Happened to me on the way in to work this morning, but I didn't try to cover it. I just let it happen - seems more dignified.

You have to jump up really quickly, shout "Ta-daa!" and do jazz-hands.

Our cat's not using his litter tray but he has to be pooing somewhere, I'll be very annoyed when I find out where he's doing them..

One of my colleagues is on a diet and keeps lecturing everyone on which food is good and what's bad, etc. Made a big show of not having any of the sweets that another colleague brought back from holidays. Going to put my headphones on now.

Yeah, and if you do that quickly enough, you can convince yourself it never happened. A bit like kicking Bishop Brennan up the arse

People not noticing that you are píssed with them. I'm currently not talking to the ball and chain. Do you think she's noticed? TF she has I feel like I should call to inform her that I am ignoring her....no wait...damn

I hate that. It's even worse when they know you're mad and ignoring them and still pretend like there's nothing wrong.

- Hey, how are you?
- yea, I'm fine..
- ok cool

OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY DIDN'T NOTICE THAT I'M ANNOYED!!!!!

Bloody women! :pac:

"Hey, how are you"
- "Fine."

If you get a full stop at the end of a sentence you know ****s going down.

Another trivial annoyance at parents not looking after their kids on footpaths here.

Was crossing the road in town earlier this morning and just as I was reaching the footpath at the far side of the road a girl no older than 3 had broken free from her (I assume) mother's grasp and was hightailing it unsupervised towards the road. I caught wind of it and as I didn't know either the child or mother didn't want to physically grab the child, but merely prevented her from running out on the road by standing in her way. Now I'm not generally one to seek out compliments in everyday life, but I would have appreciated even a slight acknowledgement of thanks from the mammy, not the total blank I did recieve from potentially saving her precious child's life (although that may be a slight over-reaction

)

Absolutely LOVE taking her at her word when she does this :pac:

Took about a decade but at least now I (more often than not) get a straight answer when I ask.

OldNotWIse · 04-11-2014 04:28PM

I caved and called. Now my ball and chain is being cool with me, presumably for being cool earlier. Wait...now I don't even know who is not talking to who

I very much deserve the claim over her, since she's the one acting the turd

"How am I ?, HOW AM I?, oh I am juuustt fine,

Also the speed at which 'Fine' is said is indicative of how pissed off someone is.:D

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 04-11-2014 05:27PM

And right. If I say right, chances are, I'm snappin!

I was looking at a dress online and the descriptions are ridiculous. It stated that the model was 5'9 wearing a size 8 dress, fine, I'm not sure I've ever been a size 8 but that's neither here nor there. Further in the description it said that the description of the dress was on a size 12 dress with measurements from the neckline to the hemline

What does that even mean. Does it mean that the size 8 model was wearing a size 12 dress that had been altered to fit her or what the actual fcuk. As it happens there were a lot of unforseen expenses that mean buying a new dress is going to have to wait for a while.:D

When you are browsing in a shop, say HMV or similar, and
the person a couple of feet away moves off, and someone stands where they were standing,
and they stare at you, at which point you realise, the the first person farted, and they second
person thinks it was you.

You then slink off and a new person takes your spot.........

OldNotWIse · 04-11-2014 05:42PM

When you are queuing (wtf is wrong with that sp??) and the person in front of you moves ahead. You too move ahead so that there is a comfortable distance between you. Then they move back

Or when you get into a lift on L3 going to L1, door closes, let one fly that you've been embracing for a while. Have a sniff to bask in the pungent glory. Pride rushes through your being.

The lift takes an un-anticipated stop at L2.

It doesn't matter who gets in, but the journey from L2 to L1 feels like a long long time.
There is also the awkward half head turn and little shuffle from the person that has got in once the doors have closed when they take their second whiff and start piecing together the puzzle of the rancid scent.

Pistachio nuts that are fully closed

I had a rant here about pistachio's before. I've since found out that if you can use the shell from one to open another. It even manages to prise open the sealed ones.

The last hour in work.
Why does that last hour feel like hours itself!!

No it means that the model could have probably worn a 6 if she wanted it shorter. Like for example, if the dress is knee length on the model (a size 8 at 5'9 inches) if I wanted it shorter, I'd buy a size 10 instead of a 12. If I wanted it the same length as the model then buy the 12.
Does that even make any sense? It does in my head.

Edit: if you want help with picking out dresses/figuring out sizes, you can PM me if you like. I am a pro at clothes shopping.
