    Getting my hair cut and having tiny hairs in my bra for the day.

    Having to do normal human things that prevent me from spending every minute of my day with my dogs.

    Can't say I've experienced the first but with you on the second.

    Similar to hairs I had to cut a tag off the neck of a sweatshirt this morning that was driving me potty. For some reason it wasn't sewn on with normal thread but some kind of catgut type thread that made it feel that I was being jabbed by a needle.

    The young five and six year olds in my area have got into this new game of screaming at each other at the tops of their voices to see who lasts the longest or does the loudest scream, happens just out of the blue scaring the bejaysus out of me ,is this fad going to last all summer?..........I wish we had thought of that game when we were growing up , sounds like great craic.

    ......on second thoughts the priests probably banned that game when I was growing up .

    I hope money is involved for the kids.

    Giving your order in a Deli, only to find the staff member can't recall most of the ingredients some 8 seconds later.

    It'd never work Oops because you'd get some inconsiderate thicko who would leave the excess butter on the edge of the tub, mix corn kernels in with the mayonnaise, and worst of all handling the meat with their grubby, unwashed hands!

    HACCP standards mean nothing to some people!

    I think it might be related to the 'spornosexual' thread. I've noticed a trend among a lot of lads in their 20's to have their dad's or the OH's father around to do things like the gardening or DIY. At first I thought it might be laziness or lack of knowledge on how to do basic tasks around the house, most men I know would feel a bit emasculated having the OH's dad do stuff around the house that they should be doing.

    But having seen the Spornosexual thread I think it's probably because what with having to spend a minimum hour to 2 hours preening themselves before leaving the house that they just don't have time to be well, 'men' I suppose. They can drink as much creatine and pump as much iron as they like but I prefer a man in jeans and converse, with a slight leaning towards a middle age build, but who can put up a curtain pole and do practical things like paint the kitchen:D

    I think there actually is one. I don't know how they got people to pay for it, but it exists

    Indeed. Can you imagine a hipster type with his Connor Mac Gregor beard being good for anything other than blogging?

    His skinny jeans and man bag would get in the way of anything practical he attempted to do.

    Having just spent 2 hours with my husband unclogging a blockage in our waste pipe where it enters the septic tank I am glad there are no spornosexuals in this house!
    On the other hand, I got my hair done earlier and was feeling gorgeous and then I saw what's in the septic tank - nothing like it to make you realise we are all the same.

    Yeah, it drives me nuts. I know some people in real life who are really levelheaded etc but when it comes to Facebook they turn into complete gullible eejits.

    Before we had Facebook, I had a friend who was cluttering up my email with those ridiculously stupid chain letter that said if you didn't pass it on to ten people within a day you would die or something equally stupid. I asked her to stop sending them to me and she said she was sorry but she felt like she had to pass them on :rolleyes:

    They're the new name for... well, I'm not sure any more, but here's a recent AH thread which I couldn't bring myself even to click on the video in the OP. I only went searching after Pumpkins mentioned it, sorry I did now, damned curiosity! :(

    I saw the thread you're on about, then today there was an article in the paper on them. It's hard to keep track of the various lingo.

    Talked into going to a so called 'carvery' lunch yesterday , usually the smell is enough to make me gag , everyone looking at you as if you've two heads when you say you don't want gravy on your food , then everyone saying " that looks very dry " , " that's ok I'll have my cremated tasteless meat dry if that's ok with you. You can have your cremated tasteless meat gloopy and tasteless if you want ".
