    TA that I am now trying to figure out how three drunk lassies can manage to squeeze in to one stall and each pee successfully without making a right mess....
    The physics dont work!

    Fine. That demented multi-pitched squealing is probably a spun bearing somewhere. I'll sort it out later, there's no need to keep reminding me every six sodding months, woman! :D

    Imagine a man propping up a bar with four of his mates, on their fifth pint, and says "Lads, I am off for a slash, anyone want to join me?":D

    It's amazing the contrast between men and women in the jacks.

    Women cram into a cubicle and yammer away about the issue de jour and hover like magicians/illusionists.

    Men give a quiet nod to each other at the urinal without eye (or member) contact while silently judging who has the stronger stream.

    Doesn't happen. The correct announcement, as you know, is "Ay-oop, there goes the seal. I'll be like Niagara Falls the rest of the evening. Better out than in, wha'??" :D

    Not in my house they cant. I am the only one who knows how to use the Dyson.

    Well the "don't sit down!" is bet into us from a young age. In fact even now if I am out with Mam and we wind up using a public toilet she'll invariably shout out same from her cubicle, which is excruciatingly mortifying. So, there's the squat. Need pretty strong thigh muscles to master it though :)

    Yes, and then your mates discuss the possibility of you being gay, because you went for slash before the sixth pint:D

    With a determination that would shame Bruce Lee. Ever wonder where many of them get those wonderful leg-muscles? :pac:

    Women's bathrooms never really lose that sense of comradery. I've been in the work bathroom before company functions and come out feeling like employee relations have already been improved :)

    ONW I think you were chatting up the ladeez ;)

    Pfft, hovering is for amateurs - toilet seat wipes all the way! :p

    TA'd that the last 2 jars of Nutella that have come into the house have been rock hard. It's supposed to be spreadable! I have to sit the jar in warm water to soften it or use a hot knife. Basically it means waiting longer for my nutella. I think I'm re-discovering an old addiction. Curse you Pancake Tuesday! Curse you Ferrero with your enticing "Pancakes Love Nutella" stickers on top of your jars. Rosie loves Nutella!!

    Wellll, I wouldn't say you're crazy, but... a little odd perhaps :p

    Reminds me of another TA though -

    People that when they make me a coffee, they think I can't tell the difference between two and three spoons of sugar, and I really haven't the heart to tell them I can tell when they spike my coffee with that canderel shìte :mad:



    One of these days...

    You're not crazy, you just have sh*tty tastebuds :p . Only joking, it's stupid to call someone crazy for not liking something.

    Eisenberg sounds like a jobsworthy. A plague upon their house for annoying our Eisenberg.

    My brother cut the plug off something he didn't want me using. We have a neighbour who's sleezy as **** with me, but is quite harmless and very helpful. He fixes things we cant fix. He built me a walk in wardrobe in my old bedroom. He can make/fix anything. He'd be very timid, gets on really well with my brother though I think he's frightened of him.

    Anyway since November I'm asking him if he'll put the plug back on for me, he keeps saying he will. I text him yday to ask him again. And he says he will. Then he's saying "does XX know you're getting it fixed?" No "Are you sure you should fix it?" It's mine, and I need it. "Using it will make the esb bill that bit higher". Although I don't live there I still have to pay my share.

    I could tell he didn't want to do it, so i stopped texting him back. Then he text how to put a plug on myself, strip the wire etc so I said that's grand I'll do it myself, then he's texting me again this morning saying he'll do it now because he doesn't want me to get electrocuted.

    Such a rigmarole to have a new plug put on. I'll do it myself and I'll be more independent for it. And I'm so tempted to send back a snooty text telling him it'll be fine, God forbid we upset the Major. I don't need his ****ing help anyway and he can **** off with his pervy messages anyway
