Are we talking about kids, here? If it's adults, I have two words for you: Kris Kindle.

If it's kids... I have no advice.

I thought they were going to be two different words:D;)

Someone who constantly posts about their fitness progress on Facebook...

In my experience, it's usually the people who are relatively new to fitness and exercise who do this... the people who were once totally out of shape... who this time last year wouldn't get off the couch to make the tea never mind go to the gym.... and that's great, I'm positively delighted for them, and their first few posts about their progress makes me happy.... this is good news, yes.

BUT..... when it's five months later and they've been updating us all practically every single day on what they did today! At that stage that's called pure attention-seeking, GO F*** YOURSELF!

"Block them then!" I hear many people dying to smugly instruct me. Even if I did block them, they'd still be doing it, and its their doing of it that annoys me, regardless of whether I can see it or not. Also, sometimes it's someone I do genuinely like and care about, and I do want to be aware of their other posts. Unfortunately it means putting up with all their attention-whoring too.

*and breathe*

I said to my trainer "put on more weights", he said "there are no more".

In a coffee shop earlier and I stand up to leave. I am still standing in front of my chair while putting on my coat, grabbing my handbag and chatting to my friend when I feel a presence beside me. Some little old dear has claimed my seat by placing her bag on it and parking one butt cheek on the edge. She's hovering half on, half off the chair. I actually have to shuffle by her to get away from the table. And there are numerous other free tables around. 'I'll be in your grave next' she jokes. 'You're lucky your not in your grave right now, the mood I'm in, you pushy old wagon' I think

You have no idea how much I wanted this word to be "said".

When you get sick of receiving junk mail from a company and hit unsubscribe.
Then they send you a mail confirming that you have unscribed. Get the fcking hint!

TA not finding my feet as quickly as I'd like in a new job. Then your mind turns against you imagining everyone is watching, waiting for you to fall flat on your face.

How DARE my mind conspire against me!!

Christ almighty, yes. Just once I'd like to be able to buy something online without getting bombarded with emails after the fact.

I was searching amazon for a part to fix my washing machine.

Weeks later, I get a mail from them:

Fancy treating yourself this Christmas Whiskeyman?
How about enjoying.... 'Fridge part XFFgjn4834534'.

eh....... no thanks.

F*cking Bed Clothes.

All of them.

Which sheets/duvet covers are single/double/Queen/King etc. I know it should be obvious and I'm an idiot for not being able to get the better of them but I dread changing the bedclothes because of how they mess with me.
Last week I changed the bedclothes and picked up 4 different fitted sheets for the double bed to find that each one of the 4 was for a King sized bed. Trying folding a fitted sheet on your own! B*stards.

Why do the manufacturers feel the need to put the address of their factory in Spain on the label but cant clearly tell me what bed size it is for is beyond me.

What really annoys me is how it should be so simple and is nice to have clean sheets but my God is it a ball breaker to actually do it.

This. Times a million. The amount of times I have near suffocated myself climbing into the duvet cover to get it right.

And without sounding like a quote from Father Ted, I have genuinely put my back out on occasion during the whole process.

Use the "inside out" method for putting a duvet cover on. Should be able to find it online!

At myself, sometimes when I'm tidying my room I get lazy and I don't know where to put stuff or how to sort it so I just pile it in a corner for 'another day'. :mad:

The same thing applies to documents and what not on my laptop. Currently trying to tidy stuff that I had unsorted into random folders a few months ago. At the time I wanted to clear my desktop, out of sight out of mind eh.

And now when it comes to doing an actual tidy everything is so much worse. sigh

Actually another ta you reminded me of, I'm surprised no one picked up on in this thread, in my 269 post here i asked did anyone want to spoon. I swear I only realised after I'd posted.

Still haven't even got a hug not to mind to play big spoon/little spoon since I posted that. :pac: I imagine the big spoon/little spoon will be twisted into something else entirely but that's fine.

At this stage I'll take any spoon and no that didn't sound any better in my head.

Well going by your location you don't want to be found, unless you are waiting on a Liam Neeson-esque encounter.

I don't know who you are, I don't know where you are. But I will find you & I will spoon you ...

tomwaterford · 02-12-2015 11:08PM
