Have no family I can count on to assist in anything, let alone financially. Even though you are working some housing associations are worth checking out. They are not just for the unemployed, and some have top notch places, and don't rip you off like agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seem to be a few companies online that you can pay a fee to act as guarantor, but not all Letting Agents seem to accept them, and yet again it's more cost for those that just want a roof over their heads.

JoetheRam Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 The following words/phrases: - "Millenials" - "White Privilege" - "On fleek" - "On point" People who don't realise politicians across the spectrum will do and say pretty much anything to take power and get their own way. They are klepto-maniacs, ego-maniacs, and in the case of Dear Old Donald, maniacs. Part time social meeeja political activism. "If x does this, I'm moving to y". Good for you, go ahead.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Haha made me laugh this. It's one of those things you don't really think about but it happens all the time and it's annoying!! I get them also in the supermarket with trolleys. Ambling along so I can't get past and when a gap appears they swerve into it last minute and I have to stop abruptly. Also people who stop in or hold conversations in doorways or at the end of supermarket aisles. Ewe Ram and ramit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Reminds me of a place I worked where they decided to paint yellow lines down the edges of corridors etc to demark where it was safe to walk (it was a huge chemical research place and they'd just had a really bad incident). We were also all fitted with safety glasses (it was the 1950's mind). The 'house magazine' did an tongue-in-cheek article about research in Sweden (I think) where they decided to paint a line down the middle of corridors so that the people arriving late would not collide with the people leaving early. However, they gave up on the idea when they discovered that it was the same people arriving late, as left early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Women who think it's smart/trendy/sexy to have their bra straps showing. Looks like they've been kitted out at the local Salvation Army. angieram and Ewe Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then charging a fee for "arranging" it. Scamming gets. I've said it before and I'll say it again - anyone with the word "agent" in their job title should be first against the wall That's a little harsh on newsagents.

Wolfie Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 Women with drawn on eyebrows and while we're at it.... Massive eyelashes, so she has to tip her head back to open her eyes. Obvious fake tan Fake boobs Any obvious cosmetic work. Basically , I don't like women to be fake. ramit, Chester40 and Ewe Ram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 Insincerity generally. Following on from the fake women thing I suppose but I hate it when I feel like anyone is putting on an act. I hate BS. Especially the alpha-male type stuff that men do for effect. I hate making small-talk in social situations. Not because I can't do it but why would I want to talk to someone who I'm never going to see again and whose name I won't be able to remember 5 minutes from now. In a group situation, if I have something to contribute to a conversation, I will do so. Otherwise I'm happy to listen to others. People often think that I'm quiet. I'm not. I'd just rather have a proper conversation with someone. Exchange views and have a laugh, yes, but not just try to score points off each other the whole time.

Ewetube Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Celebrities and their self-importance. I do not need a singer/ actor/ footballer/ writer/ model with their extravagant lifestyle telling me to give some of my meagre income to a particular charity. Why not live more modestly and do some good yourselves? I also don't require your assistance in deciding how to vote. You may be good at what you do but that does not make you qualified to advise me on anything.

I dont mind if that famous person has made a significant impact on a charity, take Lenny Henry and Comic relief for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Ewetube regarding celebrities asking me to give my money to charity when they are living super rich lifestyles and travelling around the world first class, I do believe that Lenny Henry is an honourable exception to that rule because it appears that he has largely forsaken progressing his own career to concentrate on charity work (I do accept he is probably not living on the breadline in a Chaddesden Terraced house). The likes of Simon Pegg (random example) telling me to give money to charity does get right on my wick though. Ewe Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
