On the way to work this morning I..........

Sadderday

OK, so maybe you were on the way to work/college/home after the night before. Anything interesting happen?

Did you maybe find a fiver / have a barney with someone / see something unusual or funny or disgusting / get something for free / see someone famous or gorgeous / realise you left the iron on / realise you forgot something / do something you shouldn't have done ????

Since my mornings have been fairly boring and normal lately I am wondering if you have any stories to entertain me today!

Saw mount Fuji out the window of a monorail.

Nichololas

Legged it because I was late.

...encountered a woman at the gate demanding to see a local councilor who holds a surgery in my building once a month. She has the wrong date. Upon politely informing this cantankerous old c*nt that she was at the wrong gaff she began to shout. Anti-Irish invectives were issued by her good self. A swift "f*ck off, your attitude is sh*t" was deployed. Then I went inside and had two boiled eggs and a cup of tea.

kfallon

I saw exactly the same places as when I walked to work yesterday....and the day before!

However I listened to different songs, oh the excitement of having your phone on 'shuffle'

punched a child in the face

Akrasia

Before work I let the dog out do to it's business and when I called her she didn't come back in.
She did after a minute though

True story I swear

Super-Rush

Pulled the headphones out of someones ears.

Love it

connundrum

Asked the guy behind the counter of the local coffee shop for my €5 change to come in coins so that I could leave a tip. I then absentmindedly dropped the full €5 in coins into the tip jar.

I did the awkward pause of looking at the coins, trying to decide if I'd fish out the €3 too much I'd put in Ricky Gervais style. I left it in there, confident that those ying yang yokes will come back around in some other way.

Morning drama abound!

I had to stand on the bus and left my sports bag on the thing where you leave bags at the front
Then I got a seat upstairs and left the bag behind but it was still there and not stolen when I came back down
That was my morning
:pac:

rainbowdrop

Had my breakfast whilst driving, same as i do every day! 2 slices of toast and a cup of tea......

Meals on wheels!!!

Sadderday

I did have an argument through eye contact with an aul one that sits beside me every morning ...

but thats every morning so nothing special there.

Saw a bloke in t-shirt and shorts at 8am, made it feel like summer

petes

Helped a woman lift open a shutter, went to the shop and bought two bananas, two apples and cigarettes. Then was late for work.

maximoose

Saw a drunk woman sitting down on the pavement in a puddle of her own piss, which was trickling down on to the road.

Gardiner street is just lovely.

Mint Sauce

I woke up, remembered it was my day off, and went back to sleep.

Didn't happen this morning but was walking to work when a car decided to burst into flames on the road.

anncoates

Passed all the flower memorials on Jervis Street for that poor woman that was killed by the Luas this week and felt terrible.

Banjo String

Sneezed inside my motorcycle helmet, snots ran down the inside of the visor which made me projectile vomit before I got time to take the helmet off, or raise the visor.

I don't smell great today.

Sadderday

one morning I passed a blow up doll strapped to a pole in stephens green

akura

I saw the drivers door of an oil lorry propped open with an inflatable penis.

... got hit in the head by an iPhone. Not this morning though.

Some girl had rested it against the window in her (upstairs) office, then opened the window and the phone went flying. My head saved her screen.

The Royal Scam

Drove from Carlow to Belfast and made great time until I took a wrong turn off the motorway in Belfast and lost all the time I had made up trying to find my way out of the edgy part of the city

She timed it to coincide with your passage under the window, she was hitting on you both figuratively and literally (or should that be literally and literally).

I saw a three car pile up, although what remained could barely be referred to as cars . Unfortunately, it's also quite common here.

razorblunt

Passed the same woman I pass every day, this morning I was earlier than expected so she got a "I know, I know I'm early", probably on for the ride tomorrow now.

Oh and once I saw a blimp.

Sadderday

I saw Sean Penn on my way to work one morning on Dawson Street a few years back.

We made eye contact. He had more make up on than I did.

I couldnt think of what film he was in but I remembered he banged Madonna.

it was just there !, someone must have been out the night before on a stag or something. The plan was to take it and put it the passenger seat of my boss's car (that was in the job carpark) but we bottled it

Never mind that, there was a queue at the bus stop and on the bus were people using seats upstairs instead of standing in the aisle :pac:

Get the biggest bra you can find (you may need to phone a friend!), and strap it across the front of their car. Luminous pink is good (once the car is NOT luminous pink of course!!).

................... oh, I'm so fired ...............

Stop giving me ideas!

RossFixxxed

Heard a pretty amazing conversation on Lower Abbey street (Dublin).

A guy on a walking stick, half his face is motionless, he's twisted and in bits. He hobbles over to a guy with a pram and a baby. He gets up to the guys face and says "what was that you sold me there three weeks ago? I took a stroke after takin' them pills."

The other guy doesn't bat an eyelid and says "ahh I've got them giraffes now and you definitely won't take a stroke from them."

And the guy is actually TEMPTED to buy them!!

The guy with the pram then says "I've a load of them in the little fella's nappy sure you can try one." This is where the dark humour just turned sour and I had to leave.

Obviously it works better, if the driver gets into the car without seeing the front of it, and drives around for a while wondering why people are staring.

I moved to a new office last week & now have a super view of The Bernese Alps (L-R: Schreckhorn, Finsteraarhorn, Eiger, Mönch & Jungfrau) from the balcony.

No monorail though.

As I got to work the other morning our grease trap was being emptied. This is what it looks like.

Yes, that is hundreds of cockroaches.

All this before half seven.
