Put your central heating back on or fucking turn it up, you tight get!

She had it on earlier! It's not even cold now, she's just annoying. Home is for relaxing clothes and cosiness. I can't relax until it's all relaxing. Same as the big light, I can't fucking stand the big light.

He's saying it bothers him when people come home and leave their coat on.

Exactly. I insist my Mrs takes her coat off after coming home and before cooking my tea, particularly if ive been sat in all day with the heating on.

Online shopping substitutions at Asda.

 

My Mum ordered her shopping online with Asda. One of the items she ordered was a bag of frozen mixed peppers. They had none so substituted them for what. Well, the logical thing would be fresh or nothing, but no.

Frozen mixed cauliflower and broccoli florets.

Just how the fuck are they an appropriate substitution for mixed peppers?.

Dickheads.

The big light only has to go on when you've lost something.

Correct.

Funny shaped jars and yoghurt pots. 

 

I know I sound like a tight cunt, but you end leaving a few spoonfuls in the jars and the same with your yoghurt. 

 

Surely it's as easy to make them an easier dispensed shape than a more awkward one.

The needless dropping of personal pronouns. Why? What does it save?

When I tweet about this later I will be saying 'I just made an inconsequential and tedious post on TLW' NOT 'Just made an...etc.'

Just read this in the voice of Austin Powers.

Friends. It was a bog standard comedy no different to a hundred others. Easy to watch and funny at times but no more significant than Cheers, Mash or The Golden Girls. To hear people getting wet in anticipation of a reunion boils my piss.

Putting MASH in the same paragraph as those other two should be a hanging offence.

Cheers is one of the great American sitcoms. It's brilliant.

I wasn't intending to insult Cheers or Mash. They're both harmless and enjoyable. Friends fans are all cunts, every last one of them.

I wouldnt say MASH was harmless given it was set in the Korean War and its storylines dealt with death and sadness a lot of the time. It was an absolute classic and up their with the greatest comedies of all time.

I can picture Tony and his wife in their separate beds, him with his He-Man quilt cover on, sat up with the big light on eating M&M’s out of a bowl with a spoon and she’s just trying to get her head down. Is it any wonder his wife comes on here to neg people?

Turkish barber rant again. After the first one I talked about on here who shaved four months worth of hard earned pubic hair off my face and neck, I went to a different one the next time I got a haircut. They did an OK job, the beard looked fine but he also took a fair bit more off my chin than I wanted because, well, he barely understood English. £18 for a haircut and beard trim seems a bit steep but it is what it is. 
 

I went back today, explained loudly and clearly that I wanted the lines fixed but I want to keep it growing more on my chin so just a small tidy up on that part of my face would suffice. 
 

Against all odds, he understood what I said and cut my hair and trimmed the beard exactly as I wanted. Did the old burning the ear thing, did my eyebrows. Then he said what sounded like “Face mask wash?” to me a couple of times and seeing as I couldn’t understand what he was on about I shrugged my shoulders, told him I had no idea what he meant and asked what he thought. He then pointed at the price board up on the wall and said “It is same one” so I thought “fuck it” and told him OK. So he gave me a little face mask and then bent me over the sink (oh yeah) and washed my face. Job done. 
 

Get to the counter afterwards to pay the man and he pointed at the option on the board that said £30, which had a list of stuff, including things that I didn’t even get, like a wet shave and a hot towel. I only had £20 cash on me because it was £18 last time I went in there. At first I said “I’ll have to nip out to the cash point mate because I’ve only got a twenty on me” but then I thought actually no, you’re not charging me an extra £12 for splashing a bit of water on my face. Trying to mug me off, you cunts. 
 

So I said “hang on, you pointed at the board and said it was the same one. Eighteen quid. It was £18 last time I was here three weeks ago. If you’d said you were gonna charge me £30 because you washed my face, I’d have said no.” Then the pair of them started talking in Turkish, almost certainly calling me a tit and saying I’ve got a shit ginger beard anyway. Then he tried again insisting it was £30 and I said no, no chance and we had a bit of a stand off. Eventually the other fella who had a better grasp of English just waved his hand and said fine. So I put the twenty on the counter and walked out saying again that if they’d told me they were gonna charge me £12 for washing my face I’d have said no. 
 

I’m pissed off now because he’s done a good job but I can’t go back in there because I had a row with them. Also thinking back, because they were trying to take the piss I shouldn’t have just left the twenty note there, I should have waited for the £2 change as a matter of principle. 
 

I fucking hate Turkey, me. 
 

Fortunately like most High Streets these days there’s no shortage of barbers to choose from. Next time I’m gonna go to one of the two barbers that are a bit more expensive, have longer queues but are run by English fellas.

 

I’m done with the Turkish twats.
