I absolutely hate when people think that “Here Comes The Sun ” is not a Beatles song. They’re like “OMG it was Bruno Mars” and I just want to stab them to death. Is that normal?How lovely.
That’s not all I want to do. I then want to chop off his arms and legs, make it into steak, and then feed it to their family

When someone in a dinner party just can’t seem to order food “as is” off the menu. Don’t get me wrong, a minor deviation is easily understandable. For example, if a menu item has cheese and you are lactose intolerant, I get that. But when you deconstruct and reassemble the dish entirely, you are slowing down my food delivery and increasing the possibility of “mystery ingredients” appearing throughout the order.
I used to work with, and travel a lot with, a guy who just plain could never order off the menu. Great guy, but he’d drive me crazy every time we’d start perusing a menu. After I got to know what it was that he liked/disliked/couldn’t eat, I would scan the menu first looking for something for him (hoping he’d just order it without the additions/deletions/endless questions) before I’d even think about my own meal!

I actually somewhat agree. Probably because half the items are like “Super Fabulous Groovy Chicken w/ Potato Sticks” when they’re trying to get you to order chicken nuggets and French fries.

Being vegan is usually hard ordering at a restaurant and it is very rare that I am able to order something off a menu “as is”. I always have to take things out, and then I add things to compensate for what I removed.

That’s about how I feel when folk think Imagine is a Beatles song.

People who ask me for language classes on Tuesday. I don’t have it stipulated on my ads or whatnot that I can’t do Tuesdays but the odds are bloody incredible.
I have a 1 in 7 chance of people picking Tuesday and they all bloody seem to want to have classes on Tuesday!
I had two people looking for classes for Tuesday today but I can’t skip my French lectures in uni tomorrow because I have my summer orals that are worth 50% of my first year grade and I can’t obviously not go to them. So I had to have one person today at 8pm-9:15pm and I have another person on Wednesday at 5pm.

Offline People on my Facebook newsfeed (and there are a few) who “share” or otherwise “like” an obvious scam / fake / bogus giveaway.
Really? An all inclusive trip to Rome, Italy including 5 star hotel? REALLY? Use your common sense. Plus it’s posted as a Life Event? If it’s too good to be true, etc. And then said friend says “Aw shame. Would have been a nice prize.” Uh, yeah it WOULD have. Use your brain. Someone shouldn’t have had to tell you that it’s fake or an obvious scam / like and or share farming.
I’ve seen them do the same for cruises, round trip air fare (oh BOY those aplenty!), Disney vacations, blah blah. If it doesn’t come from the official company, and you can see that they are verified by the little blue check mark, it’s probably safe to say it’s fake. Also would they REALLY give away round trip first class tickets just for liking and/or sharing on FACEBOOK? REALLY? Full inclusive Disney vacations? REALLY? Think about it.

I went to the chemist this morning to pick up my prescription. It was all ready as my doctor had sent it through electronically yesterday. Should have just been able to just walk in, have them handed over, and walk out. But could I?
The chemist turns around and says they have a new directive where they have to ask how I’m doing with them.
I say, “Fine, thanks.” He then opens the bag and pulls out the first of the seven drugs I’m taking at the moment and asks how I’m doing with it.
It’s the blood pressure tablets my doctor prescribed yesterday. “Yet to find out,” I tell him, “just prescribed yesterday. I discussed all my drugs with my doctor yesterday, thanks very much.”
“But I have to do this,” he says, as a queue is forming behind me, and he pulls out the next drug. “We’ve been told to. How are you doing with these?”
I do not want to have to discuss my medication and what it’s for with the chemist, especially when there’s other people waiting and overhearing.
And even if I was getting side-effects from one of my drugs, which I’m not, apart from sleeping lots, how would I know which one? Those are discussions to be had with my doctors, and I don’t want to be forced to discuss my health issues in the middle of a busy chemists.
Felt like snatching them out of his hands and running out of the chemists, but instead had to stand there and have him go through all my medications, with me giving monosyllabic grunts of “Fine” just to get the barsteward to give them to me.
Feckin’ ridiculous!!!

If the doctor has prescribed them for you then its nothing to do with the pharmacist, plus its almost certainly breaking patient confidentiality when it comes to your health and well-being. Next time tell him you’re not willing to discuss your health and that its none of his business.

Offline Which pharmacy is it that has this new rule in place? Can you use another pharmacy next time? I did some quick internet searching and don’t see that new rules have been put in place across the UK that would have caused this pharmacist to question you on this visit so I’m wondering if it is a new corporate policy.
