A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Water off a ducks back here Annie I take no notice of them at all!#
:roll:

They know that a phone call from me brightens up their dull little lives!
It's like that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
All your summers come at once
An oasis in the desert

shall I go on?....

You know what gets my goat? People who when they hear a pop song of yesteryear say "Thats before my time"!!! And then they dismiss the song without giving it a chance!! :roll: And... make remarks about "can't you play modern stuff as well?"
Whats that mean??
When i was a kid in the 60's i loved the Rolling Stones.At the time i thought all there songs were originals only later did i realize that a lot of them were covers which in turn made me delve into the history of the popular song.
Nothings too old!! Nothings modern!! It's all been done before!! There's only a limited number of music chords!!
We dont say Mozart or Handel were before our time!! We enjoy the beauty of the music!!
Right now i'm off to work.

And another thing that gets my goat is people who just demand things and don't have the good grace to ask politely!
What happened to good manners

and people talking over you when you are mid sentence!

I agree with both of those , I just don't know what happened to good manners .

Another thing that gets my goat is when at the cash out the person behind hovers over you when trying to put your pin number :shock: also people with a trolley load of shopping in the hand basket queue, thats my rant out of the way for today.

Slow internet connections

People reading over your shoulder

Kids that still live at home

Queue jumpers

Here's something that gets my goat


Certain people, who shall remain nameless....... but they know who they are, who expect you to do a job but only give you half the information you require.
