Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

[Administrator]

When you ask people not to do something simple, and yet they still do it then complain when you tell them off again. I just can't be bothered to ban them, or have I confused that with apathetic aggressiveness.

Or a dissident aggressor

Come on Rolo, can't you see that I'm joking? Well, in part ...

What, you'd prefer active aggression? It's Friday night and I can't be bothered, sorry...

But to explain: I don't agree with some of the decisions Admin made on the Conservative candidate thread today, including deleting a post of mine which wasn't particularly critical. In my opinion - I appreciate Admin has a different view - it has been a bit heavy-handed and not in the spirit of social media, which should give people a voice where they CAN question the context, motivation, background etc - just as they would be able to in a face-to-face discussion, in fact. As I have in the past seen other threads which could really have done with moderation but didn't get it I felt it amounted to selective censorship. Ultimately I think that may undermine the thread - clearly it has done for me anyway - but we'll see I guess.

Not whipping my hankie out of my pocket in time before I sneeze. I'm usually good at this but recently wore trousers with a hole in my coins pocket so had to switch. Put me right off my game.

You keep a snotrag in your pocket? Urgh!

[Help-Ma-Boab]

Work secret Santa. I may as well get up on the morning of the draw and flush a fiver down the pan. ( suggestion of give the money to charity fell on deaf ears)

Finding out my favourite clothes no longer fit because I've put on half a stone in 3 months :(

Louisa.

[Jah Lush]

Must be all that cheese on toast you eat, Louisa.

[Otta]

Hang on, where do you keep your tissues Jah?

[steveo]

By the bed

Yes, since I went to primary school. If I didn't have one or my rosary beads, Mr.Reagan would take out the stick.

You use your sleeve then or have you a handbag?

[Jah Lush]

I use paper tissues and keep them in my man bag, dear. One blow and straight in the bin or more preferable, flushed down the loo.

[Alan Medic]

What do you do when you sneeze? I find tissues too frail unless they are extra strong mansize but they are too difficult to carry around as I don't have a 'man bag' *he he*

Me too, and I was 'on a diet'. Time to make soup...

What RPC said. Same here. Try hard to be good but fail.

This reminds me of the link someone once posted from mumsnet. Now where the hell was that? It was very funny. Jah, do you remember?

[Help-Ma-Boab]

Was it The Cock beaker?

Oh god yes, the knob beaker.

Think you may mean this one:

[Salsaboy]

That's the one!

[Dopamine1979]

That was brilliant. It even made it onto one of those end of the year shows on BBC 3.

[Salsaboy]

I read the entire thread last night and I was crying with laughter all the time.

I was OK until I got to "Friday Night Special". That phrase alone had me in hysterics.
