I couldn't make lunch for my OH to bring to work or my morning coffee because everything in the little fridge-freezer is frozen solid. It was only set to 2, 5 is the highest setting. We defrosted it during the week and it was working great, I was marvelling at how lovely and cold everything in the fridge part was. It must have worked really well during the night! It meant that nutella and toast was on the menu for breakfast instead of cereal, though, so every cloud has a silver lining
. Mmmmm nutella.... 0 -

(We've all got fat-girl pants, for days when you're feeling bloated or it's "that time of the month").
The aforementioned undergarment is slightly larger than the normal pair of pants so I didn't want anyone seeing them (my house backs onto several other houses at different angles), so I tried hanging them right at the corner, beside the wall.
My biggest fear is them blowing off the line and into the neighbour's garden....or worse still, the neighbour knocking on my door with my fat-girl pants in hand.
The shame.
Embrace your fat-girl pants! (I like the phrase) We have a communal garden and I put the clotheshorse outside in the sun with my giant fat-girl pants flying free on it. They're even worse than the usual ones because most of mine have some sort of animals or something embarrassing on them, like snowmen or penguins. I am shameless about my giant underwear. My OH is just as bad, her spongebob underwear is shamelessly displayed too

And while I'm at it I hate when I'm strolling down the road, minding my own business, and I see some distance away some eejit who I know will stop me and insist on having a conversation about crap, which I'm not in the humour for. The thing is, I quite like the same fool so I don't want to be so overtly impolite as to use the Tipperary Full-Back Method - i.e. shoulder him off the footpath, getting in an elbow to the ribs for good measure, and make a run for it - so I have to pull the cellphone and pretend to be answering a call in a testy, this-had-better-be-good-to-be-bothering-me-with-during-my-fcukan-downtime-mate sort of way and thus avert the danger. Yes, I am an arsehole sometimes! 0

Ive done this - pulled the pretending to be on the phone trick so as to avoid speaking to someone - altho its generally the chuggers on the street I do it for as they are so in your face and as much as I want I cant be rude to them - just make sure your phone is on silent - as you don't want it ringing when your pretending to talk!!
and that's another thing that TA's me - Chuggers!0 -
This drives me properly potty sometimes. I'm 43 years old, I don't give a rattling scuttery fcuk about Kim What's-her-arse, her sister, her father, what gender he thinks he is, or any of it. I wouldn't recognise any of them if I hit against them on the street, and I'm not interested.
I'm not quite of your vintage, but I've still always had the same attitude.

Not that I think you do this but there's plenty who'll go on a thread about (insert celebrity here) to say "Well I've never heard of "insert celebrity here" and I'm glad".
Why are they glad? How can they have a negative opinion of someone they've never heard of?0 -

I've been on this and the previous thread for a long time, I know what it's about. If you want me to be more specific, it's annoying to have someone post a bitchy comment aimed directly at your post, it's also bad manners.0
makes me feel so guilty! They only last about a week but I feel terrible about them! This discussion has been closed.
