For the second year in a row everyone from one particular group of friends has forgotten my birthday - haven't heard a peep from any of them but for any of their birthdays a huge fuss is made. I'm annoyed that I'm annoyed tbh, I know I shouldn't care but I do!

I did have a lovely day though so that's the main thing

Accidentally biting into a grape that has seeds inside. Nothing tasty about grape seeds!

Next time you see them, just casually drop into the convo what a FABULOUS time you just had on your birthday. That may motivate some of them to put a reminder in their calenders for next year.

I feel your pain. My birthday is June 2nd. Everyone I know seems to go away for the June bank holiday weekend. So I'll get loads of texts for my birthday, but no one is usually around to actually me around for drink, or make a fuss. They all start ringing me a couple of days afterwards, saying they are sorry they missed by birthday & do I want to go out for drink. No I fcuking well don't, seeing as my birthday was fcucking days ago !!! Then I feel all annoyed for letting myself get annoyed over it.

I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but it does, as I really push the boat out for other peoples birthdays.

The "trash" folder in my email - stupid Americanism. It should be called "rubbish".

We need to work on that so . All suggestions greatly appreciated

If it helps at all, I can run out and take the next bus that comes along... I feel somewhat responsible for the demise of the thread what with all the happy fornication and good news and giggles

I was on a train last night sitting near an American woman and a Dutch guy (with very American sounding English). They weren't being overly loud or anything but by jasus that accent just pierces through your concentration. I wanted to read. I didn't want to hear your conversation about dancing/performance art but god dammit I couldn't zone you out.
Also why have I ever paid for books. torrents + kindle == free instant books. And due to the file types that books are stored as its unlikely to d/w nasty viruses if your any way careful. Didn't not know this. Not that I ever have or will pirate books......

Two attention seeking árseholes on the luas this morning speaking Irish really loudly. Just shut up. Why do people who can speak Irish always make it into such a big deal? I can speak English* and 2 European languages - but I don't need to tell my fellow commuters this. Idiots.

*after last night's encounter with a full bodied rioja this may not have been strictly true this morning :pac:

Well, it's still good news (great in fact) but just not as good as I thought it would be. But still good

Put it this way. Imagine if you were a little blue because you had no apples. Then, unexpectedly, someone offers you two apples. You are really excited about getting them. It takes ages for them to give you the apples. So you busy yourself wrecking everybody's heads in TTTAY while you await confirmation, Then eventually, they give you one apple.

Half good news :pac:

Is '1 Apple' a euphamism for 'getting 1st base'?
2 Apples = getting 2nd base?

I think it might be the apple seed she's more interested in. :pac:

The world's gone mad. OldNotWise is smooching a boy and is all loved up. Now she's using apples as a euphamism for doing the bold thing.
