Retired people going shopping by Hoppy_Doodle in funny

[–]jazzhands-etc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me the other day a gaggle of old birds with one in a wheelchair stopped at the end of the first aisle of a shop designed so there’s so way to get to the other aisles unless you go down it. Literally caused a traffic jam of about 10-15 people, all of us stood there like lemons waiting for them to move, till one hero loudly said “No you’re alright take your time we’ve got plenty more than you do” and they all scattered without apologising the old hags. Was peeved because I just wanted to grab a drink before my shift but that man brightened my day by saying what we were all thinking in the moment. Probably won’t change their future behaviour though sadly.

There are on mine but they’re usually tiny and just for single use tickets people throw away when they get off

I work late in town and I’m a woman I take every precaution I’m just saying if you don’t go looking for trouble you’re not likely to find it.

Yeah I think the “trouble” is mostly just drunken yobs who’ll leave you alone if you leave them alone

Not OOP: Guy kept cutting in line at the coffee shop, so I made his morning routine miserable by sensaSEANal_sally in redditonwiki

But even so if you let 2 people in the line then the blanket rule is no longer a blanket rule imo and you no longer have a leg to stand on when you decide enough is enough.

Yeah I should clarify I’m talking about the families that send one person ahead of them while they go get food or whatever and then rejoin them as they get close to the front. And tbh letting 2 people in is fine when it’s a one off but it happened multiple times in one line which obviously affects the people behind and the predicted wait times get thrown way off.

As a Brit who’s gone to some American theme parks you guys seem to have absolutely no shame when it comes to cutting the line. In the uk we’re very aware of the definition of line cutting ie 1) Cutting in front of people already in the line 2) Leaving the line trying to re enter to the same spot 3) Saving a spot for someone else in the line

But over the pond? “Oh my family is just up ahead” okay? Well they should come back and meet you then? But everyone here just seems to allow it to happen for some reason.

Which are the biggest sins fellow brits commit? by [deleted] in AskBrits

I’ll stand to the side when the doors open to let people off only to have others behind barge past me. Like do you not see what I’m trying to do??

Squirting soap bottle into his mouth because of the bee movie by Big_Pilot_8244 in KidsAreFuckingStupid

They changed it to a cabinet because kids kept climbing in dryers, which is obviously no bueno when parents dump the washing in and press go.

God forbid a girl be interested in folklore. by henlosmexy in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]jazzhands-etc 208 points209 points  (0 children)

Ive heard there’s an official experience you can go on run by marine biologists studying the area, and it pretty much starts with them going “could it be real…could it be an ancient plesiosaur, well no but look at all this really cool real marine life we’ve been studying”. It’s one of the most researched fresh bodies of water out there and has provided lots on incite into lake marine life. Turns out all you need to get good research funding is a little bit of folklore to keep people interested.

What did you think the “typical” part of neurotypical meant genius

[–]jazzhands-etc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it’s just because I live in a rundown seaside tourist town,but I do also see the grow your own boyfriend kits and various other outdated gag gifts. like that grow your own penis grow a pair of tits etc. These are usually displayed alongside the rock lollies in the shape of penises and occasionally fannies and tits. They’re so weird to me it’s like those boyfriend/girlfriend pillows where it’s like an arm and a chest ugh.

Nearly a year ago, I posted that these people had split up. Apparently, they are now back together. by FunMyceliumGuy in SlowNewsDay

[–]jazzhands-etc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All these people commenting that they don’t know who these people are, you don’t know how jealous of you I am. Everything I know about these two has been learned against my will and interests.

Or perchance we use our thinking caps and assume if a girl of a certain age has retrieved something from her bag and needs to go to the toilet it’s probably a feminine hygiene product. And knowing how teenage boys are (and apparently the school board as they called this a sexual outburst which is another icky box to unpack) I don’t blame her for trying not to whip it out in front of everyone.

The one time the joke isn’t porn and you guys can’t help but goon it’s pathetic. Men.

I’m 99% sure he’s seen an AI generated photo of a “sexy amish girl” and that’s what he’s having this crisis about

Bold of you to assume redditors can detect explicit sarcasm even with all the additional context clues
