o much for confidentiality anyway.

Anyway, after me wholeheartedly apologising and promising it won't happen again, she subsequently informed me she doesn't want to talk to me anymore and wants to end all ties.

Thats the worst bit IMO, not been 'allowed' to talk to her and explain yourself. Totally rules out been friends with her which is sad.
But anyway, give it time, dust yourself off and get back in the saddle.

Toilet roll that is of quite good quality but is so thick, with so many fibres that a kind of dust comes off it. Toilet roll that is as soft as a young feline comes to mind!

Got a viber from the ex in the wee hours when I was asleep telling me to go on FB immediately. Basically she told me not to talk about us to her friends again. I thought she was referring to her POF friend but it turns out her other one squealed like a pig. So much for confidentiality anyway.

Does she realise that you're allowed to talk to whomever you want about whatever you want, and that she doesn't actually get a say in it?

Also her friend sounds like a c**t.

She doesn't realise it. Which is annoying in itself.

Agree with the second part as well

You're better off out of it all and cutting ties with everyone involved.

I was reading about this recently, and here's your answer:

"First, because we use them so often for tactile testing, our fingers are coated with an extremely high concentration of nocireceptors, or nerve fibers that send touch and pain signals to the brain. This makes fingers especially sensitive our "Achilles' heels" when it comes to rifling through papers.

As for paper itself, it's the perfect battleax. Sharp-edged enough to break skin, but too blunt to make a clean cut, paper carves through fingers like a dull, jagged saw. It doesn't cut deep, but this only makes matters worse: it keeps the blade riding high, at surface level, where nocireceptors that send the sharpest type of pain signals are typically concentrated.

Even worse, shallow cuts don't bleed much, so they don't readily clot and seal. Instead they remain open, exposing nerves to the air for a protracted length of time.

They just keep on stinging."

I'll show this to the OH and maybe she won't call me a wimp when i complain about them in future

Is there a really bitchy strain of the cold virus going around at the moment, had this for nearly 3 weeks now.

Barely There · 06-08-2015 02:47PM

The way my wife and her sister talk about (and to) their younger brother.

"I must remind him to print out the boarding pass"
"How will he get back home from the airport?"
"Did you hear if the flight got in on time?"

He's 33 FFS!

Yes - well at least I have one for the last 10 days, and a couple of times I thought it was almost gone but it revved up again.

I rarely get colds so it's almost beyond TA at this stage.

When you forget to top up your electricity meter. Cue turning on the reserves and rushing to get the code and then messing up entering it in. All while being half asleep

they way they play that song from the culture club on the radio 15 times a week and i know nobody who likes it, DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HURT ME...agggghhhhh

Rushing around all morning and trying to get home because you're expecting guests. Only for them not to show up or even call to say they're not coming.

After a quick gym work-out this morning, even quicker shower and leaving said gym with wet hair because I'd no time to dry it, I practically sprinted around the supermarket to pick up things for lunch.

Got home, threw everything in the cupboard, prepared some sandwiches, gave the house a quick clean and had been on edge for hours, looking out the window to see if they were coming.
But they never showed.

I texted them and they replied "Ah no we'll leave it today."
And I've got a plate of curly sandwiches and a headache

Counter staff who say "when you're ready", especially in McDonald's. Very rude and annoying to hear this when you've been waiting in the queue.

Maybe print it out and "accidentally" give her a paper cut when handing it to her :P

Maybe he's an idiot.
Maybe they're controlling.
Maybe he's an idiot coz they've always done everything for him.

Well now, they can leave it till hell freezes over! I wouldn't be having them around again after that carry on!

TA at how I always wait until about 2-3 weeks before I go on holidays to decide to eat healthily and get in shape, instead of doing so a lot earlier in advance. How do I always think that I will have a Bond girl bikini body in a matter of 2 weeks?!

Nobody cares or is looking at you love, they are too busy looking at themselves!

Enjoy life, a bikini is an atoll in the South Pacific.

Looking for somewhere to live, rings up apartment owner, conversation as follows:

'Loads of people are ringing, I can't have everyone turn up you know.'
Me: 'So it's ok if I come at that time then?'
'Well there's one guy who told me he wants the place already, he's really interested.'
Me: 'Sure I'm interested too, and so are all the other people I presume.'
'Look I'll be straight with you, I got on very well with one woman on the phone who's coming with her son and I'm giving it to her.
Me:'Why then are you having viewings when you've no intention of giving the place to any of us and how can two people live in a one bed flat?'
'It's just for her but you can come to look if you want, it's your own choice.'
Me: 'WTF.' (To myself)

How about when you've waited patiently in a McD queue for almost 40min (in France) and when it's your turn the manager walks over to the till and says, "TILL CLOSED, join another", (just had a goo for a big Mac),
my O.H questioned him, he told her to just go to back of Q, I had never heard her curse before. :eek::eek:

The reality is there's probably one other person interested and they're trying to hurry you. say you heard from a friend the place is badly insulated and the noise from the street can be quite bad at times, it applies to pretty much every apartment and it'll change the conversation from when are you putting your deposit down to when can you come and have a look to see if it isn't that bad. they'll even hold the door open for you and call you sir

eternal · 06-08-2015 07:53PM

I'll take your word for it, but it's impossible to find places right now and her attitude was brutal. It'll be gone within the hour in the morning probably.
