When you're peeing on a stick and get two pink lines

I can never fathom those. My last one made me wait for a "-" and "l" or something. So pregant was "--" and weren't you damn lucky was "- l"

....

Then I got ll... There wasn't even a corresponding result for that one!

Edit.... just realised I may have been holding it sideways :P

Edit: no... that still makes no sense. Can they not make them for the spatially impaired?

Game over at that stage (more or less):pac:

There could be a fortune to be made yet in those crazy liquid-cooling rigs gamers use for powerful PCs, only for gooters! :pac:

My Dad was the opposite. When I finished secondary school and started working he warned me to never bring a guy into the house at night 'or I'll tell him to pick a window, he's leaving' were his exact words. My mothers were 'you're old enough to make your own decisions, but never come home and tell me you're pregnant'.:D

The whole 'over protective about their daughters' thing annoys me and somehow has a whiff of sexism about it. Especially when some fathers I know allow their sons to wander about in neanderthal herds. My boy is being brought up fully versed in biology, with manners and respect for the opposite sex and my daughter the same with a bucket load if cop on.

I don't get it either tbh. I was raised by my uncle and he absolutely adores me but he was never horrible to any of my bf's. He was always very welcoming and nice.

I remember doing one last year and I was too frightened to go see the result so sent my best friend. She comes back, white as a sheet, saying there's one proper line and a faint line and that it was the exact same result as when she had taken them when pregnant with her little girl.

Turned out to be an evaporation line.

I have no idea what you ladies are talking about. As usual.

Lmii's car when it's icy outside. He tells me it's a rear wheel drive, whatever that means but when it's slippy and we go around a corner it throws the car out at the back, it's a horrible feeling. Your heart would be pounding the entire time you're in the car.

Tell him to turn the traction-control on.

I got really offended when I went to the pharmacy for mine and my friend suggested buying a multipack "because they work out cheaper" - Why would I need more than one? Until she pointed out that it was my third in the past couple of years :rolleyes:

I have a video somewhere of myself in my old 1972 MG BGT blazing around a snow covered tesco car park at 6am...all handbrake and clutch....tear in my eye thinking about it.

That happened me the last time I was out. The big b*tch was in stilettoes! My foot is still bruised from it and that happened on Valentines weekend....

Stupid cnuts, can they not watch where they are standing?! :mad: I'm so tempted to wear steel toe capped boots the next night I go out. Anyone who even grazes off my shoe will be getting a swift kick to the nether regions. That'll learn them.

I had a physio appointment this morning, and didn't know what I should wear. So I wore matching underwear with a sports bra on top, a vest, a baggy t shirt, and jog bottoms. All I had to take off was my jacket, and I stifling in it all

kfallon · 04-03-2015 12:05PM

Went to the bank, put in my card then had a mental blank about my PIN number! Tried once, no joy so decided to not bother. Came back to work, sat at my desk and remembered it!

I annoy myself sometimes :rolleyes:

Something simillar happened to me years ago after surgery. I went to the cash point and couldn't remember the PIN number, I've never remembered what it was, weird.

I've only had the same PIN number for years :rolleyes:
I thought that even my fingers would just remember it, that the minute I put them on the numbers they would, out of habit, hit the right buttons! But they failed me

My parents were very conservative about some things and I'm talking about back in the late 80's early 90's when things weren't as liberal. A lot of their friends kids were getting pregnant or getting girls knocked up and the thought horrified them. They knew I was no saint but that I was very careful and discreet in my 'nocturnal activities':D My brother got away with so much it was unbelievable and I had a row with my mother over it once, her response was if I got pregnant it was their problem but if he got someone pregnant it was her parents problem.:eek:

Every single morning I come in here it's the same story. Crumbs at reception, crumbs on the stairs, fingerprints on the handheld mirrors, treatment rooms not tidied from the night before. There is a big **** off list stuck up

A step by step guide. Not only does nobody clean, nobody makes an effort to keep the place clean when I do it.

Rather than using pink paper with little kisses at the end, I suggest using 1940s-style German font with an Iron Eagle heading the paper. :pac:

Correction: A bucket load of condoms.

And get the word 'P45' in there somewhere.

I am guessing they reckon they were hired for some other skills than cleaninig and see that as beneath themselves. Time to stop asking and start telling.

I went for my first smear many years ago, it was after I had my first child. I was handed a gown and sent into a cubicle. Young and very, very stupid I hadn't a clue what to do, so I stripped the whole lot off of me, and put on this little gown. Oh the mortification when I went into the doctor, and I twigged it was really only my bottom half that should have been removed. All my clothes outside in a cubicle. My cheeks are burning just thinking of it. So my utter dopiness at times is a big TA !

You seem somewhat agitated, Herr Hauptmann. Perhaps a week in Ze Cooler will improve your concentration somewhat??
