Things you hate IV

I sympathise entirely with that!

 

Needing to take a dump directly after taking a bath or shower.

 

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance

 

True. I should know better at my age.

 

Agreed. One post-breakfast but pre-shower dump a day is all that's required.
Not as inflexible as that may seem, as timing could range anywhere between 7.15am right the way up to 7.30 am.

 

You have breakfast before 7:15 am?

You're nuts.

 

Alarm goes off at 6.30am during the week. My body can't distinguish weekday vs weekend so i just roll with it and it makes the weekend last longer !
Any unavoidable early work zoom calls require "mute" and "video off" during 7.15 - 7.30. I'm not an idiot ;-)

 

Good grief. 6:30 is the middle of the night.

 

Since the kids have been home schooling it's been nice to get up at 8:15 on a weekday, next week back to normal of about 7:15.

 

Bloody hell. I had no idea the problem was so bad in Malta.

 

'He's only being friendly.'

The amount of filthy ******* dogs I've had jumping up at me or the kids is insane. I don't want other people's animals on me.

 

Indeed. I always have a quick squat and a squeeze whilst I'm in there, to check.

 

I'm a thrice a day man usually.

 

Yes, I take that point.

Running away like a skittish pre-pubescent girl is a bit pathetic though.

 

I’d get that seen to.

 

I didn't, but my skittish, pre-pubescent daughters are wont to do so. Especially when it's a bull terrier of some kind.

 

Movies with titles as sayings like:

She's Just Not That Into You
Just Go With It
It's About Time
That Awkward Moment

Mainly rom-coms and I can honestly say I've never watched any mainly because of the title. It bothers me in a completely irrational way.

 

With my partner working from home she’s getting through loads of this type of film. She sticks them on the background while she stares at her laptop and I’m genuinely worried they’re rotting her brain.

If I walk into the room while she’s got one on I try to guess the name of the film, it’s pretty fun.

One’s I’ve just made up;

Oh no she didn’t!
The most unlikely place
He we go again
Blessings and Romance
Winter’s love (main character is called Winter)
Cedar Lane
The sweetest year
Sleighbell kisses

Films genuinely in the ‘watch again’ section on Netflix

Always be my maybe
Too hot to handle
The kissing booth 2 (2?!)
Love is blind
Just go with it
Virgin river
Home for Christmas
Life as we know it
Sweet magnolias

 

I’m ashamed to say there’s one called The Other Woman that was thoroughly enjoyable.

They absolute turd, but if they're Christmas themed, I find I can watch them in December without actually getting angry. It's weird.

 

That team had some unbelievable luck today
Not one shocker in their favour ,....two!!

 

"Oh no she didn't" made me LOL. That could genuinely be a romcom title.

The Sweetest Year though.. was anyone else on the edge of their seat towards the end?

That twist as well! Why couldn't Janie see that Cal was the one for her until it was too late? Why did it take a brain hemmorage after he hit his head on the railings when performing his "I love you " dance with his dance troupe for her to realise that he really did love her?

Oh No She Didn’t definitely has Queen Latifa and Chris Rock in.

Winter’s Love and Cedar Lane are a bit more thoughtful. Maybe starring Bradley Cooper and Saoirse Ronan.

Here We Go Again features an awful couple living in a massive house in Florida suburbia who’ve just had their third set of triplets.

 

International football breaks during the league season can pretty much **** off as far as I’m concerned.

 

You're a lot younger than I imagined

 

Quite liked Virgin River

 

EE.
Got into a new 2 year contract with them 2 months ago where all 5 of our family mobiles are covered for a very good price. Just got a letter telling me the price is rising. It won't be, trust me.

 

The media when they’re at peak hullabaloo getting so deep into a nonsense story that a poor dead woman is left to stare out hauntingly at everyone from somewhere around Page 25. It was unfortunately quite obvious what had happened but I bet her killer actually thought he’d get away with it these last couple of days as the profile of her disappearance remained shockingly low thanks to the royal family drivel. Of course now the media will be all over it, hounding her family and whipping it up.

 

It’s been the lead story on both the Guardian and BBC websites all day today, and was the lead item on the radio news that I listened to this morning.

Do disappearances generally get really high media profile? They happen pretty regularly.

 

Of course it has been today. And yes, I think in this instance it was obviously out of the norm from the outset and it’d have been front page news a couple of days ago but for the big distraction. The parallel is probably the Joanna Yates disappearance, which was big for days before she was found...although the media ballsed that up too!

 

I’m afraid I take a rather more negative view. Both Jo Yates and Sarah Everard are/were attractive, young, blonde women and it seems to me that this factor is actually fuelling media interest. If a 30 year old bloke had disappeared, woulld it get this much coverage? (Admittedly now it would, with the involvement of the Met officer).
