    You've clearly not heard of the bassist's pet project where he makes music from recordings of his own cries as an infant, which I backed through crowd funding before Kickstarter was thing.

    Vinyl through a gramophone or GTFO

    Would you buy my Album? I'll call it "Cold in the shade" - it's moody and sets the tone.

    Ahh, one of the great things about getting older is not having to take part in music snobbery anymore. In my 30's I just stopped giving a monkeys about what was new musically.:D

    I didn't get the memo that all ladies carrying a little bit of weight should automatically approve and like that song.

    It's a fcuking awful song, so annoying. :mad: And for the record, I hate people like that. 'Only a dog wants a bone, I'm curvy, men like that' Get the **** out. Different people have different tastes.

    Some like fat women, some like skinny women, some like them short, some like them tall. Calvin Harris, he likes them all.

    Can I pay you for the album even though it doesn't exist yet and may never be completed? I'd use kickstarter but they don't use organic fair trade coffee in the downstairs canteen in their head office.

    My local shop has one of those strange machines at the till. The cashier puts your money in and it spits out your change like a slot machine.

    I don't know why, but it annoys me having to fish around in a tray for my change rather than just have it handed to me.

    Plus I always feel an irrational compulsion to shout out "I won! I won!" whenever my change gets farted out of the unholy contraption.

    It's mad really when you think about it. People get away with singing about "skinny bítches" but imagine the same song reversed, singing about "fat cows". There'd be war.

    If I owned that shop, i'd ensure the cashiers were all really attractive and had to stand on a small stool to make them like a foot higher, and have really harsh lighting above their heads so that when you fished around for your coppers like a filthy coin carrying peasant they could look down at you and sneer disgustedly in very contrasting lighting

    I think you'll find they're/we're* "skinny bitches", actually.

    Have you ever touched a coin?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭Rubberlegs


    I go out of my way to feed the birds, all year round. Why is it then, the ungrateful little f**kers feel the need to repay me by crapping on my washing?? As if it's not hard enough this time of year to get it dry, then you have to wash some things again. Even worse is when you don't notice the crap at first, put the top or whatever away, then notice it when you go to put it on:'(. If I could fly, I'd sh*te all over the little b*****ds!

    No, only plebeians handle coins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    If coins somehow find their way into my wallet I open it when I get home and tip them into a rather large bucket. There are a lot of coins in that bucket now, and I could probably spend them on something, but I daren't touch them.

    Friend wants to take a pic with me for Facebook. She goes upstairs to change and put on makeup because I'm dressed up and she doesn't want to not be dressed up in the pic if I am. She proceeds to take 20+ pictures (no exaggeration). We look through the pics together. She says no to every picture I like myself in, saying she doesn't like how she looks ( bullsh1t, she's gorgeous and she knows it) and just LOVES all the ones that make me look like a troll or the ones I wasn't ready for. I finally get her to put up some of the ones I like but a few days later one of the troll pics is up as well. Very annoyed and feeling ugly.

    Things like this make me glad that I can never quite shake the thought that everything is transient, I am guaranteed to die eventually, it could theoretically happen at any time, I will be completely forgotten in the sands of time, and worrying about looking my best in a photo is ultimately utterly pointless.

    Spending 20 minutes of her tragically finite time on this Earth preparing for a selfie, she needs a talking to. :pac:

    She does say "nah im just playing" in the line after which mitigates it somewhat imo

    So I hear a lot of Dublin parents calling their little sons "buddy" as a term of endearment these days.

    This annoys me. Trivially.

    It is a trivial annoyance to be sure. I can't help feeling peeved though. It was more like an hour of preparation and 20 minutes of photo taking. Eek! Maybe I should say something..

    I'd be afraid of turning into most parents I know. I'm pretty selfish and self obsessed already. I can't afford to turn into an even more insufferable arsehole.
    And kids get dirty. I couldn't be dealing with that. The two babies in my life, are without a doubt the loves of my life. But even yesterday as an example, she was giving me kisses. Her dummy was in her mouth that was fine so I was kidding her dummy and she loved it. Next thing she whips the dummy out of her mouth, plants a kiss right on my lips, a real sloppy wet kiss, complete with runny nose.

    Then I was trying to feed her (pasta) and she absolutely destroyed me, her, and my cream fabric sofa. Could not be dealing.



    On the subject of babies, I moved my dogs beds up to out room in order to stop chewing. Nothing chewed last night but this is how I woke up this morning -
    http://tinypic.com/r/21diiq0/8

    That's the best way to wake up :D
    Ours are allowed on the bed by invitation only, usually on a Saturday morning for cuddles. It's not easy to make a super king size bed seem small but 2 german shepherds and 2 mini dachshunds manage it.
    Finding out via text message that someone I live with, and have been with (on and off) for the past 6 or so years, is moving to New York with work for a while.

    A text.

    Oh dear.
    Sorry to hear that.

    Music snobs.

    My husband and I go to Electric Picnic every year with a big group. There's a couple in the group who are complete music snobs. My husband and I will listen to almost anything and at festivals you just kind of mozy around listening to whatever catches your fancy.
    The year Ellie Goulding performed (I think it was the year before last) the woman in the music snob couple spent the day giving out about the poor line-up and Ellie Goulding but kept calling her Eeeeely Golding just so that everyone would know how "cool" she was because she clearly didn't know who Ellie Goulding was because you know, she has no radio in her car, her house and never engages in any sort of conversation about pop culture. Yawn.
    The thing that made me laugh though is that both her and her husband were bopping away and singing along to Sexy and I know it and Girls Aloud in the silent disco :rolleyes:
