The "things that make you realise you're getting older" thread

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

When you see a news story about police raids and all you can think is 'that's a nice front door'.

Haha or it needs a lick of paint.

[Dave D]

I find I admire peoples hedges.

 

A nice well kept hedge says a lot about who lives there.

Now you see I’d never get away with posting that.

 

But if you’re asking, I love beech hedges

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Love a good bush, me

When you’re trying to knock one out and it remains lifeless and floppy in your hand.

"That was a nice door, what a shame they've had to put that through"

 

Or when they're raiding a cannabis farm in someone's house instead of thinking "look at all that lovely green" I'm thinking "imagine that 'leccy bill"

Yep. Having remind yourself to have a wank as you don't want your gun going off on it's own during the night

My anxiety would be at breaking point If I did that, just praying some other vulture doesn't get to the dairylea dunkers bargain before me.

 

I'm not saying I'd do it but taking one of the barometers I apply in difficult situations, whats the worst that could happen?

 

 Isn't it closed at that time? It's a bold move doing the food shop on Christmas Eve though. More daring than running across a busy motorway.

 

Admittedly it wasnt for the main event but we got a vastly reduced turkey at about that time on Christmas Eve last year. I dont know if that was closing time or not. I was assumng it was but a quick online check says the store'l be open til 20.00 this Sunday and an advert on the tv's saying a load of Tesco shops will be open until 22.00. Perhaps that's just Scotland but either way that's a bit much, is it not?

Justifiably heading for the priority seats on the train.

That's the little Tesco Extras, is it not?

I don’t know. I finish work on Christmas Eve at 16.30 and my Christmas starts then. I’ll have no need for shops until we’re running low on bread/milk/double cream on Boxing Day evening

Can I come to yours for Christmas?

[Furmedge]

Checking the council website to look at the collection dates for the bins over Christmas.

I'd close everything on Sundays and Boxing Day. We all need a day off from life.

[manwiththestick]

I forgot to put our black bin out for collection the other morning. It's already full and now I have to wait until 7th of Jan for it to be emptied and we have a Christmas coming up.

 

The are no words to describe how much this is annoying and stressing me out.

[Jose Jones]

My next door neighbours seemed to have a few mates around for a piss up last night, they're still going now at 8.45am.

Even the thought of that gives me a headache.

How cheesy and 90s does that sound...

Try doing your own instead.

Nodding off in the afternoon, waking up at 6:30 and genuinely not knowing if it’s the evening or morning.
