    whoever tried to made adult a verb!

    "oh I find adulting so hard"

    English seems beyond you, never mind being an adult...

    Maybe empathise a little..I do every day in work with people.Turns out it wasn't just me and had something to do with the shop being new and the new trollies have hugely improved the problem.

    Lying in bed, consumed with a mixture of the Sunday night fear and regret from all the junk food I ate today, finding it difficult to nod off but eventually starting to drift into a peaceful sleep....

    When I realise I forgot to take my pill, which is all the way down two flights of stairs in my handbag. I briefly weighed up the pros and cons of getting pregnant this month before resigning myself to going downstairs to get it.

    Now I can't get back to sleep.

    ta'd with the county council constantly adding unnecessary roundabouts, putting in/taking out traffic lights, changing flow of traffic etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,724 ✭✭✭mixery


    oh, and also ta'd with not being able to get a pint in dublin airport at 5 am.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,873 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    So I went to the ex's party. Got so drunk that I made a holy show of myself and three taxis had to be called because I wouldn't go home. The missus slept in the spare room because she was so annoyed with me. Not even trivially annoyed but just really annoyed with myself :( Have the world's worst hangover as punishment.

    Sounds like me all over :o What happened if you aren't too mortified to tell us :P

I had about a 6 inch gap to go side ways and go past no one would have fitted.

    So I turned to the girl and said I am so sorry and walked on. They send there child to scream at me at the food cart and on the way back up the mother stranded up and box me in the belly haha I had a felling she would have done that so as she was punching I pushed back into her and she went flying back into her seat ....

    Either I'm drunk...or you're drunk..but one of us definitely is because I can't make any sense of that at all.

    I can't remember but the missus has informed me that she wanted to go home and I wanted to stay on, I was having none of it, even though most people had gone home at that stage and my ex was asleep in bed! Apparently I was also falling asleep on the couch. So my OH rang taxis but I wouldn't go. Then she couldn't find me, finally found me having a wee in my ex's ensuite while he was in bed! Ah the mortifying shame of it all, everyone at the party must think I am a massive bitch.

    It's good that you don't get defensive about it anyway.

    It was just a light-hearted comment.

    Didn't fall asleep until after half 4 last night despite the fact I was in bed for 11pm.

    TA'd that I always manage to recharge over the weekend and get lots of rest only to have a crap nights sleep on a Sunday and have the week f*cked up again due to lack of sleep.

    I feel like I'm permenantly exhausted lately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,895 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    This probably shouldn't be in the TA thread but the news of the fees paid to barristers for the Sean Fitzpatrick debacle makes my blood boil. It really does.
    So many suffered during the financial collapse and to think that one of the protagonists (within Ireland) had a sham trial while his buddies cleaned up on free legal aid is just wrong.

    The kid starts speaking and you hear this sap of a kid on the radio, with some ridiculously put on, stuck up, D4 snotbag accent, where do they find these fúcking kids?!?!? Do they search Dublin for the kid with the most annoying and disturbed accent that can possibly be found in Dublin?!?!?!?

    Is this the Currys PC world one? Argh I HATE that ad. I will make a point of NOT shopping there, so great is my hatred. What kind of kids would even have that conversation with an adult? As for Curly Pieces? Well that and the horse it rode in on can just fúck right off.

    And rmember the kid who did the National Aquatic Park (Aquazone) one? She was meant to be a frog or something but the stupid fake American accent on her. That also drove me mental.

    Ta'ed that I signed in and out twice before I remembered what I wanted to post.
    OMG I have so much money to pay out in the next few days, everytime I look around, I remember something else I have to find change for.
    That Im thinking the above as I pass two of the homeless ppl who earn their living on the streets of my town of origin.
    That when I go out I see the same three dogs who are allowed stray playing on the side of the road, instead of being somewhere safe.
    That the almost completely blind,deaf and elderly family pet was almost run over on what used to be a quiet suburban estate road, cause he is allowed to roam.

    * Area is "Nice" and no one wants to cause trouble by reporting said dog to warden.
    Have misplaced a cheque sent to me for some freelance work, and Im too scared/embarrassed to call and ask them to reissue.
    I know full well, once I do that, the original will turn up.

    He just wanted to see your mickey.

    Did he ask if you saw the match yesterday ��

    An American just asked me for directions to the nearest magazine store. I duly obliged with a " fifty yards up, take a right and its on the left, can't miss it"

    "Awesome " says he

    I wonder what he says says when something is really awesome. I wanted to say "no, it's not! Your girlfriends arse is awesome"

    When you get a choice of two microwaves one has "3 year warranty" written on the box, one doesn't, you buy the one with the long warranty, open it up, on the user manual on the outside it reads "3 year warranty"... inside the manual it reads....
    Your appliance comes with a 12month warranty, WHAT.....a 3 year warranty valid for 12 months???
    There is no option to register it or extend it, bit misleading init?

    That would drive me mad, too. Surely there must be something printed on the receipt about it! If not, I'd keep the box as proof.

    My lungs are my trivial annoyance for the last month. I clear a chest infection, feel somewhat ok, then I wake up choking on my own phlegm, but I'm not actually sick anymore, just producing so much phlegm I can hardly breathe :/

    On the upside- Boards at work :D

    That happened to me before. You might have blocked sinuses. I took the Sinutab and after a few days the drip throat sleep choking stopped, it was awful.

    Missing an important letter in the middle of junk mail. Letter was delivered nearly 3 weeks ago but it got mixed up in supermarket and hardware store offers. Found it late this evening and must be attended to first thing in the morning. Had to drop everything this evening and get advice concerning it. An Post shouldn't deliver mail unless there's an address on it. Local Centra and Eurospar are the usual culprits for the junk mail around here of late.

    Walked my dog earlier on, both of us got completely soaked. Going to bed just now and I walk into my room to find my duvet on the floor and muddy paw prints all over my sheet. He's lying on my pillow fast asleep and has his teddy resting under his chin. Well for some. How can you be annoyed though- there is something so cute about muddy paw prints. The sheets were in need of a change anyway.
    He's lucky he's cute :pac:

    Bit more than a TA, but I'm waiting for the tap on the shoulder to be called into the directors office and being made redundant. There are 2 of us in my department, I'm better at the job than he is, but he is here a lot longer, so it will cost them about 3 times more to make him redundant.
    I wish it would just happen, at least I wouldn't have the cloud over me all day.

    My other TA is when I'm wearing a hoodie out and about, I'm always wary of putting the hood up and look like I'm about to rob a place or something.

    Completely turn off your phone at night, and don't check it till you're up and about. If there's an emergency, they'll hammer your door down.
