Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot.
Has anyone heard this? Over 100m views on youtube.
It's a sequence of noises and strange sounds. Is this what counts as music these days? I fear for the yoof, innit.

Ya just don't get our vibe brah.

(That might be sh**e that btw, I have greying hair and dodgy joints so my "yoof" credentials are back in the 80s!)

I was heating my car this morning and had my slippers on, as I was leaning in to turn the dials my slipper fell off and I stood on the cold, wet ground.. uhhhhh. I have a phobia of having my bare feet on the floor never mind dirty outside.

I also hate my outfit today and I'm annoyed about that. And then I'm annoyed that I'm annoyed about such a stupid thing.

There was no coffee left in the house this morning. Had to have tea on the drive to work. I'm a fan of tea, but there is just something wrong with drinking it while driving.

Cup drainers! The people who insist on drinking every last drop from the cup!

Getting up early for work , to walk a mile to the Royal Mail delivery office in the rain to pick up a secret santa gift for work colleague. Why didn't the postman just leave it with the neighbour like they always do!

Yep. You ticked the trivial requirement anyway.

To counter, people who put takeaway coffee cups in office bins with coffee left in them. Nothing like a plastic bag being removed and coffee dripping out of it across the floor to give the office a professional image.

A few weeks ago, my stupid, irritating, rage-inducing coworker threw a strop when I gave her instructions on how to do a task, basically because she doesn't want to do it. However, it's part of both of our jobs so she doesn't have a choice. Fastforward to today and it turns out she has been doing said task wrong, "oh sure I didn't even know that". I gave her typed up email instructions on how to do the task. In addition, there is typed instructions on each page she has to fill in, telling her where they should be sent. "oh sure I didn't even know that" - seriously? It's like something a child does, does a bad job on the dishes so they won't be asked again. Eh this is real life, this is your job, just fucking do it.

Sabre0001 · 13-12-2017 10:53AM

Umbrella kept getting flipped inside out this morning, no matter which way I had it pointed! Stupid rain and swirly wind!

No, not really. The entire point is that it's a joke song parodying a lot of vapid mainstream hip-hop. The guy who wrote it is a comedian, not a musician, and he's playing a character like Borat or Ali G. I mean the chorus of the song is that the guy is bragging about never getting too hot to take off his coat.

I've no sympathy for you. Slippers on the 13th December?
They'll be soaked by the time you get to work and if you cycle or use public transport, your feet will be cold. Plus, it's hard to match them with anything so I'm not surprised you hate your outfit.

Saw one girl recently ploughing through Henry Street with the head down in her phone. She proceeded to hit the bin. Phone went flying. Tears began and she started wailing ... "aw no not another bleeding phone screen smashed - ffs"
I'd be lying if I said I didnt laugh as I passed her :pac:

TA at myself for being in such bad form this week. I should be on top of the world but I'm down in the dumps

js35 · 13-12-2017 11:54AM

Ta’d at the 1 feckin sock on the stairs 2 mins after I start the wash

CrowdedHouse · 13-12-2017 12:08PM

The state of my car after the recent weather, presumably from the slush and grit etc.

I haven't a notion of washing it though, I wouldn't wash it myself and wouldn't expect anyone else to wash it either in this weather.

People who push the front of the pram off the footpath preparing to cross the road before the traffic has come to a stop and/or they have a green man so the 2 front wheels and their darling child's 2 feet are dangling out on the road. So safe.

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON! The "If I refuse to learn how to do it, then I won't have to" brigade makes me completely furious!!! They even refuse to take notes when you're explaining it to them, or won't read the step-by-step, very detailed instructions they're given. :mad::mad::mad:

My mam wanted a penguin when she was a kid!

Got her an adopted one when she was 50, was adorable to see !!!!!

Rogueish · 13-12-2017 04:30PM

I'm at work.... sick...... on a long shift. I just want to curl up into a teeny tiny ball and sleep these fluey aches and pains away.

Preferably at home in my own comfy bed with the electric blanket on..... But that's another T/A altogether.

I also need paracetamol. There's a chemist next door but I'm too ill (lazy) to go out in the cold and rain to get it. Waaaaah!

SusieBlue · 13-12-2017 04:37PM

Genuinely sweating at the thoughts of having to come up with a suitable Secret Santa gift by Friday morning. I procrastinated on this way too long

Lorelli! · 13-12-2017 04:49PM

Mandarin oranges. They are always hit and miss. Just had two there. One was gorgeous, the other one was horrible.

Shopping trolleys too.
TA when two shoppers with trolleys stop to blab and block the aisle. Double TA when you say 'sorry' to get past and they give you a big dirty look.

PeterParker957 · 13-12-2017 05:04PM

Going for a quiet after work beer on way home and finding the once a year drinkers are in, complete with loud voices and "comedy" reinbeer antlers.

Not The Annoyingly Trivial Things-Bitches be cray cray week.
