    Only good thing I can take from it is at least we have the power to stop the pain and free them. It's a sh*t decision but also a privilege to help a friend. Anyway sorry for dragging down the TA thread. :(

    Sorry Antares :(

    Edit, and as he has always given us a laugh in life so he did in death too. As I ran out the door in a panic after speaking to our vet, I just told OH I'd to go and make a decision on what to do. With all that happened I didn't actually tell him that the cat had passed, or that we had helped him too. So when I arrived home and put him back in his bed he looked really peaceful but next thing OH started calling him and I just said, "what are you at?" And he said "oh I thought he'd fancy some ham". The poor guy didn't realise. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry tbh.

    Ah, I'm really sorry. Take solace in your growing family and vent here away as well. Sending you love.

    Flicked over to This Morning as there was feck all else on the telly and waiting to get more channels installed.

    There was a cooking segment where the professional chef was baking some lovely looking buns. He was trying to talk through a few key steps, but Holly and Philip kept interrupting him every few seconds with total waffle.

    At one stage they were almost conducting their own discussion while he was attempting to instruct to the camera, and you could tell he was getting a bit pissed off at their antics.

    I don't ever watch the show, and it makes me wonder whether they carry on like that with guests the whole time. If so, they are incredibly rude and un-professional.

    I've read since that this might have been an Ant and Dec thing for their show, I don't watch that either. They instruct people via an earpiece to say silly stuff.

    If so, it's still very unprofessional, and not at all funny, imo, in this situation.

    The clip I saw was from a while back, and that was definitely Schofield being downright rude. No instructions necessary. :rolleyes:

    Today's TA... How the [swearword] hell do I [swearword] set [swearword] Amazon Music to keep [swearword] playing [swearword] music after I click play on a track on the [swearword] website???

    Also Amazon Music has the worst search function I've used since 1998.

    It is what it's.

    TA at people on Twitter who tweet something, get a lot of likes and comments, and then write "wow this blew up quickly!" before swelling their head up even more by saying "look at how great i am! I raise funds!"

    Look, doing charity is a nice thing, but do not announce that you do it. It shows you don't give a shít and just do it for the attention.

    I just reminded myself of another TA from about 5 or 6 years ago - the ice bucket challenge: people who never donated but done it to "fit in" with the fad anyway.

    Catholic priests complaining they can't get married; they should quit, get married and then convert to the Eastern Catholic Church.

    Prepack sandwiches which might as well have sliced pieces of sliotar in them as tomatoes for the texture and taste they represent.

    It is what it's.

    The non stop news story about Ireland being a racist hellhole.

    Show me this perfect non racist country we should benchmark ourselves against.

    6 (very short!) videos will take nearly 3 hours to upload to Google Drive :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,952 ✭✭✭mikemac2


    Pat Kenny show podcasts

    However they record these there is only audio in one of my earphones. It’s faint and distant and a bit amateurish tbh.

    Every other podcast in the world can get this right. I am sure there sound engineers in Newstalk :/

    Those awful "Scribbles" pre packed sandwiches with the fancy hipster packaging and containing the bare minimum filling.

    TA'd at being too tired too cook this eve after another hectic Tuesday in work. I would love to abolish Tuesdays from the week. Also TA'd at not being able to shop in Penneys for new jocks and socks. My current undies either keep slipping halfways down my arse or keep disappearing up my crack thanks to the worn elastic. I don't fancy paying a fortune for pricey Calvin Klein undies online.

    Unfamiliar with the brand, so looked them up..

    Sales and marketing manager for Around Noon, Gareth Chambers, describes the brand as “fine food with attitude.” Speaking to ShelfLife he said: “We are a fun and progressive company and we wanted to reflect that with our packaging so the branding is conversational and quirky. The products are handmade and the fillings are high quality. Scribbles is a brand that we feel will inject a bit of fun into lunch-time with great packaging and an energetic social media campaign.”

    Such utter bollocks.

    I don't know any good reason why you should eat prepackaged sarnies regularly unless in extremis like army rations.

    Racisim is a form of prejudice and discrimination based on a persons race or ethnicity ...

    Being critical regarding people arriving here for economic reasons and using and abusing the asylum system for to further their own successes in life... at the expense of the irish taxpayer isnt racist...

    We are financing money away from hospitals, rehabilitive health treatments for our citizens and taxpayers to provide a better quality of life to people from other locations....

    Disagreeing with that isnt racist... its common sense.. ...

    If after a serious car accident a tax payer and irish citizen needs to learn to walk again but their funding for a spell in the NRH is denied.... 'no funds available'... yet there IS funds available to clothe, house, feed, fund thousands of arrivals from thousands of kilometeres away...?

    Hmmm id rather we focused on that kind of injustice as opposed to anything else..

    Utter bollocks is right! I can imagine their production kitchen staffed by minimum wage foreign agency workers with a fat, barely literate Lunchlady Doris lookalike supervisor berating the workers if they dare to add more than the allotted filling portion to each sandwich. It's basically strictly portion controlled mass produced crap with fancy packaging and marketing.

    Any of those videos with talking lips and eyes superimposed on objects. Ugh, it wasn't amusing the first time.

    It is what it's.

    “fine food with attitude.”

    Kinda groovy, laid back mood...

    I had a manager once who single handedly landed one of his subs in therapy who then decided he was doing a cycle to Galway in aid of AWARE. Absolute tool of a man child.
