The little things you like when they happen or not

    Gettin' a bag a crisps and there being a big one inside, huge, size of a potatoe or something, and the whole bag has them, big unbroken slices, and all lined up like salty soldiers. The bag is fat and round as its full of the gas they fill the bag with, no leaks, you give it a squeeze when you get it. The whole crisp goes in the mouth then you break it, the cheesy flavor powder ****e goes on your tongue at once.

    I prefer King crisps, used to like perri, but they got ****.

    Conversely, when you get the crisp packet, but its too late, and you realise it isn't plump with air, as you squeeze it it gets smaller. There is a small hole, and you are too far from the shop/lazy/not that cheap to return the packet.
    You open it up, the crisps are cracked, all bits, not one is whole. The tips of them are black, you bite the biggest one you can get, its not crispy, its chewy.
    **** this bag of ****e you think, you now decide if you are hungry enough to finish them, or throw them away, I have more self respect when I throw them away.


    What other small things are nice, but can also be crap?

    A nice pair of socks maybe, or a hat.

    A penis joke would also have worked, probably better also, so your first post reply is one of the small things, could have been great, but was more of a stale crisp.

    Sorry man

    Farting/rumbling stomach/burping in bed, mildly satisfying when your on your own. But with company, possibility risk of being kicked out or even kicking out.

    :D

    When you click on a thread expecting it to be good but after reading find it's not and you realise your cursor is too far away from the back button on your browser so you end up posting in it as the reply button is much closer!

    *Sigh*

    The very elusive solid chocolate Kit-Kat chunky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭DerekDGoldfish


    When I go for a crap and the first wipe is clean.

    When I walk down the street and I see a bloke shorter than me.

    When a drink comes to exactly the amount of change I have in my wallet.

    Having no smokes and finding 1 in a box hidden in the car/pockets nothing compares to that feeling finding it

    Hey there chum, when you typed out those 100 or so characters on your keyboard, did your finger ever go near the backspace key?

    Its really usefull and negates the need to slightly move your wrist, followed by the small downward push of your index finger.

    Loads a good stuff in this thread.


    Cold can of coke, nothing like it on a hot day.

    Warm bottle of coke, ****ing minging.

    Not the same!!
    The whole thrill of it is the expectation of a standard Kit-Kat and then the realisation that it's not.
    And I'm fully aware of how sad that sounds.

    Checking your bank balance and finding that you have more than you thought.

    Trying to get money from the atm and finding you have insufficient funds (especially when you're on the piss).

    I used to be like that with the club milks hoping I would get a solid chocolate one...never happened though :( although as a child I did get a double wrapped one once two gold wrappers that was a good day I thought I was the business :pac:

    Imagine your further disappointment if it was in fact a golden ticket-esque competition and you won a trip to the club milk factory.
    Imagine the Jacobs equivalent of Willy Wonka...

    Pink and purple soft fruits. Tremendous


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,766 ✭✭✭squeakyduck


    I love it when you wake up to your other half in the mornings for a cuddle and a lie in.
    Hate it when I wake up like SHIIIIITTTTT get the **** out of my house I'm late for work!!

    Love having chocolate with milk, yum yum yum, worst is when you find the milk has gone off....then it's tea time! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,661 ✭✭✭Voodoomelon


    I hate when pouring milk on cornflakes and the milk lands on a horizontally lying flake and sends the milk flying all over the table.

    Also hate when someone opens a bag of crisps upside down, or when I see a car parked with the wipers halfway across the windscreen.

    finding something you cant figure out where the **** you left it and BAM you suddenly remember where it is..aaaaahhh

    So true! :mad::mad:

    Lie ins :D until you realize you were meant to be somewhere the next day.
    Wild night outs that give you incredible memories but they come with the price of an awful hangover and random scrapes and bruises.
    Having a nice meal in a restaurant with someone, the downside is the meal could be horrible, made you sick and you might have spent a good bit on it :(

    betting on shít, winning is awesome, losing sucks balls.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭coco_lola


    I like AH threads, they make for great reading as I'm an insomniac!

    I love and hate the long threads.. because although there is some funny stuff in them, I refuse to post a reply until I've read everything in case I post the same thing as someone else... Then there's the feeling of elation/disappointment when you see someone has posted your thoughts already... elation that you're not the only one to think it... disappointment cause you didn't get there first :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭ElaElaElano


    In a similar vein to the op, when you go into the chipper and they're in a good mood and give you a massive bag. Or when you go to a funeral of someone you don't even know out of politeness to someone you do know, and are dreading it, but end up getting locked and the sandwiches are really nice.

    Those extremely rare weekend mornings when both kids sleep until 9 and the deliciously guilty feeling of not getting up.

    versus

    Those extremely common weekend mornings when you've gone to bed at 3 and both of them get up at 6 and you realise it's going to be at least 7 days before you get a chance at a night's sleep.

    BAD : Having to endure a person who believes that everyone else is to blame for their (real or imagined) problems

    GOOD : Being a witness when karma catches up with a person who has all the social graces of a virulent fart.

    EDIT: Just remembered a story a friend told me. He was in secondary school, out for lunch at the local shop. While eating an ice cream, the class pr*ck came along and shoved it into his face. A second or two later, he (class pr*ck) was doused by a bucket of water thrown out a top window. Nobody liked him, so everyone laughed at him rather than with him

    When you have 3 up in a Lucky 15 and you check the result of the last race and your horse hasn't won.....you're gutted but then you discover it was a non-runner....ole ole ole ole ole ole ole ole ole
