When you politely and out of genuine interest ask a person with an unfamiliar 'as gaeilge ' surname , like 'ni macnatasamh ' or something similar , "what's that in English out of interest?" they always say in a deadpan way "there's no English for that " and take offence , ah lighten up you gaeilgor fascist nut job , no wonder none of us speak it if you've got that kind of attitude about it !
You should ask him what he does for a living, then assume a regal bearing and say, "I hereby rename you, Tinker!"

Place a colander in the sink. Pour cereal into colander. Shake until all the offending bits land in the sink. Now you can enjoy the last of your cereal without all the mush.reap-a-rat wrote: »The dusty useless crumbs at the end of the cereal. There's still half a bowl worth of good flakes but all that comes out is the bloody grit

As soon as you finish making the eggs, put a load of fairy liquid and hot water into the saucepan. Whenever you go to clean it, it won't be that bad.Deleted User wrote: »I really hate cleaning a saucepan after making scrambled eggs.
I've gotten to the stage where I now base me decision to have scrambled eggs on whether or not I could be bothered to clean the saucepan afterwards.
I'm a disgrace.
People who make scrambled eggs in the microwave. It's just gross. It might be quicker but it does not taste the same.0 -

I did think of that. I'd love a one-step solution though. Like a reverse-colander, that keeps the crap and puts the lovely big flakes into the bowl. But that's fairly impossible. So I'll just continue to be annoyed

When I'm on my dirty week of shame and I go to the chemist to get some Solpadeine and I'm made to feel like a junkie trying to score.
Posters with ambiguous usernames...
(Always thought you were a guy! And yes, it only occurs to me now that a cow is female, but a cow called Paddy?)
Somewhat related anyway, it's THERMAL underwear, not "TERMINAL" underwear! It's warm, but it's not going to kill you! :pac:0 -
Years ago I moved over to London to live with my sister. Her group of friends all had silly names for themselves, all ending in Cow such as Mad Cow, Laughing Cow etc. Being fresh off the boat and with a thick accent, I got called Paddy Cow. As we got older the other names were forgotton but Paddy Cow always stuck with me. I like it and generally use it as a username.Posters with ambiguous usernames...

It being assumed that as a woman, I couldn't possibly ride a motorbike.
Had to ring RAC earlier to get them to come pick my bike up to bring it to the dealership
Me: Hi I'm just ringing in relation to picking up a bike.
RAC man: Yes, can I have the reg?
Me: blah blah
RAC man: Are you ringing on behalf of the rider because unfortunately I will have to speak to the rider.
Me: I am the rider....
RAC man: Ooooooooooooooooooh, I don't get many women ringing about bikes hardeeharharhar
Me: (fake laugh so as not to piss off the RAC man but secretly seething)
I OWN 3 BIKES!!! I own more bikes than my husband does!!!0 -
