Is this the open rant thread or the Old Gits thread we were on about ? :)

It is true to say that ranting is done mostly by Old Gits - but I started this Thread so the younger members of this Forum wouldn't feel left out and could join in !!

People who ask your advice, then ignore it. (all aspects of life)

FPVSteve · February 05, 2016, 03:24:33 PM

People who project everything onto themselves ... "me too!" "omg that happened to me!" etc...

TV Adverts

Used to last 2 minutes every 15 minutes. Now seem to last 5 minutes, every 10 minutes !?

Product cheapening

How many products can you think of that are now smaller and with a reduced composition that are sold as being unchanged?

e.g. bar of Aero - by carefully fully rounding off all corners, the thing is reduced by approx. 5%.
toothpaste - now far more 'watery' than used to be.
boxes of breakfast cereal - more empty 'settling' room than used to be.

Direction givers

People who want to be helpful, giving you directions when their sense of direction is non existent. Needless to say, the directions when followed precisely - do not get you where needed.

PS Some sat nav systems also fall into this category - especially the ones that only accept 5 character post codes !

Using Ryanair

The worst web site I've experienced; whole flying experience equivalent to cattle class.
