101 Things that get on our tits but don't actually matter in the slightest.
  • I used to get the Greggs deal a lot when I was at uni last year, gotta remember not everyone on this forum is in touch with REAL LIFE though
  • Coffee on it's own still takes too long. You can have a cloudy lemonade and learn to like it.

    If you seriously want me to start having uncaffeinated drinks in the morning, I may as well start my murderous rampage now.

    My closest greggs is a 15 mile drive away. They're not that good.

    Loads of caffeinated drinks in a fridge but, in the morning, I would tend to take a hot drink over a cold one.

    There is no life here, that's why the nearest greggs is 15 miles away :-(
  • There’s a Greggs Drive-thru opening near me soon!

  • I live opposite the train station.
    There is some twat member of rail staff out there with a leaf blower trying to clear about 4 leaves off a step.

    He has been at it for 15 minutes now.

    Use a broom you dumb cunt, its 11pm.

    My suburb is notorious for leaf blowers given the greenery therein and the best example of unnecessary blowing(!) I saw was after some rain.  Chap was clearing a footpath and some big leaves were basically pasted to the ground.  He was determined to clear it but only with the blower, so cue a few minutes of half stuck leaves flapping on the ground making a fwipfwipfwip sound.  I didn't see how the standoff ended.  The other one was a guy removing leaves from the base of a tree by walking around it, but this only served to move the leaves slightly around the tree each time so he did about three laps before realising he needed a new strat.
    Skerret's posting is ok to trip balls to and read just to experience the ambience but don't expect any content.

  • People ordering coffee in Greggs.

    Whrn I worked in Greggs it was an urn of hot water and a scoop of instant. These days everywhere you go you're stuck watching a fucking hipster ceremony of making a latte that drags on longer than the trailers in a cinema (now those get on my tits - fuck your movie loyalty cards and popcorn and drinks being artfully thrown around. I want to watch a film. I swear people wouldn't stream as much if you could just sit down and watch the fucking film )
    PSN : time_on_my_hands
  • It literally takes less than 30s for a Greggs attendant to press the latte button and it be ready.
  • Yeah but I feel like at Gregg's I want a tea urn, just seems more fitting.
    Also tabards.
  • If nothing else, Gregg's have to be commended on breaking the cartel of exorbitant pricing at motorway services. Their prices for a cuppa and a breakfast roll are a fraction of what all the robbing bastard franchises have traditionally charged.

    I have a tabard in work I have to wear when there is an evacuation/fire drill etc.

    It is hi-vis yellow says "EO"/"DEO" on the back .

    Deputy/Evacuation Officer.

    Since I have lost weight it now fits me which is a bonus but I still look a prat in it.
    Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009.
  • EO/DEO sounds like an 80s synth band.
    Maybe get a keytar to carry during drills.

    Can’t be the biggest worry. I mean, you can’t have to wear it often. Unless … wait. How many emergency evacuations do you have?

    bun, or butty. I'll accept bap too, and chuckle to myself since it also means booby.

  • I'd not had an oven bottom until the other day.
    I picked some up when Sainsburys was rinsed in bbq weather.

    They make great burger buns for quarter pounders, or at least the ones I got did. I didn't cut them in half just used one on top and one as the base as they were pretty flat.
  • I miss the now-legendary Bless Stottie.

    Speciality of a lovely pub in Derby called the Blessington Carriage (The Bless for short). A stottie is a particularly huge bread roll, pretty much the size of a dinner plate. They used to fill one with chips, cheese and home-made chilli con carne. Despite being served up as a sandwich, you could only take it on with a knife and fork. It was heavenly. It cured hangovers. It was enough to fuel you for a whole weekend.

    Surely this is a different thing to a roll, bap or bun (and everything else is a made up word except for teacake which is different again).
  • Pouring one out for those of you who don't know the majesty of a mortons crispy roll, god bless
  • Horrid things. As are the abominations known as ‘well fired rolls’

    Hark at t’Londoner.

    Using ‘muffin’ for bread roll is a West Yorkshire thing. Quite common in the wild lands between Manchester and Leeds. Likewise ‘teacake’ … also West Yorkshire, but maybe more towards the north.

    Sheer madness. You all might as well be referring to rolls as fajitas.
