    'Reaction videos' on youtube.

    Go searching for a trailer for something, and the real thing is buried under mountains of plebs who seem to think the world cares about their reaction to bloody watching something, which is probably staged anyway. Fûckwits.

    Almost as bad as "OFFICIAL TRAILER"

    *obvious fan-made trailer from already released footage re-edited with awful music*

    Great call. I'd imagine the amount of people watching the rugby this weekend hoping something mad happens so they can film their old fella jumping around before they send it off the balls and the42 must be through the roof.

    I work in an office with a view of a LUAS construction site. The noise is not a TA, so no more about that, but I just watched one worker try to use a digger to pick up a small pile of wet concrete. Maybe 50 kg or so, which is not a lot of concrete, to be moved about 10m. Of course he only got some of it: a digger is a blunt instrument*. Get a wheelbarrow, bucket and spade, you lazy so-and-so.

    * yes, I've seen the Mythbusters thread a needle with a digger, but that took them hours and dozens of attempts.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Next time I have a bright idea to challenge myself (install a new kitchen sink and tap) please shoot me.

    Pop up ads on mobiles that have no close 'x' button when you look at it on horizontal display and need it turned to find it...

    My crush just came over and tried to have a conversation with me.

    ONW is all

    "....."
    (reddening face)
    Crush: "so what are you doing for the weekend?"
    "...um...."
    (look to the side)
    "yes"
    "....."
    "so......."
    (chews on lip nervously)
    "....huh?"

    I hate how companies like UPC can keep you stuck in a contract when your circumstances change like moving to an area they don't cover but they are free to change it whenever they want. If I sign up for something at one price for 12 months I should get the service at that price for 12 months. Allowing me to cancel isn't much good when I want the service I signed up for.

    Both of us are sick now :( hopefully the meds work, doesn't look like we'll be up to much this weekend sigh :(

    I got the letter saying they wont be supplying me with their service because of some expiry of lease on the cable to the estate, (eh?) i'm on the ancient chorus E20 a month, no H.D or record box etc, went on their site and put in my address and low and behold..... they can supply me with the E30 set up, wow..
    But today I get the "we'll miss you, we loved serving you" letter....with a leaflet for SKY in it. hmmm.:confused:

    The drive down the N7 and M7 today, most eventful, from the heavy rain and spray, the cars with no lights on, the cars that zipped from one lane to the other with no indicator where there was not enough space for a gnat's ass to fit, making the other driver hit the brakes. But the top two.

    1, The red Expressway bus flying the whole way down the left turn lanes (into Naas north, at the big ball) neck and neck with a container lorry to his right, only at the last moment to put on his right indicator and pull out in front of the lorry over the hatch lines, could have been so much more than T.A if the lorry was doing 2mph more.

    2, The car the was stopped in the hard shoulder on the M7 while his passenger was having a whizz on the grass verge, full view of everyone,

    When you really like a shampoo but then they make a 'new and improved' version, but it is actually crap. And I bought 2 bottles of it.

    Forgetting that the rear door on my old hatchback no longer opens all the way automatically as it did... So I lean in to pick something up and crack my head...words, there are none....But I try!

    Well opinions vary on that! The first time I was dazed and wondered what had hit me and finally I am starting to remember and be patient..and tell the car " You didnt get me THAT time.."

    If I hear that stupid AIB ad on the radio one more time, I'll put my fist through the radio.

    "Brave knows"

    "That's why we're backing brave."

    Oh just fúck off with you're shyte. We all know you'll be screwing small businesses and getting bailed out by us again, when the next economic collapse comes around.

    Just took a good half an hour to put my contact lenses in. How do people do this every day? Now I feel all light headed. I hope it settles down before tonight.

    I like your thinking there Tom!!

    When the waiter or waitress comes over to your table and asks if everything's ok and nobody can even answer because their mouths are so stuffed with food.
    I understand they have to ask the question as part of their job, but I don't get why the timing can't be better, or visual indicators aren't used. If people are stuffing their faces, they can't answer - and also it's a good sign things are great!

    The most annoying thing about that ad, by far, is her accent.

    Contact Lense Newbie???

    I wear daily ones, gets easier after awhile to the point you could be pissed drunk from night before and still get the job done after 2 minutes.

    Today everything annoys me. My tolerance for other people has reached the bottom. I would like to head off some place. Where there are no people, no shops, no roads. Just me.
