    Would love to whip the sock off and give it a good scratch but probably not the most hygienic thing to do in an office.

    Tubridy also calls ‘tourists’ ’toreists, and calls Sean o’ Rourke ‘Shon o’ Roark.

    Lookit,pronunciation out in Montrose is not a strong competency.

    Don’t get me going about yer one on ‘it says in the papers’. Please......

    Fog lights. They're done through sensors on the steering. Turn left for a bend and the left fog lights up. Right and right.

    One part of me loves it, because I imagine all the anti-foglight brigade rattling in their seats with impotent rage as some clueless crossover drone """""blinds""""" them on a bend.

    Another part of me hates it. Because the. ****ing. Amount. Of people coming into the garage complaining that their car is missing a fog light because it was parked in the yard at night with the wheel turned and they copped it is getting ridiculous....
    And worse still, they start arguing with you when you try to explain it..

    Why does the guy next door goes on to drill some holes after 8 in the evening despite being home the whole evening?
    It's 9.20pm and he just started drilling right in the adjoining wall, woke the toddler who's terrified of the noise because it's so loud.
    Can someone please just spoon-feed people some common sense....

    Someone I follow on Instagram put up a picture of her baby on her stories saying “first poo on the toilet today, so proud!” Why. Just why. Who actually gives a flying fcuk apart from you?

    I'm so fcuking wrecked a lot of the time these days. You know where you're physically and mentally exhausted from having one thing after another to do/organise.

    People who write/type "ect" instead of "etc".

    I've just seen this in a different thread and realised again how much it annoys me :mad:

    THREAD TITLES IN ALL UPPERCASE

    People that put space between the end of the sentence and the question/exclamation mark !

    Do you think it cannot be seen otherwise ?

    I think the toaster is on the way out, the control seems to have little effect. The bread is coming out just shy of burnt. Tbf though it's an el cheapo brand and has given years and years of use.

    I managed to drop my power flosser in the sink this morning and crack a piece off the top. If I cant glue it back on that is over €100 literally down the drain.

    When people are overly anti-swearing.

    Two examples:

    1. A video on YouTube showing the aftermath of a terrible event - a large percentage of the comments underneath were about how the word sh*t wasn't bleeped out and not about the harrowing and tragic events depicted in the video.

    2. A really cute video on social media of a little girl pretending to talk on the phone like her mum. There were a ton of comments underneath saying how horrible the parents were for teaching the child such awful language and the child's mouth should be washed out with soap and water. The little girl had said the word damn. Shock horror!!

    Sugru is what you need (probably). And if it's the plastic attachment that you broke, you can often get replacement parts. Hope you can get sorted. :)

    Its a small piece of the neck that chipped off. I somehow managed to find the chip. I'm hoping i can superglue it back on.

    It drives me mad when football commentators apologise to the audience for "colourful language" that someone in the crowd has used, and that might have been picked up by the mikes.

    I'm pretty sure NO-ONE who watches football on the telly is offended, and even if they were, it's not the commentator's fault so why is he apologising?

    Exactly - it's not like they're all saying "darn it", "oh isn't that awful" "fiddle dee Dee, that will require some remedial action" :rolleyes:

    Colleague who only came back after the Christmas holidays on the 7th and moved to a three-day week when she did is on her fourth sick day of the year so far.

    This person also happens to be one of my oldest friends and spends her life complaining about her mean boss who won't give her a salary increase. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold my tongue.
