How obnoxious and self-righteous my router and wifi are!!

I have my router and wifi placed in the cabinet in the TV stand with all my other electronics like the cable box, Xbox, etc. because its a handy place to keep all the wires and connections.

Whenever I turn off the lights in the living room to watch a movie under the TV all I see is all the lights on router and wifi lighting up the whole fcuking room. I'm forced to turn them backwards and push them up against the back wall of the cabinet leaving a bunch of gammy wires on display instead.

I've worked in IT for 15 years and consider myself pretty tech savvy but I don't know nor care what the fcuk all those lights mean or represent. I know if the internet is not working as I can see it on my phone or laptop and if it is broken, all I do is plug out and plug it back in again. I don't need a Vegas style light show in my living room 24/7 for the odd occasion the internet isn't working.

Basically its any electronics that feel like they need to have bright LED lights on display whenever they are in use. You don't know how long it took me to find a humidifier for the bedroom that didn't light up the whole room all night. Hey humidifiers! How about ye fcukers just humidify the room quietly and discreetly in the corner, i don't need your life story.

Lol such a simple solution but I still hold my right to be outraged at the companies that build such needy electronics.

Walking out of Tesco with two heavy bags in each hand, I get an itchy nose. As I lift my hand up to scratch it, the handles went on the bag and everything fell to the floor. :rolleyes:
Then I couldn't find my car in the car park, I was walking around for ages trying to find it, before it dawned on me that I was confusing where I parked today with where I parked yesterday.

Usually the itchy nose thing happens when you're changing a nappy... still, I hope it wasn't the bag with the eggs!

On my phone I can't view a new page on a thread unless there are 3 posts(used to be 2),to say it is annoying me is an understatement as its driving me insane.Is it just me or what?

That happens to me on certain threads. Very annoying.

Since moving back into my old room at home, I've realised how small it is. My drawers are right next to my bed and I keep bashing my elbow on it. There is no where else in the room they can go so I'll have to get used to a permanently bruised elbow.

Was it a pick?

TA when things stupidly fall out of your hand even though you swear you had a good grip on it.

also that sense of shock when you stumble and nearly fall when walking down stairs/

TA queues in mcdonalds and crowds of people not even buying anything.

splashing out on a moment of indulgence and leaving myself nearly broke.

when someone is eating food they know( and you know) they dont like and then complain afterwards. dont eat it then, i could have!

Imagine spreading it slowly but firmly over a small hole in the roof of your shed as a temporary solution to a leak. Nothing kinkier than that.

Threw on some frozen pizzas for the kids and their friends tonight thinking to myself that I'll eat the scraps. Not a f*cking scrap in sight, the little gits are asking for more. :mad:

TA that I am fit for the bed now. But when I get into it later, I will be wide awake with 14,000,000 things going round my head.

Sonics2k · 10-08-2017 08:12PM

I woke up yesterday morning with theme song for Earthworm Jim stuck in my head, and now I'm really frustrated it's not available on Netflix because I think my kids are missing out on one of the greatest shows of all time.

That Lucozade ad on tv with all the d1ckheads.

Yer one at the end catching the bottle and opening it while mouthing "niiiiiiiiiice".

Pack of bastards.

Had a sinus infection, it decided to spread to my ears. In so much pain!

TA that I had to check, for the gazillionth time, how to spell Febrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrruary. There's an R in the spelling!

Not feeling as bad after reading this, though:

Usage
Note that February is spelled with an r following the Feb-. Precise speakers insist that this r should be pronounced, but this is not easy, and most people replace the r following Feb- with a y sound: Feb-yoo- rather than Feb-roo-. This is now becoming the accepted standard (OED: Febrrrruary)

PS: Gazillionth is an actual word!

If you can pronounce brewery it shouldn't be too difficult to pronounce February...

occasionally I have to borrow my mothers car. I usually end up forgetting I drove her car and start looking for my own. you start to get that sinking feeling like its stolen
eventually I remember after walking around the whole place only to find her car near the door. then I look like a fool

For some reason lately every time I go to the self service till in Tesco I get a "there is a problem with this item" message on at least three items I scan through.

I woke up with one line from Kate Bush's "This Woman's Work" playing over and over in my head this morning and I kept repeating it to myself when I was walking to work. The line is "make it go away". I don't know what I was dreaming about this morning but I must really have wanted it to go away!

Widdershins · 10-08-2017 11:08PM

I have mistaken stranger's (same model and colour) cars for my car in the past. I've been flummoxed when the driver's door wouldn't open

I had it for two weeks. Antibiotics and anti histamines, show it no mercy!

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound snotty, I only meant to say that brewery and February had a similar amount of vowels and Rs.
