Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

To be honest i'm getting to the stage where I don't care that much about football anymore. The individual results make me happy or sad, but the reality is there's a glass ceiling as to how far a team like Stenny can go. Maybe it's because I'm a bit older now but football is way down my list of priorities. On a Friday night I used to be buzzing about the next day's game regardless of who we had, but now it's a bit of a chore making a 15 min walk to the ground and even more so traipsing back from Glasgow.

I get some stick for not overly caring about results. Like Stenny, there is also a glass ceiling to how far Arbroath can go, and so I don't have the mentality that the result is all that matters. I don't want to drive 80 miles each way to watch us grind out a 1-0 with our only shot of the game. I just want a nice day out, whatever the level we play at. I was quite happy even after the Annan game where we lost 2-0 a couple weeks back because at least we looked entertaining, even if we didn't win. It still has to be Arbroath though, I don't get the same interest with other clubs, but all I want is for my team to be somewhat entertaining to watch!

Football is not top of my priorities any more, and hasn't been for a couple years now. If there is something better to do, then I'm likely to do that instead. However, international football is different! I get far more worked up about Scotland than I ever do Arbroath.

When someone buys me a present and later on i'll say to someone else that it's shit and i get called ungrateful.

I don't want presents off anybody. I have money and buy what i want.

Why is it when i shop for presents i take ages and get something appropriate and i get bought junk?

Maybe because you're an ungrateful spoiled fucker?

The first part is because people obviously think and care about you to get you something, whether you want a gift or not. If you don't want presents, then fine, just give them away to someone who may be grateful for them.

Ok, you have money, well done.

Perhaps the presents you buy people are junk and they think that they are unappropriate but they receive them in the manner in which they are sent.

I actually like that song. We get that at Zumba classes so now when I hear it I want to start throwing some shapes. I know that sounds like I'm arguing with you and saying that it's a good thing, but it's really something that gets on my nerves. I want to hate her.

Doesn't the chorus of Burke's song remind you of this.

This really is petty, but annoying none the less.

First season with Dundee in FM, League Cup Quarter Final against Hearts. It's 1-1 and goes to pen's, which I win. Come out the game and it says Hearts have won with a 119th minute goal that never happened.

The amount of negative harbingers of doom there are when you talk about the Scotland game tonight. It probably will end in abject disappointment, but you know that if we actually have a good campaign, these same idiots will jump on the bandwagon.
