    On the bus and it's very full, I'm standing toward the back. A woman leaves her seat to get off. Another woman pushes past me to get to the seat and then dies the same thing to the woman who is vacating the seat.

    It turns out the second woman she shoves past is 7 months pregnant.

    The absolute ignorance.

    My thumb has gone all the yellowy bruised colour now, it's still sore but now it's sore and looks like it has jaundice :p

    I hope it's just severe bruising and not any kind of break/fracture!

    Only 3 hours into the working day and it's a real "face palm" day already...
    Have a check around people, at least 4 villages are missing their idiots today. Look no further, I have them here.

    I have a philosophy exam in 3 minutes, and I just had to Google a definition of 'metaphysics'...

    Ugh, philosphy, that's a TA enough on its own. I did a semester of it in my first year in college, that was enough for me. Good luck with your exam!

    Just remember......Plato, thinks we all live in a cave and enjoy shadow puppet shows :pac:

    Personally I think "It was before I'd had my coffee" should be an ironclad defense in a court of law.

    "Why did you kill everyone in your office?"

    "It was before I'd had my coffee."

    "Case dismissed."

    I've said it before, but I'll say it again.... wheeler dealers!

    Wife put her hardly used Dawes touring cycle up for sale. We can't get a child seat to fit on it. €600 new, she was selling for €200 with no offers.

    Some guy kept phoning her offering €100 and saying he was doing her a favour as she would never sell it for the asking price. Usual wheeler dealer nonsense.

    So she does sell it for the asking price and the when informed wheeler dealer loses his mind demanding proof and to be told who it was sold too. She had to block his number.

    Almost a carbon copy of an experience I had selling a laptop a year or two ago.

    At least with adverts you dont have to put your number up. Could not be having the muppets in wheeler dealer land calling me!

    I'm not entirely sure what you're driving at but I'm just bored.

    What's the connection to being an English teacher?

    Ah no, I just spotted that one and thought it was funny because it'd sound like the word camera if spoken aloud, and quickly.

    Very trivial one....

    When you get a notification from an app on your phone, you use the notification as a link then to that exact part of said app... Message notifications will take you right to the conversation. Game notification straight to the game. That's the idea.
    So why the fúck does the Sky News app not do the same?... They give you a notification for a headline... Most of them you'll ignore, but on every occasion I ever click in, not only does it only bring you just to the news list, but the page for the story in reference isn't even live yet.
    So they are sending out notifications about storys BEFORE they've even updated the news list to include the relevant item.

    Me too,headset on doing paperwork :pac:

    Anyway I went to a shopping centre earlier and forgot it was the farmers market day,place was jointed.I was going up a one way in the carpark and an ass*ole turned to come down against me,as we were nearly head on and I was determined not to give way someone started their car to back out.I was delighted because he would be driving off and the ass*ole would have to reverse but it turns out that he was also an ass*ole and backed out the wrong way so I was meant to reverse.......Long story short I got the space but made 2 enemies and I hope no one was nearby recording the "battle" because I would probably be ordered to do an anger management course.:o:pac:

    Yes. Victory is mine!! I finally got rid of three bulky old televisions that weigh about a half-ton between them to the local WEEE place today. <does evil-yet-happy little dance> :D:D:D

    On the other hand, if see one more nonce in an Audi driving around without using any indicators at all whatsoever I shall ram the cunt. :mad:
