Buskers.

I know what small tunnels underground need, a pillock and a guitar taking up loads of room playing shit music that no one listens too because we all have earphones in.

I went busking with a samba band once, I don't think your earphones would have done much good in that instance...

Ignorant people who walk around with their headphones in ignoring the world around them :whistle:

Why does it matter to anyone else that I have earphones in? They don't get disturbed and we weren't going to start chatting anyway, so leave me alone and I'll leave you alone.

My Police and Society lecturer who looks like a 40 year old Essex born Gareth Bale attempting to make the worst fucking jokes i've ever heard. Just teach me and stop trying so hard to be funny.

Also laughing out loud to yourself after your joke is met by silence is just as grating.

It was quite clearly tongue in cheek..however....I find people with headphones in the most unlikely to say thanks after holding the door open and most likely to completely blank anything that's going on around them, be it walking into someone or just becoming a stereotypical southerner who avoids any form of eye contact with people.

I always think your chances of being mugged are greater if headphoned-up. I mean, you can't hear them coming for you can you?

I had a DHR hoodie that I gave to a female pal cos I didn't wear it any more, and she still wears it for moseying down the shops or whatever. And about 4 times a year she texts me to say she's had another over excited balding and bearded man come bounding up to ask about her favourite Bomb20 track or whatever. True story.

I used to have an Alec Empire vs Elvis Presley t-shirt that had the "He's dead, that's the way it is" slogan on the back. I went to the local pub with my parents and coincidentally met up with one of my mum's friends who was nicknamed "Elvie girl" due to her insane levels of fanaticism for Elvis. I sat with my back to the wall and had my arms crossed over my chest all night.

Could be a recurring bit in a reboot of The Fast Show, this. Cringe comedy misunderstandings brought about by 1990s breakcore apparel.

The Proper Fast (I'm talking 180bpm minimum) Show.

I'm game if you are.

I sometimes run with headphones in. And when I do I like to sing along. It's remarkably anti-social. I can see why people would be annoyed.

That's before you take into account the dance moves I incorporate.

And the fact that he is listening to the rhythmic stylings of "Anal c***".

When people know my name and say they remember me from some shared experience months/years before but I haven't got a fucking scooby doo who they are

Yep had that a few times when I used to go clubbing with my mates who would see a few lads and they'd start chatting to me asking about how I was doing and I wouldn't have a clue who they were even when my mates told me their names when they went away. I'm pretty honest about it though, I just come clean, it may hurt them a bit, but I'm not going to lie, I'm past all that awkward social shit now.

The wage discrepancy between London and where I live. A mate of mine has just left our company, to do literally the exact same job at our clients firm in London and his wage jumped from £17k to £86k. I'm not even joking. What makes it worse is that he's been given advice by his new employer to set himself up as a PLC, so he somehow pays much less tax (something to do with him 'paying himself' minimum wage and declaring the rest as dividends to shareholders. I'm pleased for him, but shit, that wage his mental for what he does - it's a very low skilled job

It's a mix between my employer being under=paying swines, and his new company overpaying him. In reality a fair wage for his job would be somewhere inbetween. But yeah, that's what he's earning now. Crazy

Are you sure he's not bullshitting you/become some kind of DRUG BARON? Sounds utterly inconceivable that you could go from earning £17k to £86k performing the same role.

He's not the type. That's what he's earning. It's contracting, which pays more anyway, but yeah, that's what he's jumped to! What's kind of annoying how he's managing to avoid paying less tax as well as getting paid a fortune, but hey, if I could do it...

I don't think I could be friends with him anymore.
