New - The things that really annoy you

Grifting cunts

"We didn't want to come back this year but unfortunately the food banks are in emergency crisis," Roxanne told the BBC.
"We didn't want to turn our backs on so many people. We get messages every day from nurses, teachers, children and families who are struggling.
"You don't want music to become something people get annoyed with [but] that's why we did it."
"We want to do whatever we can at Christmas to support food banks," added her husband. "And if that isn't in the form of a song, it doesn't mean we won't show up somewhere else."
 
I’m no fan of Ladbaby but I presume most of their wealth comes from their YouTube videos rather than the Christmas songs?
 
The one drives the other. It's cynical grifting at a Premier League level. They give about 75k a year to the Trussell Trust whilst pocketing 600k themselves from the exposure
 
Nearly smashed my monitor when I got this email from British Gas.

Outside of the posts on here I’ve totally managed to avoid them entirely. Didn’t even really know who / what they were. You all are making me irrationally dislike them now.

Same here. Fortunately I probably won't hear of them again for another 12 months and will have completely forgot who they are.
 
Kind of hoping they do a collaboration with Jake Humphries next year. New twist on Santa Claus is Coming to Town maybe

"he's making a high performance sausage roll list, he's tweeted it twice and leaving room for notes ,cus he is nice.. The inventor of podcasts is coming to town"
 
First time I had ever heard of them. My life does not feel enriched by the discovery.
 
Driving from Jacksonville to Charlotte and vice versa.

Supposed to take 5.5 hours, always takes 8 because South Carolina is the seventh layer of transit Hell.
 
The fucking MSM! “Chaos on the railways because of strikes!”

Report correctly. The chaos is because they brought in outside contractors to do the Christmas engineering works and they overran. The chaos is because Trans Pennine Express are insisting that train crews only run in small sections of the network and they now need 3 times more drivers/conductors to get a train from Liverpool or Manchester to Newcastle. In the past all drivers knew the whole route but they won’t pay to train them and then expect those that know certain section to work overtime or rest days because they don’t have the staff.

Newtork Rail and the Train Operating Companies are a fucking joke but, yeah, its the rail workers striking that are to blame. Get in the fucking bin!

worked a 9hr shift yesterday and saw 5 trains… 3 Grand Centrals and 2 goods trains. Everyone was back in work and no strikes planned till 2nd Jan but they are warning people not to travel for the next two weeks because of the industrial action across the network 🤷‍♂️

Scandalous Mike!
Quite a while now since I enriched the railway with my personality (!) but it was the same then! Just will not print the truth on pain of sacking.
"So then Mr Editor what's the line on this? Where do you want me to go with this story?" (Both puns intended)
