Yeah I kept staring at it and noticed they mention having a tv at least 4 times, definitely padding it a bit.

TA'd that I got stopped 3 times by people who clearly weren't homeless asking for change, I wouldn't mind so much but they came up to me and didn't believe me when I said I had no change (could just about afford the bus myself) Then I found out a relative died and I'm paranoid 3 people in one day asking for money(and weird dreams last night), means bad things are going to happen

But how will they get their train fare to Wexford? :P

I'm going to drink a bottle of prosseco tonight just to give Monday the two fingered salute.

My eyes are bigger than my tummy. Ate way too much at lunch there....and now just want to go to bed rather than do anything resembling work.

A friend of mine got really sh1tty with me a while ago, accusing me of "reneging" all the time and never being around to meet up. In fairness to him, I don't have a bundle of time, but in fairness to me, I work full time, I study and I run a small animal shelter from my own home. Plus I have a ball and chain called a partner. All my friend has is work. That's it. He goes to work, he comes home. He doesn't have to do housework because they have a cleaner. He doesn't have pets. he is not in college. He is single. Fine, to each their own, but he seems to think I should have as much free time as him.

I decided to make more of an effort so the weekend of the All Ireland final I invited him out to watch the match. He said no problem (assuming we would drink in town). When I suggested my local, he couldn't make it (I know he jut wasn't bothered because he didn't want to travel). Weekend after, I invite him out with a group. He's "too tired" to go (what he means is, he doesn't want to mix with the group, wants me just to himself).

Really annoying.

From some naive fool that actually thinks they're going somewhere also whats with them always asking if you have spare change, who has extra money (except Donald Trump), especially at the bus stop I obviously can't afford my own car so I can hardly afford to throw money at drug addicts and scammers TA'd because it happened again today, maybe because my OH hasn't trimed his beard or dressed fancy that I already support a homeless man

I had an interview earlier and after the interview, hopped into my car and looked down. It's only then I noticed I forgot to change my shoes!:( The black pair are useless for driving. I was in such a rush (I was almost late), I wasn't even thinking of shoes. I'm hoping he didn't notice.

People who run with buggys, are they trying to kill someone. And then give a dirty look when someone doesn't get out of there way.

If you want to go for your afternoon run with child do it somewhere more quiet, not a busy footpath

If I'm reading that right, they go jogging or running or whatever, and they have the buggy in front of them?

What do they even look like? :pac:


I really hope it doesn't catch on, but given the trends lately for portmanteau'd exercises such as pilloxing and that other stationary cycling fad (that was acceptable in the 80's), I can see this one already being called -

'prambulating', or 'bogging'

It's been around for a few years, usually favoured by mummies in lycra who think the pram is a battering ram for pedestrians:rolleyes:

The posts in this thread are all muddled up. I'm seeing some from today, then yesterday, todays and then loads of them repeated.

Me and my friend lost our snap streak on snapchat. Made it to 93 days but didn't get to 100.

I have musical rehearsals later and I really couldn't be bothered going out in that weather.

I'm just having a day full of trivial annoyances.

I have had visitors staying with me since Thursday night. I like them a lot and we get on well but I am reaching the point where I just want to sit on the couch in my pjs, read boards and not have to wait on and entertain anyone!!

Totally agree, my neighbours had visitors or something and from 2am till after 3.30am this morning all around the house, doors closing up and down the steps, yapping, front door opening closing interior doors going, then visitors left they cleaned up, sounded like the brush getting banged off things, I get up at 4.30am, well I took my doors off the hinges when I got up hoping I woke them the fu*k up, been knackered all day :mad:

Brother comes home, brother proceeds to eat three eggs and hardboil three eggs i.e the six eggs that I bought earlier. I wouldn't mind too much but it's a fairly regular occurrence just swap eggs with milk, bread, cheese, etc. I'm the only one buying food in the house and I don't even have a job whereas he does.

Ugh that's annoying!! My problem today was people constantly coming in and out of the PC suite in college and refusing to simply CLOSE the door behind them, instead they just walk away and let it slam. And it would be so loud! It's especially inconsiderate given the fact that the majority of people in that room were trying to study. Grrr people sometimes!!

Did anyone else hear that absolute rubbish on the radio this morning? Vanessa and dracula. Oh god it was painful to listen to and I'm cringing just thinking about it now.

My eczema has come up as well. Usually it flares up during the summer on my hands and arms. But it's come out on my feet and random patches on my legs. It's agonising! Yuck!

I'm on the Betnovate vibes too. I usually get a flare up when the weather changes. My poor fingers!

Halloween.

Hated it as a kid and still hate it now. Never got why other kids were so fascinated with it.

I'm regretting having had porridge for breakfast this morning, it just makes me feel pure sluggish, and then I get all cranky and I'm not good to be around people with a head like a bulldog on me trying to get my concentration together

Porridge, Weetabix, anything heavy like that just doesn't agree with me at all...

I find breakfast in general has that effect on me. Years of being forced to eat breakfast when I wasn't hungry because "it's the most important meal of the day" I prefer to listen to my own body and eat when I am actually hungry.

I'm sooooooo bored, fidgety.

TA that I have not had a bite to eat yet. I have an apple on my desk, but hard to get motivated to eat it.

I want Sausage rolls damn it.

Wait for the afternoon energy burst though.

I made porridge for the young lad this morning and toast for myself.
I was well annoyed that I didn't make myself porridge as well as it looked great. He wouldn't trade either.

I don't hate Hallowe'en (and like the history behind it) but as a child, I was the freak who refused to get dressed up (like a freak). I also wouldn't wear shamrock on St Patrick's Day.

People who run halfway across the world to save it, instead of starting at home. (And then put pious photos of themselves saving said world on their social networking profiles).

But but but...they saved the world like!

People who "fundraise" by jumping out of planes and climbing far off mountains in strange lands, where the cost of the fundraising activity must first come out of the funds raised, before the charity benefits. For what? So you can have fun while getting an altruistic high? Why not just not climb the mountain or jump into the sky, and give all the money to charity?

It's the absolute worst

- Most of the jobs are now advertised by recruiting agencies, who barely ever mention the client.
- 95% of them don't even acknowledge your application
- A very high percentage of jobs are filled through referrals more than anything else

I often thought that sometimes there is no 'job' , but that rec agencies have to interview X number of people per week and that's why the have these up to reach their quotas - not saying its true , just my opinion
