My dad got a letter last year to go to Blue Bell health centre. Turned up and the receptionist told him he was in the wrong place he should be in Halewood (he lives in Prescot) he showed her the letter and she still tried to make out it was him that got it wrong. He kicked up a fuss and they said they will get it rebooked, a few days later he gets a phone call from a GP who said he has to make the best appointment or he will get put to the back of the queue for another “no show”. Incompetent fucking bastards. 

This nurse was full and full of apologies. It wasn't her fault though.

I should have got a text or a phone call advising me of the cancellation and giving me a new appointment but that didn't happen and she had no idea why.

 

Pissed off about it tbh, I've been struggling lately and I could have done without the appointment in the first place.

Got another one on the 8th of May now which is another pain in the arse as it falls on my birthday.

The kids & me were looking for a film to watch tonight & after watching the trailer for Hot Shots Part Deux, we decided on that. I paid the £3.50 rental for it & 5 minutes in I realised it was the first one, annoying as fuck. Half an hour after that, my Son opens the door of my TV cabinet & what's in there? Only the double DVD box set with both films.

 

What a cunt I am.

Modern trousers have absurdly short flies. Tried on a pair today and the bottom of the fly started well above my junk. Had to mime reaching down to see if it'd look weird at a urinal.

 

Thus far no one I've told about this annoyance gives a shit.

And a low rise.

You can't get a decent pair of kecks/jeans that fit properly these days.

All far to skinny in the leg too. Anything bigger than a 36 inch waist and they look ridiculous.

When tablets split out of the pop out packs - paracetamol we’ve got from some supermarket - own brand in a blue box - every single one of them I’ve had out of it has split and you have 4 pieces to swallow and can taste the bitter shitty taste. We’ve had them ages so I forgot for a while each time I’d have some as there had been a gap, but I remembered this time. They can fuck off

Slice into the foil with a ball point pen.sorted.

Took my kid swimming yesterday. As I was putting our stuff in the locker I scraped my finger, leaving a little scratch that goes across the knuckle and the top of my index finger. 
 

No big deal, except today I’ve got a runny nose and every time I lift my hand to wipe it I’m opening up the scratch again. Making it worse, if anything. It’s very, very annoying.

Use of the word 'game'

 

I've seen this creep to everyday speak.

 

An advert for some detergent I have seen recently l

 

'I used to struggle with stubborn stains on my clothing but since I've swapped to Spunkaway* detergent I've really upped my laundry game.'

 

Deffo also gets used all over LinkedIn I reckon.

 

*may not be the real name.

Shit, that would be really useful- 5 times more effective on those loathsome, map-like stains than the nearest competitor, CumGone.
