Fake pokemon yellow in the app store!

iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad users.

On the off chance your brain stops momentarily working and you go to the app store and consider buying that 'Pokémon Yellow' on there that's the second highest selling app, think twice. It doesn't work past the opening screen. Not to mention Nintendo would never license such a product to Apple or anyone else for distribution.

If you've already spent the 69p or so on it, you deserved to have your money taken.

Another Blog

Sorry I've not posted in a few days, I've been a little busy with the band.

I also have a brand new blog that I've started for when I go away on tour. If you like Pink Floyd, please check it out! Follow if you wish

People who think they are right

I hate it when people try to tell you something, thinking they are right, or lie to you thinking you don't know that they are lying. They just make themselves sound like idiots! That's why I love winding people up, or calling their bluffs.

I saw this video the other day and it's EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Of course he's allowed to take photos of the building, there is no law telling him he cant. That dude/woman (I dont quite know...) was being a twat because they thought they could be. Such idiots!

Watch the video below and you will see what I mean:



What are your thoughts on it?

Happy New Year 2012!

Happy new year guys!

Enjoy:

Delivery Idiots

So I had a parcel delivered to me at work today with a load of poster in.....but the idiots at the sorting office had squashed it and damaged the ends of all the posters....meaning I couldn't have put them up because they looked appalling. What a waste of money having them printed.

Idiots!

Oh well...it could be worse:

The Turkey Was Well & Truely Stuffed

So I am currently VERY annoyed.

My band, (The UK Pink Floyd Tribute Show) were meant to be flying out to Istanbul in Turkey last Friday for a Christmas mini-tour. We all had our bags packed, our VISAs had been sorted, and some of us had even taken out insurance on our health and instruments, when we get an email saying this:

"Hi guys, we decided to wait until the last minute to book your flights from the UK to Turkey in an attempt to save some money. However when we went to book them this morning there were no avaliable seats left on any flights"

ARGH!

Giving change

Ok, this thing REALLY gets on my nerves.

When I buy something and pay in cash, say a bottle of cider (mmm cider) for £2.04 and I have to use a £10 note, the cashier often gives me the change in this order:

£5 note
loose change

So that the coins are sliding about on top of the paper note! It makes so much more sense to give me the coins in my hand and then let me grab the note with my fingers! Surely they would want it that way too? Are people always this stupid? It's not the end of the world, but it sure is annoying!

Anyone else have this problem?

Christmas? Bah Humbug

Anyone know how many days it is until Christmas?

I don't. No one bought me an advent calendar.

I've not even started my Christmas shopping yet. Jeez I'm behind. Anyone wanna do my shopping for me?

Plus I've not even put any decorations up yet.....


Oh well, Merry Christmas I suppose!

My Tram Experience (Explicit)

So this surfaced yesterday. Makes me sick to think someone like this exists.

WARNING - This video has explicit language throughout:



The BTP (British Transport Police) tonight said on their Twitter account: "We've arrested a 34yo woman for racially aggravated public order offence as a result of #mytramexperience video brought to our attn."

Nightmare at work

Well today was a nightmare at work! I've never been so busy!

Let me explain what I do.

I work as a demonstrator for a global music company, and I travel the UK with a mobile concession stand filled with digital pianos, digital drum kits, arranger keyboards ect. Well today it was VERY busy, I had lots and lots of interest in the products (especially the drum kits) and I collected lots of peoples details.

Angry Birds

Not something that annoys me for once!

I absolutely LOVE Angry Birds. I was among one of the first few hundred to download the original game, and I currently rank in the top 5% of all Angry Birds, Angry Birds seasons and Angry Birds Rio players of all time, and its because of this that I am posting this image:

Indian Summer you say?

So its the first weekend in October, and everyone here in the UK spent it sunbathing, having a BBQ and generally doing summer things. Not October things like shivering and drying off from the rain.

However, I was stuck inside work. In what was basically a giant greenhouse. Wearing a black uniform. In direct sunlight. It must have hit 35 degrees Celsius in there today. I burned. And work had the CHEEK to send me a new uniform. A fleece. Nice to know head office have a sense of humour..

Your Windows PC has sent us an error report!

So I've just spent the last 42 minutes trolling the scam pc error company that just rang me up.
Ah the fun I had, I told them I had 8 windows PCs and that ill do eenie meenie to chose one, which I did (windows 98 here we go). Then I said it was "dumping physical memory" and kept them waiting while it did that. Then I said it needed to install updates, that internet explorer 3 was out of date and needed updating, that I couldn't find their remote access site ect. So basically by now I had already wasted nearly 25 minutes of their time.

Then I said id use another computer (my mac....shhh dont tell them yet...) and carried on for the next 20 minutes until I told them I couldn't find the start button.

He hung up on me when I finally said I was on a Mac.

I love doing this to scam companies. They wanna take my money? Well I wanna waste their time!

Injury Lawyers 4 U ect

I'm fed up with the number of Injury Lawyers with their "no win on fee" nonsense and claims companies spamming my TV with their rubbish adverts all the time. I was watching a program about the history of the piano and every ad break there was at least 4 different adverts that try to get you to sue other people. That's about as unrelated from piano history as you can get!

Oh and the other adverts that annoy me on British TV are the whole "we buy your gold for cash" ones or the "send us your mobile and we will give you so much money (not really, we are only going to give you £3.19 for your iphone harharhar)" ones. They annoy me so much!

Tyre Troubles

So I picked up my new car yesterday (a very nice Peugeot 206) and today when I got in from town I realised I'd left my phone in the car, so I went back outside to go and get it only to be greeted with a flat tyre on the front right wheel.

**Not actual tyre...**

I was not impressed

Luckily my aunt and uncle had bought me a 12v pump and tyre pressure kit for christmas and I had yet to use it. So after a little looking I found it and used it to re-inflate the tyre enough to get me the 1.2 miles to the nearest garage. It only cost me £10 to get it fixed and I was in and out in under 15 minutes.

So thankfully I'm back on the road. I just hope nothing else happens any time soon! I cant quite afford it at the moment...

Eating the fuel

It's 2.25am here in the UK and I've just got in from a job I had to do at short notice. I ended up having to drive 114.8 miles this evening to a club and back as part of my work. That's a third of the tank already gone, and I already shoved £45 in today :/ Not good. Oh well, I am exhausted, and I need to be up early to, surprise surprise, do some more driving....

Recycling

Ok this has been a HUGE annoyance of mine for the last few years.

In England, we have our recycling collected (plastics, glass and paper). Each type is sorted into little tubs (where I come from its blue for plastics, green for paper and black for glass). they very big, only the size an A3 piece of paper and about a foot deep, so not surprisingly, after a heavy weekend reading all the rubbish that is pushed through my mailbox, or drinking plenty of booze, sometimes the boxes tend to overflow. Take the paper tub for example, any normal person with a brain cell would think, "Oh, I know, I will use a cardboard box to put the rest of my recycling in. I can use A) a cereal box B) a box laying around the house or C) next time I'm at the supermarket, I will take home one of the FREE packing boxes they have under the counters"

But this, it seems, is not the case. Because I'm constantly seeing people who think it is ok to put their excess paper in a plastic bag! A plastic bag?! Are these people really that stupid?

Seriously annoys me.

And these people are allowed to vote and breed.

Amy Winehouse

After the death of singer Amy Winehouse on the 23rd of July, I posted this:

I think its very sad that it takes a "death" for people to "become a fan" in a sense. im sure there were many people who didnt like her, but now decided to run out and buy CDs (or download tracks). I think the best example of this happening was when Michael Jackson Died, and his sales increased dramatically, even more than when lennon or elvis died. Its a shame that we live in a society that cant appreciate good music until something drastic happens and the media push it in our faces.

Now it turns out her album Back To Black is the highest selling album of the decade. The album has shot up to number 1 on iTunes charts in every country. Billboard has reported that the album sold 37,000 copies within 36 hours of her death.

With sales like this, musicians nowadays are worth more dead than alive!

Don't EVER refer to Mega Bloks as LEGO

One thing that really makes my blood boil is when you go into a shop and you see boxes of Mega Bloks among the boxes of LEGO. You wouldn't put a Nokia brick in with the iPhones would you!

Mega Bloks are not LEGO, nor are they anywhere near the standard of LEGO.

When I was younger and I would find a box of loose LEGO at a car boot sale, I would sort through it and take out all the "fake" bricks and give it back to the person selling it!

I think this has to be one of my biggest annoyances. I haven't played with LEGO for years, since I was a child but it still gets on my nerves!


Also it's LEGO. Not LEGOS. It is not plural, it is a collective term like "hair". You don's say, "Ooh I like the colour of your hairs" do you!

ARGH!
