    Whats wrong with period talk? I was talking to 2 of my male friends today about it. But they're junior doctors and I have a hormone problem at the moment.

    So maybe it's different. :P

    They got quite graphic in comparing their moon cycles before and after childbirth, with age and thought I wouldn't understand them.
    I've no problem with periods, I've seen things in my time, but these 2 were letting loose.

    Years ago watching an episode of "The Golden Girls" (yeah, I know) the old dear, who was supposed to about 90, was on a quiz show, the MC asks her to complete the saying "better late then...." and the aul one pipes up "pregnant":D

    Easiest solution Boom - I just keep walking and leave them talking. I can't hack people having in-depth conversations about their bodily functions, so rather than expect them to stop, I'll just keep walking...

    Unless of course walking away isn't an option and they have me cornered, then I'll just tell them straight out I don't need to hear about it! :pac:

    Haha! :D

    Ok I didn't mean it to sound like I would be rude about it, just if I'm downtown with my wife and she meets one of her friends and I sense they're gonna get into it, rather than stand there like a spare prick kinda listening in, I'll tell her I'll meet her in such and such a place when they're done :o

    With my mates I'm just more direct when they start talking about women stuff - "I don't wanna know! Keep it to yourself!". I know that's rude alright, but that's only after they continue and ignore the look on my face that says "Stop, please?" :(

    Yeah, actually I don't know what he was doing. He must have been shaking something. he had the binoculars with him and all.

    It must be hard being a full time mad bástard. :P

    I remember complaining to my mum about getting my period once, her response was 'it'd be worse if you didn't get it' :D

    That reminds me - I was getting dressed myself earlier and the shape of these new deodorant spray can tops I managed to spray a load of deodorant into the palm of my hand rather than under my arm!

    Had the damn can turned around the wrong way :o

    It wasn't the aul one (who was 80 and played by a 60 year old), it was actually the youngest one of all of them, who was meant to be mid-50s. :pac:

    Unrealistic pricing. We want to restain the cat kennel and front gate, so we went to the hardware shop and saw a lovely reddish colour. All fine until we asked the price. 18 euro per litre. :eek: Yeah, we didn't buy that one. It's decking stain but for fecks sake who would even pay that:confused:
