Why are modern people such cnuts?

I have 2 items for sale. One is a TV, the other is a three-piece-suite. Saturday we had aphonecall from someone interested in the TV, and asked if it was ok to come through the day after at 7pm to have a look at it. It got to 7.15pm on Sunday - no show. We rung them to ask if they were coming, and they had changed their mind - but not had the decency to let us know they werent coming.</p>

Then came yesterday. Someone interested in our suite. They wanted to know if they could come through to look at it, today at 5pm. It was fine by us, but we rushed home from work to give it a good tidy / spruce up. 5 minutes ago they had still not shown, so we gave them a call to see if they were coming. They said that that werent bothering now and they'd leave it. Again, no decency as to give us a call to let us know.</p>

Why do modern people mess others about?</p>

 

Is it ok if I come round on Saturday at 3pm to see your TV and sofa?

 

Because we live in a me me society where people do not respect each other and don't even show common courtesy.</p>

Chavs the lot of them !!!</p>

 

Thats it, its all me me me.</p>

Makes me so bloody mad </p>

 

My advice:

find out where they live, go round and shoot their dog.

 

RE: Is it ok if I come round on Saturday at 3pm to see your TV and sofa?

 feel free. I live at Hillsbro. But I wont be home.

 

There is no such thing as society, just individual men women and children

 

Neither had dogs.....

but the first one had a fishtank, so I ate that instead. And I slapped the woman around the face with the fish.

 

I tried to give away a fully functional fridge freezer 3 years ago

We needed, and so bought, a bigger one.  So I put an ad in the Free-Ads to say Fridge Freezer - free to a good home, good working order - can demonstrate. Collection only.

I got two responders.  The first said she'd take it unseen, as she lived in Bradford and didn't want to come over.  So as long as I would deliver it, she'd give me the nothing I was asking.  When I said to her that I couldn't deliver as it was too big to fit in my car, she said, &quot;Well, can't you hire a van?&quot;.  Speechless.

The other weighed in with, &quot;How long a warranty do I get?&quot;.  Erm, none, love.  It works.  I will have it switched on and working when you get here.  Once you take it, you're on your own.

&quot;So what if I get it home and it stops working?&quot;. I'll tell you what, love. Bring it back and I'll give you double your money back.

&quot;Funny&quot;, she said and hung up.

Moral of the story?
People. cnuts. Period.

I ended up taking it to the dumpit site.  Unloaded it out of my mate's trailer and a bloke ran over saying, &quot;does that still work?&quot;.  I said yes and it was in the back of his van before I knew where I was!  

 

Thank you Margaret. (nt)

 

Can I come over and see you demonstrate a fridge/freezer?

I bet it's fascinating!

 

That's where it all started, Redders!!

 

Of course

Come Saturday, between 3 and 4:45.
Otherwise I can't guarantee I'll be in.
And you'd better not let me down.

 

No problem

I'd like to bring a bottle of pop so you can chill that, and perhaps a chicken to see it freeze, thank you!

 

so ya saying old people aren't?

what about post-modernists?

 

RE: so ya saying old people aren't?

I mean people of the modern world. That includes the old farts

 

So at what point do people become "not of the modern world"

Cause no cnuts then - Hitler not a lovely person, Atilla The Hun not a lovely person!

 

And don't we know it?!

 

You've got yer daft head on!
