Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

I was sitting on a bench with my daughter this morning down the beach watching my son throw sand at passers by. Next to us an older couple parked up and out they got and unleashed this knackered looking border collie. It was one of those nervous dogs that looks as if it had been thrashed to within an inch of its life.

So the dug wanders over to the sea wall and sort of waits for its master to come along and put its lead on. The wifie then glances skyward and declares that there is a kite flying in the sky.(about a mile away) So the man then says "no we have to leave. She just won't enjoy herself knowing it's there". So he opens the back door and the ancient dog scuttles in. Then the wifie says I wonder why she wont go for walks when there are kites flying. And the bloke says, it's probably some instinct thing from 2 million years ago when dinosaurs were flying in the sky.

I don't know. It just pissed me off. I wish my son had thrown sand in his face instead of the nice sensible couples he was doing it to.

Berwick lost. :(

Scotland lost. :(

Poland lost.

Wales lost.

The Republic only drew.

England won! <_<

And the daft old 84 year old bat in the downstairs flat fell asleep whilst boiling up a pan of cabbage and burnt it. Now the whole place smells like the opening paragraph of Orwell's 1984:

The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old rag mats.

Could have been worse I suppose - she might have burnt the whole place down! <_<

Kilted lunatics who are prone to exaggerate.

Right, all the fottie footie results are correct so I can only assume you're referring to the old bat boiling her cabbage pan dry. Honestly, the whole place was reeking. When I chapped her door, she apologised and said that it was only her daughter phoning her that had woken her up and, when her daughter said 'You seem to be coughing a lot mum' she realised the pan was still on the stove and her flat was full of smoke. :o

I kid you not - the whole place was reeking for hours afterwards! It's only a small place....

SEE! :P

Edit: 1. I couldn't spell 'footie' and 2. The whole 'bat' thing has just wooshed me! :ph34r:<_<:(

I really can't believe you fell for that. :o

Your original post lays claim to an 84 year old bat. :rolleyes:;)

She's either pregnant or someone has "possessed" her stomach - it looks like an imprint of a face is pushing through her rather sexy looking dress. :ph34r::lol:

A mate has just got in touch to arrange us going to the Scotland game.

'Where are you sitting. We're in the North Stand'.

Guess what, I'm in the South Stand! <_< So cue much milling around after the game amidst the Tartan clad throng before we meet up again to go home! <_< Typical! :rolleyes:

Kilt, why not go on the Tartan Army Message Board, or the Tartan Army bit on here, and post a thread saying you're looking to swap one South Stand ticket for a North Stand one. There'll likely be someone in a similar situation to yourself who'd gladly swap.

The amount of time in-between the host saying "And the winner is" and then actually announcing it. It's not one show in particular (though it was watching Taste the Nation with Nick Hancock that made me realise), but they are really ripping the arse out of it now.

Good idea buddy, I might just do that! ;)

My PTTGOYN - organisations who make home appointments with you then fail to show up. 'We'll be round at your flat at 10:00am'. Come 10:45am there's still no sign of them. Now I'm going to have to phone up and make another appointment. Needless to say my boss wisnae too impressed either! <_<

And I have another problem, rather like the bits left over when you assemble flat-pack furniture. My TV is all set up, the DVD is plugged in and working, my Freeview access is fine and all the SCART leads and whatnot are functioning. But I've been left with this...

...there's no mention of it in the instruction booklet and I have absolutely no idea what it is for or where it should go.

Unfortunately, with my filthy mind, it reminds me of a clitoris stimulating cock-ring......but surely they wouldn't include that as a bonus gift with a telly, would they?! :ph34r:

Anyone any idea at all what it is and/or what it's for? :unsure:

Really? I must get my mind out of the sewer! :lol: It's defunct then as my TV stand came with a purpose built cable management system so no trailing wires for me.

If I strike lucky with my neebors, Yvette and Hazel, I might actually use it as what I first thought it was! :ph34r::rolleyes:
