Ripped from another members FB wall.
IDIOT SIGHTING No.1
My daughter and I went to the McDonald's drive through check-out window
to pay our bill and I gave the clerk a £5 note.
Our total bill was £4.20, so I also handed her a 20 pence piece.
She said, 'You gave me too much money.'
I said, 'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me £1 back.'
She sighed and went to get the Manager who asked me to repeat my request.
I did so, and he handed me back the 20 pence and said 'We're sorry but we do not do that kind of thing.'
The clerk then proceeded to give me back 80 pence in change.
Do not confuse the clerks at MacDonald's !!

We had to have the garage door repaired. The GARADOR repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a 'large' enough motor on the opener.
I thought for a moment, and said that we had the largest one GARADOR made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.
He shook his head and said, 'Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower.'
I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two...'
We haven't used Garador repair since.
Happened in Moor Park , near Watford .

I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbour call the Highways Department to request the removal of the 'DEER CROSSING' sign from our road.
The reason: 'Too many deer are being hit by cars on this stretch of road! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing, any more.'
Story from Potters Bar, Hertfordshire.
IDIOT SIGHTING No 4
My daughter went to a local Kentucky Fried Chicken and ordered a Taco.
She asked the person behind the counter for 'minimal lettuce.'
He said he was sorry, but they only had Iceberg Lettuce.
From South Oxhey , Hertfordshire.

I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked,
'Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?'
To which I replied, 'If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?'
He smiled knowingly and nodded, 'That's why we ask.'
Happened at Luton Airport
IDIOT SIGHTING No 6
The traffic light on the corner buzzes when the lights turn red and it is safe to cross the road.
I was crossing with an intellectually challenged friend of mine.
She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for.
I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.
Appalled, she responded, 'What on earth are blind people doing driving?!'
She is a Local County Council employee in Harrow , Middlesex. (And she's NOT blonde)
IDIOT SIGHTING No7
When my husband and I arrived at our local Ford dealer to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it.
We went to the Service Department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the Driver's door.
As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door-handle and discovered that it was unlocked.
'Hey,' I announced to the Fitter/Mechanic, 'it’s open!'
His reply: 'I know. I already did that side.'
This was at the Ford dealership in St Albans , Hertfordshire.
STAY ALERT! They walk among us. AND THEY BREED! |

And copied/pasted then had (most) of the american specific lingo converted into 'proper english innit'.
Facebook bollocks, just like 'people are putting stickers on your gate so they can come back and steal your dog' or 'if you have a piece of paper on your back window dont stop or else you'll get bummed'.  ____________________ RS125 > CBR6 > SV650S > ZX636R > GSX1300RZ Hayabusa > 06 RSVR Mille > SV1000S > Street Triple 765 RS |

The most worrying thing is, people on my FB who I know to be fairly intelligent people are sharing things that are so blatantly obviously fake or made up, yet don't question for one second the validity of what they're posting.
"New cure for caner which is 50,000 times strong than chemo. Share this status, it may help save a life".
Honestly, it almost makes me want to punch the monitor at how stupid some of the people I know, actually are.
You may think, "Well these people can't be that intelligent if they're sharing this shit" but there's a big difference between intelligence and common sense. My brother is probably one of the most intelligent people I know, yet he's also the cleverest dumb person I know.
I know a few people like that as well, super smart but the common sense of a gold fish. |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 12 years, 128 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
