Have you soaked your foot in hot water? Should help with removal

From the kettle? Yeah thats a good one

 

Bruce boil a kettle and pr it down your pants. Should be gone in no time. 

 

I'd advise petrol and a match as well but you are a decent fella so heavy scalding and mild pressure pain should do it

The concept of being between sizes. I bought some plain t shirts the other day and they're mostly down to my knees, but the size below was manboob central. 

And it differs wildly between shops.

 

Some "medium" tops make me look pretty trim.

 

Some make me look like I drink far too much San Miguel

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Which I do

As a teenager I was always like a 29 or 31 waist etc but they only ever did them in 30,32,34 etc. Mind you,I wish I was even close to that now.

Then keep worrying, it's agony today.

 

I'm walking like Keyser Söze before the big reveal.

 

 

Yeah soaking your foot in hot water (bearable not scalding) with some salt in it should help and ensure you don't get it infected. A few times a day preferably, until the pain stops or it falls off.

The whole concept of small, medium and large is absolutely ridiculous unless they make it universal.

 

Everything should be labelled with the chest size or waist/length for keks.

Women's clothes sizes are the best. Women's body shapes have got a lot of variables; yet the clothes manufacturers act as if they conform to this simplistic system of "you're a 12; she's a 10; yer ma's a 16".

People being overly loud in the house if they get up really early. 

Talking should be banned until 9am. Me and the missus are the complete opposite. Once she's awake she's up and sprightly whereas I'm like I've climbed out of the ground. Come 9pm though she's ready for bed and I'm wide awake. She snores.

Get some ear plugs, game changer.

My missus snores too. We hardly ever sleep in the same bed.

When wearing earplugs you need to make sure you put them in properly as many people don't. You need to roll them up tightly, pull the ear upwards (the ear canal is kinked slightly) and insert them so it's not obvious to an onlooker that you have them in.

 

If they're like this then they aren't in properly.

Yeah last thing I want is someone walking past my bed and waking me up to tell me they aren't in properly.

Self styled ‘Disrupters’. Either individuals or organisations badging themselves as such.


See that horrific state of affairs that is LinkedIn for the majority of examples, but these cretins can also be found elsewhere. 
 

I’m not a violent man but I’d like to disrupt their faces with my fists.

LinkedIn is also the home of "Influencers" and "Personal Performance Coaches"

Are they bluetooth ones? You're not going to be able to listen to your favourite podcast with them surely?
