yeah euro swap the comma and full stop.

Customer service quality. You could speak to one person that doesn't understand sh*t, and then talk to another person that gets everything you're saying!

 

[soze]

Selling my Mac on eBay and have it up for just under a grand (£1500 worth) I just checked and I have 9 rejected bids the lowest £100 the highest £503 (same guy offered £501 - £502 - £503). I have it up for nearly a grand what is up with £100 offers! It is rude.

 

[Bodhi]

People who treat motorway junctions like any other junction, and stop at the end then try to pull out into traffic.

Some tard did that thus morning joining the M6 at Junction 12, straight into the path of an artic! Which then had to swerve into lane 2, and so on. I was in Lane 3 and had left plenty if room to stop, but I am suspecting many pants were soiled in the process.

Gets on my fucking tits when people don't use the whole slip road, happens most days on the M8 into Edinburgh.

Another driving one from today - cunts driving in pea soup fog with no fucking lights on. I can accept rear fog lights not being on, but no lights at all? Get in the fucking sea.

1.000.000 is a million, you blithering idiots

1.000,00 is a thousand with two decimals, you sad cretins

You are supposed to drive on the right

It is called an elevator, not a liftidy-uppidy

It is not an upsy-stairsy, but an escalator

Yelling "shop!" upon entering a store is rude and insensitive to the 16y old smoking a doobie in the back

Bacon is best crisp

 

[Tom]

Shouldn't you be killing whales with bacon or something?

You are a dane, shouldn't you put it as

1 000 000,00 (million)
1 000,00 (thousand)

,00 in those cases are superfluous

or do danes generally use . ?

We put a full stop after each thousand and a comma between the whole numbers and the decimals. Do Swedes put a space in between?

And saying Danes kill whales is like saying Londoners wear kilts and play the bagpipe

This! Also, you didn't mention their shit measurement-system and that it's called chips. (I agree crisps sounds better but adding it nontheless)

 

[dysfunction]

In South Africa they call crisp chips as well. And Chips are called "Slap Chips" (pronounced slup chips) meaning soft chips as opposed to the crisp ones

 

[Tom]

I know a South African bloke, I work with him occasionally. His name is Jeff, but owing to his accent we all call him Jiff.
