Heard a rumour once, if you sliced it you got lock-jaw, so just curious.

Mookie Blaylock · 25-10-2018 8:42pm

About 3 weeks ago I heard a rumour about someone I've known for 25 years abusing children.... didn't believe it, couldn't be true...

Had it confirmed by a member of his family this evening....have to admit....as most of you know, I'm a bit of a prick.... but this has fcked me sideways

No..no it's not... but there's no thread for "things that rip you apart and make you puke" I'm afraid

People who are un able to comprehend that they are in a cinema and not in their living room.

The dregs who seem to go to VUE cinema in liffey valley each-time I go there, or does that type of crowd always go there. People who show no common decency or respect for others when out in public.

Virgin media box forgetting to record random episodes. Can’t cope.

This happens too often! Tip if the episode and series number are missing it won’t record somethings I see this in advance if failed recordings. Factory reset will fix this but you have to reset recordings up.

People who press the button at traffic lights, when they don't want to cross the road.

I sometimes do this at certain pedestrian controlled lights. It gives me a safe opportunity to pull out onto the main road if the sensors aren't picking up my car or bike and I end up waiting for ages trying to trigger a green light.

The inefficiency of this country . No one seems to be in charge , schools built badly, HSE run badly , babies buried in sewers , rent out of control , house prices rising once again until we have another crash .Every blessed day we hear of some other inefficient management of our country . And no one pays or is accountable .

The watch I was going to wear today is showing low battery.

I can change it myself but as the back has about a dozen tiny screws I really have to be in the humour to do it.

Thanks for reminding me to charge my stupid fitbit. I regret getting the damn thing at this point because it needs charged twice a feckin week and always dies without telling me. Think I'll just go back to a boring old watch.

TA at myself - watching American Housewife and hating myself that I said the actress in it looked better when she was in Mike and Molly and skinny.

FFS anyone said that to me I'd be pissed so why did I do it ?????

Bredabe · 26-10-2018 2:23pm

Chatting with colleagues yes, they were slagging me about walking to some appointments as Im not allowed to drive.
In this conversation, I mentioned that I don't like walking to x place as it means I have to go past y area.

Student of the year(she is connected) goes off on one at this comment about my obvious bias against the ppl who live in Y, how I should be glad it's not me and how unprofessional and inhuman it is of me to think like that about ppl who can't help their circumstances.

Never once did it dawn on her to restrain her rhetoric and think that walking past an encampment that is slightly off the path causing residents to drive quickly onto the path and onto the road might be dangerous to those of us walking on the same path.

In a word(s) ta ppl who don't think there might be a real issue before they make a show of them shooting their mouths off.

Ear hair.

Why? and What for?

New Home · 26-10-2018 2:40pm

Insulation?

My father would say that his TA is the time I used wax strips to remove his ear hair, but I had great fun.

(Ok, it was gross, but it was still fun)

Pawwed Rig · 26-10-2018 2:43pm

Insulation for the inside of my ears I can live without. Only way to get rid of them is tweezers from what I can see.

Not sure how the wax would work and don't think I want to find out

To keep things out, and because as you age your ear hair grows longer though not thicker or more dense. As you age your hairs life cycle changes, so you thin on top and grow long, luxuriant, extravagant ear and nose hair to compensate.

Not much of a trade-off, sadly.

My TA: Thinking I've loads of time before I had to meet someone, then panicking when I realized I'd frittered away too much time, then rushing like crazy to get to the meeting, then getting a message that the other person will be late.

Thank you very much, ye gods of chaos.

If the ear hair gets long enough you can comb it over the bald spot on top. Look on the bright side.

Let's just say the wax strips made gave him a better understanding of women's grooming (including the legs).

Those razors for nostrils are supposed to work well on ears, too, provided they don't break after one use, like the last one he got.

When I squeezed the almost empty bottle of salad cream onto my sandwich air puffed out of it and blew some lettuce off of it.

Cutting nose hairs is a terrible idea. It is really itchy and painful as it grows back. Just pluck it out.

Imagine the state you'd be in if you got an infected follicle or ingrown hair though

New Home · 26-10-2018 2:56pm

Not my hairs, not my ears. :cool:

I'd say that if you disinfect the skin before and after you should be ok.

In fairness, he hasn't ask me to go near his ears since, I wonder why. :pac:

they tend to have really shallow roots and pluck out quite easily. It is worth the risk.

Get rid of nasal and ear hair with a lighter and a can of Lynx Africa.

Ticketmaster. Had the app all ready to go this morning and then noticed the concert wasn’t appearing when I searched it. Tried desktop version and was working fine so went with that. Managed to secure two premium tickets, tried logging in and kept saying wrong details. So I re-registered and then it said this email already exists. Then I tried logging in with my boyfriend’s details and finally got through to payment. Added in my details and got to the verified by visa page. At this point I text my boyfriend to say he can stop queuing because I’ve got them and didn’t want him paying as well, so he leaves the online queue. That very second the whole thing crashed and I got an error message on screen and by the time I tried again it was all sold out. So ya, half Ticketmaster’s fault, half my ineptitude. Annoyed.
