    Control underwear. There I was last night trussed up like a chicken having hauled myself into my Spanx, complete with tights and feeling like I had a giant elastic band wrapped around my torso. Even one of the cats gave me a 'what the actual fcuk':confused: look when he came up to see what I was doing while getting ready to go out. He even let out a forlorn meow.

    People who make you feel old. The young taxi driver who drove us to the pub last night asked if we'd been to the disco the night before. My answer was 'I haven't been to a disco here since '92'. That made me feel old, and no, we did not go to a disco last night either. Fecking shocking price of drink, it's been a long time since we went to a pub.

    My TA having to go to my dads best friend and his partners house for dinner to catch up. When I promised to go, it seemed like a good idea but now having to get up, get showered, wash my hair, dry my hair, curl my hair, backcomb my hair, style my hair, do my makeup, try on about 6 different things before I find something that I least resemble an elephant in, seems like too much of an effort. And I'll still look like a pile of ****e so I might as well just go in tracksuits, if I even owned any.
    So tempted to cancel, but that's rude leaving it so late and I literally spent no time with anyone over christmas and I haven't had dinner that wasn't a sandwich since last weekend, so I should go. But the effort. And the indecisiveness. Kantkope

    Go. Make the effort. You will be better for it. Life is better than sandwiches

    Depends on what kind of sandwiches they are.:D

    No. I love food but sandwiches are not even in the top 10


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,646 ✭✭✭✭qo2cj1dsne8y4k


    Soup is the best food ever. Mushroom soup! Then sandwiches! I don't like too much going on in a sandwich so ham sandwich on its own or ham and cheese if it's going to be toasted!

    I presume you eat bread or any baked goods? Drink any form of alcohol? All of them have yeast in them. Yeast is also a fungus. Therefore you also eat/drink fungus.
    Don't get me started on the bacteria products you're probably using. F***ing disgusting.

    The Snapper.
    People who think you're mad if you don't like The Snapper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,821 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    Don't like the Snapper. Thought the acting was absolutely cringeworthy.

    Anyway, trivial annoyance: someone eating your special crisps that you'd been saving all week for when you were feeling better.

    Felt much better this evening after a week of being ill..thought I'd have a nice glass of Merlot and my fancy cripps....but someone's had 'em :(

    Ignorant selfish **** making me drive on icy roads and in thick fog because they can't bear to be out of the pub for 1 night.

    This, Sky music starting at 350, sky sports starting at 400. You'd think that's 50 channels of music. Eh no. It's about 12 channels, all break at the same time, the break lasts forever, and then two good songs will come on at once,

    Control underwear...

    I just love that. Please tell me it's made by Bosch or Audi?? :):):)

    Flesh coloured underwear on show. Nobody needs to see those fleshy shades of bra strap on show!

    When your entire morning goes to shi.te and anything that could go wrong did go wrong. I was so cold last night I had a human hotwater bottle, a real hotwater bottle and I had my electric blanket on, which just made me extra cosy this morning and I couldn't drag myself from my bed.
    Then I was so late I couldn't even wash my hair.
    Missed breakfast.
    Have no makeup on.
    Still missed the train so had to have the OH drive me to another station half an hour away, and it's so frosty.
    Realised this morning I lost my purse and have no cards/cash.

    I had to get his card though, which can take a better beating than my own, so I'm going to river island at lunch to cheer myself up and inject a little positivity into my day.

    Mr Pumpkinseeds was very nearly in the doghouse when he giggled at me when he saw me in it before I got dressed.:D Shapewear/control wear, they can call it what they like, it's still fugly and uncomfortable, but hey, it works.:)

    Women who are what my granny used to refer to as 'mutton dressed as lamb'. There was an ex neighbour of mine in the pub the other night, she's got to be at least 45 and has a few kids. There she was dressed in sequined top, leather pants and thigh high boots, caking on more make up in the ladies on top of the 6 inches of slap she already had on. The effect wasn't so much sexy as musketeer meets 2 dollar hooker. Meeeoow.

    It's just as bad when you see a young wan dressed like her granny.

    When I see my RTE Licence fee going down the tubes...

    Ray the Arsey, (poached back by RTE?) hosting a show for "Celebrities" and their dogs, prime time on Sunday evening, the first trial is based on retrieval from water, and none of the three dogs like water! Fcukin woeful stuff, not only do they insult us with sh1te, but the old chestnut "And now lets have another quick look at gob****e 1 making a tool of themselves again" And commentd like "Oh Rover is after grabbing one of Gavin's balls, snigger"

    D'Arcy doesnt even like dogs.

    I've only been gone couple of weeks and look at you moany buggers! :eek: Well done! :P
    Btw the name sucks but you've probably complained about it enough already.

    I've just came here to show my face (not literally) and to say while I'm not around much I do miss you and hope that you all had a nice Christmas stuffing your faces and clogging them arteries with the almighty unhealthy food ;)

    P.S.
    Yes, I've had few more skirt incidents since the last thread :D

    Ah, sure even Kylie Minogue retired her rear end when she hit 40.:D There comes a point in every womans life when regardless of how shapely she might be she has to accept that some clothes just look ridiculous on her after a certain age or once her clothes size goes into double figures.:(

    I agree, some awful looking things wedging themselves into things they've no business owning. Although you see girls my age dressed like OAPs too. It'd leave u wondering if they even owned a mirror.

    TA - gob****es in restaurants taking photos of their food as soon as it comes out. No exaggeration either. Two clowns at table across from us, both of them arranging their food and snapping a photo before even picking up their napkin. Saps

    Do you speak of the delicious Tom Ford. Id ate him off a stick with vinegar running down his arse.

    Downright rudeness, and nastiness TA'd me today. Myself and my eldest and youngest went into town today. The eldest girl was pushing the youngest in the buggy. We walked from a side lane onto the Main Street, and ever so slightly veered into the path of an oldish couple. The street was by no means busy, and we didn't hit off them. Before we even had a chance to say sorry, the old fella goes "You'd want to get f**king glasses for yourself", big sour head on him and the wife. I'm the quietest person in the world, till someone is unnessecarily rude. "Happy f**king New Year to you too", I roared after him. It never ceases to amaze me how petty people can be. I hope they both get explosive diarrhoea!!

    No this guy that comes into work to have his waxing done. He keeps coming back to me and God, I do be delighted seeing him come into the salon, he's unreal looking. Really tall, Northern accent, muscley, and smooth. Really good dress sense, lovely hair. Stubble. He looks like he fell out of a magazine. And then casually mentions his boyfriend today. Devastated.

    Gaelgores. So many of them are arrogant ignorant gits.
    I was in the breakfast hall in a hotel this morning and encountered a mammy yammering away as gaeilge to little Oisin and Una and Uacta Reoite at the self service area. No issues there. BUT when they were seated and a member of staff came to take tea and coffee orders they continued to address her and each other in Irish. Let's face it. The majority of the population have little more than basic Irish so to use it in this setting was ****ing rude.
