I managed to knock over a serving jar of sauce all over the floor in a restaurant just now. Glass and sauce everywhere. I left a big tip to apologise for my clumsy oafish ways. I shouldn't be allowed outside. I am a disaster.

I have a publication deadline this week so of course I spent the day doing every Harry Potter quiz I could find on Sporcle.

Don't be daft, we all have clumsy days. Tell them it's PMT. I blame everything on the menopause, whether it's true or not.

My TAA is people leaving glass jars in stupid locations knowing they are going to break.

How do people get off-the-menu smilies into boards. I'm TA'd that I can't work it out (insert smilie wearing deerstalker cap and smoking a pipe).

I've a battery powered door bell which chimes continuously when the batteries go low. You'd think it would beep or something, would drive you mad. (Like the smoke alarms that only beep in the middle of the night!)

Tummy bug doing the rounds, and today it's my turn. Such fun.

Just ran around in the rain after 3 stray dogs who were loose on the main road. 3 big eejits who were not a bit road smart. They disappeared and I've no idea where they're gone nor who owns them (they don't belong to any of the neighbours). Some guy driving a car pulled in just to shout at me "you need to take better fucking care of your dogs" and drove off before I could shout back at him.

My take on the riddle is as follows.
First line - each symbol equates to the number 15, being a square (4) inside a pentagon (5) inside a hexagon (6). So 4+5+6 = 15.  15+15+15=45
Second line - 4 bananas, 4 bananas and the same set of symbols as the first line, i.e. 15. So 4+4+15 = 23.
Third line - 4 bananas, 3 o'clock, 3 o'clock.  So 4+3+3=10.
Last line - 2 o'clock, three bananas, three bananas, and two of the three shapes (square is missing) equivalent to 11. So 2+3+3x11.  Assuming that the format is (2+3+3)x11, I would answer 88.

TA at whoever is going to say I'm wrong.  You're not allowed to do that without saying why!

The last line should be 2+3+(3x11)=38

Multiplication first, then add the rest.

Bic biros, they break too easily when you chew them.
People who feel it's their business to tell you not to bite your nails.
People who just stop in the middle of the walkway in shops.
People who drive any which way in carparks despite one way systems clearly being in place.
Fruit that is gone off before you get to eat it.
Cereal dust.
Tupperware lids just vanishing.
Also, people telling me the first 72 hours of nicoteine withdrawal are the worst.... This last may be the reason for the rest!!

TBH, it's a bit like the nail biting thing, especially if you have to shake a nail-biter's hand at some point. The biro chewing is only good in the sense that nobody would steal your pens ever.

I don't chew my biro but I do care if I pick up a chewed biro off a shared workspace. If you're chewing your biro, it definitely needs to be just your biro.

We had to buy a new car a month ago. The missus text me to say it broke down on the motorway taking her mother to the airport. The break down guy said it's fecked and we bought it at an auction so we have no warranty. She's been waiting over an hour for the tow truck to show up and she's no coat. I could just cry. This has not been my weekend.

TA'd at Animal Crossing: New Leaf's IMDb rating.

I know that I have not played any Animal Crossing game, but New Leaf is a highly-regarded title in the series.
Moreover, the positive IMDb reviews are voted unhelpful, whilst the negative reviews get all the undeserved credit.

At least most users are properly giving it credit on Metacritic, besides the typical sack of 0/10 bull****.
