    Dying for a cuppa when I got home today and there was no milk left.
    And I had €0.30cent to my name.

    Was too embarrassed to ask my neighbour for a cup of milk, so just had water :o

    If my neighbour called round to ask to borrow a cup of milk, my first thought would be "What is this, 1950?"

    But it wouldn't even cross my mind that it might be due to financial issues.

    Kids. Tipp-ex. Carpet.

    :mad:

    And Mr Clever Clogs thought he'd cover the place in turps to get the stains out. Now, we've a ruined carpet (bleached in places) and the place stinks to high heaven. It's only feckin' Tipp-ex and the kids didn't mean it but I went nuclear. And I feel bad about it.

    But the carpet is ruined. <sobs quietly>

    Wisdom tooth coming up, half my gum is flapping off and swollen.

    Swollen tonsil on the same side. makes chewing and swallowing a nightmare. Even breathing is painful, its throbbing so bad every time I open my mouth :(

    The coffee machine in work.
    It's a big beast of a yolk and presumable expensive so why does the coffee taste so awful?
    Usually I bring in my own coffee, but I've run out so am having to drink this awful muck.

    well, since we are being honest - a fb friend of mine... one of their elderly relatives passed away...

    and they have posting pictures and big long messages to their relative that passed away on their timeline... which everyone obviously sees.

    I don't get it. and it annoys me.

    Wisdom teeth in general.
    I got mine removed over a week ago. My face is still swollen, my mouth is still sore and I still can't open my mouth fully. And it's made my ear sore too :-(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭MsBubbles


    Poor Foggy and Poor Mauzo. Hope you both feel better very soon

    I refuse to get any teeth removed!! I got a molar taken out because there was an abscess behind it and it was just horrific :(

    This is my 3rd wisdom tooth, and the 4th one is growing funny already. It can just get it's sh*t together because I'm not going to the dentist!! :mad:

    My husband is mad at me because I won't go, so there's a pain in my hole as well as the pain in my face.

    Hope you're feeling better soon, if not just come over here and we'll eat ice cream and cry a lot.

    And the sad thing is she does have loads of other stuff to do, this is her own Practice, loads of active cases etc. etc. but likes to put off her work by worrying about marks on the pavement and whether the towel in the bathroom (like the kind they have in public toilets) is longer or shorter than the month before... :rolleyes:

    At an educated guess I'd say this is someone with a hugely over-inflated sense of their own importance. Dr. Goose recommends a week of running-boots-up-the-hole at 7am sharp, then come back and see me. :cool:

    Are you insane? If you don't get them removed and they're causing trouble then they'll end up dislocating your jaw! Wisdom teeth are not like normal teeth. If they cause issues or pain, you need to get them out ASAP.

    Oh ffs don't say that to me.

    2 of them are mostly up and are fine, one is halfway but the gum is flappy and swollen. I've googled it and it says it should sort itself out.

    Then one is barely out but seems to be pointing slightly towards my cheek, no pain or anything and none are interfering with my other teeth.

    I can't explain how much I hate the dentist, I know everyone says it, but I went to get my teeth cleaned for my wedding and had to stop her halfway through because I was crying so much. That was just a clean!!

    The longer I leave it the worse it will be, I know.... :o

    Mauzo I'm exactly the same. I shake from head to toe and cry like a baby.

    Well, that's just as good as seeking advice from a medical professional.

    Probably.

    One of my other ones was the same, and that one is fine now so I'm hoping this goes the same way!

    I just googled it so I knew how to avoid infections and stuff.

    smart arse!!

    When you are trying to hail a taxi and someone decides to stand a few meters downwind of you and do the same and they get a taxi before you.

    Once years ago I had to use the facilities in Busaras. I've seen my share of bus/train station toilets but this by far was the worst! I felt like I was walking the line and wasn't meant to return among the living. I did come back. Utterly disgusted, feeling like I needed a bath in bleach. Yuck. And they had the cheek to charge 20 cents!

    Careful what you wish for - the bus station facilities in Limerick they use so much bleach in there it'd tear the eyes (well, 'eye' in my case :pac:) out of you! :eek:

    They could do with one of those weed killer sized backpacks for around the station though, I often picture something like Ghostbusters :D

    I opened a door of a toilet at a London Tube station once. Words fail me, it was unusable, to be polite about the state of it. I think I've mostly blanked the memory.

    Stuff and nonsense, I was in a bar in Casablanca ( a local job, not a hotel bar) and asked to use the jacks.............I still feel the vom rising in my throat when I think about it!! Imagine a gents jacks that had Never been cleaned, ever. The flies, and the stomach churning stench. Way. way worse than the jacks in Trainspotting:D

    I use halo and walk right to the top of the queue and hop in when it arrives. It's great for pissing people off.

    I went into Dr. Quirkys once.

    Once was enough.

    Mauzo, ye poor aul thing.

    TCP, is great for dental problems. You can get it in any chemist for a few euro.
    Just mix a bit in warm water and gargle. It helps drain any infection, and its great for bringing down any swelling you might have too.

    When watching a political discussion show and the host asks a guest "What do you think of ABC?" and the guest responds "Yes, ABC is very important, but the real issue is XYZ".
