RANT OF THE MONTH: PEOPLE DOING THEIR WEEKLY SHOP AT THE PETROL STATION

This month, the Angry Man has been getting mostly pissed off about… people doing their ‘big shop’ at the petrol station 

“FILLING YOUR CAR UP WITH FUEL IS ALWAYS AN INCONVENIENCE. AND NINE TIMES OUT OF TEN THE LIGHT FLICKS ON WHEN YOU’RE LATE FOR A CHEEKY DINNER DATE AT NANDOS. BUT WHAT MAKES IT EVEN WORSE IS THOSE BASTARDS WHO DECIDE TO DO THEIR WEEKLY SHOP WHILE HOGGING A FILLING BAY!”

I remember the days when petrol stations sold petrol, tic tacs, AA batteries and nothing else. Simple but beautiful.

Now I’m all for having a selection of energy drinks and hot pasties to choose from when lunch on the go is a necessity. But is there really the need to get the local supermarket bloody involved?

Jesuz, I went in one the other day that didn’t just have baskets but trollies too. It’s a serious WTAF!

Who are these people buying frozen peas, bog roll and pork chops while filling up their cars anyway? It’s okay mate, I’ll just sit here for 20 minutes while you decide what Twiddles wants in his cat bowl this week. You might as well get a made to order latte and have that bloody panini toasted too.

I’ve got nowhere to be, mate, so I’ll happily just sit behind your Hyundai Elantra and catch up on my emails. Well I would if I could use my bloody phone in a petrol station! Grrrrrr.
