What's annoying me today

Celebrating backing Bayern to win 3-2 at Dortmud with Kane to score...only to belatedly realise I had also added Diaz to score...who didn't.
Oh well. Consolation wine tastes remarkably similar to celebration wine.

I'm supposed to be flying through Bahrain in less than four weeks, and Trump has decided now is the time to try to crash global stocks. He is such a knob.

Lockdown at school. Stuck in my classroom with a bunch of students in silence in the dark. Helicopter circling overhead outside. Of course it had to happen right at dismissal.

Fucking stupid society.

Whilst RA's post puts other things into perspective (and I hope he is safe and sound) I'm annoyed by Ryan the DPD driver, who is apparently sorry he was unable to deliver my parcel. The reason he was unable to deliver my parcel is because he went to number 10, whereas we are number 11. And I know he went to number 10 on account of the e-mail I've just received from DPD featuring a lovely photo of number 10's front fucking door. With a large fucking number 10 on it.

Call 01623 554731. Should take you through to "Platinum" Services.

Thanks, but I'm not sure I'm in the mood for customer service fuckwittery. It's not an urgent parcel so I'll track Ryan on the ap tomorrow and lie in wait for him.
I haven't yet decided whether I'll test him on his 'numerical literacy' and I expect he'll be too young to know Sesame Street ('never delivered there before mate, is it in Shirebrook?')

Is Maths with Sooty still a thing? Taught me everything I know. Until I met Loafs mum.

She says you were a slow learner. Although she used a slightly less PC word for it.

Safe and reasonably sound, thank you.

It does “put it all into perspective” when sheltering in the dark, unsure as to what’s going on outside (turned out it was a prank, so well done that student on committing a felony) with the very distinct possibility it’s someone with a firearm* is, for me, on par for annoyance with Dave Rave’s missing parcel.

Honestly, I was the most annoyed that it made me late getting home. We’re reading the Handmaid’s Tale in class and one of the characters said it’s only out of the ordinary because you’re not used to it.

*I’m not sure about my school but I’d not be surprised if there are students here carrying a pistol. (One of my wife’s students murdered another student a few months ago, for instance. All over being bumped in the hall during passing time).

I get annoyed every time I have to hear the utter shit come out the mouth of Trump and his fellow cunts.

And even more fucking annoyed our ‘patriotic’ press love it when he’s rude about our PM and country.

His latest claim that he’ll stop trade with Spain is a great example of how he doesn’t have the slightest fucking clue what the EU actually is.

Trump and the attack on Iran are not popular in the UK, so the snippy insults are probably no bad thing for Starmer.

The attacks would have happened either way - if he'd jumped straight away, he'd have been badged as weak for not standing up to Trump.

I think it's the perceived crumbling - at first "no", then a day later "yes"

If he thought "no" - then stand by it

He may well have been right in his decisions, but it seems to have left him in the worst of both worlds - annoying the US and the pro war hawks AND annoying his party and the anti war doves.

Didn't Iran bomb uk bases in Cyprus in between the no and the yes?
