I'm not a whinger. But....

Arseface · 05-09-2008, 02:03 PM

Well, I know last time I tried this it ended badly, but lets not go into that. I'm rebooting this game coz I think it's got merit and replay value, so here goes.

I got this off of my favourite radio station Triple M. This is if you have a complaint thats too petty for anyone to really care about it, post it here and we'll sort the buggers out, after all, its what heroes do...

Heres a good example I got off of the site.

It was posted by "Lisa", and I've edited it to make it more family friendly

" I'm not a whinger, but I hate people who don't jog paper before they staple it. What's next? Jumble the pages on your desk and put a staple through the centre?!
For heavens sake just hold the pages together and tap them twice on any hard, flat surface. Only Stumpy (and maaaybe One-Eye) are exempt. All the rest of you - SMARTEN UP! "

That made me chuckle. Now whinge away!!

PS. Nearly forgot the most Important thing! Every whinge needs to start with the phrase "I'm not a whinger, but..."

(The observant of you will notice that I copied the body from the original thread

)

Glad this is back!

I'm not a whinger, but I hate when someone uses up the last of the toilet tissue and doesn't bother telling you or replacing it so you're caught out the next time you go to the toilet. Is it so hard for someone to say "oh hey, just so you know we're out of paper"? Clearly it is...

I'm not a whinger, but what is with chicks and the whole leaving the toilet seat down thing (yes, I know it's not all of you)? Surely if I have to go to the trouble of putting it up, you should have to go to the trouble of putting it down? It's only fair! I'm sure the founding fathers would agree: It is the basis of democracy.

I'm not a whinger, but why is it guys always seem to feel the need to sit with their legs wide open on public transport? Do they not know that if they just closed them then at least two other people could have a seat? Is it some kind of manly display of hidden genitalia? Is it their way of saying "hey ladies - this is what you could go home with if you like"? Whatever the reason, it's damn inconsiderate and many is the time on a crowded train I have had to sit on my suitcase near the floor only to have nothing but the lower half of men to look at in every direction, each taking up a whole two seats. It really isn't as pleasant as you may think...

Damn people and their inconsiderate public transport ways. I'll get them one day....

I'm not a whinger, but why is school so crap?

I'm not a whinger, but is it too much trouble to ask that I be allowed to roam the house in nothing but my pants? And, I mean, c'mon, if it doesn't bother me that the pants I've been wearing for the past fortnight have begun to grow moss, then it shouldn't bother you either, k? I don't care that it scares the neighbours - perhaps they should grow a pair.

I'm not naming names.

Perhaps they should stop looking through your windows

I'm not a whinger, but why is it that AFL isn't big anywhere else in the world? I mean, cmon! It's the greatest game around!

I'm not a whinger, but why did humans invent an entire conspiracy theory about 9/11?

Angel · 05-20-2008, 12:06 PM

I'm not a whinger, but is it all the TV chefs bang on about healthy eating and present shows about good food etc, but none of them know what it's like to try and feed a family of four on less than £30 per week? And all of it being healthy too? They'd never manage it because healthy food is too damn expensive and they'd never cope on such a tiny budget...

I'm not a whinger but... Why can't I win the lottery? Granted I never buy a ticket, but how has that ever stopped anyone before. Apart from the obvious reason.

Jack of Names · 05-20-2008, 03:04 PM

I'm not a whinger but, why the hell can't you get good chocolate these days? I mean it's so expensive and half of it is just disgusting as hell and doesn't have the right *SNAP* to it.

I'm not a whinger but, why am I so tired all the time.

Angel · 05-20-2008, 06:46 PM

I'm not a whinger, but why do people insist that Pepsi is somehow superior to Coke? Coke is sweeter, fizzier and does better ad campaigns than the tired old football players with insane amounts of money being contracted to sell an inferior Coke-copying rip off (although it's the most work David Beckham has done in a while considering he doesn't seem to be able to kick a ball for crap these days).

No one asks for Pepsi in a fast food restaurant - they ask for Coke. Then the serving guy/girl apologises profusely for only being able to offer Pepsi and the customer asks if they have Fanta instead.

I rest my case.

I'm not a whinger but, why does nobody give Dr. Pepper any credit?
