Threw my back out. I feel like a cripple! 95% disabled and my son is taking advantage of the situation and trashed about 95% the apartment

Fuck

A dislike and a funny needed there

 

[DaGaffer]

Dont see what the problem is its his house his rules

Im sure the vaper has some things he does not like other doing in his home

Would have done the same tbh (though the friends i have who vape all go outside without being asked!)

If have thrown him out for being massively uncool. It's not fucking Star Wars, you look like a knob.

 

[Scouse]

Yeah. My vaping and smoking mates have no issues at all.

Bloke acts like that? = Cunt off the friend list.

 

[Yoni]

Getting up at 5am and it is -7 outside really sucks, however wierdly im looking forward to being in work for 2 days this week as i won't be back in the office until 18th after tomorrow (Norway for a week *cry*)

 

[Yoni]

We are smokers and we don't smoke in our home.... In the summer we don't even smoke on our balcony.... If anyone were to light up or vape and not stop I would ask them to go outside..... Although no one has ever done that...

 

[TdC]

Having to go to work

 

[Bodhi]

Only thing we ask is that if people want a cigarette they go into the back garden, however after about the 5th drink even that gets a bit flexible. Would never send someone outside to vape though - we're not animals after all. If some guests come round and a small part of the living room smells of blueberries for around 30 seconds, I think I can probably cope.

 

[Raven]

Meh, up to the host really.

If he went home in a grump after being politely asked to do it outside then fuck him.

I smoke (cigs and vape depending on my mood) but understand people don't want to either smell it or inhale my sloppy seconds.

Militant smokers are as bad as militant anti-smokers.

 

[Scouse]

@Bodhi Your characterisation of people that would rather not have someone else's habits pushed on them when there's a perfectly equitable compromise as animals makes you the intolerant one.

@Raven's bang on about militants there.

 

[old.user4556]

What the fuck am I reading. Surely it's only basic respect and courtesy to abide by the host's requests?

If I go round to a mate's house who's paid a shit load of money for nice carpets and he says "would you mind taking your shoes off in the hall?" I'll happily do it. I'm not going to get out my 4 seasons walking boots and say "FUCK YOU JOCK" and go home.

For the record, I insisted my mates smoked out the kitchen window of my flat and they were more than happy to do so. There's no need to be cunty in either direction.

 

[Scouse]

Apparently this expectation makes the host an animal.

Oh do shut up you cretin. All I said was I don't see why I would want to send someone outside to vape? Cigarettes yes, as the smell lingers and isn't entirely pleasant - but vaping? Really don't see the issue frankly.

Even when I used to vape no one really had an issue with me puffing away in their houses. Family all found it quite amusing and friends all smoked or vaped anyway.

 

[Scouse]

Really don't see the issue frankly.

There's a number I could point at - different folks, different strokes after all - smokers previously couldn't see the 'issue' with smoking so it's hardly surprising vapers are just as backward.

But either way that isn't really the point is it? Calling a host an animal because you don't like their rules in their own house makes you a cretin.

 

[Bodhi]

I didn't say I had a problem with people setting their own rules in their own houses, I just said it was a shit rule and not one I would ever enforce, as it seems a bit pathetic. However if people want to have silly rules then please feel free.

Interesting you taking the moral high ground about people vaping indoors. Tell me, did you go outside to set fire to your scrotum a few days ago? Because I can gather burning public hair is a lot more of an unpleasant odour than vaping.

Its not a "silly rule". Just because you think it is doesn't make it so. Its not even a subjective thing, its objectively sensible not to allow them; you could have anything in a...vaping...stick..thing (I don't what you call them) so why would I have it in my house?

 

[Deebs]

If I am not prepared to smoke/vape in my house then no other person is allowed. Period.

 

[Yoni]

My Mum smokes everywhere in her house and although convenient and warm drives me potty... I have to wash everything twice when I get home... But it is her house and her rules....

Absolutely, and we've been on the other side; when our kids were babies my missus had to stop going to her cousins' house because they all smoked like chimneys and weren't going to stop just because there were a couple of infants in the house. The interesting thing was that they got pissed off when my missus stopped visiting, but at the same time, when she told them why, they admitted they wouldn't stop, saying "it's our house etc.", which when my wife pointed out was perfectly reasonable, but meant she couldn't visit, they still got the proper hump.

When the grandchildren are in the house they are banned from the kitchen if she wants to smoke so she isn't all bad bless her

girls. specifically, when a girl magically thanks you profusely for some tiny thing, whereas if you actually go out of your way to do good things for them they either regard your activities as perfectly normal and/or annoying

 

[Raven]

The fact that on some games the key C is used for crouching.

 

[caLLous]

Luckily you're not a peasant* and you can remap the keys.

*even though I know you actually own a console...

Amazon Prime.

I signed up for a free trial at Christmas because of the savings on delivery, but it automatically charged me £80 the other day.

"Fine" I said, since it has some stuff I wanted to watch on it plus over the 12 months the "free next day delivery" would add up over time. So today, I went to order some stuff and to my surprise "not eligible for Amazon Prime" on the delivery options. That was slightly annoying.

"Fine" I said, since I had allllll those Prime movies / TV shows to watch, but realised that whilst there was "free" Prime content, not all of it was free and had to be paid for per movie. That was quite annoying.

"Fine" I said, even those two annoying things to one side, they were touting "unlimited photo storage!!!!" which for £80 per year is a good bit cheaper than my "1TB for £120 a year" Google Drive account. I thought to myself "wow, unlimited photo storage for £80 a year, that's great - I can live with the annoyances!" - except, it's not unlimited photo storage because it only supports certain file formats such as Canon, Nikon and Sony with Fuji, Olympus and others not supported. So I came home tonight to find a message on my PC "5GB used, GIFV AMAZOn MOAR MONEY".

So between the wanky Prime content, the scarce Prime delivery and the not-unlimited-in-the-slightest photo storage, Amazon Prime is a blob of partially crusty spunk on the pointy lipstick of a dog's cock.

So you signed up for a free trail of something with out researching what you were getting, and (you fell into the trap that everyone does) you didn't cancel it before the 30days were up

This is the random annoying thread, not the "give me a lecture" thread.

It's advertised as unlimited photo storage, it's clearly not.

 

[caLLous]

And you're advertised as having a sexy sister yet there has been no proof forthcoming...

 

[old.user4556]

Another thing, if only some products are available for Prime delivery, how can you possibly predict what will, or will not be available for Prime delivery? Absolute bag of shite.

If Fuji decide to change the file extension, or metadata of their RAW files, that means Cloud Drive stops working. Even bigger bag of shite.

Hee hee, you know it would have been @Scouse saying it if I hadn't got there first
