    I read that as 'cake and boobs'.


    Was TA'd that I was not in the mod circle at that misread.

    They're all empty promises, Ted. They lure you in with promises, and then...

    People so pissed off about Black and Tans you would swear they fought them themselves.

    TA people who still use archaic terms like; Free Stater, West Brit, etc. esp when they weren't even a twinkle in their Daddy's eye when the Troubles were in full swing.

    No. I don't think I'll ever get over Macho Grande. Those wounds run...pretty deep. :D

    People who still write messages in text speak despite the fact that it’s 2019 and there’s no need. Yes a decade ago it made sense when we had phones with character limits and so it was needed. But today it is not and it’s just annoying so please stop or I will smack your bottom!

    I bought some jelly babies for my 'sugar free day off' tomorrow but left them on my desk. Now they will be a constant temptation for the whole of next week.

    Are they like Haribo sugar free gummi bears ?

    RTÉ changing the news time again. Leave it at 9pm, or 8pm or 8.30pm, or 8:45 or whatever every night. Consistency. It would be nice to know it's there at the same time each night and not at the scheduling whims of reality show rubbish, commercial sport, the Marty Whelan gambling show or whatever. Kick them off to RTÉ 2, or kick the news off there but whatever you decide leave the main evening news in the same place at the same time each night.

    Well, I suppose you just got another victim tonight for your viewing statistics for another programme - in tonight's case, the Eurovision - that you otherwise wouldn't have.

    SkyQ, I recorded Graham Norton and it missed the last few minutes just as the second person was on the red chair, the best f*ING part of the show.

    People who won't do anything for themselves or willing to learn. Very frustrating.

    We have multiple android tv boxes in the house that I share with wife and sister but you think of years of using these for iptv or steaming apps and still needing help to cast a video to a TV or how to watch something on Netflix they would have figured it out.

    Constantly calling me to turn on something or how to do X....

    Asking how to do X or Y

    You think they ever ever learnt from the 1000th time I've shown them or got them to learn themselves.

    Mind you they are 26 and 22 Years old.

    Spend all day scrolling instagram but won't learn other basic technology.
