    Someone next to me is eating some vile crunchy stuff out of a bag.

    Rustle, rustle, CRUNCH, MUNCH, rustle, CRUNCH, MUNCH, MUNCH, rustle, ...

    Do you reckon the bag would be digestible if I rammed it down his throat along with some of his teeth?

    I mean it's not as if he eats plastic bags every day like those poor turtles in the Pacific.

      slightly OT but an inexpicable bit of inconsideration involving this happened at the weekend. I was watching John Bishop at the BIC and the twunt behind me had a big noisy bag of sweets- during the gig he started rustling the bag but it went on for a about 5-10 minutes - at first I thought he was just unwrapping all his sweets in one go but when it went on and on and on I turned round to ask him to be quiet and he wasn't unwrapping sweets at all - he was just scrunching the bag up, twisting it and unwrapping it - couldn't believe it, everyone in my row had been muttering about the noise yet none of his friends told him to shut up. within five minutes he had got up and moved to the end of the aisle?!?!?

      some people are so stupidly inconsiderate that it make my blood boil - I did manage to mouth the word 'cock' to him during the interval so felt better for that- probably wont go down so well if you do that at work so get yourself a really annoying ring tone and time it to go off whenever its the most inconvenient for him
      sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice - Asimov (sort of)

      there is no art in a factory, not even in an art factory - Mixerman

      everyone is stupid some of the time - trad.

        That has made me laugh. That's what I'd do.
        Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

            He's back today and he's still ******* annoying. This time its a cold and I want to use the sharp end of the lemsip packet to inflict pain on him.

              If the cold has suppressed his sense of smell, he'll probably start smelling of BO soon.

                I had that at my last place. Another contractor even commented to me that they could not cope with sitting next to her as she made so much noise whilst eating. Unfortunately we all just resorted to listening to music whilst she was eating which was the best part of the day as she never really stopped.

                Apparently the guy that sat in that chair before her burped and farted all day as well as slurped his tea loudly (he was fired but due to incompetence). Wonder if that is your permie guy.

                Unfortunately I find telling someone just makes them more adamant that I am in the wrong rather than them.
