Lol I suppose but i'm not sure the build up flesh smell would be that enchanting after a while- even if men are supposed to be cave men.

All these sickly generic high pitched singing plus acoustic guitar songs.

I think i ballsed up my chance for feedback with my last transaction when i added 'not quite 'like new'' to the positive feedback i left for them. Standards have to be upheld - if you're gonna mark it 'like new' then you can't deviate from brand new condition too far - i won't tolerate fingerprints on the disc and the packaging was a little scuffed.

I used to be good with leaving feedback, but I'm pretty bad these days. Back when I was selling I just used to message people a few weeks after purchase to check that all was well and ask them to leave feedback.

I'm one of them said wankers who dont leave feedback on ebay

To be fair hardly anyone leaves me feedback either, swings and roundabouts but I hate the phony A+++ EBAYER WOULD USE AGAIN bollocks.

Admittedly when I sold a few items approaching a grand I was more than happy they did actually leave me feedback as I knew they weren't likely to open a dispute!

Recipes that substitute courgette for what would normally be used. Pasta and courgette is nice but I don't want the pasta replaced with courgette.

When small, seldom used things aren't in their usual place - the measuring tape has gone walkabouts!

Stopped at Greggs to get something for lunch. So I said 'large Sausage roll please', she replied 'how many'; me: 'just one'. She just stood and looked at me like I was insane to be buying just one
I guess I must look like a pig

This cold. It's now been lingering for over a week. I don't remember what it feels like to not fear that the slightest sneeze might leave my hands covered with a gooey, translucent glisten obvious to all that surround.

One of a few disadvantages of living just with my Mum-
As she is my Mum, she is always right, and there is never anyone to back me up.

the way that so many people lately have totally ignored what I have to say,
very often people will simply talk over the top of me speaking,
it's happened so many times lately, I'm beginning to wonder what it's all about,
it happened 3 or 4 times this morning,.
I was speaking, replying to a small group of people, and they all just ignored my input and kept talking, never responding to a word I said.
it's all very peculiar and unusual,. and quite ignorant I think tbh

^ happens to me too. I think it's something rude, self absorbed people tend to do, but it's hard not to take it personally.

Horse poo in the street. Not just horse poo in the street, but horse poo on the pavement. Is there a rule where it's okay not to pick up errant plops if it came from something swanky like a horse? Imagine the nerve of riding your horse of all things on the pavement, letting it drop a huge pile of business, and not clearing it up. 'Nothing to do with me,' says the only person in the area who owns a horse.

^ Since that post, I've been down a rabbit hole (or horse hole, if you'd prefer) of Googling to see what other people have to say about that sort of thing. The general consensus seems to be: horse poo's alright, it's not as mucky as dog poo, it's good for the garden, so it's no big deal if there are big piles of it sitting in the street. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills! It's shit on the pavement! I agree that there are varying degrees of offensiveness for street-based tods, but it's still the contents of something's arse you're having to step around.

On the pavement?! No, you can't have anything pooing on the pavement, we need to walk there. It's bad enough when people don't clean up after their dogs!


(Don't look at what's going on in San Francisco at the moment due to lack of public toilets, it's horrifying )
