This is going to sound mean....I don't really believe him

I wasn't sure I did either hence not giving cash but I can't stop thinking about if he really did need it and **** it it's only 4 euro

Lexie I think he just wanted €4. A work with a diabetic and he eats without insulin

The Diabolical Monocle

Ok maybe a little hypocritical as Im no oil painting but here goes.

People with those skin tag things - the yokes that look like some kind of demented half nipple jutting out like a weird pink flag flapping in the wind. FFS. Would you not just grab a bottle of whiskey a pliers and a razor blade and get it over with.

Knew one guy who had one on his neck, the whole time Im talking to him Im pulling out an imaginary samurai sword - whoosh, there ya mate go all done. Anyway what were you saying.

Anything dangly on me thats not an essential body part is cut off well before it can cause offense.

And aulfellas with nose hairs - jaysus Christ, part of me wants to get a scissors out but the other part of me is busy vomitting at the thought - this is why people run from you in case you were wondering.

Can you really not eat though

Sometimes. Diabetes is all about a build-up of sugar in the blood. The build-up is due to a problem with insulin, which is a substance produced in the pancreas (IIRC) that facilitates absorption of sugars into muscle and skeleton tissue. With Type 2, the problem is a certain immunity to the effect of insulin, often followed later by a shortage, and with Type 1 the problem is not enough insulin. So in either case blood sugar levels need to be carefully controlled usually via a mix of diet and medication.

I'm pretty sure if he was that bad and he presented to A&E he'd get what he supposedly needs. Plus, he might have a medical card. It sounds very similar to "I need to get the train to Wexford" kind of thing.

TDM Got my skin tags removed, the fookers grew back

I had them under my arms, they came randomly, so I waxed them off. They never came back, but oh god, the blood.

On my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy. He looked sick and when he asked me for money (I never give money) I asked if he wanted tea, he said that would be good, load it with sugar cause he was diabetic and had no money for insulin. I asked if he wanted a sandwich and he said no he can't eat til he has insulin and needed 4 euro for insulin. I went and got him tea and a bar of chocolate in case his blood sugar dropped again, came back, he didn't want the chovolate cause he needed his insulin. Now I'm bavk in work, worried SICK, thinking maybe I should just give him the 4 euro Because he didn't look well at all. Id nearly go bavk and check on him but don't want to look like a stalker

Watch a person who choses to inject themselves with 'insulin' make a cup of tea sometime, it would pretty much be a mug of sugar with a dash of hot water, rattle of a tea bag and a splash of milk.

I spent the day in Belfast on Saturday with friends and got the last train back to Dublin. I was pretty pizzzed, slept the whole way back and just wanted to hop into a taxi and get home. Got a taxi no problem, but driven by the worl'd chattiest taxi man. All I wanted to do was rest my head on the window and drift off until I was outside the door, but no, this guy wanted us to participate in the chat olympics.

Within the space of the 20 minute drive I learnt that he is separated from his wife; has two grown up daughters, one of whom wants to move to Australia, which will break his heart; she is a legal secretary and her boyfriend is an electrician; he still lives in the marital home even though he can't afford it because he wants his daughters to be able to come back to their family home; he had to drop out of a masters when his wife left him so if he won the lotto he would go back to college but still continue to be a taxi man as he loves the job so much.....and on, and on, and on.

I was exhausted by the time we got home, and then he pulls out a cracker 'Us taxi men are more than just drivers to the people who take our cabs. wW are confidantes, friends, great listeners, therapists all rolled into one'

Well, you didn't let me get a fcuking word in you absolute mentalist, so you are clearly failing at being a taxi man

Did he have a pretty 'camp' voice by any chance? Sounds alot like a cabbie I had one time, although I know that the story was really that he broke up with his wife because he loved man penis.

I was at a funeral yesterday, outside the church, I cracked a funny joke out of nowhere. Hysterics of laughter from all that seen/heard what happened. It was quite a relief as people where pretty down.

The TA was the weight of expectation that rested on my shoulders to come out with another zinger.

You waxed skin tags off? Jesus, I don't think you are supposed to that, as far as I know they are a type of mole. I had a general anasthetic for the removal of mine...though I had a good few.

Meh it was grand, dabbed a bit of tea tree gel on after it and there wasn't a bother on it. Bled a lot initally but didn't hurt afterwards

My classic for that scenario is

"your man who used make up the crossword for the Irish Times is buried over there"

"Where?"

"three across and seven down"

Boom boom

I had mine removed using dry ice, It took 2 sessions. One little fecker on my neck grew back

I ate 3 dinners yesterday. I've started training a bit more lately and hungry all the f*cking time. I want to eat everything. The food will take away the muscle pain.

Got up early and was at a lake at 8.30 to do some pike fishing. I was packed for a good long session but was back in the car by 10. Blasted water was frozen! It was 4 degrees air temperature but the bleeding lake was frozen solid. What a waste of a morning.

Boom_Bap 3 Dinners in one day Awesome !

You've obviously got the hots for me and spend hours doodling Vel + 26sdrawkcab all over your notebook whereas I am aloof. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

The guy behind me on the bus is full on snorting and has added to this audible delight by blaring his music. The next two and a half hours are to be enjoyable

Ah, I see. This is a surprisingly common misconception, inasmuch as one can run around with one's mickey out, like a horse, while not necessarily having a mickey like a horse, per sé.

Why is it when I decide to go on a diet, I get at my most hungriest. Decided I should join either slimming world or weight watchers this morning, and stopped off for a giant bar of chocolate to eat while pouring over the pros and cons of each one, and then I've decided on weight watchers, and all afternoon all I can think about is a bit dirty Chinese and I am hanging for home time.
