So am I and that’s why I thought it could be someone specific
So am I and that’s why I thought it could be someone specificI’m following a fitness influencer who is currently doing this
Oh yes this really grinds my gears. On our local group someone posted 'i hope the lady who was on the bridge is okay'. Followed by 'she's fine someone managed to talk her down'. Please give this poor woman some respect and privacy!People asking if x is ok after they saw an accident. Give them some bloody privacy!
My Facebook feed is full of pictures of all the trees that fell down overnightPeople going on about this storm we're having up north
Oh yes, what a snore fest that is. I’ve spared my SM ‘followers’ footage of my greenhouse festooned across my garden after last nights stormMy Facebook feed is full of pictures of all the trees that fell down overnight
Going on from that I’m sick of seeing people who get stuck in a traffic jam, where the cause is some poor person on a bridge, moaning and griping and even saying “let them jump. I’ve somewhere to be”. No thought to the actual person or the services involved. Just their own selfish needs to get to Asda or the local shopping centre etcOh yes this really grinds my gears. On our local group someone posted 'i hope the lady who was on the bridge is okay'. Followed by 'she's fine someone managed to talk her down'. Please give this poor woman some respect and privacy!
i remember it well..we got a day off school!I'm old enough to remember the storm of 1987 and how bad it was, and people didn't make such a fuss. I don't think they would even if social media had been around. Everyone just did what they could in the cleanup after.
I can't understand why everything has to be blown up into a huge drama.
This! I‘ve offered furniture free to a good home or to charities in the past. I couldn’t believe how fussy the charities in particular were! I had a leather couch that they refused to take because it had a couple of scratches on it - IT’S FREE!!! The safety labels were all there but that wasn’t good enough. I endedup paying to have it picked up by the council, such a waste of good furniture.Aaghhh this has just reminded me of the other month, I put a relatively modern double bed up on a helping each other group on Facebook. I wasn't asking anything for it because I just wanted it gone. One side of it was a bit damaged, and I had a new one was on the way, I just said whoever can come the soonest to collect can have it.
I got absolutely loads of messages off people with big dramatic sob stories, not being rude but your son being disabled/current living situation/pregnancy/fridge contents has nothing to do with me. Yeah that's sad and I hope it gets better for you but its completely irrelevant. Also all the people asking if I'll deliver it for free, deliver it for a cost, can they have the mattress too, can I hold it for X amount of time whilst they sort their house out. NO. IT IS A FREE BED. READ THE DESCRIPTION.
The people who did come to collect it I did feel sorry for. It was a pregnant teenager, with her dad and grandad. Not being awful but they all smelled really bad and were a bit unkempt, arrived in a really scruffy bashed up van and the girl said wow this apartment building is like a hotel. All my sympathy for the situation went out of the window when her dad started swanning about my apartment telling me he expected the interior to be bigger and better based on the location/cost of the area?!?!!?!?!! Also then he started saying how he used to have an apartment which was bigger, better and had a better view than mine in a similar location but sold it cos he didn't like it anymoreIt just made no sense at all. I completely understand that I am in a very fortunate position and they seemingly are not, and what he was doing was more than likely trying to reaffirm in his own head he was just as great, which I have had people do before in my home, just in more subtle ways. If he hadn't have started carrying on like that I wouldn't have thought any more of them, and I would've been happy giving away more used furniture, but now I just take it to the recycling centre because I don't have the time to deal with all the nonsense which comes along with people
So long story short: I hate people who use social media to give unsuspecting strangers a big sob story and I also hate how social media has normalised giving randomers the confidence to swan around having vocal opinions on everything
My charity shops are so fussy it's unreal. They seem to be striving to be just like high-end botiques and appear to have completely forgotten why people go to charity shops. Boils my piss.This!

I just use Adblock. When I was on youtube on a different laptop to mine the other day I was astonished how many adverts there were now. Like 30 secs into a video I was getting 20 second ads one after another.Adverts on Youtube. By now I have to click about 8 times "skip" or "x" in a 10min video. I actually get ads anxiety. - FU Youtube! - Recently I started to simply download most videos off my subscription page as soon as I come home, and then watch them later on one by one from my harddrive. - In total peace.
