Irritations

You did see pay toilets occasionally in the past but they have pretty much faded away.

And phone booths where you could pay to make a call are now pretty much non-existent.

We still have pay-to-use public toilets but not as many as in days past. There are still a few phone booths but I can’t recall the last time that I saw one being used. Most have probably been vandalised which is a popular pastime these days.

We don’t have that one over here c.d. but it would be annoying if we did.

Retail theft is rampant. Not only by individuals but also by what they call flash mobs. A group of young teens will run into the store with big garbage bags and basically sweep everything off the shelves and then run out. It has gotten so bad that some stores have had to close.

Do you have toilets over there that you have to pay to use?

People that do insanely dangerous things for ‘fun.’ As far as I’m concerned if you need to hang from a beam with one hand at the top of a 600+ metre skyscraper just to get a bit of meaning into your life then you’re probably insane and possibly a danger to others.

I’ve always had a thing about people saying “Small world isn’t it” when realising they have a mutual acquaintance with somebody.
I’m sure those same people, when chatting with those who have no mutual acquaintances don’t feel the need to say
“wow, we have no mutual friends, what a huge world we live in”

(I realise this is unique to me, and my particular psychosis)
