    When you go to the toilet, I'm trying to put it delicately :-) and you feel the big cold splash on rear end ;-)

    *Speaking of all things American, I always instinctively read your username as Eisenhower! :o

    You can call me Ike. Is that for males? I am not well informed on this at all.

    PEOPLE who smoke, go to the doctor every few weeks,
    get medicine, ah sure ,its free ,
    i have a medical card.
    Here s a tip,
    if you are over 30 , and smoke ten cigarettes every day,
    you are an idiot ,and a moron.

    AT least try and give up smoking .
    Otherwise you are just slowly destroying your body.
    90 PER CENT of people i know ,gave up smoking,


    Did you ever smoke?
    I smoked for years, and tried several times to give them up, it is very, very hard (I have heard it is easier to get off heroin - nothing to back that up mind).
    you say 90% of people you know, quit, that is a huge percentage? I would say about 10% of all the people I know gave them up.
    Some want to, most despite saying they want to, don't.

    Frankly, I cannot understand why more people do not want to get off them, but it is a choice, and I can tell you, giving lectures and pontificating about smoking and all health issues, will do nothing to make people give them up, it just pisses them off. Describing smokers as morons etc does not help.

    For what its worth, I am off them a few years ( 40 a day) and if I went to the doc tomorrow and he told me I had three months to live, first thing I would do is buy 20 major...........but having said that, I am not sorry I gave them up.

    1)When you turn on the tap to get a glass of water except you turn it on too much and the water splashes on you and around the sink but not in the glass and you end up cleaning it up with paper towels that disintegrate when you use them.

    Or when your in a pub or restaurant bathroom and wash your hands but theres too much pressure so it splashes out from the sink which is perfectly placed at crotch level so that it now looks as if you just didnt manage to get to the toilet on time and have wet yourself.

    That little dance you have to do under the hand dryer to try and get your crotch under the warm air, hoping that no one comes in at that moment :o

    ps doesn't work with a new airblade dryer :mad::cool:

    Patronising comments in regards smokers such as this one annoy me. And I don't even smoke!

    Having €19.98 in my account and having insufficient funds to take out the score I need from the Jazeus ATM!!!
    Go into one of the big supermarkets, buy a pack of chewing gum on the card and get the balance taken out as cash back. I do this a lot in SuperValu.

    I must have slept in a weird position because now I have a really sore back, right above my shoulder blade, even turning my head hurts. How do I fix this!? :eek:

    People with incredibly tight jeans/ trousers , men & women and have a phone jammed in the back pocket.

    And people with dogs in their handbags, makes me want to ring them just to see them answer a dog poo covered phone, i mean the dogs must be sh*tting and p*ssing all day all over the contents, classy

    People who forget that After hours is just a bit of fun. Why take things so seriously? Why take so personally the random comments of a stranger that you've never met and never will meet:confused: There seems to be a lot of posters who want to take offence at stuff, they probably take offence at the fact that there isn't a daily thread at which to take personal offence at. Life is just too short.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 EVOL1991


    People in supermarkets who stop to chat to each other blocking the aisle while doing so.

    What's worse is the people who take offense and say things like "well I suppose I should expect it from AH" or "thats low even for AH", you're posting on AH and therefore you are also part of AH, and it's not like after hours is just some sub forum reserved for the scum of boards, its the most general forum on the site, you're gonna insult a wide range of people yourself with comments like that!

    Oh come onnn, lighten up for goodness sake. I'm not even going to bother arguing with you.

    I'm having difficulty deciding whether you're joking or serious.... :o

    My post was agreeing with you anyway!

    It's after hours. The default is that everyone is being sarcastic. What more do you expect from this place? :P

    People who say "mwah" when greeting each other with a 'kiss'.

    People cycling on footpaths who play chicken with pedestrians.

    Students from a certain Mediterranean country blocking up the path.

    People who are stunned when one is Atheist.

    People stopping right in front of you on the path.

    People who great by kissing on each cheek. What's wrong with a hand shake or a hug if it's someone you know really well?

    A greeting with a kiss, handshake or hug is fine - it's the "mwah" sound they make.

    Sitting naked with a load of men? Where do you think the word "Steamer" comes from?? As Aristotle put it, Phukdatphorragamasoljers.
