Quote from: Maggot Colony on February 28, 2025, 09:12:40 AMDreaming about the cunting Leaving Cert. I'm turning 45 this year and I'm still having nightmares about those fucking exams.  >:(

Back in my yokes days I'd often suddenly get the nightmare conviction into my head that I had to resit LC maths the next morning. Bad buzz, safe to say. But then instantly hilarious once returned to "reality"

The only thing close to a recurring dream for me is similar.

Its the day before the LC Maths exam and the school hasn't realised they've accidentally forgot to enrol me in a Maths class, so I've been skiving all year... and now i have to sit the cunting thing. The panic of opening the book and trying to make sense of the Algebraic equations!

Then I wake up and have to deal with the horrors of life as a 35 year old...

Limmy and his swing comes to my mind straight away

Grown adults who type like they're still using a Nokia 3310. I presume you don't have time to write the full word as your time is taken up with all the window licking.

Not a peeve, more a "fucking forgot how much they can cost" moment, but had an eye test there, need to upgrade my goggles, sound. €120 for the high index lenses I want, most of the frames that tickle my fancy are around €190, and even though I get a second pair free, it'll be €45 to tint them as sunnies. I'm in the "stone blind and live in my glasses" camp, so it's one of those things that's ultimately worth the cash.

Ah well, there does the planned tattooist appointment  :abbath:

Last time I needed specs I got the test here and then bought the frame/lenses off Zenni and saved a fair bit.

Those blocks of diary milk chocolate that used to cost one pound..


Not only have they snuck up to 1.65 but they are waaay thinner.

Everything is away to fuck price wise here, but on a recent trip to the US its truly gone to fuck, its all big money over there for everything and the days of big portions of food are long gone

What are the yanks paying for eggs? I hear it's something ridiculous and people blame Biden?

Anywhere from 7 dollars to 12 dollars for a dozen depending on the type (free range etc) or shop. I think the problem has been brewing for a while with the avian flu, Trump didn't help things though when he sacked and had to re-hire the people in charge of handling the outbreak, some eating places are charging a 50 cent per egg surcharge. The general price of eating out has gone to fuck and the tips on top of it is a killer.

What the fuck it it with ones putting their seats back on planes on long haul flights? I witnessed a fella across from me putting his seat back resulting in the girl behind him putting her seat back which then jammed the fella behind her who was a big lad but he didn't put his seat back even though I could see that he was pissed off, and the 2 in front were average sized. I could also see 2 small cunts in the second row in front of me put their seats back jamming the people in the row in front of me, I mean I can understand if you're big and need the extra room but these clowns have all the room they need and still do it. I'm well over 6 feet and have never put my seat back even though sometimes I'm aching but I manage to adjust my way through it.

You've just read my mind, I was only a flight home yesterday and was thinking what sort of wanker reclines their seat back, could see several people uncomfortable because of the selfish people in front.

Just fly Ryanair lads the seats won't move at all

It's the same here with anything chicken related. I know several restaurateurs who just closed the doors and said fuck it

Football teams that put monochromatic crests on their kits.

You're on about the Chelsea one?.I actually like that.
The one that got me was last night that Newcastle strip having a completely new funky badge, what's that all about? Whatever about changing your strip six times a season surely the badge is sacrosanct.
Wearing jeans and leather, not crackerjack clothes
