Anyone else get angry when random people walk past you washing your car and try and crack the classic "you can do mine after" line
For some reason it really annoys me
Should start saying "yeah sure no problem for £50"

Either Steve has been reading Detailing World or this is a bit coincidence The same thread was on there the other day.
It is annoying that nobody can ever think of anything new to say. One of our neighbours usually says "you'll polish all the paint off" or something to that effect. I never know what to say so usually just give it an awkward laugh

I used to get really angry about dumb ass comments to the point of a Defcon 2 ROIDZ attack.
Now I just think to myself they are just being neighbourly and trying to make conversation.

I like it!
People use the stupid comments as an ice breaker as they have nothing original to say. Hardly anything to get mad about, unless you're socially handicapped.
I usually just reply with a "Sure, how are you doing?" and conversation evolves.

Theres the difference between Denmark and England. Over there its probably a nice, sincere thing to say, and they probably do just want to talk to you. Over here they actually probably want you to clean thier car, for nothing, and if you dont, they'll come back later and key yours.

Its just a thing neighbours say, they are being nice.
Would you prefer them to say 'you can do mine next' or 'why are you washing that heap of shit'?

Dosn't bother me tbh. As said, its just an original, neighbourly thing to say.
Any1 who gets annoyed with it, must be pretty dull if they can't see they are just being friendly/having a bit of banter.
I normally just reply with "ive ran out of water" or something along them lines.

i know its being nice, but its cringeworthy, and also feel like they are trying to suggest they are too good to wash there own car and that you are below them enough to do theres for free

Have you maybe thought that they don't actually want you to wash there car, but are just being nice?? I would say that's more or less whats happening.

What's wrong with not talking to me and making no eye contact whatsoever?

Used to get it all the time when I lived with my parents. Usually I just did the daveskater awkward laugh, but it did get annoying.
The grannies used to love ''you'll make it rain'' whereas the wise ass cunty 40 year old men liked to say ''you'll wash the paint off''.
Boring bastards.

Are they boring or are you too socially retarded to interact with people?
Serious question btw.
