Yeah, what's this fascination with 'pulled pork' lately? Every bloody menu I look at it's "pulled pork this, pulled pork that", dumb fcuks couldn't even tell the difference between a baby beetroot and a horseradish (one was offered on the menu, one was definitely not!), but all it is, is just shredded pork?
Where did this idea come from that it's somehow special? What next, pulled beef? I thought I was in for something special, it was like something I'd give my granny who has no teeth to help her digest it.
Pretentious load a' bollocks

People in winter coats. Ok, we know that weather has gotten quite dull and it looks like the summer's over but is it really necessary to wear a WINTER coat!? The same goes for those, who wear flip-flops in the middle of a winter when it actually is bloody freezing because the sun happens to shine.
I was thinking this morning I'd have loved to be wearing my winter coat

I am very much looking forward to wearing my winter boots and knitted dresses and skirts and scarves and woolly hats (love hats to no end!) and gloves... being all snugly and warm, but not just yet. It's just the end of August, let's enjoy the autumn first! :P Then it's time for hot whiskeys and mulled wine... :rolleyes:0 -

Dying for a bowl of cornflakes right now with a splash of milk and a banana but I'll just go put on the rice cooker again. 0 -

I work in an office where people constantly bring in cake, sweets, chocolate and biscuits and leave them out for everyone to share. I don't partake because I'm currently in the health and fitness phase of my yo-yo cycle. But sometimes people will practically ram it down my throat.
"Sure it's only an hour until lunch, I'll pass on the cake thanks," but that's not good enough for them.
"Ah go on!"
"Sure you can have a little bit and still eat your lunch."
"Why do you never eat cake?"
No! Jesus, leave me alone!0 -

I am sure she would be delighted with the company, it means she does not have to listen to me moaning about trivial things

One of my really close friends lives in Toronto. Obviously because he lives so far away, I don't really see him a lot, but he's come here, I've been there and we FaceTime a lot. We used to talk every single day, for years. But then he got married, his wife is a paranoid lunatic and even though nothing has ever happened between us, he's still afraid to tell her were friends or introduce us. Sometimes when he's drunk he'll think up mad schemes, ways to introduce us without her getting irrational. But that hasn't happened yet, so now the only time we talk is when she's not around.
So, he rang me in the middle of the night on Monday night, I was jet lagged but still woke up and answered and talked to him, until 8am my time, because he had to go to bed for work. He promised he'd ring me that evening, straight after work at 7. That's 12 my time. He didn't call but text me at 1, telling me he got caught up doing something and he'd call me when he was free.
I was so mad, irrationally because really, it's no big deal or least it shouldn't be. I text him back telling him not to bother, I was going to bed and goodnight. He knows me better than to argue with me when I'm mad so he left it.
Now I'm trivially annoyed, at him for telling me a time, having me really excited the entire day for it, then just blowing me off. And I'm annoyed at myself, because I know real life gets in the way, and I know his wife is back tomorrow and I've wasted an entire day throwing a tantrum, and if we don't get to talk today/tonight that's it until new year.
:eek: You do realise how suspicious that sounds right
I don't think anyone would be thrilled about their spouse sneaking around making secret phone calls etc to a member of the opposite sex, no matter how good a 'friend' they were. If he has to lie to her there's something seriously dodgy going on with him, not her. 0 -

But there isn't at all. I've known him about 8 years, and she's very very irrational. She screens his Facebook friends, reads his texts and emails, she's completely paranoid and doesn't trust him an inch.
In the 8 years we've been friends, he's never once been inappropriate with me, or sleazy. I know how bad it sounds but honestly, he hasn't done anything wrong and he knows if she knew about me, we wouldn't be allowed to be friends anymore. On Monday night, when I told him I was in bed next to my boyfriend when he called, he was worried he was getting me into trouble. He found it really hard to believe that R wouldn't care who I was friends with, and was surprised he wasn't a secret too.
He's a great friend. Obviously I wish I could talk to him whenever but obviously I can't, since she checks everything.0 -
