    Skype is closing down in May. I have to look for an ethical, secure, privacy-oriented, non-Whatsapp alternative. Grrr.

    The OH is sick and grumpy with Norovirus at the moment. I’m walking on eggshells at home in order to avoid getting chewed out for any minor transgressions.

    My OH is "too sick" to watch the new episode of Severance but surprisingly not the new Bridget Jones movie, so I've to wait until tomorrow to watch it.

    Have you tried one of those corks that they use for Prosecco

    Knew a Dude who had a problem similar to yours who solved it with a Cork lightly coated in vaseline pressed firmly into the hounds hoop.

    He did mention it was a Labrador so the insertion site was relatively large...

    TA'd there is a woman I used to know, kinda, about 20 years ago. Friend of a group of friends kinda deal. We've been 'friends' on FB for years. She's mid 40s now.

    She messaged me a few times on FB just to say hi etc. No biggie. We'd chit chat a bit. Inevitably talk about music. Grand. Then somehow she convinced me to give her my number for Whatsapp. That was my first mistake.

    FF to now times and she gets all hyped up on bag and calls me (among others around the world) at all hours, no care for time zones (she's in Dub, I'm in Canada). I'm at the ignore stage now but the few times I did engage, she would literally speak not stop for over an hour. Just pure waffle. Stories about when she was growing up, stories about people she knows who are 'on bag' worse that her etc.

    It's a head wreck and I need to cut her off.

    I had a TA here a while ago about my favourite restaurant abruptly shutting down. Well its re-opening under new management shortly, and every update they have on FB, either announcing the news or looking for staff or whatever, is hijacked by women commentating negatively.

    'Why aren't ye honouring vouchers?'.

    'Why aren't you keeping the original staff on?'

    'I heard there is a new chef from OTHER RESTAURANT'.

    That sort of shite.

    And nearly every single one are from Irish women of a certain age-group. Nothing better to be doing.

    Gaelic football refereeing, the absolute state of it these days.

    Watching Dubs vs Meath ladies and a plethora of mistakes by this fella. One shocker 10 mins ago a Meath player stops Rowe by legitimately putting her in a chokehold while she advances in on goal. He instead of giving Dublin a free in, blows for a Meath free out as he thinks Rowe over carries 👀. She did over carry, breaking out from a player trying to actually choke her WWE style…only short of putting her in a choke slam actually..Beyond difficult to enjoy sport with that level of incompetence. You’d wonder. 😏

    Sliced bread. Why can't they make the slices the same size. My Hovis Granary loaf always has varying slice sizes. At worst three thin slices are the same thickness and two thick slices.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Dropbox have somehow been scamming me out of 11.99 a month for the past four months and I just spotted it today.

    No idea how they managed to do this as I dont have a Dropbox account and my card details aren't on Google play (where the charge is coming from) but it seems this shower of sh*tbags are doing this all over the place if online search is to be believed.

    It coincides and with me changing mobile provider as the first charge happened a week after I moved so gonna check that out, but I'm going to chase the scumbags down to the ends of the earth on this.

    Kudos to the girl in AIB fraud dept who told me how to check where this neferious charge was coming from.

    I was doing this quiz thing.

    Simple question

    "What does AI mean?"

    The bogger in me answered Artificial Insemination.

    For a very long time AI meant Artificial Insemination - by the bull on the bowler hat.

    That must be Nigel with the brie...


    The packet of noodles that used to have six nests has changed to four larger nests. Two of the old ones were just right for one person but now one is not enough and two are too many.

    cooked two hotdogs for dinner, in the process of putting the second one in the hot dog roll I somehow, completely inexplicably dropped the hotdog on the kitchen floor. 😵‍💫

    I have no more hot dogs. And with the other one hot and plated up I haven’t the time to start preparing something else. So my dinner ends up being a chav type dinner consisting of one delicious nicely garnished hot dog and King cheese and onion crisps. For fûcks sake 🤪

    I bought 2 packets of nuts . 1 dry roasted 1, what I thought were salted but they're salt and vinegar . I love S&V for crisps but this is just wrong.

    The use of the word tactical for any bit of tat on Amazon (etc) that is made of camouflage material or is green in colour.
