Ticket prices... I would really like to see AC/DC in my lifetime, but oddly enough I don't have €90 to spend on myself the week before Christmas.

Only one thing for it... stick on the DVD, dig out the public-schoolboy uniform and STOMP! An-gus, An-gus, An-gus!!

Went shopping yesterday with my best friend and her 4 month old. Obviously I got lots of cuddles from him and she took a photo and put it up on facebook. Pretty much all the comments are people thinking they're funny and original saying it suits me. Yeah cause having a child is an accessory.

You take way too much notice of people, Lexmeister. May I recommend a life of complete beetle-headed serene obliviousness? Maybe you need to be over 40 to pull that off properly... :pac:

Fcuk going to see them now, invest in the Let there be rock DVD, it was one of Bonn Scott's last gigs with them and probably one of the best concerts available in film, the Highway to Hell road show live in Paris from 1979.

People allowing their child, who is young enough to sit on a lap, to occupy a seat of their own during rush hour.

Suddenly remembering every single thing that needs to be done around the house as soon as I get onto my bike on the turbo trainer. Shut up brain.

"All set for Christmas?"
"No, I am going to cancel it this year"
"Oh, I can't cancel it, I have three kids. Ah you know, it makes it"

.....

I don't want to dredge up the us v them in relation to parents/non-parents but again, another smug declaration that Christmas is not really Christmas without children. God help all the poor childless souls sitting at home without kids to make Christmas for them. There will be no booze or catching up with friends and family or nice Christmas dinner for them. Nope, not a bean...because, you know....it's the children that make Christmas. Funny, I thought it was Jesus's birthday that did that :rolleyes:

Breakfast commentators -

BC: Oh I couldn't eat a fry now at this hour of the morning!

Me: Mmhmm...

BC: Ohh that looks lovely!

Me: It is...

BC: Can I try some of those mushrooms? Oh your egg is after splitting, oh...

Me: *glares*

BC: I was only saying?

Topped off by the arrival of this chap -

Ah the food commentators. Bain of my life and general thorn in my side. Even the smell of food is enough to send them up a gear. Have they never seen food before? Are they forced to live on oats and boiled potatoes? Why do they sniff and smell other people's food but then deprive themselves? Is it a weird sex game where they smell other people's food all day and practice extreme deprivation and then sit on the kitchen floor at home scoffing and gobbling when nobody is watching? Who can solve the mystery of the food commentators?

So long since I commented on this thread (with an old user name) but I have to jump back in for the food commentators.
Oh, you're having chips, they smell lovely, etc..

JUST FCKU OFF and let me have my lunch in peace

OldNotWIse · 16-12-2014 11:30AM

People who stink of the food they ate the night before. Garlic is the worst. Yak. Are we not disgusting enough creatures without having to ooze garlic from our pores.

Frosty McSnowballs · 16-12-2014 11:31AM

Out with friends and one bails without having the manners to say goodbye.

Chips? Oh my God you are so bold! Oh I'd love one but I can't, I'm on the blahdeblah diet. Oh but I would just love one! Oh but I can't...blah blah blah

Sorry about that, but I did leave the money on the chest of drawers, beside the lamp.

Thanks, you were great.

This is sometimes a necessary evil - especially if your with one of those who insist on buying you more drink when you're already full to the brim and they themselves are a mix of Mrs. Doyle and Fr. Jack.

Ooooh awkward, I wasn't home last night. Il pass on your thanks to granny.

I was wondering why she was hobbling funny on the zimmerframe.

Cheers

I really couldn't care less about Christmas. I'm not religious, so no reason to celebrate it. I don't want people spending money on useless gifts, it'd be much better if it was just another normal day off work with a meal, and if we wanted something for ourselves we could buy it, because we hadn't wasted tons of money on useless things for others.

But, y'know, gotta keep up the show.

yeppydeppy · 16-12-2014 12:20PM

Christmas isn't originally a religious celebration - it's the celebration of the winter solstice, I'm not sure why it's on the 25th instead of the 21st but it's probably because when the church decided to hijack the holiday they wanted to distinguish it from the original pagan festival on the 21st.

Aye I know that, but now it IS a religious holiday, really. Though I wouldn't mind having a dinner to celebrate the solstice, outdoors!

yeppydeppy · 16-12-2014 12:35PM

Which brings to mind an annoyance: people who attend the "hocus pocus (I'm the best dressed person in the parish) show" only at christmas - why bother?

"Oh this year, we are not sending cards, we are giving a donation to the homeless"

Send a card AND give a donation to the homeless, you miserable pr1cks.
