Trust me, as soon as I get rid of the last few pesky hairs on my head I'll be comb overing my way to the top.

Lads with wigs create much the same dilemma as the comb over crew. It's amazing. A chap around where I am has one on the top but didn't update it when the bit of real hair on the back and sides went grey so he has a really cool 2 tone thing going on. Legend.

Getting back to work after spending your holidays washing dishes and helping kids with homework.

Discogs sellers being less than honest about the item's condition.

People who pretend not to luxuriate in the smell of their own farts. It's like a form of sociopathy, but directed at the self. Liars.

Just reminded me and I bought 2 albums off Discogs. Sound

Stubbing my toe on the way to bed :(

Being woken up at 9am on a Sunday morning with a phone call from your bank to let me know that my bank account had 8 overnight transactions which left me €1666 lighter. Damn!
Hopefully I get reimbursed soon....

Yikes, yeah, hope you get that shit worked out...although I'll admit that for a second I was thinking I might just pay €1,666 to be able to sleep til 9 on a Sunday at the moment!  :abbath:

Woke up to the phone call and seen it was a Dublin number so swiped the call off. But I lay there thinking 'why am I getting a call from Dublin this early on a Sunday morning?"
Straight away I got a text telling me to contact the bank as there had been suspicious activity on my account.
I think the bank doesn't release funds straight away anyway. The transactions are 'pending' which is good I suppose. Might have to wait a while for the funds to returned though.
Anyway, new card and PIN ordered and any shopping online from now on will be done on my Revolut card which will be topped up to the transaction amount each time.

You probably already know but you can create virtual cards on Revolut that you can dispose of when you complete a transaction which curbs the risk of fraud considerably.

Yep, I seen that alright, handy trick. I think I'll just top up my Revolut to the exact amount I'm spending online in future. I don't spend much online nowadays anyway (I let other people do that for me  :laugh:).

I was speaking with a colleague earlier and he was saying that him and his missus were victims of this last week too. But for under €200 each....
Shit buzz....

When you're sure you lost a box of cds that has a lot of great stuff in. Dark Throne, Moonspell, Bathory, Blood Ceremony, Ulver,  Neurosis and more....you've been searching the attic on and off for months ! Then, just when you think you're losing you're mind...under the eaves behind another box....there it is ! I feel like an old Egyptian explorer or something !
Sure it all worked out in the end.
