    Will you *. He earns more than you and remind him of that. He got a lend of money not for electricity or food for the kids. * got it to go off on a wee booze up to watch Geordie * v dull mundane Burnley. £100 waisted in my opinion but hey, he got the displeasure of * it up a wall. Get your money back in full as you didn’t lend it at £10 per week and get him to * and stop being so soft mate. You wanna lose friends then lend the * money.

    Supermarkets that cheapen down their products in an effort to make more profit.

    Supermarkets in general. I know I'm a hypocrite as I use them, but they are part of the breakdown of society. You used to buy good meat from a friendly butcher, good bread from a friendly baker, good fruit and veg from a friendly greengrocer and so on. Now you buy average * in big halls for cheaper and use machines that don't speak to pay for it. Nobody who works in them has any pride, despite being given stupid job titles and stupid * name badges that say they are 'happy to help'. The whole thing is *.

    When customers call and don't have their Account/Order number at the ready.

    Worked in a call centre last 4 jobs and this really really gets to me. Why wouldn't you have this ready to give :47:

    Impatient call centre staff that expect you to have your account details immediately after they answer.

    Media bias, the guy that's gonna be our next PM has came out with several racist remarks, he also compared Putin to Hitler, if that had been Corbyn he would've been crucified, but it's only Boris and his quirky sense of humour, nothing tae see here.

    Very little coverage of the MP who accused him of being racist as well.

    This C6ACEBB2-FECA-4A40-89D7-E0667A30E039.png . What’s not secure, have the huns infiltrated the board to steel our pics of our trophies.
    Also the doctor giving me more Botox injections today, after me being told by the last doctor that I’ve reached my max dosage and any more will destroy the muscles.

    People speaking with a Glasgow accent when they live miles and miles away from Glasgow.

    Cumbernauld is the worst for it. Yous dont live anywhere near Glasgow....why do you speak with a Glasgow accent????

    My family all live in Bonnybridge...like about 4 mile from Cumbernauld and nobody in Bonnybridge speaks like that.

    My auld Granda used to say that before they built the new Cumbernauld....when it was just a wee village....nobody spoke like that there....this is a new thing.

    It is trivial. But it really really annoys me.

    And then they say they are "...going intae the toon..." when they mean Glasgow city centre. The toon would be Cumbernauld itself if your referring to the toon. Like I keep saying 4 mile along the road in Bonnybridge "...going intae the toon...." means going to Falkirk. If you lived within Glasgow like Easterhouse or Springburn then going intae the toon would mean going to Glasgow city centre. Going intae the toon in Cumbernauld should mean going to Cumbernauld...not Glasgow.....stop saying it

    Well seeing as though cumbernauld was used to help solve Glasgows housing problem I would have thought that had something to do with it.

    ......And when they changed all the words at Mass a few year back. That annoyed me and still does. I keep trying to say the old words and having to correct myself. All this "and with your spirit" carry on. Shouldnae really be able to just decide out the blue that the words that everyone's been saying for years were actually wrong and they should just get changed over night. It was bad enough when they stopped saying it Latin....

    The whole thing reeks of Protestantism and heresy if you ask me lol

    True.....but they should lose the accent.....they dont live in Glasgow anymore and its like 3 generations down by now.

    America was used to solve Britain's housing problem....but they dont still speak with British accents

    But if you are brought up in house with those accents then it carries down and 3 generations is * all.

    Bit of a stretch that second part ffs :giggle1:

    And people in the current generation moving from. Glasgow to cumbernauld, lots of variables
