Loungers Who Lunch - The Off Topic Thread (All Chat Goes Here!)

TeletextPear

Just came downstairs to an 'attempted delivery' note in the letterbox. I was upstairs with all the windows open, there's no way those fuckers knocked! Grrr

Stench Blossoms

I hate post men who do that!

I just get everything delivered to work. A few weeks ago though DPD told me that my work was closed when they tried to deliver it. I work a few buildings down from DPD in a company that's open 24hrs. I asked the girl to think about what she was saying and she had the package delivered to me in the next hour or so.

Lazy lazy people

Teletext - nothing more annoying!!

Poor Java, really thought I'd be logging in to hear your news - just refuse to leave tomorrow!!

Got blood test results - B12 is very low, so have to get injections... For somebody who is not good with needles this is not good news! I just hope I feel a difference with them quickly - having a particularly bad day today, so tired and sleepy in work :-(

My boyfriend is watching some rubbishy documentary about ghosts in an old sanatorium. It is such rubbish! Funny how the photos of "ghosts" are always grainy, out of focus and blurry! Don't you think if you were going off to take photos of ghosts you'd make sure your gear was the best of the best?

Meh, I'm fairly recognisable from here so I just don't post anything incriminating :cool:

Looking at deals for mini-breaks away, we probably won't get to go abroad 'til the honeymoon so just gonna have a short break in Ireland instead. I definitely feel like I need some time off soon, the last time was for my exams which isn't exactly 'time off'!

Das that sucks, silly company shouldn't have got everyone's hopes up!

Dol, check out limepark.com where we are going on holidays next week. Really cute 1 bed cottages beside the sea in antrim. £320 for a week compared to the rip offs we pay in the republic!

Dolbert

Ooh those look gorgeous! Thanks

Not on tv, online. About a place called Waverly Hills Sanatorium. You'll find it anywhere i'd say

Welcome to my life :rolleyes: I receive packages to my house a couple times a week and without fail I have to make some stop offs to the post office! It was sooo much easier when my father was a postman, never had to worry about sending letters etc. or getting them! He retired too soon

I have on scented nail polish and can't stop smelling my nails, If I was in public I'd look a bit creepy :P

Also watching the episode of Friends where Monica is sick and is trying to prove she isn't. It's just a legendary programme

Oh javagal that really sucks, getting your hopes up and then having them dashed... I hope all goes well tomorrow. Anyway, according to the poem, Thursday’s child has far to go but Friday’s child is loving and giving... So Friday is better than Thursday for births (highly scientific reasoning there )

Ahhhh where in Africa are you going? I hope you have a fantastic time! Do get some sleep on the plane, I’m the worst person for spending most of the flight watching the in-flight films and then feeling like absolute death when I finally arrive because I’ve had arse all sleep

Can't wait to see my bf tomorrow. It's been ten days this time. Don't know how people do the whole LDR thing in different countries. My fella's only in Longford and I'm moaning about not seeing him in over a week. It's tough. Fair play to those who make it work from different countries, I'd be in bits. Ye must be an awful lot stronger than I am.

Nobody intends to end up in a super long-distance relationship, it just works out that way when you don’t want to break up but you’re geographically separated for whatever reason. It seems to be getting longer and longer between each time I see my boyfriend, and it SUCKS, but he is lovely. November isn’t too far away... Right?

I have different colours on different nails Cherry (red), Banana (yellow), Lime (green), Orange (orange), Strawberry (pink) and Fruit punch (blue). When applying, it smells like regular nail polish but after it dries then it smells amazing I'll probably stick a few pictures up in the nail polish forum in a while

Like the crackle and magnet trends scented nail polish was a trend for a while and lots of companies came out with their own version. I've about 10 bottles of scented nail polishes I love it!

I have some of the crackle ones, haven't got a magnet one yet but was tempted to try it. Not so keen on the idea of yellow nail polish that smells like bananas though, it sounds like that horrible banana medicine you'd get when you were a kid!

my internet has been down since yesterday but on the plus side my neighbours internet reaches down to my house yay internet til they move the modem :P

The banana one is actually minimul and smells more like Hubba Bubba Bubblegum Fruit Punch smells like blue freeze pops

Have to decide what dinner is going to be tonight, not really hungry now but I know I'll have to put it on soon.

No I know nobody ever intends things to go that way, I was actually complimenting those of you that have had to make that decision.

Still messing around with usernames... :rolleyes:

I've updated my sig and my privacy settings though..

Does anyone know if you have to use Paypal to pay for a month's subscription? I don't want to set up a PayPal account just for that...
It's telling me to click the payment method I prefer, but it's only giving me PP as an option.

Me too. I could be easily recognised.

I'm really not being smart here, but if you don't want to be recognised why do you post pictures of yourself? I really, really don't get that.

* not getting at you specifically Jane, there's lots of people who post in pi and elsewhere about stuff they say they dont want friends/family to know, but they are so identifiable by a search thru past posts which shows pics.

Yeah my urge to sometimes post a photo in KYL is always eradicated by trying to maintain a sliver of anonymity, at least I'm not recognised in the street! I've posted in it twice but one in fancy dress and one from veeeery far away, once a photo is up that's it, there's no more doubt with anyone you might know IRL.

So many username changes!


mortified by the amount of weight i've put on recently. time to buck things up

I'm going to request that all those be deleted. Before I didn't mind, it's just recently I've gotten paranoid tbh.

daenerysstormborn3

Don't think you'd have to request it Jane, I'd say if you search through the thread yourself you'd find your own posts and could delete them yourself. Photos I post up here are always photobucket (I've only posted 2 in KYL) so if down the line I wanted to delete the photos, I just delete the photobucket photo and they're gone.

I was told earlier that after 48 hours posts can't be edited.. Mine are all attachments anyway though, didn't use photobucket..

daenerysstormborn3

Ah well, shouldn't be a big deal to get them deleted anyway.

Also, I've just gone back to try to edit/delete older posts of mine and not had a problem. Edit: just went back a bit further and I can't edit/delete.
