    You get on best with the one who felt you up, and you think he's weird?

    OK so. I can see how that can be awkward alright.

    He's my closest friend in the house. We had an awkward situation. Thought it was dealt with. Thought he was grand with me, I wasn't off with him. Things were okay and now all of a sudden for no reason he's completely off with me. I didn't do anything, I haven't said anything so see no reason why he's being like he is. And I'm not imagining it either, my friend stayed here last night and she'd know how well we usually get on and she was like wtf is going on, you can cut the tension with a knife.

    It's just that I'm moving out on Tuesday and don't want to leave things on a bad note with him.

    Paying to use the toilet in certain shopping centres. WTF is that about? I'm off to make a thread.

    If it was an amazing toilet with a man called Jeeves handing me toilet roll I wouldn't be annoyed by it but the toilets you pay for are at most equal to average. If you want me to pay to have a piss at least make it a place I want to piss in again.

    Only God Forgives - rubbish, turned it off after 20 minutes
    Force of Execution - Depressing drivel, off after 20 minutes

    We've been having Twin Peaks marathon nights over the weekend. I'd forgotten how creepy, weird and quirky it was. Maybe watch something retro :)

    Kilkenny Hurling manger Brian Cody and his f**king hat. That poxy hat and him are never apart. I imagine he eats his dinner while wearing it and sleeps with the wife while wearing it.

    The new ad for Sky Sports for €1. Yer wan playing the Banjo and the Douchebag going around on the scooter.
    Also the itsforwomen.ie ad. How can they be allowed put this sexist rubbish on the television? I think Katie Taylor should get checked out for brain injury from all that boxing. Those dead eyes and monotone voice should send alarm bells to those who care for her.

    What's the full deal with that offer? I heard on the radio you can get Sky Sports for €1 for six months. I'm assuming that afterwords they implement a hefty increase and there's nothing you can do about it because in the fine print you agreed to sign up for the next twenty years?

    Yep I think that's it.

    Setanta sports/BT Sport have a €1 for a month deal on for the month of August I think, and you can just cancel at the end of the month and that's the end of it. There's a bargain alerts thread I think on it.

    It's a one month contract, which means you only have to keep it for one month minimum.

    To cancel, you give them 31 days cancellation notice.

    It'd go something like this:
    1. Ring Sky
    2. Ask for the Sports €1/month for six months offer
    3. Five months later, ring and say you're giving your one month cancellation notice for the Sports
    4. Hey presto, you got six months of Sky Sports for six euro

    having to touch taps and doors on the way out of a public toilet. In Milan every toilet door was kickable open on the way out and every tap had a foot pump or a sensor. In Dublin if the tap doesnt get me after going to the trouble of deep cleansing my hands the door does. yep I am completely nuts but in a trivial way :D lol

    Not trivial but I thought it was important to post this. You know that couple who were accused of abandoning their child because he had downs syndrome? Well the father is a convicted sex offended including the sexual abuse of a 5 year old girl!! WTF?!!! How is he allowed to have a child in his care??? How is he allowed anywhere NEAR any children full stop??

    I thought I'd heard it all, but I just have no idea what's going on in the world anymore. My blood is BOILING after discovering this. http://news.sky.com/story/1316338/abandoned-downs-baby-parents-break-silence

    I hate when you're trying to have a perve at a pedestrian whilst you're driving past, but another car/road sign/lamppost gets in the way for that crucial 2-3 seconds and ruins the whole opportunity.

    I never touch the door handles in the toilets. I always kick the door open.

    Yes but the issue is that the door doesn't kick in the direction of travel therefore a previously germ free hand is forced to grab a disgusting warm wet handle full of bacteria , some of it harmful due to the fact that some people simply do not wash their hands [or wash them properly when they do] after doing either a number 1 or even a 2.

    The signpost near the end of the M11 at Gorey. It proclaims that Wexford is 52km away. You pass it at 120kph and realise that if the motorway continued you'd be there in 26 minutes instead the motorway runs out not long afterwards, your speed falls way off and you're lucky to be in Wexford in 40-45mins.

    '52km' - it's a taunt every fecking time I pass it!
