    I wish! I'm driving from the utopian paradise city of Cork but I have a German OH who has questionable taste in music. I have to listen to a lot of Scandinavian folk metal :(

    He could be listening to Rammstein, a German rock band who sing in German instead..
    Im guilty of owning some of their albums, quite tuneful, O.H has same reaction to you and the Finnish music though. :D

    I watched the first 20 minutes of the movie San Andreas yesterday,

    TA'd that I can't figure out if it's supposed to be a comedy, or a genuine action movie.

    If its an action movie, it's terrible, but if its a comedy, its brilliant!!

    Girls giggling in the library and IT labs. Primary school is over folks, you're an adult now so act like one.

    I need 100% silence when trying to take something in, I remember being taught cidr notation in a class with a couple of twats that never shut up. That was a test itself.

    My bf moved all of my laminating and messed it all up on me. It was in lots of little important bits. And yes the corner of the sitting room is the perfect place to keep it because no one goes there usually!

    When you have an urge to rant about something, but there's nothing to rant about, so you have to rant about the fact there's nothing to rant about.

    rant.

    My lack of self control annoys me. I ate a load of Turkish Delight...lumps of the stuff coated in coconut and right now, it's bubbling and fermenting away inside me. Jeez!:mad:

    I could, but I'm fairly annoyed right now that i don't have the energy to rant about the fact that the heat pad I'm wearing right now like a cummerbund isn't worth a shìt for back pain, but it's great for keeping my arse warm. The nurofen plus I took earlier don't do shìt either, and I haven't anything stronger to hand. So I'd to sit though dinner like a cross between a constipated chicken and a pregnant woman, took me 20 minutes to get up and sit back down, and looking at the bar it's like sheep gathered round a trough. I'd a young one elbow me in the tit earlier while I was trying to get to the bar, trying to balance drinks while I'm concentrating on blocking out the pain and avoid spilling drinks all over the obnoxious toolbags that don't respond at all to "excuse me" (I could say it in several other languages but I imagine the results would be the same, fcuking twats), and I can't say a word to the OH because we're out celebrating her 40th birthday and I don't want to ruin her evening! :pac:

    Spent nearly four hours last night putting our wardrobe together only to lose one tiny little screw. We had to stop and leave it undone and went to bed at 2am. We still can't find the screw anywhere. So annoying!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭Gwynplaine


    Just because you don't like it, it doesn't mean that it's sh×t.
    Just because my opinion on something is different to yours, it doesn't mean that my opinion is wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭Gwynplaine


    Ah jaysus. Who fcuking calls unannounced ? Cooking a nice lunch for myself, was going to sit down and enjoy it at the telly, when.........ding dong, "it's only us". An hour and a half of small talk and lunch gone cold. I'm exhausted after it.
    Please text in advance, it's very easy.
    I'd have not answered the door if I hadn't been seen in the window.

    This happens to me quite a bit.
    It's usually the other half's parents and the last time they showed up unnannounced we were in the middle of cooking the Sunday dinner.

    I was draining the spuds, boyf was just about to carve the chicken and the doorbell goes.

    We put the chicken back in the oven and I put the spuds back in the pot.
    The inlaws came in, SAW we were cooking and instead of saying "Oh God you're doing dinner, we'll come back in an hour" they sat there, supped tea and ate biscuits and all the while we were both starving.

    I HATE unnannounced guests :(

    All the Christmas threads creeping in.

    I know I'll need to soon accept that Christmas is on its way and learn to deal with it, but it's still a little hard just yet.

    People who park their trolley slap bang in the middle of the supermarket aisle whilst they decide what they wanna buy.

    I ram the trolley and say "Sorry bout that" really loud and sarcastically,it makes me feel better.

    Speaking of christmas....the shopping centre beside us was absolutely packed today. I know the weather would have contributed to it, but looks like people are doing their mad christmas rush shopping earlier then ever this year. 30 minute traffic jam just to get in to the car park...Grrr.

    The contraption of an undergarment that is the 'bra'. Sometimes there is nothing quite so annoying.

    Yes indeed.. we'll have less of that shocking behaviour of encouraging the women folk of boards to throw their bras away. Shocking altogether :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,180 ✭✭✭✭One eyed Jack


    I was dozing off earlier and I figured I might as well assume the position in the armchair (arms folded, head back, and leave me alone!).

    No chance! I'd only nodded off about ten minutes when I got woken up for dinner and then desert and then cake, I'm fit to burst now and wide awake :(

    All the talk about shopping though and Christmas. People become frenzied like the shop will run out of stuff in early November or something. Crazed eyed folks supermarket sweeping is ridiculous. It's all consumerism and a marketing ploy, the true meaning is lost under the cheap tinsel and tack.
