    I'll admit, I think the taste of full fat milk ruins tea (I like it in coffee though!). However I hear you on the weight loss thing. My mother will often come home peddling low fat cakes and bars she has bought (overpriced of course) at slimming world and proceed to eat half the box - "they're low fat". OK that doesn't mean you need to eat half the box, could you not just eat one normal cake and at least be done with it. Low fat food in general TA's me. It's so full of sh*te, aspartame etc. Just have a normal portion of normal food!

    I lost all respect for SW when they listed avocados as a "bad" food because of the fat content - literally no regard to the fact that it is a good fat, and probably one of the superfoods. They'd rather peddle their carcinogenic cardboard cakes to vulnerable people :rolleyes:

    On that note, non-diet cola. Out of all the brands, the only standard cola I've found that doesn't also contain sweeteners is Pepsi. Everything else contains both sugar AND sweeteners. Yes, I'm sure, I've checked loads and loads of brands, including supermarket ones! I seldom drink minerals and if I drink cola only when I urgently need something to keep me awake, but when I do I'd rather avoid additional crap.

    Should we blame the sugar tax?

    Regina Doherty's face. I'm sorry, I don't know why. I'm sure she is lovely (I know nothing about her) but just the sight of her face irks me. I make no excuses for how trivial and unjustified this annoyance is.

    She looks like my ex. That'll do for me

    TA: Being called a lockdown merchant by someone who never met me, and somehow they already know that I will refuse to go back to work and wish for this thing to go on forever. They already have me figured out better than my own mother. I'm gonna go back on the dole and claim 210 and lie to Intreo about where I live. I'm gonna turn down every job offer and I'm gonna be a workshy arsehole with nothing to show for it.

    They know more about me than I do. That's impressive.

    I really like her voice when on the radio.

    She has a great face for radio alright.

    TA I couldn't feel the baby kicking that much so I drank a litre of Ribena to see if a sugar boost would do the trick. She's kicking me half to death now. :o

    For some reason I haven't figured out yet, I can't stop mega farting the past few days. And they aren't subtle parp and run types either, these are the kind that could wake the dead and make them instantly regret coming back.
    Also, birds have nested in my roof right above my bedroom window. At night they make constant tap tap noises, and during the day they constantly scream like they're being ripped apart by werewolves. I love nature but God grant me patience and a shotgun. I don't know if It's the lovely clean air we have now but the estate I live in sounds like the Amazon rainforest at the moment.

    I washed a punnet of cherry tomatoes and dried them in a tea towel and then put them in the oven to roast. I picked up the tea towel after they were done and one rogue tomato was caught up in it still. Snakey little fecker.

    Out for a lovely walk earlier on what was a beautiful day.
    Supermacs bags lying in their not-so-natural habitat.
    Why can't people bring their rubbish home, is it that difficult to use a bin?

    When a tiny bit of water etc 'goes down the wrong way' and suddenly you are red in the face, spluttering and coughing uncontrollably like a diseased pig with tears streaming from your eyes.
    A serious over-reaction on the body's part and extremely embarrasing when it happens in public.

    Stop the lights! The amount of disposable gloves and masks all over the place really makes me angry.

    Two TA's if that's ok.
    Hope it doesn't TA anyone :pac:

    First one, at the self service check out in Tesco, don't leave your basket on the thing and walk off expecting me to tidy up after you!
    May your armpits be afflicted with the itch of 1000 fleas!


    Secondly, I unfollowed this thread unbeknownst to myself.

    Had to trawl through a whole 2 pages of AH new posts to find it!

    I may be a little tetchy today :pac:

    Had a TA yesterday that completely slipped my mind until now- how TA'ing :D

    Had ordered a cake for my GF's birthday from one of the cafes/bakeries, and was collecting it yesterday afternoon. Premises were observing good social distancing protocols to be fair, with a one-way system in place and the two staff behind the counter protected by a perspex sheet and wearing PPE.

    Of course there was some loudmouth woman and I assume her daughter ("blow-ins" going by their accents) who were ordering their own cake all the while displaying no self-awareness. They kept wandering in among other customers, talking REALLY loud to the staff and asking the most inane questions. When my order arrived, the staff member who was dealing with me asked me to take a quick look to see if I was happy, and I had it in my mind that one of these eejits is definitely going to want a sneak-peek for herself.

    And sure enough, even though I barely cracked open the box to confirm I was happy with what I got (I was-nicest cake I ever had :D), there the older of the two was craning her neck over my shoulder saying "jaysus dat's bleedin' gawjus lookin'. I'll have one like his". I could literally smell the fags off her breath.

    Feck off back to Dublin you head-wrecker.

    I read a news head line wrong regarding Covid19.

    It said
    X amount of deaths from Covid19, 157 new cases.

    I missed the space and thought there was 19,157 new cases.

    I don't know what kind of annoyance this is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Guarantee. Why do they spell it like that when it is pronounced ga-run-tee. ta with weird words that you always spell wrong.
    Restaurant is another.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,589 ✭✭✭DoozerT6


    TA'd at myself today.

    Witnessed another motorist make a silly maneuver on my journey home from work yesterday (essential worker).

    But!!, I did the exact same thing as the other car myself today. I cannot even begin to explain the brain fart and the feeling of stupidity afterwards. People be stupid, yo.

    It's me. I'm people.

    Lesson learned.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Porklife

    I was waiting ages for a pot to boil for eggs before I realised I hadn't turned on the hob. :mad:


    Like they said on Newman and Baddiel show: suicide should never be an option, unless of course you've been waiting ages for the kettle to boil and then noticed that it wasn't plugged in.

    I went to the supermarket once and the girl at the till was being really polite and cheerful. I took out my bag for life-from a rival supermarket- and I swear her expression hardened slightly, a frost descended and she was quite cool and businesslike to me after that.
    Did she over-react, I did nothing wrong like :confused:

    I used love the Hardy Boys mystery books as a kid....and would love getting them from the library,
    there's nearly 200 in total written by Franklin W Dixon... only....there was no Franklin Dixon...it was a pseudonym used by a collective of over 20 writers....
    I only found this out last year ffs :D

    I'll annoy you more and let you know that msot fo the original 38 books were re-written or edited to make the boyos more respectful of authority and to remove negative or racist remarks!

    Can't believe it took a collective of people to write them...

    TA'd that there's a rumour there's a new Twilight book on the way. Don't even know if it's true, but if so, that's just a sign of how bad things are getting...

    Yeah, they started off in the late 1920's..I had a few of the reprints done in the 70's.
    There is a new twilight...I think it's called New Moon...tells thing's from the werewolves side...not sure if it's to run in parallel or is it a prequel.

    My daughter is obsessed with the movies...books and Robert Pattinson...she will genuinely go to bed.. watch 1 or 2 of the movies....or read the books....and could do that 5 nights a week.. she actually wants me to book a holiday to that town Forks...wants it more than fcking Disneyland!!
