The drunken rant thread

Well, I'm not really drunk, but I have been to the pub (1pint! - was driving), and thought that this should be a thread everyone can post to when they're drunk (and, it seems, sad and lonely :p). Might be amusing


N.B. rants here must be drunk, but passing comments may be sober (or drunk)

My rant concerns... bad service from staff. The other day, I went to a camera shop, determined to buy a particular £1,500 camera. I told the guy I was going to buy it and I wanted to know what was a good lens, with fairly good zoom.

Rather than recommend a nice lens he wanted to sell me, and it least show me it, and even on a cheapo camera fit it to a demo and let me try it out, he just points to a cabinet behind him and mumbles "we got all those". I couldn't even read the numbers on the labels! So I decided he didn't actually want to sell me anything at all, and I asked to speak to another member of staff (I said I'd spoken to another guy when I came in before. I hadn't.) This guy was a little more helpful, and put a little more effort into trying to sell me something.

And I blame it all on...British weather. It had been sunny, but that day was dreary and rainy,

Rant over, I pass the baton.
