    ITS getting ridiculous ,every 2 weeks ,someone calls around after 6pm,
    do you want to change over broadband,esb,gas etc
    i presume they are paid on a comission,
    I HAVE to spend 3minutes telling them ,i won,t switch over.
    Could i get a sign, i,m happy with all my providers,i ,ll switch when hell freezes over,OK.

    if you ever shared a house,
    There,s always one stupid,lazy flatmate who never does any cleaning ,
    and never takes your milk ,coffee etc
    or cooks a large meal,
    and FORGETS , to clean the plates ,frying pan,spoons etc
    OR trys to have his girlfriend over or 3 nights a week.

    Today:

    I had often heard that a certain country bans particular websites. Seeing is believing. The country I'm currently in refuses to allow me to use either Google Maps or Google Streetview, both of which would be incredibly useful for me because I know places and areas but not names and Streetview in particular would allow me to find out exactly what I need. It also refuses to allow me use Youtube, even to watch a simple documentary on how to do things like put a homepage button on Google Chrome for this IPad (that button was added no bother on the laptop in Ireland). Ireland's not so bad!

    Apple Safari sucks big time, too, especially not being able to use its URL bar as a search engine a la Chrome.

    What's wrong with having the girlfriend over 3 nights a week?

    The loud sex they have drowns out the sound of him sobbing while masturbating alone in the dark corner of his bedroom. He can't be having that

    I don't know how technically minded you are, but China would be one of those countries where the Government block websites on a whim. You can get around this if using proxies, or, if you have access to a VPN for your company e-mail, you could use that method.

    He described my ex in that entire paragraph. I'm just wondering if his housemates were annoyed that I was there so much.

    We all get on well, drink together, stay up late playing games...now I'm paranoid!

    And you never even had the common courtesy to take his milk or coffee? He's very upset about that btw, the poor lad is inconsolable.

    What a scummy way to treat someone, you should feel paranoid!

    I took his milk and coffee numerous times. I'm willing to bet my ex never replaced it.

    Sabotaged me :(

    I woke up at 5am this morning to the sound of birds chirping. They continued to chirp their chirp all through the morning. I now want to kill myself I'm that tired. Birds, what are you doing? Birds, STOP! I get really irrationally angry, especially when it's hot and sweaty and I have to close the window to blank out their f*cking chirps.

    Clag and pictionary, not that exciting :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,375 ✭✭✭✭kunst nugget

    I had not heard of clag so I looked it up and the urban dictionary tells me:
    clag
    when arse hair gets matted together with sh¡t when you don't wipe your bottom properly.
    i had to soak the clag in the bath before i could pull it off
    (it was still painful though)

    I'm traumatised thinking how this fits into games activity…

    Or when two of the hairs get knotted together at the end :eek:

    You see it in threads the odd time, how some people refer to the collective population of After Hours - AHers.

    I actually say it in my head, After Hoursers, hurts my brain

    Easy. You use the clag to create a Pictionary clue.

    Similar to the actual meaning.

    Whether you're leaving soon or not - you shouldn't be putting up with that!

    Lock your room, keep all your stuff in there. Including your toilet roll. She wants broadband advice? Say no. Wants a go on your computer? Say no.

    I lock my room now. Also working late is great too. I'll use the extra time worked to get a day off
    Anything my new housemate does. I wouldnt have minded these things at the start or now and again but it has been weeks and they are constant.

    Takes my toilet roll from my en suite (goes through about a roll a week) so today I sat down to do my business and when finished I look over to see I cant wipe my ass.

    what did you do??

    I waddle out of the toilet with my trousers around my ankle until I found a piece of kitchen roll I had from when I had maple syrup in the room for pancakes. Otherwise I would of been ******

    I hate people who chew with their mouths open. Especially when they're walking down the street doing it, and you see a gaping mouth full of masticated food coming at you. I mean for Christ's sake, how can these people make it past childhood without learning to eat properly, it's disgusting?
