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.

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!

But which ones were you referring to though?

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


Boss of 8 years being moved onto different floor (years of irrational joy lie ahead)

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!

    • Hello.  A parcel for someone at 64B Blenheim Grove has been dumped at my address.  If anyone from 64B is in this forum, please get in touch!
    • CPR Dave is anti-dogs. Each to their own  I think my dog has perhaps grown a bit less nervy about the fireworks in the last few weeks, interestingly. Our last dog had no problems with them until he reached old age, when he became petrified.  CPR Dave - it's not just sounds of the metropolis they hate, mine collapses in fear when he hears thunder too 
    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
