    There was an outcry at the last fire drill I was involved in winter last year as it was about 4PM and virtually everybody picked up coats, bags, car keys etc. for an early departure. One bloke even went out with his coffee mug like that bloke out of Dilbert.

    Fire marshals weren't happy bunnys.

    Those people who arrive at your desk to ask you something but because you are/look busy they stand back and don't say anything, possibly waiting for you to finish what you are doing before interrupting. You only know they are there because you happen to spot them out of the corner of your eye or hear a little cough or whatever. Well, if they think that I am going engage first they are wrong. They can stay hovering there like an immovable object for the entire day for all I care. You want me, you engage first!

    A woman got on the Luas the other day with her sprog. Said sprog, approx 2, big mutton head and rosey red cheeks then proceeded to shout out 'na na' every so often. Cue the mother gawping around the tram with a big smile on her face seeing if any of us were as enthralled by her kid as she was. We weren't. Yet she couldn't help but let those of us in the general vicinity know that he loves bananas and that's why he was repeating it so often.

    Well, I just don't know how I have lived up to now without knowing this interesting nugget of information. I was straight on the phone after I alighted the Luas to let my close friends and relatives know about this wonder child.

    Spread the word people, there is a child in the Ranelagh area who loves bananas and calls them 'na nas'

    I keep smelling 3 in 1 oil, or something simillar, except we don't have any. I can smell it outside and indoors and it's annoying me now.

    If you can smell it indoors and out then it has to be on you.

    New perfume?

    Pumpkinseeds did you brush against something that has transferred oil onto your clothes ?

    Can't stop laughing. I know exactly what you mean.

    i get the same bus every day to work and these people who are on it the same time every day and same trip still ask the bus fare and hold up the bus but most annoyingly the then have to go searching for the change

    Aches from a fall on ice yesterday. No damage done but I'd love to see how many twists and turns I took, during my scramble, to have aches in neck, shoulder, leg and backside. TA was I warned Mrs S to be careful because it was icy outside and I went flying within 5 minutes of my lecture.

    This is not altogether fool, m'lud. 3-In-1 is actually lemongrass oil. That perchance?

    Breaking bad is TA annoying me. It's nowhere as good as people led me to believe. My heart is broken for Jesse, I want his mam to come give him a hug take him home and make him his favourite dinner, and I can't help but wonder every single time I see Marie, if she's had a filler in her top lip. Walt is an asshole. He doesn't even care about Jesse at all

    Ahem, I beg to differ, however if you want to up the game, get yourself the boxset of The Sopranos, and watch it twice. Quick fix in the meantime is House of Cards and /or Orange is the New Black....all good.

    I thought he was calling her nana but she was obviously too young to be his nana. Had your story been on the red line however, I'd still be a little unsure :P

    Orange is the new black is next! E what happens with Jesse??

    Lets not spoil it for those who have not seen it yet;)

    You'll find this is part of the genius of BB when this all turns around.

    Also, check out the amount of purple that appears around Marie. Purple purple PURPLE

    Trivially annoyed that you cannot register as a bone marrow donor for a family member. You simply join the registry and can be asked to donate to anyone. Why shouldn't we be able to donate to a fmaily member if needs be?

    Posting show premises and plot developments on an AH thread has got to be a new low for this thread.

    TA at the fact people cannot simply navigate to the TV Forum

    Dreadlocks. Seeing people with dreadlocks. Disgusting looking things. Dripping from people's heads. Dingdingding is that the year 2000 looking for its hair style back?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,818 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE

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