MMM, grilled Spam and cheese :lol: Oddly enough the SPAM museum is in Minnesota (where I'm from) and we went there on a field trip! Hmm off-topicness...anywho yes those sites are quite spamworthy.
 
People not leaving feedback on ebay/half.com

I think I sold at least 10 things and I only received 2 feedbacks, one of them came a couple months after the sale.
Use good customer service techniques. Once you have sent the item and received payment send them an email letting them know it was nice doing business with them and ask them to notify you when they receive the item so that you can be sure it was received.

That alone tends to remind people to leave feedback. But if they then say they received it then say it was good doing business with them and request they leave feedback, as you have just left them buyer feedback.

Many times I will just forget to leave feedback because I only occasionally buy stuff from Ebay. But when they email me something like the above it makes me go do it real quick, since I was just reminded while already online.
 
I need to get some SPAM, I haven't had it in years.

That's genius. 👍
 
I don't like it when my passengers change my radio station, or then attempt to sing along to a song.

I like ya Michael, but dammit, you can't sing, "I Wanna Know What Love Is". :grumpy:
 
Like I mentioned in one of the other threads, I hate on CarDomain how when someone posts a message on your ride's page, they say something along the lines of "Cool car, come over to my page and rate my ride!!!".

Which brings me onto another one, people who consistently keep asking me to 'comment their Myspace' or 'comment their new photos'. They usually end up being blocked.
 
Posting 1-word or 1-smiley replies in GT Planet threads also =

!

Unlike Monty Python's Vikings, we're not keen on Spam here either. ;)

Word. :P

Yah that's another thing that is real annoying. My thinking is they are just attention seekers that need the comments to be happy.
 
Another one of my tips for getting people to leave you alone online:

- When they ask you to comment a picture of themselves, say "Holy crap, what's that?".

They'll never bug you again.
 
lol good advice :P and make sure to go 'eurg disgusting!' on those naff arms length pictures of them kissing their bf/gf


- people that arent Irish that go on about how they are 'so Irish', just because 8 generations back someone in the family married one. its never someone even remotely close to the UK lol

I usually don't comment on what they want to hear, got that already sorted out :P.
 
Sweet then.

Another one, maybe personal. I don't care.

- Immigrants who come from their country to UK or wherever, then preach about how amazing it was. Don't get me wrong, saying stuff like "Man, I miss the old country." or whatever's fine. But don't harp on about how it's the greatest country in the world, because if it is. Piss off back there, I don't wanna hear it.

Hell I went to the UK came back and could quit talking about how great it was.

No joke. That is incredibly annoying. I was seeing the sights in San Fransisco recently and had some folks from the UK in line behind me. The line was hours long and I heard nothing but how stupid everything about America was while their kid repeatedly bumped into me. A couple of the longest hours I've spent.

I thought that's what the second amendment was for. 💡
 
Another one I just remembered, people who never have a clue what they're going to buy when they are standing in line in a fast food restaurant eg. McDonalds. They always go up to the counter and then decide on something which when they receive it, they reject it and say they want something else. There's also the type who have many children, and then start asking them what they want at the counter. They are children, they can't understand what they buy. All they want is the bloody toy which comes with a meal. The children always say the want a different toy which then they take ages to choose. I also hate people who are too specific on what they buy, and people who seem to have nothing else to do because they spend an enormous amount of time talking to the cashier.

It's fast food people, get that into your stupid heads.
 
How about when the mom asks for a different toy, but they are only offering like one a week, and then either the mom or the kid gets in a fit over it. Quite amusing to watch.

:lol: Yeah, totally forgot about those incidents. It's as if the shops purposely do the 'one toy a week' thing simply to have those types of moments.

Another one, people who talk with double letters on IM's who think they are cool by doing it, usually girls. Eg. "Omgg thatss awesomee, whered youu gett thosee fromm"" etc. It's bloody annoying.

I use hott. Something can be hot, but if it's hott, oh boy watch out!
 
I hate it when people call me a satanist or a devil worshiper when I say that I like the song Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden. The song isn't about worshiping the devil. It's about a dream the singer had, and a movie the bassist saw. Read about it here.
 
I got one although it's more funny than annoying...

So I have these FOB neighbors and they're a bunch of kids... I don't know where the parents are or they are kids too. Apparently, the other day their "Ultimate Driving Machine" had to be hauled away on a flat bed. My dad told me it was the same for their Audi A4. The LS400 has just been sitting around collecting dust there too. They have some new "cheaper" cars to f up now.

Then one of my other neighbor's "Ultimate Driving Machine" apparently hit something because the rear fender and light are messed up.

👍
