I've had some right wanker students next door
I need to get up for work in the morning.
They need to drink and play tunes until 5am.
I leave for work when they go to bed leaving Venetian Snares/Aphex Twin playing full volume on repeat, every speaker pointed in their direction.
I don't sleep, neither do they.
Looping one really bad song works too.
Aural warfare. Hoo-ra.

» IT Support
I work in IT but...
My mother in law is the worst offender I've met.
One particular case was there new dell PC, which I chose for them and even got them 3 years on-site service (as if that mattered) had frozen.
Now I knew it was my sister-in-law keeping about 90 films seeding in azureus but it was too late to shut that down by then. It was well and truly frozen.
So as you do, I told her to reset the machine.
"how do you do that?"
"Press the big power button on the front of the PC", said I.
"Ok its off now", says she.
"Ok, now switch it back on"
"Ok, I have"...."Its still frozen".
huh?
"Well you obviously haven't switched it off. You need to hold down the big power button on the front of the PC. You will hear the fan stop. The machine will be completely off. No lights or noise at all".
"Ok, its off"
"Turn it back on"
"I have, its still frozen"
"Are you just turning the monitor off?"
"Yeah"
Oh, for fucks sake.

» Call Centres
Is still on the line.....
Everyone has been put on hold, sometimes for hours, so here's what you do. If you get a cold caller, put them on hold and play Glen Campbell's "wichita linesman" on repeat - every time. I guarantee they will not call back.

» Shoddy Presents
My feckin uncle
Every christmas he used to give us these presents that we thought must've been the schizzel because they were dead heavy(i.e. not jumpers or paisley pyjamas) but every year they turned out to be terrible joke presents.
One year it was a broken car radio.
The next it was a log...yeah, a feckin' log.
But as the old sayin goes, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice I need a kick in the arse.
apologies for length
