43 wtf!

Bin – sighted in Edinburgh… hard enough to find a bin but this one had NO opening! What’s the point

In Edinburgh, someone is covering the bases – all the bases – with the following sign…

‘WE APOLOGISE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE’

I wonder if this not only covers local traffic problems but also world poverty, consistently bad customer service, global warming, the BA and BAA cock-up at Heathrow T5…
The only question that remains is WHO’s having a guilty conscience?

... ok, I suppose I never really considered any other ways to open up a plastic bottle… I should be forever thankful to the makers of Rose’s Lime Juice Cordial! They made me take a step back and look at all the other – potentially disastrous – possibilities of opening up their bottles!

... or what does really happen if you wash your jeans with your belt…
NEXT go through some great effort to ensure that their (rather dumb?) customers don’t wash their top-range jeans with the belt… Common sense anyone?

This is real – two extracts from FirstScotRail’s responses to complaints letters (same incident):

“…Unfortunately leaves on the lines caused problems in the area and caused severe disruption to our service.” Giant, concrete leaves? Then they go on to explain (just as well as I am confused…)... “I can assure you that leaves on the track can and do affect the performance of our trains. When leaves fall onto the track and get wet (Oh no!), passing trains crush them (that’s awful!) and this creates a hard coating on the rails. Due to the slippery conditions this causes, our Drivers have to break earlier for stations and signals and move off again slowly.” Not sure if that explains why the train didn’t stop at all – or did it just skid past?

Letter two: “I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused by the delay on your service, which was caused by low rail adhesion on earlier services.” Sure thing – at least I know now what they are talking about. Bad, bad leaves!

... the shelf is still here! This must be the PC way of saying ‘we burnt the bread’ because that could offend burns victims, breads or anything of the color used to describe burnt things…

What’s the world coming to? I must be stupid, thoughout my entire childhood, I never looked at it this way… nor did my mom…

A SANTA in an Australian department store said yesterday he has been sacked for saying “ho, ho, ho” and not the preferred “ha, ha, ha” because the word “ho”, which is American slang for whore, could offend women.

Ok, there’s this shop on Princess Street having a Fire Sale… however, there’s no fire on sale! WTF! If that’s not false advertising, I don’t know what is!

At ‘My Cafe’ at Morrisons in Fort William they serve the All Day Breakfast until 4:30PM… not sure where the ALL DAY part comes in…

I saw this headline today – now, someone tell me who would have a problem with them going on strike!
