    The dog knocked over my nice cold can of white Monster drink.
    This was yesterday. Life is not fair. I had pad the full whack, a shocking two euro thirty five cent to buy it out of Spar.
    Or when you drop a joint in the bath.

    When Dominoes stopped selling Chicken Dunkers. I used to order pizza as a side order for my dunkers.

    I very nearly wrote them a sternly worded letter. Luckily enough I was too lazy.

    The other day in work, I was going to have soup for my lunch but noticed that there was vegetable curry on offer. Nice one!! It wasn't until I was walking down to my table that I realised that my curry was hosting a convention for the most reprehensible vegetable-type things known to man or woman. Peas, sweetcorn and mushrooms! The evil triumvirate!!!

    I was devastated!! (I may have used the term "Worse than the Holocaust!")

    I've already seen one post on this thread about something that devastated you as a kid,

    My one: falling and cutting - well grazing myself when I was 7.

    Little dramatic scr0t I was.

    When you complete the wipe and then have another minor movement.

    Although not as severe as whiskeyman or Boom Bap, when you fart after wiping / flushing/ already used the air freshner.

    Youve never dropped a malteaser in the shower and smushed it down the plug hole with your big toe?

    It's the sole of your foot you use and it's called a waffle-stomp.

    Seeing this in the supermarket earlier

    Are we just trying to create as much rubbish as we possibly can these days? I mean come on, products like that just shouldn't be allowed!

    When they brought out those Tayto chocolate bars. I had so much hope for them and they failed me completely.

    I wasn't feeling it sorry. The chocolate wasn't to my liking at all.

    I'm in the same boat. I would actually like if personal Internet usage disappeared for a month just to see how it was. We'd all be reading books and talking to each other in bars etc.

    The second time in a row I hit the Mc Donalds drive through for a Mc Flurry and they "didn't have any ice cream, sorry". I elected not to get anything else - I wanted dat Mc Flurry... - And sat there literally wasting space in the que, awkwardly passing the money, then food windows on my way out. And that's when it struck me.

    Kids are born in some hell hole in Africa, only to be chucked into a festering dyke to rot and I'm cussing out not having some ice cream. I laughed at just what a worthless person that made me - then continued sulking over my ice cream...

    I dunno. During the great Boards DDOS debacle none of us read any books or talked to anyone. We were far too busy desperately pressing F5 and sobbing.
