    Dear perfect poster....................please get out!!!

    We want misery in here, not perfection.:P

    lol.. well they say "Misery loves company.." Oh by the way, saying " perfect" as I used it there is kerry dialect! They use it for everything. Give a shop the right money and that is " perfect"...Everything? the answer is always "perfect" I did not realise I had slipped so much into the vernacular..PERFECT! I belong! :)

    I just read through about 12 pages of this thread - and I don't remember a word of it! Stupid cold, stupid bunged up head. I must have used about 650 tissues since yesterday.

    Let me summarise the last 12 pages.... People are getting trivially annoyed (TA) about things. Bit of toilet talk. Bit of flirting.

    Between you and me, we must have put a large dent in the Amazon rainforest today.

    If I click on a link someone has posted, when I leave it, I'm back at the top of the page again rather than at the post. So trivial, yet so bloody annoying :(

    Other people - nothing unusual about that but but there's a specific instance today!

    Out having a brekkie treat this morning in a cafe, sitting at a table for 4 on my own as there's only tables for four in the cafe. No sooner sitting down, barely a bite taken and obvious given the amount of food still on my plate, than a woman comes up to me asking if the seats beside me are taken.

    No problem with that, always happy to make room for 2 people to sit at a table beside me if i'm on my own, them sitting opposite each other and me pretending there's an invisible wall down the middle of the table. So put down my knife and fork to move my coat, bag, shopping, etc. to the chair opposite me and say work away. Next thing 2 more people and a child come over to join her and take up all the remaining seats at my table and squeeze the child in too.
    So I had to retrieve all my belongings again, keep them on my lap and I am now one person at a crowded table. Not only that but they've no food with them which means there's a fourth still in the queue! I'd understand if I looked as if I was nearly finished and they were planning on being rude by crowding me out so that I finished up quickly, and in that case I may even have accommodated them had they been nice or jokey about it, but I HAD JUST SAT DOWN. :mad:

    Well I've never eaten so slowly in my life, every bite savoured and tea nursed, even I was TA'd at how long I was taking - I had things to do godammit!! :D

    TA'd I'm no good at parody posts, someone will be along though Poochie.


    You did the right thing, passive agression was the only solution there.

    Wash the area, but do not use bleach.....it contains ammonia. Use hot water and a washing detergent or a dishwasher tablet. Failing that you can get stuff in pet shops to discourage dog fouling. Your neighbour is a bastard.

    Bleach does have a smell that certain animals love, but it does not contain ammonia! And don't ever mix the two, for the love of God... :eek:

    Neighbors dog has been pooing on the doorstep every morning for the past week, despite me cleaning it and scrubbing every bloody morning before I go to work.
    TWICE I have stood on it going out the door. When my morning stupor had not quite worn off enough to remember. Ugh.

    Mentioned it to the owner, but think he might have been laughing at me as I walked away.

    Here's a tip that might come in handy. A few years back before I moved out into the sticks. A particular wan would let her Cocker Spaniels out to shít in every neighbours garden but their own. So I scooped up my German Shepherds poo, put it into a plastic bag. Then at about 3:00am, I went to the ignorant pigs house and scattered the dog poo all over the bonnet of her car and her front door mat. Her dogs never shat in anybody's garden again.

    I'm all ready you go out for an hour or two with my friends (whom I haven't seen in months) but I'm so tired and the weather is rubbish. Ah decisions!

    Then stop banging, or move away from the headboard :pac:

    I want to watch the footy highlights, the missus is watching the only TV we have in the house. This is not cool.

    My Husband has this devastated look that he does and I always give in. I call it 'The Very Important Match Face' or the 'Cant Miss The Highlights Face' :)

    My weight-loss is slowing down lately and it's beyond frustrating.

    I know this happens to people but it makes me wonder what I can do to get it going again.

    When that happened me I mixed up my routine and started going for a brisk two mile walk before eating anything at all. This was in addition to my usual exercise and I found it worked very well with regards to getting more weight to feck off! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,495 ✭✭✭KatW4


    I was supposed to come home at 12. It's 2:43 and I'm just in the door. I have rehearsals at 10 am and I know I'm going to regret my decision to go out tonight!

    have you recalculated your TDEE? as you lose weight you need less calories to maintain your current weight, since it's now less weight than it was when you initially calculated your TDEE calories in the first place so to continue losing weight at the pace you started losing at you'd need to figure out what your current TDEE is and subtract 3-500 from that new figure (see? simple!)

    Lived a while on a street that had open plan front gardens and one day saw the old harridan from over the road, who LOVED her dog, getting it to s**t on MY GRASS.. SO I called her, saying I was very very worried as I had just treated the grass with VERY STRONG WEEDKILLER .. she denied it but I bet that poor dog got bathed within an inch of its life that night and it never happened again. Times are that you fight fire withe ingenuity...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭TG1


    TA'd that I woke up with a thumping headache, sore throat, stuffed nose and watery eyes. If this develops into a full on cold it will be no. 4027 in the last 18 months...

    Cracked lips are so fricking annoying. :/ On par with the dreaded paper-cut. Every time I go to open my mouth it stings like a mofo. :( It's a good job I don't have anyone to talk to 'cos it'd be How OW! are OW! you OW!

    Also I'm annoyed that I don't know what ta means. I guess it could mean trivially annoyed because of x y and z?
