Plenty of bellcheeses getting ridiculously annoyed and confrontational about just about anything.

Are you Saino's Local manager I complained to earlier today by any chance?

Me: There's some **** holding up the entire store while both checkout persons attend to all his lottery ticket needs

Manager: I'm sorry sir, there's a problem with our lottery machine


Just. Switch. The. Fvcking. Thing. Off. :wozza:

(and maybe just give lottery ticket **** a sound beating, treat it as valuable life lesson :thumbsup:)

In my experience, there are only two types of shoppers,

1. The type who always keep two metres away, wait at the end of the aisle (or side, if caught mid aisle) for anyone else to go past and give everyone that knowing, partially embarrassed, British nod and smile.

2. Complete and utter ******* ******* :censored:

If Boris wanted to do something useful he should advise the nation to "write a shopping list" before they buy their groceries.

I go in with my list, I know what I want and where it is, I put the stuff in the basket, go to the self-service point, then get the f*ck out of there - as quickly as possible.

I don't wish to be ageist, but my local supermarket is full of old folk standing around apparently not sure what they've come to buy and / or chatting - and then when they do eventually finish their shop they stand in the queue one behind the other waiting to be served by a human being.

We went down to our local parade of shops, to get a vew bits.
I waited outside, whilst my wife queued up to enter shops.
In true Jasper Carrott 'nutter on the bus' styleee, a local nut, with tits hanging on her and knees and wearing slippers, joins the line behind my wife and starts blaming the birds for Covid-19.
As I'm standing to the side, I have a great enjoyment in watching my wife have a conversation with the local nut.
Our family does seem to attract these types :wozza:
The few occasions I've popped out to get some bits a nutter always stands next to me in the queue! In fact this happened before the virus too ffs

Nope!


I haven't got a problem with people complaining to staff about stupid things they are doing...
The situation is already charged enough, without the shops adding to the problem.

There are just so many wankers ready to start a fight (of all things a ****ing fight!) over nothing...
I've seen one guy start on a security guard about the price of a ****ing ready meal!

Another woman started having a pop because the next customer had started loading up the conveyor as she was packing away her last bag.
She walked right up to him to complain about his breaching of the 2 metres.. the only breach was when she decided to walk into the zone to have a go at him :ffsparr:

another guy threatening to batter a local shop keeper because he had (accidentally?) overcharged 30p for a can of Stella.

Interestingly a lot of the druggies and dealers are more visible around my way. I guess they blended into the everyone else milling around previously, but now they stick out as the only ones hanging around.

The local "second hand" electrical goods shop has been closed for a while.
Queueing up for Sainsbury's on Sunday I had some low-life trying to flog a mobile and a digital camera.

We’ve managed to get our shop down to about once a week for milk and bread now.
Had to go to Tesco in boundary road yesterday. Crouched down to grab 2 loaves of bread just for
some **** to walk up and lean over me to grab something from a shelf above me prompting me to say
In a loud voice “do you know what 2m is mate!?” He walked off oblivious with his stupid little white earbuds in!
I’ll push them away next time inconsiderate wankers
Edit: with a latex glove on!

Curiously, the professional beggars working their shift patterns outside my Saino's Local seem to have suddenly found something more, er, rewarding, to do with their time

Saw the same at Sainsbury's West Hove yesterday. The calm check-out person explained to Ms.Angry, that the two customers were more than two metres apart.

In my case the woman in question had taken an absolute age to get through her checkout. Including disappearing for 5 minutes to pick up something she had forgotten to pick up.
Needless to say she hadn't forgotten to pick up 3 packs of 16 toilet rolls. ( there were none left when i looked for some).


Got to say I sympathise massively with the vast majority of supermarket staff, who must be putting up with shit loads of unwarranted grief at the moment.

TBH I'm loving this aspect of social distancing.

Nice orderly queues.
Quite shops.
Minimal traffic.

I don't recognize anything being written here.

Some people are tw@ts.

.

I'd have taken one off her and paid for it myself
 






In the cheese shop today, waiting patiently outside as only one person at a time and after her husband directed from the door as to what to buy she promptly dropped the eggs on the floor - ****wittery of the highest order and ensured I had to wait another 5 minutes.

Did they have good stocks of Venezuelan Beaver Cheese?

It maybe because I live in South London. There is a reasonably high percentage of anti-social twats at the best of times.

Nah some people are just tw@ts.

Normally, in this situation, if nobody else is being one I assume it must be me.

But oh god do I love a queue, a quiet supermarket and apologising.

I'm in hogs heaven.


Yesterday a woman was faffing by the biscuits.
Every time she moved away, I swooped, but she kept coming back.
We eventually got too close.
I apologized.
She refused that and apologized.
I double down.

We were basically standing next to each other saying sorry for standing next to each other. :lol:
