    My wife climaxes too quickly. Now that is not such a bad thing as I can then fill my boots with no guilt or pressure but she is out for the count. She is not able for Round 2 or 3..:(

    There’s always that one person that when you see their name flash on the phone screen, a dark cloud descends and they drain the life out of you.

    Getting the hair cut in my usual spot earlier. Doesn't have a card machine and has always been €12 since I started going there. So took €10 out of the ATM on the way and had just enough change in the car to make up the difference for the exact fare.

    But they have since increased their price by a euro, meaning I had to go to the ATM all over again. Pain in the hole

    Last time I looked at one in Limerick there was lots of 70s veneered furniture with prices like they were capitalising on the retro trend, and a full polar bear skin (1,000 euro, plus ).

    They used be called second hand shops, sold things fit for a skip and smelled of must and mould.
    Now they still smell the same but they're "vintage shops" with daft prices for what is essentially junk.

    Made my girlfriend her favourite dish, beef wellington. Decided to be ultra romantic and use the leftover pastry to make love hearts on the top of it. But then when it came out of the oven, the hearts got distorted and looked like dicks.

    One night years ago I created a fake LinkedIn profile for voyeuristically looking at peoples profiles whom I know, without letting them knowing it’s me being nosy. Anyway this profile had one Job posted in Linux IT, no education, no network contacts and recently it being getting bombarded most days with companies and agencies asking would you consider working for us, what’s your salary expectation etc, whilst my profile gets very little of this traction.

    Maybe it’s time to give Tony a Masters distinction from some prestigious University and have some wind up fun with this old pseudo creation.

    Fancied a cheeseburger from McDonald's today as I hadn't had one in ages.
    Decided to get the meal and although I enjoyed it, I now feel ****e.
    Urgh. And why do people add salt to the chips? They're very salty as they are!

    Also if your ordering McDonalds tell them you don't want salt on your chips if you dont really like it.

    McDonalds new straws are used once only for minutes and going through 4 million daily. Laudable as it is to get away from plastics, but shouldn’t Mc Donald’s and all other fast food stores be encouraging customers not to use a straw and have a social conscience for the environment.

    You might need one for slurping a milkshake, but can people not just tip their cups of Coke/Fanta the normal way that’s done 99.9% of the time anyway at home. Every little step really helps.

    The fact that it’s 9.40 on what should be a quiet warm Sunday night and some absolute cûnt of a neighbor has their hedge trimmer or strimmer on the go. I’m sure folks are right about now putting kids into bed before school in the morning, rest of us relaxing, windows open and having to listen to this cûnt. Good thing the light is fading fast so they might hit something solid, have it bounce back, split their face open. Cûnts !!!

    My family back home being as thick as planks. I'm unemployed atm and Job search is starting to take off, I start getting interviews and this is a big deal for me and my self esteem after being at home with the children for almost 3 years.
    My son goes to visit my family and his other grandparents every summer and this year it's on my dad to plan this, who is a walking disaster when it comes to planning.

    Now he offered to pay flights for me and my daughter too so we could join for two weeks... In 5 weeks time. This is really so not a good time right now to go abroad, nevermind for two full weeks.
    Also my husband is supposed to stay at home and work while I'm living the life? Sorry not happening.

    Anyway, I tried to explain it to my dad and sister that it really is not a good time for me to go right now and why. Instead of being understanding and somewhat supportive, they try guilt me with every argument under the sun and started sending passive aggressive messages in the family WhatsApp group.

    So disappointed how they can't get their head around the fact that I have commitments too and am not available 24/7 to jump on the next plane.

    Unfortunately, he was a completely horrid person, though, and his looks matched his personality. But his voice? Swoon...

    Memo to self: next time you attempt to make a pseudo-mayonnaise with soy milk, don't just trust the fact that the front of the pack doesn't say "vanilla flavour". READ. THE. ACTUAL. INGREDIENTS!!! Vanilla-garlic-balsamic vinegar isn't a good combination. :/
