    Huh? Is this even English? (No offence meant Paddy Cow)
    TA at the American Chopper memes in YLYL


    I'm trivially annoyed at some of the posts in You Laugh You Lose (a thread where people post funny pictures). The posts are from a show called American Chopper that was kinda popular about ten years ago. They posts are not funny and I wish they would go away ;)

    I'm annoyed because no matter how much I run lately, I'm making hardly any progress in fitness. In my time out of running I have started to eat way healthier, stopped smoking, mostly quit fizzy drinks and have been taking on more water daily.
    I'm hoping it's just still my body trying to re-adapt.

    People can be cúnts at times, they often think just cos they are happy then everyone should be. And when you need to talk nobody is available or they don't want to listen. It annoys the hell out of me.

    Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone!

    A gobsheen I'll forget all about very soon! Someone I thought was a friend - stupidly!

    That's frustrating. Feel a bit the same with the running if it's any consolation :) Maybe someday it'll all just start to show a bit of progress?! :o

    They're not worthy of your friendship if they treat you like that and you're better of without people like that in your life.

    It can happen that way, went to lose weight about 8 years ago, the first few months were hard work for not much reward but after a while the weight loss accelerated at a much quicker rate!

    Stick at the exercise, think it's important in life to try stay as fit as possible (especially as you get as old as me)

    oh yeah, I'm not giving up.
    But I have seen progress, there were some areas where I couldn't get toned for the life of me, now they are evening out. I think that's alot down to diet and retention from the fizzy drinks.

    I'll be a fit adonis in a few months :)

    On the flip side there are a lot of people always complaining and just have to share all their feelings all the time and assume that everyone is as sensitive and emotional as they are, and also assuming that you should be engrossed in their nonsense.

    They don’t seem to grasp that they’re wasting half your day on the latest ‘drama’ that’ll eventually amount to nothing.

    Wasn't complaining to anyone. Just sharing some information and being myself. Maybe a 5-10 minute conversation. Certainly wasn't asking anyone to "waste half their day on latest drama"...

    I'm looking at my Facebook newsfeed , and every day I'm TA at overzealous animal rescuers who pick up dogs and offer them for adoption practically the same day. I wonder how many people are sad at "losing" their dog when it was in fact rehomed elsewhere without their knowledge. I agree dogs shouldn't be left to roam, but for older gents or ladies that's ownership as they've always known it, and they might miss their old companion and have no social media or even few friends and relatives to inform them.
    There's another gentle older dog found last night advertised this morning already "on the market" so to speak and people "bidding" for it.

    Every single time I have that dream it's history. My history teacher was, shall we politely say, not a pleasant woman. So I'm sure that has something to do with it.

    TA at people who don't have their dogs chipped in order to prevent exactly this scenario.

    True, but chipping is not something an older folk may be aware about, and although it is cheap enough, it may be too costly for a meager pension, and same folks.may not be aware of promotions etc.
    It would be great if all pups were chipped as standard.

    I'm guessing this won't be popular, but I genuinely feel that if someone can't afford €35 to chip their dog, they really can't afford to own a dog full-stop. Pet ownership is a privilege and a major responsibility, not a right. I don't doubt that some of these people genuinely love their animals, but unfortunately love isn't enough.

    Anyway, today's TA: tights. I never wear skirts or dresses in winter for this very reason, but all my work trousers were in the wash. Horrid, horrid things altogether.

    IT is soooo difficult finding good tights that aren't slipping and you don't feel 100% uncomfortable in. And they usually come with some surreal price tag :mad:

    I have that dream regularly! Basically I dream that I decide to go back to repeat the Leaving Cert around April time and have two months until the English exam and I'm running around the classroom begging people for poetry notes because I've missed the entire year!

    Second day in a row colleague is talking to me during my lunch. I'm very obviously trying to ignore her with my mouth full of sandwich but she is just not getting it. I really don't want to have to go eat by myself in the canteen. Can't I just be left in peace for 30 ****ing minutes?

    And just to add to this. Because it is now "summer" nearly all the tights have been removed from shop floors. Any day now the "winter coats" will be back in. At least they'd be useful I suppose :rolleyes:

    I wasn’t being specific. I know it was originally your post, and obviously every situation is different.

    Some of the replies to you were very Facebook-esque, which triggered me. :)

    Took half day annual leave on Tuesday as a tradesman was to come to house to do a job for me. Also I have items for sale on a certain website and two people had agreed to buy items and collect them on Tuesday. None of the three showed up nor did they answer my texts or answer their phones when I called them. So so annoying. What is wrong with people that they can't let somebody know if they can't make it or have changed their minds. My holidays from work are so precious as I don't have so many. I'm this day and age of mobile phones and instant communication techniques have basic manners and consideration for others gone out the window.

    I drove for 20 minutes today squinting in the glare because I couldn't find my sunglasses in the dashboard where they usually are.
    Got to my destination and my passenger got out.
    She hadn't realised that she had been sitting on them for the journey despite her looking around the footwell for me when we set off!

    It would be great if all pups were chipped as standard.
    It came into law that as of 1st June 2015, all puppies have to be microchipped. You cannot sell/pass on a pup that hasn't been chipped. As of 31st March 2016, all other dogs have to be chipped. Failure to comply can lead to a €5,000 fine.

    Having a hard time with labeling today, I see ppl rolling their eyes when I cant recall the name of a particular object at the time.

    My sis parked outside her parents old house, causing two cars to break hard and miss rear ending each other by less that a cm, its a residential area, at any time a child, ball, pet or car can appear from a mature hedge or an invidiable drive way, so why drive in this manner and get upset because exactly why they are supposed to drive carefully happens.

    Had a lovely biscuit cake when I was out having coffee with said sis, she had such trouble sending a text response, so sad to see a vibrant and otherwise healthy woman lose ground like this (typing since the mid 60's). TA, not so trival, progressing early dementia.

    The severe overuse if the term "My thoughts and prayers are with..."

    Let's break that down literally.
    When X died or had a bad illness did you actually take 2 minutes of your time to bless yourself and say a prayer for them?
    Did you spend any more thought time of them apart from when you uttered/typed that BS?

    I hope the farmers comply, that'll take a while though imo.
    My TA was that some well meaning people are sometimes too quick in picking up (and putting up for adoption) dogs that are potentially somebody's pet, and I often get uneasy when I see lots of people posting "I'll take him" the morning after.
    Someone suggested the dogs should be chipped to avoid such situations, which is true, however, there are still older people who may have got the pup off their relative in the country, who have an un-chipped dog, don't know about or don't know how cheap chipping is, still let the dog wander by itself.

    It's not right and thankfully things are changing, but in the meantime, the person being praised online has possibly plucked someone's only best friend from the green across their house.

    Anyway, I won't go on about it anymore as the discussion side is OT here.





    I have found another TA to mention though (less controversial!), and that's how I often seem to click the "love" emoji by accident when trying to like something on Facebook. And other fat fingers accidents on my Kindle. All. The. Time.
