Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

It was indeed. Pretty dull affair all in all. None of the editors from the newspapers could be bothered turning up, so the course leader from Cardonald College handed out most of the awards.

You been before?

That's a shame, used to be a fairly big event. I've not been no, my girlfriend was on the Cardonald course a few years ago, Martin is a sound guy, really good laugh so quite disappointed for him that none of the editors could be arsed showing up.

Did Scott Gray, Rob Moore or Bryan Copland win anything?

I assume it's wireless internet you have? You might've pressed the button on your laptop which stops receiving the wireless signal. I did this once, and it took me about half an hour to figure out what was wrong. I felt like a moron.

Yes it is and thanks, I'll give that a try - depending on whether I can find which is the wireless signal button thingy or not! :(

Yes without casting general aspertions she is a blonde :lol:

:ph34r: Does she look like she's just walked out of an Avon catalogue as well? ;)

NO RUNNING!!!!

:lol::lol: It wasn't even as exciting as that. It was to do with the recycling strategies in place, the 'do not dump waste foodstuffs in paper recycling bins' and fire evacuation safety procedures.

I might have run there, I staggered back in a torpor of ennui! :(

Scott Gray was nominated I think. Don't notice the other two names.

Caley/Cardonald pretty much swept the board.

I've met Martin before because I went for cardonald's course because I was getting a bit desperate in trying to find a course, but caley took me on so I didn't take it. He seemed pretty sound, and his speeches were pretty funny, despite doing 5/6 of them.

It was pretty packed but just a bit dull. I'm just bitter cause I lost.

Supposed to be playing football down at KHS in 3 minutes, but i've no way of getting there.

Surely not a problem if you only live 2 minutes away? :unsure:

Well I suppose it is now, sorry I didn't come up with this idea 4 minutes ago. :(

That fucking "Fox's bis-quits" advert. :angry:

How can you not like Lenny? What a pandaramic legend he is. I agree with the ealier poster, I despise the Muller advert "Got my berries got my cherries" advert. The fact that it is being played on the radio every 15 minutes does my box in too. Oh and another thing, radio adverts - the same adverts over, and over and OVER AGAIN all day every day. GRRRRR :angry:

The Gray Ghost needs a haircut! :angry:

Its been nearly 6 months now, and The Gray Ghosts hair is a long, fluffy and cuirly mess, its annoying as hell. The Gray Ghost tried to get it trimmed and dyed, but bottled it because the salon is always full of women, and whenever The Gray Ghost goes to a barbers, its closed. Its so annoying, The Gray Ghost hates is, but hasn't had time to get it sorted out. The Gray Ghost cant work without a hairband because it just gets everywhere. Need a haircut! :(

I know a man of the spirit world doesn't like venturing outside in hours of daylight, but exactly what time are you trying to go at the barbers at?!

Weekends and after 6pm. Now The Gray Ghost comes to think about it, The Gray Ghost can see a bit of a problem with this. Why the hell arent barbers open at weekends though? Some of us have to work during the week. :angry:

I've got one and haven't had to visit the barbers for nearly five years now and you can give yersel' a trim any time of the day or night you please. :) They're only about £25-ish and, as my previous barber was £5 a shot for a short back and sides, in five haircuts time I was saving money! ;)

I once made the mistake of going to a 'Unisex hair salon' rather than my ususal 'Ye olde cut throat razor barbers' and was subject to 30 minutes of hell.

All 4 of the hairdressers were woman, one of which was a really pretty younger girl. I smiled and said hello to her when I arrived and by chance caught her eye during my haircut (she wasn't cutting my hair). The middle aged woman who was, then spent the next 25 minutes embarassing the both of us by describing how much we both obviously had a thing for each other and was basically trying to broker a date between us. I was cringing throughout and found myself basically running out of th shop after I'd paid at the counter.

No f'cking chance. The Gray Ghost has gorgeous shoulder length curls normally, and is very proud of his hair. Its fluffy, strokeable, curly, and chicks dig it. Normally (well, last year), The Gray Ghost goes along to the barbers every couple months and just gets a bit trimmed off to get rid of the split ends and even it out. Its got too long and out of control. After a shower, The Gray Ghosts hair is so thick that it sits on his shoulders and fluffy out, making The Gray Ghost look like a cross breed of a sheep and an Egyptan building. It just needs a bit of a trim to get it back under control, not anything crazy like clippers!

As said before, The Gray Ghost has been steeling himself to go into his local salon for weeks. The actual dying will probably be alright, its just the bit where The Gray Ghost has to go into a tiny hairdressers and ask a room full of giggling women if he can get green highlights put in. The Gray Ghost has walked by it a few times, but every single time, this place is mobbed! Mobbed The Gray Ghost tells thee! :(

Aw why did you do that? Unless you were already taken then would you really say no to a 'pretty younger girl' as you describe her? I'm assuming you are spoken for, otherwise you're getting a collective slagging for running away :P

I am now, but this happened quite a while ago so I'm not sure if I was or not. I'd have happily asked the girl out but just felt so embarassed and humilated in the way that the woman cutting my hair was carrying on. It was a small shop and she was speaking so hat everyone else including the girl in question could hear.

I get you, one of these 'you want the ground to open up' kind of moments? That is quite embarrassing, although I'm sure she meant well even if she should've kept her mouth shut. She was probably trying to embarrass her workmate for a laugh and just saw it as a bit of fun ;) I understand though that must've been a bit cringeworthy to say the least.

PTTGOYN - working tomorrow night, a wedding on Saturday and being forced into going to a celidh on the Sunday. Now I know weddings are great and everything but it just takes up the whole day and I'll spend the entire day making smalltalk with people I don't really know. I can't legally drink yet either. It doesn't allow for time to be spent with my mates. Plus no footy.
