Mega Thread Things that Shit me part XII - The Twelfth One!

Er, a mat?

This may come as a shock but we did it for years without designated bays. Fwiw I don't have a problem with them just the number of them and the location. They can be front row but they don't need to be closest to the entry

As a parent the designated bays should be for "parents with kids aged 2-6 who are not in prams". Those little campaigners are the most likely to dart out between parked cars into oncoming traffic or wildly swing open a car door so it slams into a pole or the car next to it.

I guess you just let natural selection take its course in those instances

the fact that GPS uses numbers instead of just saying what road it is. "Turn right for 4" means nothing to me. "Turn right for Tonkin Highway" I understand.

What GPS are you using? Google Maps is not bad on android as it will tell you the street name. e.g
"In 400m turn left onto Sunshine Avenue"
Followed by: "GPS signal lost"

They should probably be a bit away from the busiest point of the carpark being the entry to the shops. Prams these days are the size of small hatchbacks and parents carry 95 kg of stuff, so getting in and out of a car requires a lot of space. If anything 'parents with prams' spots should be no closer to the entry, just bigger. The bays right at the entry should be the elderly/disabled.

Microwaves that don't stop beeping once the timer has finished until the user has opened the door...

People who put something in the microwave then forget about it...

And on a lesser note people who take things out of a microwave before the timer has counted down completely but don't reset it.


On parking bays I'm getting increasingly annoyed by carparks where it seems every third bay has a decent chunk taken up by a tree, which is then surrounded by kerbing just the right height to catch my cars spoiler (and my car is by no means particularly low).

How about person who puts a piece of frozen bread in the microwave for 5 minutes. ****ing knob made a smell that hung around in that microwave for weeks afterwards.

(Also if you press "stop" once its done it will stop beeping even if you havent taken the food out)

My washing machine beeps until the lid is lifted. It's amazing how deaf people become to it that are literally in the same zone and yet I can hear it from the other end of the house

Was getting fuel the other day (from a 7/11) and the lady in front of me was talking to the cashier and had her 2-3 year old daughter I'd say next to her. The cashier offered the kid a Krispy Kreme and the mother bites at him with 'she can't have that, we're vegan'. Now if you want to go home and eat a cabbage, ****ing go for it. However don't make that choice for your children, let them make that own choice when they hit an appropriate age to decide which path they'd like to take. She also spent $58 on vegan friendly Ben and jerrys ice cream from what I could over hear.

My cousin is a vegetarian and has made her kids vegeterian aswell and they are under 6, let them make the decision but she won't them eat or chocolate or cakes because they have never tried it before : drunk:
