Just sent a very over dramatic text to my closest friends about my job and got no responses back.. it's like they are tired of getting them, very trivially annoying!!

People who work in Gyms and post nonstop about it on FB/Instagram or wherever....using annoying lingo like "fitfam"....instanstly get hidden by me on fb

and in relation to Social media, I've got a friend now whose trying to impress a girl whose a bit of a third wave feminist (gets outraged at trivial things - plays the victim etc), and he's going down that route now on FB, changing his pic to a repeal logo on it, commenting and complaining on every news post or business post on fb complaining/playing the victim...me and my other friends are getting annoyed with it

That Alison Spittle thinks she represents culchies but says her th sound like she worked all her life on the market in Albert Square!

And she's not funny

I was so tired last night that after we finished dinner, instead of scraping the plate scraps into my little kitchen compost bin and putting them in the dishwasher, I picked both plates up and threw one in the bin for some reason, and even as I realized what I did, I threw the other one in on top of it. The first one was smashed and the second one chipped and both were part of a dinner service I only bought a month or so ago. I don't think I can buy single replacements, but fingers crossed.

I'm so annoyed at my dopey self.

Just saw netflix are remaking Lost in Space. Looking forward to seeing it. However I do wonder how they get away with calling it a netflix original. It's not original, it's a remake.

This reminds me of another trivial Netflix-related issue.

Designated Survivor has the most shamelessly obvious product placement I've ever seen. I'd been enjoying it enough to keep watching it until one scene involving a major brand (I won't spoil anything) that was just so blatantly an advertisment inside the show that I stopped watching in protest.

I was reminded of this the other night when Die Hard was on and Black and Decker made their presence felt.

TA at ostentatious product placement in shows.

When you are off work a couple days and when you return there are just so many emails. Made worse by people who know you are on leave sending emails with the stupidest questions you can possibly imagine. I am amazed some people can put on matching shoes in the morning.

Sweet potato replacing proper spuds everywhere!

First world problem I know, but I can't stand the things and what did my sister have this evening? Spicy chicken (yum yum) with horrible horrible sweet potato mash and veg.

WHY IS AMAZON MAKING A LORD OF THE RINGS SERIES? WHY. WHY. WHY. WHYYYYYYYYYYYY. WHY.

Also TA, when you reach out to pick up your toothbrush and in doing so, you knock over someone else's toothbrush and in trying to stop that from falling, you knock down literally everything else on the sink and cause an almighty amount of noise for 6:48am.

I contemplated tapping on the brakes but must remember fog lights.. They would be a slightly less passive aggressive option.. (was also pre-coffee so brain wasn't up to speed yet lol)

Taking out the bread board, getting distracted and someone else hi-jacks the bread board.
When you get back to it it's full of crumbs and there is a mystery moist spot.

The crumbs I can handle, but what the f*ck is that wet bit that will contaminate my sandwich?


Also, when someone uses your knife and you are not sure what it's been used for so you have to get a clean one.

Ctrl +A and mark as read.

I include it in my out of office for internal mails.

I will be out of office between X and Y. If you need something contact my colleagues A & B. If you need me specifically please contact me after my return as I will have a lot of correspondence to catch up on and may miss your mail .

I then feel safe marking all mails as read.
I took a month long sabbatical in the last place I worked. There was close to 10 thousand mails when you included system generated ones. There was no way I was reading all that crap.

And lets face it. Every single one of your co workers will understand because we all get too much email

Isn't it so annoying. And yep, you love them so much you can only be annoyed when actually cleaning up. Said dog is now snoring like a pig on the cleaned couch while my stomach is still in knots. Spoiled little shyte.

One of my stupid cats stays in most of the time. When she goes out roaming, generally that night she will puke when she comes in. She must be drinking some scummy water somewhere. She's obsessed with water but doesn't drink the water we leave out for her.
Stupid cat.

Dial Hard

One person in the office decided it was stuffy (it wasn't) and now we're all being blasted out of it with sub-Arctic air conditioning set to hurricane-force fan levels :mad:

Also, people who can't stop stuffing their faces and then whinge about their weight.

Also, people who practically stop dead to go over ramps which can easily be navigated by just easing off the accelerator slightly.

Also, people who use their rear fogs in continuous traffic. You're six feet in front of me, dude, I can see you.

Also, people who leave their teabags in the sink. I will cut you if I catch you at it.

Also, whoever clearly drank directly out of the water cooler spout in work and left a big, pink lipstick mark around it. WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU??????????

Aaaaaaaand breathe...

This in my office. I never eat any of the junk lying around the office and I'm quite thin so people think it's ok to say, "Oh you never eat anyway".....yeah I survive on fresh air ya clown, just cos I don't have my face stuck into whatever rubbish is on the go today doesn't mean I don't eat.

And imagine the uproar if I told someone that they are always eating.....there would be war especially if that person was in any way overweight

People who do any of the following when executing a turn:

Come to a complete stop beforehand.
Indicate after they have slowed and began the turn.
Go at a snails pace so that if there is a light sequence, everyone behind misses it.

OldNotWIse

People who open windows on the bus. Newsflash - if you're sitting directly beside the window, then it wont affect you being open, but it does create a draught for people sitting down from you.

People who won't get the f*ck out of the way when you're getting on or off the luas.

Anyone who makes a bacon joke when they find out you're veggie, or worse says something like, "oh I could never do that I would miss blah to much" - I'm not asking you to.

"Vegetarians" who eat fish - thereby creating immense confusion for non-veggies who with the best will in the world, will prepare a fish dish for actual veggies, thinking it's appropriate.

Faux concern over my calcium and protein intake from people who otherwise do not care about me.

Lift small talk. People who make it annoy me, but people who don't also annoy me because then I feel compelled to do so.

Your real TA is that when he opens the blinds he's not standing there in the nip with his '3 card trick' flopping around :P

The key is to rinse it really, really well first. Toast it in a little butter (I put minced chillies and garlic in with it) then, then add your stock (I use chicken and usually throw in the juice of a lime too) and - this is key - don't stir it at all while it cooks. Just put a lid on it, turn the heat right down to a bare simmer and just let it do its thing til it's absorbed all the liquid. Then you can fluff it with a fork.

On topic TA: People (not directed at you!) who cook their quinoa in plain old water and then complain that it's tasteless.

Oops. I did just cook it in water. Lol. Will try the chicken stock and toasting it first. I didn't touch it at all, left it for 20 mintues and it still came out hard so I dunno what the story is with it. Bleh.

TA: have had a headache for about 2 weeks now. Just cannot shake it. Going to the optician tomorrow to see if I need glasses (again). Ugh.

Despite the fact I like the taste of quinoa I am freaked out at how it looks and actually shudder if attempting to eat it. It reminds me of tiny worms you’d find in a sheeps poo

Iceland sells it precooked and in smaller portions, from their freezer section. Jamie Oliver has a reasonable receipy on 15 mins meals for it as well.

TA'd at the weather today. Cold, overcast and some rain. Ffs its mid April

Lorelli!

My parents have been talking about moving up by me which i would love. They keep getting my hopes up and then changing their mind because even though theyd like to, it's a lot of hassle.

It's like when you're a kid and you ask them if you can go somewhere and they say they'll think about it but you know they have no intention of letting you go and it's not gonna happen!
