And don't get me started on the pimples you can't see that live and grow and fester inside your lips that make every bite or drink painful.

This doesn't actually make me angry, but it does bug me more than it should, so I guess this is the thread for it - there is a chain of pubs in London called Draft House (I just had lunch at one). That is not how you spell "draft", unless you are American, or the pubs are actually houses where you are signed up to the army.

I hate "days off" in which I actually have to do 'some work', but only an hour's worth or so. It doesn't feel like a *true* day off.

And I think the Col. would agree with me on this, but I don't like it when American bars spell it draught.
I have complete respect for where the language I speak originated, but "a draught of Budweiser" is about the dumbest phrase ever written in any version of English.

Not our fault, nobody would say "a draught of <insert beer here>" here anyway.

I swear I was at least 25 before I learned that "draught" didn't rhyme with "thought".
― joygoat, Friday, 16 August 2013 16:48 (ten years ago) link
this is innocuous: people that say 24 hours/ 48 hours when they don't actually mean that, they mean 'about a day' or 'about two days'. I had to get a skin test done "48 hours" before my hair appt which was a real pain because my hair appt is tomorrow afternoon but I could only go to the salon in the evening yesterday - but that would be like 44 hours beforehand. They were like, yeah that's 48 hours and I'm like NO IT ISN'T! Don't measure it in hours if you don't care how many hours it is! GODDD!!!

Makes good sense, based on visual analogy with "distraught".

special edition Evil Dead 'book of the dead' dvds with rubberized covers to look like the book of the dead. somehow I wound up with 2 of these for the first movie, and one Book of the Dead edition of ED2.
these things are the fucking WORST.
first, the rubber feels really creepy and yukky in yr hand, like that weird wrinkly feeling deflated balloons gets. second, the rubber fucking STINKS. out of the shrink wrap, you have to hide it somewhere because you can smell it from across the room. and the smell gets on your hands too! I've washed my hands like 3 times tonight and I cannot get that cheap horrible rubber smell off

Haaaaaaa I have ED2 in that version and it smells AWFUL. Eventually, the smell goes away, which is about when the rubber starts to dry rot and crack. It's probably poison.

Was 10 minutes late for an appointment today because none of the Tube ticket machines were open at my station, and the ticket office was shut because the clerk was busy fixing the kaput machines, leaving one cash-friendly machine being stared at FOREVER by a family of tourist stupids, reminiscent of the apes/monolith bits in 2001, oblivious to growing queue. ARGHHHHH.

That, as far as I can tell, you can't buy a replacement top for a SIGG wide mouth bottle. Not the small screw top, but the larger base one.

unclear why any native would need to visit a ticket machine at this point in history

have two friends who i constantly admonish over their refusal to get auto-topup, they respond with vague mutterings about the security state.

I would respond with vague mutterings about limiting opportunities for direct debit-related fuck-ups.
I live in Zone 1 so I spend very little on transport, since Soho and Shoreditch are both 20 minutes' walk away. I don't renew a weekly/monthly card online like *spits* commuters and generally top up with £5 or £10 via card, or just throw a load of accumulated change down the machine. My nearest station is an interchange and heavily used by tourists, so was flabbergasted by the understaffing that morning.

I used to worry about dd fuckups when I worked in an office that dealt with complaints about them but that was a long time ago and probably a good example of the errors of reasoning from anecdotal evidence. Now I think that not having to remember to pay my council tax or get stuck behind idiot tourists at a ticket machine is worth the slim probability of error.
