    For some reason the thread about parents swearing at kids won't open for me.

    This post has broken me. Spent a good 10 minutes pissing myself laughing at it. Sorry about your arms rubberlegs but that's hilarious.



    My TA is that my wrist is still sore after spraining it over a week ago. How long does a sprain take to heal ffs?

    Spare a thought for us men though? We have arms and the eh... extra bits elsewhere, turning from our backs to our fronts while sleeping is a very dangerous game for us!

    Also my TA, people who seem to find it impossible to stay quiet in the work canteen. Please just come in, make your cup of tea and mind your business occasionally. Just let me be anti social and keep my head buried in a book/phone.

    Shopping for jocks.
    Why do people feel the need to open a packet of boxers? They (more often than not) show what they're like on the outside, they've not added pockets to them or anything. Just take the box and go to the counter.

    You mean you don't try them on before buying??

    Coworkers that need to be held by the hand through every task. Made worse that they are now training a new hire. god help the new person.


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


    The plastic lid type thing I put on the bowls I put in the microwave(instead of cling film) has disappeared again! that was replacement 6.
    They are not expensive to replace but how hard is it to say to self, that it might be someone else's and leave it when it was?

    Went to the local coop today for a length of steel. What I wanted is 7.5 mtrs long. Asked a lad to cut it in half so I could put in the trailer. Another chap comes along and starts measuring it. His tape is short and I see him measuring to a mark and measuring the remainder. He does this twice. He then marks the centre and cuts it. The first lad then brings it out to me.
    What do I get? It's cut in 2 but one piece is shorter by over 4 inches. It wasn't going to cause any issues but to me cutting something in half should result in 2 pieces of equal length. Grrr.

    You're driving, your rules. Tell them to put up the window!! It is annoying though

    Because sometimes what you see in the box is not what you get - I remember getting underwear in Penneys ages ago, and the box said size 10-12, or 12-14, or 14-16, or 16-18... You get my drift. I got home, took them out of the box, and they were indeed that size. Only the left hand side was one size, while the right hand side was a full size bigger. :/

    Lesson learned (besides, I'd never wear underwear straight from the box!)

    Head melting technology updates that incapacitate vital functions!!! ...more than a trivial annoyance!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,376 ✭✭✭Shemale


    I work in IT and there are people in there that are opposed to and moan when we bring in a faster, better technology to do the job.

    One of them was going mental and I said if you are so against change what the hell are you doing in IT, the jaw hit the floor.

    In that case just bring them back, no?
    I know there's no returns on underwear unless faulty and that falls into that category.

    My underwear is a bit too snug today.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    There's a neighbourhood dog, he's old and moves about pretty slowly.
    He has parked himself at my front door the past few days with a raging horn on him. He's dying to try ride my dog.
    I tried taking her out for a walk last night and a decent pace, but the little f*cker managed to move faster than a hot snot and was trying to jump up on her back.

    Ended up carrying my dog home to avoid her getting banged. She hasn't gotten her bits tied yet and the last thing we need in our zoo of a house is puppies.

    Ask your neighbours to keep their dog in as per the law.

    I just had a fella to my house there to install something (oi oi) and as he was leaving he said “I’ll just use the bathroom before I leave” and I was like “yeah sure use the one upstairs because that one there has no toilet paper in it”. He looked at me like eh it’s not a big shlt I’m taking and said awkwardly, “yeah I just need to wash my hands...”. I don’t know why I thought he needed a number 2 :o I don’t know why I’m so embarrassed but I am
