More foot photos on FB. This time, bare and extremely mud-caked. Lower legs crossed, lying on a blanket, surrounded by gurning ravers, captioned: At 'X' ''festie''. Absolutely slathered in filth.

Oh, gag.

In wikipedia, if you are on a page and click on an image, the image opens in a kind of pop-up, and when you later go back out of that page, the pop-up opens again.

The squeaky sound my runners make on the floor in Tesco. I saw a woman wearing similar runners and her ones weren't squeaking

I have these shoes that when they get wet I sound like a duck squelching my way around the place.

TA getting feck-all done. I felt very drowsy since I woke up at 6am. Now it's turned into room spinning dizziness and I feel fragile and useless.

Covering reception because the receptionist went home sick. I am absolutely dying to pee but there is no one here to cover me right now. Let's hope I don't wet myself :pac:

TA of being the Receptionist it's hard to get a loo break

How long does it take to effect that task

3 mins.. 4 mins.

Stand up, complete the task, come back, voila!

Everything back to normal.... And you are good for another hour or two.

I couldn't leave reception unattended as someone needs to be there to answer the phones and greet people at all times during opening hours. I could only do that when someone was free to cover reception for me while I'm gone.

Sign on desk. ""BACK IN 5 minutes- taking a piss"

Everyone would understand

TA'd at people who use "sky plus" as a verb e.g. "I didn't see the game but I Skyplussed it for later." There's a perfectly good, non-proprietary name for that which means the exact same thing and it's "record" e.g. "I recorded the game"

And what about the people ringing? It's the office protocol, I can't decide to put up a sign and feck off, my boss would not be pleased. I'm not engaging with you anymore about this.

I'm good with that.

When you let someone pull out of a parking space, and only then do they decide to put their seat belt on/adjust their mirror/seat/position, all while driving at 3 km/h

So they should drive at 50 km/h in a car park?

Still waiting for inspiration to strike.

There is a bakery opening up beside my house. I am happy but also sad because I'm going to be fat as a fool.

Mod-Brendan Bendar, do not post in this thread again. Not posting TA's

Surreptitious · 12-06-2017 09:57PM

I feel sad

*That's my TA.

Samsgirl · 12-06-2017 10:42PM

In the changing room at the pool all by myself. One other lady comes in. At least 8 free changing benches and she plonks right in front of me.

Radio ads for financial services with legal disclaimers that are longer than the advert itself. "Terms and conditions apply". Seriously? Did they ever not apply to anything finance or insurance-ralated? Give me strength. I'm waiting for the rushed sotto-voce list to include "...a form may need to be filled in" or "...premiums must be paid for cover to be provided."

Bloody nonsense.

I was chatting to my neighbour yesterday evening and I'm not sure if she just wasn't listening to me or there was something in my hair because she kept staring at my head for most of the conversation! I noticed she does that alot

Reminds of an old boss who was the opposite and took eye contact to a new level. She'd call you into the office and glare at you across the desk. Even light hearted conversations felt like an interrogation. You couldn't concentrate when talking to her and didn't know where to look. It actually hurt to look at her!

Parking spaces are not limited to car parks.

TA: that I forget so many TA's. Everyday loads of TA's occur, and you're thinking "that would make a great post in the TA thread", and then you forget it.
It is only trivial after all!

ThinkProgress · 13-06-2017 07:51AM

When you're excited about something happening the following day, but as a result of said anticipation... you get a slightly less than perfect night's sleep!

Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but just a tad annoying!

There may come a point later today, when I'm like that puppy you see in those YouTube videos swaying from left to right, in a desperate (but ultimately futile) attempt to fight off mr sleepy head... lest I miss something fun! :P

Anything like this?

When you need to do something, normally fairly urgent, but your body tells you you need to wee and to make things worse it decides to drain every past drop of moisture out of you just to take a bit more time while you hear whatever you were ment to do fall apart and wonder where it all went wrong in your life.

Exactly...what's wrong with that??

Boom_Bap · 13-06-2017 11:16AM

Sitting on the couch last night, I says to myself:

"I better do that now before she gets home"

Stand up......can't for the life of me remember what it was I was supposed to do. I stood there for a minute or so and couldn't remember.

Sat down again and immediately remembered. The effort to get back up.

Jrop · 13-06-2017 11:27AM

TA when you walk into room and forget why you're there

Bredabe · 13-06-2017 11:29AM

Mention during a routine visit to Dr that my right knee is sore again, he glances at me and says "well, you know that you're putting too much pressure on your joints". Well this is only one and it's been like this from when I was a child and skinny.

Is what is perceived as "Fat" the diagnosis for everything now?
