    I'm still trying to get my head around the group discount on the vagina balls OldNotWise posted the other day. A pack of marble jacks would do the same job and you can get them in any pound shop!

    The only thing is the clinking noise and you'd hear her coming, like a cowbell :D

    *clink clink clink* :pac:

    I made a chocolate cake with chocolate butter icing and little chocolate pieces on top of that today. The whole house smells like a chocolate factory. Won't be eating any for a few weeks, even the word 'chocolate' turns my stomach upside down :mad:

    I did that last Easter. Made an enormous triple layer chocolate cake with chocolate butter icing, encircled the exterior of the cake with flakes and covered the top with whipped fresh cream and chocolate buttons. I couldn't even look at chocolate til Christmas.

    I totally understand.
    I bake quite often, usually once a week at least but I don't really eat it. Won't be touching anything sweet in a hurry :pac:

Next thing 2 bints wanting to acquaint us with their lord God and personal saviour started banging on the front door. One of these days I'm going to acquaint one of their asses with my foot. 2nd time this week someones tried to talk to me about God:mad:

    When people get the words of songs wrong.

    Before the internet, it would irritate me beyond belief when I would fork out for an album and they didn't include the lyrics in the album booklet. Instead there would be a load of pictures of the artist/band with numerous thanks to the people who made it possible. It really used to wind me up. Some artists/groups have terrible diction so it was hard to learn the lyrics from listening to them.

    Thankfully since the internet, I don't have to buy the whole album (which usually has about three good songs and a load of filler) and I can find the lyrics online.

    Trivial things that used to annoy me from the 80's/90's: When you were taping a song from the radio (it wasn't called piracy in those days :P) and the DJ would ruin your recording by either talking through the intro or over the ending of the song.

    It was the 70s for me and I hated that.

    Not so trivial, but men who bully women. I use 'men' in the loosest possible terms as I don't think any man who bullies a woman is a true man. My husband and I were in a shopping centre this afternoon. A young couple, aged somewhere between 19 and very early 20's were walking towards us and he was shouting at her repeatedly.

    She was tensed up and walking about a metre away from him while he kept shouting 'you don't fcuking listen, do you? Do you, do you? We could see that he wanted her to say no. From her body language it looked like she was used to it, and he clearly had no problem being loudly verbally abusive to her in a crowded public place.

    An absolute piece of sh*t. We wanted to say something but I was afraid we'd make things worse and that she'd end up getting beaten afterwards:mad::( If I were a guy and I had a male friend or relative like him I would knock him on his arse if I ever saw something like that.

    People who manage to barge against you, even though there is loads of room. I was in a coffee shop a few weeks ago, and the woman ahead of me, after she paid, turned and walked heavily against me. It wasn't a case of me standing on her heels, (that happens to be one of my own pet hates). The place was all but empty, so it wasn't a case that she couldn't help jostling a bit. Weird.
    I was too surprised at the time to say anything.

    Jebus, this happened to me again this week. I was in Tesco, Maynooth, huge empty aisles, two Tesco employees, in suits, came by, one jostled me heavily, said sorry airily, and kept going. FFS!

    I don't know what TTTAYP1 means but if you mean this Canadianwoman (below) that is me. I couldn't get my old account here reopened when I wanted to come back. The powers that be told me I would need to make a new account.

    People closing their accounts, it's hard to keep track of you all unless you're Ruu. I'm going to register as the next Ruu number, where is your god now Ruu?

    I hate it when a good tv series ends. I was really enjoying True Detective. But never mind, Penny Dreadful is starting next month. Can't beat a bit of gothic horror and kinky rumpy pumpy:D

    Those ads on the telly where they tell you not to feed your kids too much or they will grow obese. When the lean kids turn into fat kids, is this just some clever bit of digital magic, or are the fat kids real kids ? I'd really like to know ... bugs me no end
