Small things that annoy you (3)

[Schmosby]

Got the squits, but the neighbours are in the garden, so can't go without them all watching me.

[Dougella]

^ You don't go in the garden, do you?!

[Schmosby]

No, but they will obviously all jump over the fence and press their face up against the glass and even if they don't, they will use knowing, to know I'm pooping and when I've finished and open the window, they will all say "He pooped" and laugh.

[Dougella]

^ I really hope you're only imagining that scenario and your neighbours aren't really that nosy!

[Rocket Spud]

Leaving the slow cooker on overnight cos i fell asleep drunk, and spoiling the food into mush

[Schmosby]

^^ Luckily the night drew in and I was able to go under cover of darkness.

It's funny how you can be shy about that sort of thing in your own home. If it's really quiet or late at night, I feel a little paranoid about going to the toilet, wondering whether the neighbours can hear me going about my business. I don't know what I imagine they're doing over there. Maybe holding a glass to the wall and whispering 'Doreen! Doreen! He's on the toilet again!' while making a note in their memo book.

[Merritt]

Anyway, a small thing that annoys me is when you're waiting for a delivery, and even have an hour's slot so you know when to expect a knock, and someone sees fit to time it perfectly to come and try to sell you new windows. Almost literally any other time and I could have safely ignored them, but no.

^^ they really are doing that I'm afraid. They have a special column in their notebook for especially loud plops.

Yeah. The joys of a downstairs bathroom.

When you're really really tired and dozing off in front of the TV.....you decide to get into bed and become instantly wide awake.

[crumble]

When you're trying to get to sleep and your brain wants to remind you of all the wrong things you've said and done. Like "hey you...do you remember when you were 15 and made a fool of yourself in front of that person"

[Rocket Spud]

^ You need a cattle prod. I've been thinking this for ages.

[Percy]

^ I've said for ages, its a shame tasers are not legal in this country.

[Percy]

^ Out "wotsits" are usually pretty contained. A dude would never allowed another dude to shake his "wotsit" so close.

[Rocket Spud]

'Don't shake ... don't shake ... don't shake your wotsit so close to me!''

'Dude .. where's your wotsit.. ?'

I thought I managed to suppress this memory. But yes, urine has managed to hit parts of my hand before. God, I hate public urinals!!! I usually head to the enclosed toilet area. What with having shy kidneys. But that very day, I remember how I was trying to work on the whole CBT thing. And how was I rewarded for that confidence, I had a guy standing right next to me, shaking his junk like there was no tomorrow and me wondering why I was being covered in golden showers. God, I hate public urinals!!!

I'm also sorry to hear what happened to you!

[Rocket Spud]

Tut, filthy ..

Reservoir wotsits.

[Rocket Spud]

Yeah yeah, no intention of a double meaning at all, ofc.

I think some blokes desperately need to do that course.

I still remember one guy standing next to me at a urinal coming out with "those look nice".

He might have been referring to the rocky road biscuits I was holding....................















I hope!

[Schmosby]

^You were loitering at the urinals eating biscuits? I feel there's a story here.

[Percy]

^ I was standing at the urinal holding biscuits. Although that sounds even more dodgy when you read it in an SAUK context.

[Percy]

^ Weirdos and me.

My best friend gave me a packet to try and on the way home I needed the loo and was holding them in my arms when I walked up to the urinal.

My dad's car was accidentally pranged slightly while parked by next door neighbour. small scuff on headlight, small scratch on bumper and a very small dent on bonnet. neighbour said tell us the damage, and they'd pay to avoid insurance

dad got a quote from insurance company. now I'm not saying the garage says "insurance is paying out, so come up with a number and triple it". new headlight (only damage was scratch on the plastic). bumper was virtually undamaged. apparently needs a new bonnet. cost? £2,200. 1/8 the value of the cost of the car.

if someone had actually removed the headlight and bonnet, the cost would have been the same. mmmmm hmmmmm......

^ Do you mean this man thinks your son should be wandering the streets or that he shouldn't be? And besides, what has 'appearance', 'party going', and 'street wandering' got to do with him and the price of fish?!

The teacher does indeed sound like an idiot. Unfortunately I've met a few of them myself over the years

[Rocket Spud]

Remembering you have no milk just as the kettle boils.

[Rocket Spud]

It's the worst, no doubt, but i've just remedied that

When you have that sticky outey bit of hair that just wont go down no matter how much product you use !

^Data rollovers should be in all phone deals imo. Luckily for me I have a hugely generous package. Although I have over 100gb of unused data in the last year which I can't get back, all this waste can't be good for the environment...
