    I don't know if it's warm or cold today. I'm like that peely peely guy that hasn't a clue what's going on.

    Off topic but I remember reading the biography of Che Guevara (which is a very interesting read) and soon after the communist revolution in Cuba there were Soviet advisors sent to Cuba to 'assist'. The Cubans were appalled by the lack of hygiene of the advisors with Che (who apparently also had poor hygiene) seeing it as something the locals would have to get used to as the revolution advanced.

    Yeah, I think I've bruised their ego so they're trying to write off my opinion by making me part of a group they look down on.

    The guerilla lifestyle wouldn't lend itself to keeping clean. I'm guessing they were pretty pungent.

    I was behind a woman in a dry cleaners, in a shopping center a couple of years back. When asked for her name and address, she loudly proclaimed
    Mrs Doctor O’Malley
    The Surgery
    North County Dublin Town

    At first I thought she was joking.

    It's not your opinion, it's Vincent Browne's! He used to rant about it every time that someone with a bit of education bothered to appear on his TV3 comedy show!

    (What are the odds that he addressed the surgeon who removed his piles as "doctor"?)

    As an aside, why would I feel the need to look down on someone who I really couldn't give a tuppenny fúck about?

    People who use silly fonts in emails.

    The coffee making machine in the nearest Dunnes Stores to me just now has "out of order" notice. There' s no where else for miles round to buy a cup of coffee.

    fyi in email or anything else. Did I think it was for my dog ? Semi legalistic, passive aggressive crap.

    I'm not allowed have my own opinion on something? You care enough to post and call me a communist, so I take it I've hit a nerve. Do you feel you need a title to make you feel special?

    Dunno why I was randomly thinking of this today, but flyers on cars.

    How is that not littering? Seriously - is it up to me to dispose of the thing that I didn't ask to be put on my car? Once, years back, I went to my car to find a poster (bigger than A4 but smaller than A3) for a modified car show on my windscreen. It made it look like I was advertising the show. The worst part was it'd been raining, the ink on the poster was running, and it was dissolving into thousands of tiny pieces. There was no bin in sight and my had got paper and ink on it from just picking the thing off my windscreen. Wtf was I supposed to do with it?

    Motivational quotes on bathroom mirrors. I did not know this was a thing until this weekend, and now I've seen two in three days.

    I've being using the AIB app for a while now and I can't remember my Registration number to log in on other devices!

    I had the same issue, went into the branch and they pressed a few buttons and I got a text with the registration number. Perhaps you can recover it from their website?

    They earned the title "doctor". Perhaps you should respect that a 5 year medical degree isn't the only way to be a doctor, a 4 year PhD takes a lot more work!

    Nothing wrong with using it on your CV if you worked for it but calling yourself a doctor cause you did some more college is bollox.

    Plenty of dossers make their way through college and scrape by qualifcations.

    Call me old fashioned but if I am having a heart attack and someone shouts out is there a doctor in the house, I want an MD to stand up and not an obnoxious twit who spent a bit longer in college.

    Ha I was only talking about food being **** today, had a delicious mandarin today, the last segment tasted disgusting almost rotten.

    Thanks, I probably will try and do something like that or ring them.
