... those stupid things that really get on your xxxxxx.

You buy a packet of salted nuts, and bu99er me it says "may contain nuts."

Or why is there only one monopolies commission?

Why do you have to pay to get into see the Open Championship?

Why did Kamakazi pilots wear helmets, life jackets and parachutes?

I need a holiday!!:mad:

And how come we managed to put a man on the Moon before we worked out it would be a good idea to put wheels on a suitcase?

Those warnings on all booze telling you to drink responsibly. I do, I only get irresponsible after I've had 2 bottles of wine.

Ah Bri, the pack of peanuts HAS to say "May Contain Nuts" just in case the processing has picked up traces of nuts processed in the same factory. Peanuts are, as well we all know, not actually nuts.

Still gets on my wick though, as does the "hot contents" warning on coffee mentioned by fenjer.

There's two main reasons Kamakazi pilots wore helmets, life jackets and parachutes?

The first relates to helmets in particular. To avoid being detected by radar, the pilots had to fly very low. When you fly just above sea level, a few feet in some cases, there's lots of turbulence. The last thing the Japanese wanted was to have a pilot bang his head inside the plane and knock himself out, meaning the plane would likely go down, miss the intended target and waste a bomb.

The second reason they wore helmets, life jackets and parachutes was cultural. The Japanese pilots had the mindset that they were doing their normal job, ie helping Japan win the war. Certainly not going on a mission to die. They therefore flew dressed and prepared as any other flying mission.

Is that like the sportsbike chavs who go out wearing shorts, vest and flip flops? "I'm just dressed for a normal sunny day. No chance of crashing and dying if I wear normal clothes."

My pet hate, rumble strips across both carriageways.

What f***ing possible use is there in warning you of a corner behind you?

Or the best one rumble strips recessed into the road planings. Oh how my backside gripped the seat when going across them

"warning contents may be hot" on every take-away coffee cup.


You say this......I use to work at McDonalds a while ago, as a manager......Had a complaint from an old man who sipped his hot chocolate that he had just bought and burnt his mouth......He then gave it to his wife so she could try it, she burnt her mouth to.

They complained that we shouldn't sell it hot and how where they meant to know. I feel bad being sarcastic to old people, but sometimes you have to be!

Spank86
17-07-12, 04:49 PM
Did you ask them to clarify if they were requesting to know how they were supposed to know the temperature of hot chocolate?

I did explain the name to them..... they looked confused, then explained they would complain if it was cold - Apparently i was being rude to them saying that....

Old people like to think they have authority over everybody else, just because they have to tuck their sexual bits in their socks.

I would of put it in the fridge on purpose and served them.
