Phumfeinz Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 One thing that I bloody hate about Christmas is the pictures and excitement over a lorry with Coca Cola written on the side. Makes me want to slap people.That and the yearly Christmas John Lewis ads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted November 7, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted November 7, 2015 I once arrived in China, beginning a job, with all my belongings in my suitcase, and no money in the bank, and I rocked up to the immigration desk and the woman there took a look at my passport, at me, back to my passport again, and just said 'this isn't yours'. Even after about ten minutes arguing, she wasn't having it. She didn't think my driving licence was me either. Of course I was bricking it at this point. Eventually, a supervisor could be found who actually agreed it was me. Goes to show, though, it really can be hard to identify people from 2D pics. All westerners look the same.

Rugeley Villa Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 not too sure what its like nowadays but when i was growing up you supported the team that you was born into and i dont think i know of any friends growing up who went against that grain. ah yes i do, had a mate who started off as a forest fan because of his uncle,who then went to arsenal because of his other uncle,then after a few years went to villa for a few months because of me but is now a leeds fan because of his other mates and his stepdad. hes covered in leeds tattoos now the daft sod.

rjw63 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Quotas for the amount of women in passports, bank notes and most annoyingly jobs. I've frequently been told at work that I will be favoured for a job as a woman. Doesn't make sense and inevitably means that any woman who makes it into top jobs are seen as getting there because of their gender. It actually has the opposite affect of whAt it intends. Women on VT don't exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't imagine changing to a more successful team, which was Liverpool or Arsenal at the timeYou support your local team or the team your family support.

PompeyVillan Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Meat is great, I'd rather die early and eat steak every single day for lunch and dinner.I may have mentioned this before, but where work there is an autistic teenager who will only eat steak. Every meal, steak. Mostly in a baguette but sometimes with chips. Excluding the ill, is perhaps the most frail human being I've ever met. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
