spunko12345 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Absolute cunts to a man. I'm walking down the street and there are three grown adults fannying about so I stop and watch them for a bit just to try and understand why anyone would demean themselves so much. I walked on when one said that we should be paying more for street artists and we should give at least a fiver. What a racket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is London for you. ''£6 per pint London''. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracii Guns Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 The brass neck on some people! While there's a place for buskers, if I enjoy a musician I see playing, I'm more likely to download their music and enjoy it that way. Nobody carries cash on them like they used to. In the summer I did give to a busker on the underground as he was playing Stairway. A song worth paying for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 In London, a few of the pubs put this gizmo out on the counter first and when I said ''I wanted to pay cash'' they would produce a face like a smacked arse.

Strange place. I've never gotten a face like a smacked arse on paying cash but yeah they are predominantly card. I prefer carrying a card these days, I carry a phone and a big fuck off vaporiser as it is, the less shit I have in my pockets the better. Never had a wallet in my life, can't stand em. Ain't got fuck all to put in it anyway, only got the one debit card, no credit cards, driving lisence i don't see the point of carrying around with me all the time. Oyster card I suppose I have on me a fair bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange place. I never carry cash. Don’t see the point. Why does anybody need to use cash in 2020? It’s so much easier to keep track of your spending using a card and you don’t have to ruin all your pockets with a tonne of fucking shrapnel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just completely alien to me, using cards, and makes me feel uncomfortable; I prefer the feeling of, the cash you have in your pocket indicates the cash you are able to spend. Also, I am too old-fashioned to change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its so tiresome, always digging into your pockets to get the right change out, then you get sick of that and start giving the big notes everywhere just to quicken things up and you end up with a load of fivers and sharpnel in your pockets, its proper annoying.

What did you used to do when you used cash? Empty your granny's penny jar into your pocket like ballast? It has never possessed any problems for me, nor many others.

Len Cnut Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Furthermore, you gotta use the card anyway to get the fuckin' money out of the machine to then take that money to go pay for shit, unless your working cash in hand artexing or whatever, whats the fuckin' point, you might as well use the card to pay for shit surely, since you're using the cunt anyway. 'I like the feeling of cash in my hand', there's something fuckin' OCD about that, you're willing to go that far out of our way just to grope a fuckin' tenner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
