I left a bottle of beer in the freezer and it exploded everywhere. I'm not annoyed I've to clean the freezer, I'm annoyed I destroyed a perfectly good beer.
Maybe I could make alco-slushies out of the erupted beery ice..hmmm

That bloody Virgin Media ad on the radio about the lad who’s the fastest in the world at making sausages

Ironically the ad seems to go for about 3 mins

Such utter scutter for an ad, what the hell has it do with anything

Their next ad will probably feature the person who can wipe their hole the fastest

People who jam the printer in work and walk away leaving for someone else to sort

People should least have an attempt and if they cannot do it ask for help

A TA I could do something about, but don't.

I part my hair on the right. Every time I go to my barber, he does a great job cutting my hair, but at the end he brushes it all back like Christopher Walken. I've thick hair, and he meticulously sets it with a hairdryer and gel and sprays and all sorts. He's a gruff Iraqi, and I can never bring myself to tell him not to. So I thank him, and then wait until I'm around the corner and out of sight to quickly claw my hair back into its rightful parted state. Every time it happens, I think "why can't I just tell him to part it on the right?", but I never do.

I know I could change barbers, but I like him. He's no nonsense and no chat. Went to a guy before, looking for a regular cut. It was the very end of the day, so he locked the door once he started on me. He wouldn't stop talking, and it turned out that he specialised in stupid shaved designs, and so was very popular with Travellers. Spend half the time telling me about various fights he'd been in, jumping around behind me with the scissors in his hand, shadow boxing and ducking and diving. He did the cut fine, parting and all, but it was a pretty traumatic experience - locked in on my own with a babbling psychopath armed with a scissors - so I went back to my man Mohammad, imperfections and all.

One day in there, I was getting cut by his (Irish female) assistant. She's grand, chats a bit, but not too much. Mohammad comes over laughing to show us something on his phone - the first time I've ever seen him animated about anything in all the years I've been going to him. Turns out it was a video from Russia's version of "Britain's Got Talent", of a guy doing a painting with his cock. Neither of us needed to see that.

I should probably just let my hair grow long.

Then when you fix it, it starts spooling 20 million pages, the paper then runs out so you've to go to stationary cupboard for more paper, replenish the paper and your left waiting for ages while everyone else's cr*p prints off ahead of yours.

Depending on my humour I would sometimes deliver the first printed email to the offending printer blocker.. "here's your email you sent to print 6 hrs ago and never bothered your arse sorting it.." or words to that effect.

Gotta say, not missing the office

My car is technically due a service this month. I was hoping to not service it for a few more months as the whole fuel injection system was replaced in January that cost a fortune and I'm broke.

Got into the car this morning only to be greeted with that annoying little ding of a warning message on the dash "oil change needed" this is well beyond my skill set so off for a service she shall go. Grrrrrr

People parking in ‘Parent & Child’ spots who don’t have kids, at least not with them.

Also, those who don’t bring their trolley back to a trolley “bay”.

Could you just throw a litre, or half a litre, of oil into it? My old car used to burn through oil so I’d topping it up every few months.

Check online what the best oil for your car’s make and model if you do go down that route. Might be worth asking someone in the “Motors” forum first.

You'd be ok if you left it a month. You can probably also reset the warning with button press/key turn combination if you look it up for the model of your car. Don't throw oil into it unless it's low - the system that tells you a service is needed is only based on miles/duration - it's not checking the oil level or the state of it.

That said, I have had the pleasure of suffering catastrophic engine failure on the motorway due to oil loss. A piston literally rupturing a hole right through the engine block when you're overtaking at 140km/h, and the subsequent engine replacement, was quite the TA. So maybe don't listen to me.

Nope I could not cars are not my thing.

I miss my old car, 15 yrs and not a warning light to be seen.

I did a quick Google and says you're usually good for about 500 miles after message appears... I won't be testing that... I'll get her serviced in a week or two, the pollen filters always need replacing anyway... Just without the warning I'd continue along in ignorance

TA that I've received a notification of a second "check in" to parcel motel, when I was only expecting one today. Guaranteed it'll be a few days before they're available to collect so my curiosity will remain unsatisfied :mad:

Sorry, but what does TA mean???

Doorbells.........

............ On TV advertisements that is

There's a fair few of them atm, and they all sound like the real thing...

I can only imagine my consternation if I had been 'forewarned' of this onslaught on my amygdala ; but I still would have been unprepared for the harsh reality :pac:

Usually if someone's calling around I know beforehand - 'unsolicited' callers rarely bring good cheer or good news... :mad: First few times I heard them I had to rewind telly to confirm the 'source' of these very 'generic' sounding doorbells - fuqres couldn't even make them sound old-school or different to the 'real thing' - baxtards :mad:

A mixture of bloody trepidation, paranoia, and that 'sinking feeling' I still get to this day hearing that 'ding dong' from gogglebox ; even a few weeks on - i'll never get 'immune' to those fuppin chimes...

Some might say it's a conspiracy to get folk all unsettled and riled up; now that more and more of us are stuck indoors for longer durations... I'd have to agree with them :pac:

I could listen to the radio I suppose, but that's generally a non-runner, because if their not on about the latest 'C' , it's the bloody other depressing one..

TA is I forgot what I was going to post (

Church on Tuesday

Trying to buy a 2nd hand blu ray player off the minefield that is Facebook Marketplace.

Like, I'm offering you money for an ad you willingly put up, stop ****ing around and arrange the sell!

Why do they keep making celebrity Gogglebox?
Make it with the normal people again, they are far funnier and more likeable and entertaining than the celebs.

I absolutely love Gogglebox, I love both the normal and celebrity ones but I agree the normal one is better.

TA I swore that I would be productive this weekend but I'm awake since 6.30am,I've had 3 coffees and I'm still in the leaba, I'd love to be a morning person.

Giles Brandreth, and Sean Ryder and Bez are about the only ones I like from the celebs. The rest are just plain boring or quite unlikeable.

I love Gary and Roman, Denise is annoying imo,I love Giles/Mary and Jenny/Lee on the normal one,its one of the very few programmes that genuinely makes me laugh out loud.

I used to be a morning person until I had kids. I'd happily get up and Potter around.

Now I think the eldest has a sensor on my eyes, as soon as I open an eye all I hear is "mammy" that could be at 6,7 or 8....cant be dealing with kids at 6 or 7 so I now stay firmly buried under the duvet.

I really warmed to roman on "I'm a celeb" first time I watched that... I was a huge hills fan so tuning in for jenner tbh.

I think roman has a really warm sense of humour.

Giles and Mary are hilarious, I'd have murdered him at this stage

Absolutely adored June and Leon.

The brother and sister kinda freak me out, they are abit "too close"

Love the Ryan's on the Irish one... The mum and sons seem to have such a lovely relationship.

Tell me about it, her and her husband are so annoying on it. Why haven't they dropped them yet? Laura Whitmore and her fella are the exact same as them.

Jenny and Lee are the funniest without a doubt and it is unintentional with Jenny half the time I think I love hearing what weirdness Giles will come out with as well.

The brother and sister relationship is very weird, I thought they were a couple for ages. The Ryans are great, I do love Tadgh and granny ,typical granny and grandson.

Absolutely. There's no entertainment in two people bickering. And the way the husband / partner sits trivially annoys me. He must be trying for the widespread legs Olympic medal or something. :rolleyes:
