Ewe Ram reacted to sawley_ram in Random stuff that people do that annoy me
The best (true) story I heard was from my Dad growing up in the early '60s. He was messing around with his mates and threw a conker or a stone or something at an ice cream van window. The owner got out, grabbed him by his shirt collar and took him round to his house where my Grandmother was at home! Rather than shout at him for touching precious Tommy and do a post on Facebook as many would do now, she took him inside out of sheer embarrassment, apologised profusely and he had to stay in for 2 weeks. Grandad paid for the damage.
I'm only 28 myself but having been brought up by fairly strict (but never violent) parents born in the early 1950s, I suppose I had a different upbringing.
Agree totally on the phone issue too. See it all time -- Mum pushing the pram with one hand on the handle, the other on the phone ignoring the inquisitive questions of their children. So glad I grew up (just) before phones were everywhere like they are now.

Indeed. I live over the road from a playing field. All the time I see dads kicking a football about with the kids but scrolling on the phone, so taking no notice of the children. Mums pushing toddlers on swings whilst browsing on the phone and the toddlers shouting ‘mummy, look at me, watch me’ and the mothers on the phones ignoring them. Very sad, no wonder they are growing up doing exactly what they want.

Adverts made in a foreign language and then badly dubbed English voice-over added.
Lazy at best and IMO insulting. If a company can't be arsed to make an english advert, for a market as big as ours is, then they don't deserve my cash.

The modern world, always an excuse for something. Responsibility going, if not gone.

People who hold their knives like they are holding a pen.
See also people who are incapable of eating spaghetti or tagliatelle correctly.

Anyone who uses any of these phrases should have their pubic hair singed with a flame thrower
”living my best life”
”bucket list”
”I love you to the moon and back”

Ewe Ram reacted to TibshelfRam in Frank Lampard
The thing is, I'm not sure they are. I think a lot of them will be plastic fans who have a limited football knowledge.
The point is though, I don't honestly think that it will be long before the fans do turn on him. A couple of bad results, however inevitable we all know that to be for any manager, and they'll turn. Football fans are fickle, but I reckon Chelsea fans even more so. They turned on the best manager they ever had - twice! I have a sad feeling that this will all end in tears.
Oh, Frank, what have you done?

Ewe Ram reacted to Anon in Neil Warnock is a National Treasure
He seems like a great guy away from the football pitch, but he has repeatedly crossed the line in his managerial career. Several opposition coaches have complained about him literally instructing his players to break opponents legs from the touchline. He was in charge of the disgraceful Sheff U team at the infamous battle of Bramall Lane and he instructed players to feign injury to get the fixture abbandonned.

I think you’re all romanticising him waaay too much. He’s a grade one ...... (that thing in his anagram). There’s a few things that are intolerable in a man and one is being mardy. He’s the king of it

People on planes who hear the announcement that's says 'remain seated until the seatbelt sign is switched off' then immediately you hear the click of them taking off their seat belts. Then as soon as the sign does go off they're on their feet grabbing stuff from the overhead lockers, hitting you on the head with it, then stand at some cocky angle trying to push into a queue to get off that's going nowhere

Where I used to work people used to bring curry and stuff to the canteen and stink the place out with garlic, it made me gag.
People who run from the back of their check out queue when they open a new checkout so they get to the front, usually with a look like 'ooh look at me, I'm wide awake and on it, you losers'
companies that take your wad of money then refuse to communicate when you have a problem with their goods
I'm contributing far too much to this topic.

Women and make up:
stupid crayon eye brows that make you do a double take, like wtf is that on your face?
'Contouring'. What? You paint your face so it looks like you have cheekbones or a chiselled chin and no flab. I saw a girl at the match and from the front she looked like a model but from the side she looked like a hamster. It messed with my head. And she had the blackest thick eyebrows ever. Dumb.
Pouty fat 'bee stung' lips. Eh? Who wants them? Drawn round the edge and plumped up like they'll pop. Makes me ashamed to be female with these air heads about.
Oh and leggings with a short tshirt. Put it away, who wants to see what you had for your dinner.
