Horsefly Bites. Fuck sake, can't even enjoy an aul pair of shorts in peace.

A lot of squirming going on here from our beloved honest to goodness Irish insurance companies.
Fair play to Pearse Doherty TD....

People who enjoy metal music but think they are in a metal band..i.e rock star syndrome.
People who like to post their oh so metal life on  social media for all the world to see. Whats that about ? Who are they posting to ?

I'm guessing other metallers who play their records by candlelight with a big skull next to their turntable.

And a chalice of red wine.

I feel like my life choices are being called into question here.

...rocking a new born baby on their knee.

Rocking being the operative word.

Actually there's a pet peeve - people uploading music to youtube where it's literally a video from their phone of their turntable and the skull/chalice/candles/fake snake or whatever while a record plays in the background barily audibly.

My in-laws are staying with us,  they've been here two weeks,  and they are sound.  But Jaysus,  they are starting to get on my fucking tits.  If you're watching telly,  reading,  listening to music or basically doing anything that demands a bit of focus, tough shit,  there's an anecdote that needs telling/retelling. That time they bought a pair of socks for a really great price,  where they got them, how many socks were in the pair,  how much socks usually cost,  how much they saw a pair of socks being sold for in Dublin yesterday, while they wait in expectation for your response- bewilderment usually- but, ultimately, your response is irrelevant.  The drivel spills forth regardless. Pretending to be deaf while simultaneously listening to music is a new skill I'm developing.

In fairness, if there was any more than two then they got a bargain.

It's only ever two.  But they'll let you know in case you were in any doubt.
