It's contagious, and it's official (aka Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Joy)

Recommended Posts

I, for one, have loved the 'Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage' thread...

It's been a great place to get the irratations of life it 'off your chest' and onto the forum


However, as happiness is now officially contagious, shall we see if we can beat the negative with the positive?

new thread = Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Joy

I will start with that first sip of tea in the morning... total bliss...


Now... I am waiting with fingers crossed, one down and only 315 posts to go...

And on from there Quids, the sound of your child's voice, and your voice, throughout your lives.

My boy is an adult, but when I pick up the'phone and hear the words "Hello Dad" the joy of the unconditional love I gave him as an infant is right there with me.

There might follow a conversation of numpty banality, Swiftian wit or something in between, but we always tell each other 'Love you' on parting.

[quote name='Bredan:-

Would it be in bad taste for me to mention Keira Knightley?s breasts at this point?]



Absolutely not Brendan' date=' well within the spirit of the thread, what ever makes you happy!

Little white ball going in the correct direction


Waking up with huge hangover about 10am, panic its a weekday and you have overslept for work and realising with great relief its the weekend

Aw, thanks for the thanks about my "Tiny Little Things..." thread! I hereby return the favour.


Nothing beats waking up, turning over and looking at the clock and realising it's only ten past five and you can go back to sleep for another nearly two whole hours!


(Conversely there's not much more annoying than waking up half an hour before the alarm goes off. Not enough time to get back to sleep properly, but just long enough that you'll be yawning at your desk all day.)


I think you should change the title of the thread though - apparently you get more hits with a title that sounds like a Fall album!

    • If I buy a soap dispenser and want it to produce foam, do I need to add water? What is the ratio of water to hand soap? 
    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.    
    • Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor
