    So anybody got j list of achievements that aren't really a big deal?

    I was talking to my uncle and he told me he was off the drink for the past 6 days, he was looking at me as if I should throw him a parade or something, people look for praise for every little thing these days.

    Anyone got any other ones?

    I learned how to drive a manual transmission at the age of 49. Back in America, Daddy told me that all cars in the future would be automatic. Well, it might not sound like an accomplishment to you. :)

    I got out of a chair without groaning.

    If your uncle used to drink everyday then that's definitely an achievement for him. Achievements aren't absolute.

    Managed to push out an 8 inch 'log' this morning! Tbh that's not much of an achievement but to get my bunghole to close back up to it's normal state after it was :o

    Over in the "Describe your favourite move and then see if people can guess it" thread, people keep posting identical clues for "Finding Nemo" every few days. I've got it three times now.

    I should feel guilty about those likes, I know. But hey, it all counts towards the big prize I'm gonna win at the end of the thread, right? Right?!

    Must've made a change from eight-inch objects going in rather than out. Hope you're okay x.

    You remind me of Jeremy Kyle, who mocks a junkie of some description over his habit, before being told by the aforementioned junkie that he's now clean. Jez, slightly embarrassed, ask for how long and whatever the guest says, Jez puts it down and the whole audience laugh along with him.

    I'm sitting there thinking "well, people who are clean for 10 years were clean for the same amount of days this bloke is claiming once upon a time". Just makes no sense to me.

    I hope that is 8" in length. Because if it is diameter ... well, let's just say you'd want some power in your nipsy to be crimping it.

    Anyway - Bravo... isn't that what your'e supposed to say in these situations?

    If I was used to them going in I'd have had no problem in getting this out! Had to pinch off at around the 8 inch mark, relax, have a brief interlude and get my breath back and then banish the rest of it up the Liffey! Tough work, Trap 1 was like a sweatbox this morn too!

    Suffering from depression

    A huge achievement for me is getting out of bed in the morning and making it to work

    People who say they skydived for charity etc comes to mind.

    It pales in comparison to the 8incher log!

    Even doing chores like washing the dishes or washing the clothes is a great boost!

    "Graduating" playschool.....

    What a load of bollix!

    I'm with the missus 5 years

    I think I should be a contender for the Nobel peace prize

    I can fit 8 pringles into my mouth and seal my lips without breaking any of them.
