Tongue in cheek. But we are all guilty! Aren’t we. Be honest. Anyone want to say they never have moaned?
Today’s moan. I’ll kick off.
sodding people on their mobile phones crossing roads completely oblivious that cars use roads too. Happened to me yesterday. I had time to come to a controlled stop. The numpty on his phone didn’t even realise (or chose not to) acknowledge what happened. Had I not stopped, it would be me in front of his Lordhip explaining my road usage skills whilst he would have had half a day out with the undertaker.
Any other moans? Go for it.
👍

Many years ago a tee shirt was printed saying ‘I’ve seen Orient win away”. From memory this was done to celebrate a win at Northampton I think after failing to win away for 50 odd consecutive league games
I understand the printers are already poised for a new tee shirt saying “I’ve seen Orient get a point”. Due for release on Sunday.
Some tee manufacturers jump on any bandwagon

Just the tip of the NHS iceberg but... Why do i receive several of their letters on the same day instead of in one envelope? Why do hospitals buy soap and toilet paper retail,when its half price wholesale? Then tell us they're skint?

Just the tip of the NHS iceberg but... Why do i receive several of their letters on the same day instead of in one envelope? Why do hospitals buy soap and toilet paper retail,when its half price wholesale? Then tell us they're skint? I once worked for a company who supplied a number of the NHS Trusts in the U.K. Two aspects. As I corporate person the profit margins were huge. As an Individual I was pretty irritated at the lack of commercial awareness with many of their buyers. That makes me a moaner. The difference then, maybe not now, was corporate buyers were professionals who knew how to negotiate. They know suppliers have to make a profit, but not too much. The NHS buyers were not professionals and juggled with a range of duties. Easy prey for a sales force. But it was something noticeable with many organisations not governed by the need to make a profit. Managing costs not uppermost in the minds of busy people. I have sympathy with the letters issue but strangely it can be the most cost effective way. The systems and admin cost of combining being more than the postage saving.

The best moaner I know is the Mona Lisa. Even she struggles to raise a proper smile. My moan, went to see it many years ago. In amongst a gallery with masterpieces all around was this, the size of A3 paper and uninspiring in comparison. Really nothing special. What a disappointment.

I saw some very small William Blake works of art in The Tate Gallery.The disappointment was what they considered good enough to be there,not the works of Blake but the bricks and a jet hanging from the ceiling.Surprisingly I just loved the Henry Moore sculptors.

I’ll admit to a few that are more than minor irritations
Deliberately noisy motorbikes. What gives someone the right to pollute our ears with that obnoxious racket. Also, they cant dress either. Hang em.
Deliberately noisy cars. See above. My flat 6 doesnt count.
Drivers who do not respect cyclists. Flog them.
People who dont like dub. No punishment. They are suffering enough.
People who litter. Prob the same people with the noisy cars. Throw them off tall buildings.
People who think its ok for Hamas to kill, rape and torture and call it ‘resistance’. Deport to Afghanistan. Best of luck.
Poor shop service. I’ll take my money elsewhere then.

I don’t need this forum to find moaners, plenty of them everywhere you go.
