I hate it when my ute is rear ended by some ***** (their fault) and have to send it back 3 ******* times because their insurer AAMI is so bloody useless.
Not the fault of the panel beaters but the useless bloody assessor from Bella Vista refusing to accept its their problem even when the police report backs me up. Useless bastards.

I called them up and complained, asked them when an app or notification system was coming out - no answer. Still got 50% ($100 off) off the cost of the extra downloads. Was the easiest phone call i've ever had with a phone company before.

Was sitting with mate and my son watching the local footy game on Saturday.
Had food and drink in the ute and had our 3 foldout chairs lined up behind the tailgate for a great view of the action on field. Gave ourselves plenty of time to set up for a great day. Some time during the 3rd quarter some inconsiderate ****** in a Rodeo with skyscraper canopy decides to arrive and parks directly in front of us blocking most of the view. Couldn't even see the scoreboard anymore, that's how close he reversed up to us. After a few words its clear he's not interested in moving so we have to reshuffle our stuff to enjoy the rest of the game. I hate inconsiderate jerks Last edited by ford71V8; 20-05-2013 at 01:42 PM.

unfortunately they live amongst us.......move on, they aint worth it.
well done you for taking the youngster out, building lifelong memories. I took our blokes out many times and many miles, ........but they still managed to find their way back home! house beside us on the corner got burgled for the second time in 6 months, never used to happen here but now its common, coming from the smoke apparently, with a truck if you dont mind, and doing a swag of houses over. geez! I hate stealing, lowlife feral's

I hate it when there is a multi car pile up that just happened and everyone slows to a halt to have a bo-peep.

I believe the term is 'rubbernecking'. Yup, pet hate of mine too.

![]() He's so easy to take anywhere. He had his first plane trip the other week when I took him to Melb for 4 days and not a problem the whole time. Top effort for a 7yo. Anyway, clearly the day at the footy worked - he played his best game yet and booted the only goal his team kicked the next morning! ![]() |

bloody glad wrap.......never tears where its meant to then folds up on itself, why will it stick readily to itself away from the object that is to be wrapped but then curls away at the last minute....
running out of coffee at 6 am.......I REALLY hate that. people that hide their steam trains behind buildings so I got to pay to see them. pushbike riders, in traffic, going around roundabouts.......when there is a perfectly good bike path not 20 feet off the road.

you crack me up Poppa.
I really dislike having to drive behind a big fat *** 4wd in traffic where I cant see in front of it, and I have to trust the person in the 4wd knows how to drive. Im the type of person who likes to read what the traffic in front is doing, seeing which lane is slower than the other. Nothing worse than not being able to judge whats in front and missing opportunities to take advantage of a break in the traffic.

Idk if it's just me, but it bothers me when I'm driving and another car pulls up next to me (esp on the freeway/highway). Usually a car will pass me or I'll pass the car, but when that car pulls up on the side and just stays there for miles and miles, it starts to feel pretty creepy. Even if I speed up to pull away, that car does the same. I can slow down and that car does the same too. Weird. Weirdo driving that car.
*and no I didn't cut off that driver or drive erratically either, I'm just minding my own business* |

Few from me this morning
- I hate when I rock up to the train station and my scheduled train has been cancelled making me late for work - I hate when everyone lines up to cross the road on a footpath no wider than 700mm and I can't get past -I hate when property managers come to me to say fix this and make me look good however the fix is they actually have to do it themselves.

I hate it when you write something on a Internet thread and it gets ignored, then 10 post later a forum regular says the same thing and everyone goes gaga over it. Brown nosing away.
I also hate when people don't read all posts and just add their opinion, one which was dismissed pages ago as irrelevant or useless. I also hate that I still cant lick my elbow after training for the entire duration of this thread I still cant do It and I don't believe I'm any closer to managing it. JP |
