    Why are people allowed to make a load of racket in a library? Just tell them to fuck off.

    It sounds like the 'females' were in the right place to make noise, so you have to wonder what Mahow was doing in there other than lurking to sniff their seats.

    They were in a study room (meant to be quieter) than the regular bit.

    They should have rented out a room on the first and second floors to practice their shit presentation.

    I hate that I've only now found out BBC's website has a pidgin English version.

    https://www.bbc.com/pidgin/media-40969682

    It must be the only way Jimmy wants to hear the news from now on.

    It's Pigeon English. More specifically, Nigeria's take on it.

    On Amazon live chat as my Kindle isn't working properly.

    I tell them instantly that I've tried multiple USB ports, multiple cables, restarted my device and my PC.

    His first thing is to go through them again.

    But, I've already done that

    But asks me to do it all the same. He then tells me to restart my PC with the Kindle attached

    How am I meant to keep the chat open (on my PC) if I restart it?

    He assures me that we will not get disconnected as long as I don't close the window and of course the chat is dead. I think he told me to do it just because he didn't want to talk to me anymore So fuck you Indrani you prick.

    Vignesh is helping me now and he's much better.

    I did it to prove him wrong and because he was taking about 5 minutes per response so I was hoping I'd get someone more competent.

    Seems that it's not my Kindle anyway but my PC.

    The USB ports are fucked. They're charging devices but not recognising any of them, I can plug something in and nothing.

    External hard drives are working fine though :\

    Oh god.

    I hate stupid people and, moreso, stupid mistakes that I can’t believe nobody has spotted. Like before I phone Specsavers in old swan and the recorded message says to book an appointment go to www dot Specsavers dot old swan. The fuck? It should be dot com slash old swan. Obviously the guy recording it got flustered, messed up, but then they used it anyway. Muppet! In fact, ima tweet them.

    I'm having a real issue with old people refusing to adapt to modern life at the moment. In particular, they seem unable to accept a) that mobile phones are now widespread and b) that people often use them.

    Another good example of this, in my experience, is their dislike for contactless cards. They seem to think some sort of black magic is afoot.

    My mother in law refuses to use contactless because she's paranoid that someone will use some sort of scanning device near her and steal her money while the card is in her wallet. I don't have any fucking idea why she thinks not using it to pay will prevent that.

    There's a load of people now really have their back up about phones. Really taking offence to the fact that a slab of metal and glass is more interesting than them.

    Tell her that, contrary to the name, the field on it has such a narrow range that contact is unavoidable.

    If it's just proximity-based then literally just owning a card will see your account emptied by ne'er do wells?

    A phone requires a secondary authentication factor (thumbprint/face unlock etc) so is therefore safer.

    tl:dr: your mother in law is an idiot

    My nan thought it meant she could only spend Ł30 on it i.e. she has a daily limit. No hope with some people.

    I wish my Mum would just add things to dictionary when she's typing up her reports which she makes me proof read. Every single time she ends up getting names wrong, I'm currently checking a report where she has used two variations of spelling for one name and I have no idea which is the correct one.

    Doesn't fuck me off but there's nowhere to put it.

    Huge gas leak just outside our house, they've got 3 vans, have dug up half of our driveway and our coming in to the house every 30 minutes or so to take readings. Haven't switched off the gas yet but they're unsure if they might have to do it later.

    So what are you complaining about? That some people have come to fix a potentially lethal gas leak in your house for free?

    I'm not complaining, hence the first sentence.

    There's not a 'shit that's going on near me' or something thread though or even a 'Late Night thread' (let's make one) so this is the next best thing.
