That no matter how precise I try to be when opening an Oxo cube along the supposed fold, I invariably end up shredding off the wrapper into teeny tiny bits of foil which is just a huge pain in the arse quite frankly.

Galtee cheese used be painful for that foil craic, or those cheese triangles! Jesus! Babybel on the other hand, easy to open, but, well, as Croc Dundee says -

"You can live on it, but it tastes like shìt!"

when someone bums a rollie off me, don't mind that at all but then when they rip the cardboard from the pack of skins for the roach! My sister is the worst for this, you end up with motherless little batches of skins with no pack floating around the house :mad::mad::mad:

Irish rail. Spent 19euro on a ingle ticket from Dublin to Enniscorthy yesterday, bloody thing arrived an hour late. First excuse was the train in front had a problem going up the hill between Wicklow and Rathdrum, then it was signal failure. sat in Rathdrum for 40 minutes. Everytime the driver came on to speak it was crackling and muffled you could only catch some of what was being said.

People who think that medical doctors "deserve" huge salaries. They did a university course, same as most other people who work for far, far less. When will people cop on to the fact that it is just another job. They are not gods in white coats. Idiots.

Their work seems so basic too particularly if they specialise in something like a foot Other profession in medicine aswell, therapist etc make a mint, nice cushy office, all their equipment, advertising paid for and done for em and the stuff they actually do is laughable.

And people who look at you like you have two heads when you give that answer! Like it's stupid to get a tattoo because you really like it but it's acceptable to get some lines from Keats written in Hindi on the back of your neck because it like, really reflects how I feel about stuff, y'know?

Here's the story behind my tattoos: I did a drawing, brought it into a tattoo parlour, made an appointment, maybe discussed some improvements to the design with the tattooist, and then he tattooed me. Sorry if you don't like my story :rolleyes:

I am working towards a PhD at the moment which will allow me to be called doctor. It has taken me nearly a decade of studying from undergraduate up. I refuse to call anyone without a PhD a doctor as in my eyes they are just undergraduate physicians.

People who go on about medical doctors being "very highly qualified" really annoy me. They've got a level 8 bachelor degree...same as every teacher, nurse, librarian, physiotherapist, etc., etc.,

It's far from just another job. Peoples lives and health are at stake. Nothing is more important than that.

Ha. Well if the rubbish collectors stopped collecting rubbish I think you'd soon change your mind about who has the most important job in society. They contribute more to a healthy society than any doctor, but they are paid what, €8 an hour?

What about the scientists who develop the medicine the doctors merely prescribe and the scientists who develop the machines that the doctors merely switch on? They are not on astronomical salaries.

They're as good as when you need quad-bypass heart surgery done.

I can drop off my own rubbish at the rubbish tip. Rubbish collection is merely a convenient service. I couldn't very well perform open heart surgery on myself.

Ahh, I see. Ill informed post is ill informed.

I'd like to see everybody going to the rubbish tip themselves. When the streets are head high in rubbish you'll find that the system of delivering your own rubbish to the dump doesn't work. Clearly, you have never visited countries which don't have rubbish collection. There, rubbish and disease are rampant, unlike here, thanks to the rubbish collectors who are paid minimum wage to keep you safe.

Heart surgery is no more a skill than that offered by any other professional.

As a child one of my favorite things to do was the regular Saturday morning delivery to the rubbish tip with my old man, that was before it became a recycling money racket. That's right- everyone went to the rubbish tip themselves, and guess what? The system worked.

Ahh Jesus, come on! You think if they had bin collectors in the slums that all their problems would be solved? Bring on the bin collectors, you've just solved a third world problem with a first world solution.

(Don't give yourself a pat on the back just yet, I was being sarcastic!)

... *speechless*.


Well that's me told. I'll leave it there.

Czarcasm: I'll leave you to go and do your worshiping at the feet of somebody who did a bachelor degree in medicine, seeing as you are so mightily impressed by it.
