been out to the shops.

Snark/general bitchiness

  1. Mad respect to the mum who looked about 10 months pregnant juggling a 4 year old and a toddler in this heart! I struggle with 1 toddler.

  2. To the older couple waiting in line to do a passport: fuck right off. Your both obviously retired you dont have to do it at lunch time. More over the point your not gonna get it this side of 2024 so why leave it till late december? wish aus post had've said "sorry there is an entire queue of people trying to ship christmas presents, kindly piss off till january, or at least not doing peak hours!"

  3. to the lady having a bitch: Yes, lines suck. Yes its annoying that you had to come collect it. No I dont care that its medical weed. We're all stuck here together so shut the f up!

  4. To the mum who named her kid Malibu. WHY? Did you not think how that was gonna sound when they are a 5 year old and not listening to you? "Malllllibuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu". Its almost worse than that raefarty post on the other site a couple of weeks back.

Love chrismas but it brings out the worst in some people I swear.

Pensioners taking up valuable time and space are the bane of my existence. Yes we should cherish the elderly, but they should have some awareness.

Malibu is a bad name. That is all.

Yep! Buggers have got betwen 9-12 to get stuff done, and then again 2-5. Not in anyones way, no stress if you make a mistake or something. Like. WHY do it now during lunch time? just dumb.

I also love it when they hit the road at 7:45 am. I'm not saying they have nowhere to be, but maybe make those appointments a tad later if possible.

I join their ranks in fewer than 20 years, hopefully. I'll try to remember this when I have all that time. But I probably won't. 😆

Its not an issue if your not pottering around. but if your struggling a bit, or if you wanna have a chat to the person its totally fine just please dont hold everyone else up.

Oi I'm not pottering anywhere, yet!
Just looking forward to the days when I can.
