    The watch I'm wearing at the moment, the strap seems slightly too tight at one notch and slightly too loose at the next 🤣

    Not sure where to post this because it didn’t annoy me it actually made me laugh, but I saw a post on social media asking what are the nicest “hims” to sing at a wedding, they then corrected the post and said “sorry meant to write hymens not hims!!!”

    Don’t know what’s worse hymens or hims 🤣🤣

    Having a black car with a black leather interior in this weather is driving me mad, I've resulted in starting the car 10 minutes before I leave work with the air con on full wack so the car is some bit cool



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,828 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    I don’t have aircon... And the way this and our future summers are heading it’s gonna be needed methinks ... found a website tonight for my folks and indeed myself that was selling nice remote controlled, robust, powerful, modern, digital and stylish looking rotating stand fans....ordered 3 but checking out I’m asked for a PIN number, no problem naturally, a PAN number... which I ain’t got and never was asked for.... so transaction not processing.... the fûck have businesses got to make trying to give them money in return for services even more complex... tried my dads card and he’s been asked too...

    My gym leaves all the windows open to let air circulate throughout the place, and it offers a decent view from the window also. My main TA though is the amount of people there on Monday eve just sitting around and playing with their phones instead of actually working out. One in particular sat down on the rowing machine and started playing with her phone before I had a chance to get the antibacterial spray to wipe it down after using it.

    Anyway I felt great after the gym session on Monday eve but now on Wednesday morning I can feel my ankle ligaments playing up again 😞 Also it's been a loooooong week in work so far and it's still only Wednesday morning.

    Today is my first vaccine day and I have been getting very sick all morning and only got about an hours sleep last night. Stomach is just doing somersaults and nothing I do is getting the thought of needles out of my head.

    I think it's gonna be an awful experience, will definitely faint and I have to log back online to work when I get home. I wonder can I bring in a sick bag into the vaccination center?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,870 ✭✭✭CrowdedHouse


    Just look away, you'll barely feel it. It's tiny, not like the darning needles they keep showing on TV. Good luck

  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 7,380 Mod ✭✭✭✭HildaOgdenx


    Make it known immediately to the staff at the centre that you are unwell, and may faint. I saw a post on one of the cv threads, a while back, where a poster did that, and they were seen by a nurse who was experienced with dealing with people with a phobia about needles (in their case).

    That the ignore function is gone.

    not sure if you are on mobile or desktop but it is definitely there on desktop. Go to the users profile and select the ignore option as per below

    And if their profile is set to private, you can add them to ignore by typing in their name, instead.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,535 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    didn't know you could set your profile to private.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,495 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    I actually did. The vaccinators and the nurse that looked after me were absolutely lovely. Couldn't fault them at all and I had no issue with bringing someone in once I explained to the soldiers/security guards that I was a fainter.

    Only issue was surrounding the person that you go to register with. The nurse told me that I should of told them that I was a fainter as there is a procedure in place to deal with such cases and was shocked when I told her that I did and that their reply to me was that they weren't a medical professional so wasn't their problem. There was also another issue with this individual when signing in for which the nurse is also going to have a word with on.

    There appears to be a ridiculously energetic spider living in my car. Every morning I use a brush to get rid of the epic web he keeps making on the back headrest and every morning it's back again. I'm just hoping he's not one of those big hairy feckers and that he doesn't drop on my head while im driving because I haven't actually seen him yet.

    People who do this should be fed through a mangle... im in my car waiting for sombody in a car park now... looking at a car thats about 6-7 feet from the front of their space... therefore about two to three feet into the roadway behind them and slightly over the line into the adjoining space which is unusable..

    Its a fūcking ford focus.. how do you fail to park a Focus between two lines and forward so you arnt blocking traffic...its crowded so fùck off and make an effort so other people can go about their day hassle free !

    If you're on the desktop, hover over the button. It's limited in the number of names you can see, though.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 77,032 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    On the desktop, click on your avatar, then drafts. You should see an "x" beside each of them. Click on it to delete the ones you want.

    How do I ignore a member using desktop site, anyone please?

    Click on their name, then on view profile. Click on the little "bust" on the top right, and then on ignore.

    You can ignore no more than 5 people, though.

    Wearing a white t-shirt and cycling more than you thought you would in this godforsaken heat and winning the wet shirt competition due to perspiration reasons and being the only entrant.

    The heat! I'm sorry it's great to see good weather and all but this is too hot for me. 🥵🥵🥵



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,409 ✭✭✭thomil


    It's not so much the heat per se for me, but the fact that things just don't cool down overnight, at least not where I live. That's really messed up my sleep, and even crankier than usual.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,709 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    I watch the start of Ireland AM on TV3/Virgin Media before going to work (so my trivial annoyance is self-inflicted) but there must have been a directive given the presenters to use the phrase "the mercury is hitting record highs" during the hot weather here at the moment. I've heard is numerous times from different presenters/newsreaders.


    I mean, mercury thermometers aren't even legal to sell here anymore yet somebody obviously thought this was a really clever phrase for everybody to use...🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,641 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Having a shower and immediately beginning to sweat as soon as you step out.



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Gods, yeah! I'm actually having cold showers these days, which is unprecedented for me. It helps with the post shower sweats, but doesn't stop them entirely.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,473 ✭✭✭Mimon


    Especially when it is two disabled places and they have no sticker. Saw a double double whammy last week there were four disabled places taken up with two cars parked arseways. Neither had a sticker 🤨

    Pain in my hole trying to navigate this site.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    I wore an awkward strappy dress yesterday and only put sun cream on after I was dressed. Of course I missed a spot and now I have a scalding burn patch right around my armpit of all places.


    Also TA when you skip a paragraph on touch site the first letter isn’t automatically capitalised

    We have water restrictions here from 10pm -6am since last week , which is fine and understandable considering the weather we're having.

    What's not fine is when they actually turn it off at 8pm at night without even putting a notice on SM , and some parts of town it doesn't return until 10-11am . Not acceptable imo .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Hate this weather.

    Tossing and turning all night with the heat. Woman is the same, even though she refuses to have anything other than an under-sheet AND a duvet all year round.

    Got up halfway through the night to move to the leather sofa in the sitting-room. Bit cooler thank god, and the occasional sticking to the leather was more preferable than slowly cooking in bed. But then the dawn chorus of the birds began just as I was drifting off. What's worse, there has been a cow in the field next to us bellowing all night and is still at it now.

    Day off, went for a walk when the heat wasn't as bad, came back for a shower, and after a simple task of hanging out clothes on the line, I am sweating like I have after run a marathon. It was virtually unbearable having to wear a mask indoors at work yesterday.

    Give me a typical average non-rainy day any day of the week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,641 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    I really feel for anyone having to wear a mask at work in this weather. It's unbearable.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 22,407 CMod ✭✭✭✭Pawwed Rig


    I cancelled a zoom call yesterday so that I wouldn't have to put on clothes



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 77,032 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    Instead of virtual backgrounds to hide the mess behind you, they should have virtual clothes.

    Have an absolutely rotten motherfcuker of a toothache since yesterday. The pain actually woke me up at about 4am this morning and I never got back to sleep. Nurofen Plus has been holding it at bay today, thankfully, but I've been ringing the dentist all day and no answer. Really hoping it's just a wisdom tooth crowning and not something more sinister.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,535 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    have you tried clove oil? Just remember to dilute it with olive oil or similar or you will burn your gums.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,174 ✭✭✭Bredabe


    Boots chemists sell an over the counter tooth ache remedy. I'm told it helps a lot.

    It seems to be clove oil in a carrier.

    If @Dial Hard can get some already diluted then even better.
