Yes. You get them in the store. Definitely not the shop.

I see Steve wozniak on the program celebrity Google box. Why is he on it, he is extremely rich.
He does not need a few 1000 dollars to appear on tv. Is he just bored?
He's not that funny.
The UK version is much more funny and entertaining.
The Americans on the US version are either boring or just bland.
Theres an American model on it who watches TV lying in bed with her mother.
Can she not afford to buy a couch.
What adult over 30 shares a bed with her mother?
She can't afford to buy 2 beds?

I said 'grocery shopping' as opposed to other types of shopping. And in my opinion, 'messages' are when you go the the local shop for a sliced pan or milk, not going to a supermarket for a good few things.

I'm trivial annoyed that you couldn't understand what I meant. If I had just said 'groceries', I would have thought that'd be seen as an old-fashioned term rather than a new thing.

I'm tired.

People that seem to assume since they hold the card that says 'parent', you have one that says 'child'.

I overheard some lady in the gym last week giving out to a friend that once she got home she'd have to cook dinner, clean up afterwards, do laundry and put the kids to bed. That's not special - apart from putting the kids to bed thing I had to do the same things myself. It's not like she's a martyr. And presumably since she has two kids, with a fair idea of what to expect, she chose to have a second and can only blame one person for the consequences.

I take an amazing life saving drug I'm so grateful for. The difficulties I'm having trying to continue getting it during a pandemic is such a massive pain in my arse.

On, and another one that reaaaaally bugs me: inputted. Inputted is just wrong, the past tense (incl. the past participle) of put is put, not putted. Input literally means put in. People don't say putted in, so why do they say inputted? Grrr!

Unnecessary adjectives/adverbs/prepositions have been grinding my gears lately (most common in cookery).

"Let close out this case..." (Why not just close it?)
"Reduce down the sauce..." (I wasn't aware that reducing it up was an option)
"Fry off the onions..." (Off what? Why not just fry them?)
"Chase that up..." (Up what? A tree?)

:mad:

That's one positive of losing my job a couple of weeks ago, I haven't had to listen to any of those 'think box' type phrases in a good while

TA, dishes when I'm feeling lazy

Some complete piece of cat vomit stole my pen.

Why "verb" it, when you can "phrasal verb" it?

OH bought a vacuum cleaner with headlights on it. Now when I clean, I see dust I would not have otherwise seen. Could literally use it every day, there would still be dust and dirt illuminated by it. My life before was beautiful and now I will never have peace again.

Ignorance was bliss, in this case, wasn't it?

Apart from seeing all the dust, I now want this.
Who thought to put headlights on a hoover.
Though I can’t imagine the dust would bother me so much since I’m a lazy article. When i do hoover I go into intense mode and then don’t do it again for ages.

Everything I see about teams, orchestras etc getting back after covid and daily temperature checks , and yet we are told to isolate if we feel hot to touch on the chest / back and it doesn’t matter if our temp is ok on a thermometer .
Surely there should be someone sticking their hand up your jumper as a better diagnostic tool

It's even worse than that, I thought he said it was "keep cleaning *doze* hands".

That and the weird pronunciation radio voice overs use, the young trendy ones; "fordy gigs of dayda", "fordy-eight", "ledders" (letters) etc.

I have a Shark rechargeable vacuum with headlights and its great as long as you keep the filters clean.
I ignore the headlights mostly.

Clip about Bill Clinton on RTÉ news channel earlier, cannot believe how old he got! I still always visualise him as when he was the POTUS. (Sorry, can’t believe I wrote POTUS!)
But it also got me thinking how old I got too... fcuk!
That’s my TA this evening anyway!

People who look for half days but who don't know when to finish up.

If you work 9.00am - 5.00pm with an hour off for lunch, then you should finish up at 12.30pm on your half day. Not 1.00pm.
