    People buying lottery tickets and generally also checking the results on previously bought tickets when they could have researched that for themselves at home. They then go on to buy scratch cards....arrrrh

    The whole process seriously slows up retail checkout for the rest of us.

    And the same is true for people buying electricity or cellphone top-ups - bloody deadbeats! Students buying armfuls of munchies - comes to £4.30 - they have to pay by debit card. Wankers...

    Lol - I actually agree with Greg, as that shit also pisses me off, standing there inside a newsagents waiting to buy a newspaper (with cash!) while fools, chasing a near impossible dream, are buying bloody Lottery tickets and holding everyone back, in much the same way as the diddies who insist on carrying out their whole week's banking at an ATM machine (that's what fooking HOME banking is for, you wankstains), piss me off, when I only want in quickly to withdraw a tenner!
