Things We Hate

[mowgli]

It's a rip off that's why i stopped doing the lottery, it should have been given to Richard Branson who wanted to run it not for profit but just good causes.

I gave up lotto when it went upto £2. I play Thunderball instead which has fixed prizes. Win fairly regularly and rather than just stick winnings back in my wallet I collect them all together over a year. Last years pot was over £250.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Aaand how much did you spend on them?

 

[mnb089mnb]

Lottery is a "stupid tax" basically.

You get better odds chucking darts at a list of football fixtures.

It's the dream of 'the big one' that keeps it going.

..... at 3 in the morning, stinking of wine when I had to be up at half 5 for work. Big row in the offing I think when I get home....

You should all split up with your partners if you hate each other so much.

Read that as 'offy' first time round and was wondering how that would help matters.

Life aint all sunshine and rainbows, it's a mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. Aint nobody, you me, or anybody, gonna hit as hard as a girlfriend. But a girlfriend aint about you can hit. It's about how hard you can GET hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward! That's how relationships is done!

(rocky... ish)

You'd actually have been better off with one less number. That's fucking ridiculous.

I was in the shop the other day waiting to be served and I saw a scratch card that cost £10. Ten fucking quid? Wtf!

That's inflation for you. Freddos cost £8.60 these days too.

And are half the size.

They've been around for ages, I used to work in a supermarket on the kiosk, and a few people used to buy them, I once had one guy buy 14, one after another, with very little gain (think he won £40), we unfortunately didn't have the same power as a betting shop to refuse service, however...

Eurosport and their sodding adverts meaning you miss the start of every frame in the snooker. God bless the BBC.

I mentioned I started a new job last Monday... Well, that afternoon I started to develop a cold (aww, diddums). It got worse as the week went on. Spent Friday - Monday literally in bed unable to get up, went into work yesterday and was sent home within 10 minutes of arriving which I think is an amazing first impression. Today is the first day I've been able to properly sit up at the computer without feeling like I'm going to pass out. Oh, I've also not made it to the toilet quick enough three times in this period.

Fuck. My. Life.

 

[SALTIRE]

I've got a cold lingering as well but not as bad as that though! Mind you I have woke up with bad ringing in my ears hopefully it's just due to my system being bunged up and not a sign my tinnitus is getting worse.

Oh, and following the demise of my iPod Classic - 120GB (2007-2016 RIP) I have looked at getting me another portable music device.

Since when the fuck was:

a. Capacity reduced so much
b. Everything douched up so much. I want to play music, not check my emails whilst watching the latest film and taking a selfie. Christ.

It's going round mate, I've been struggling for about a month with it. Luckily well over the worst now, but if it's what I had it's gonna take some right shifting

Terrified when death finally comes to my 2013 iPod (160GB). How did you get yours to last 9/10 years? I'll start on that. As it is this one is showing no signs of ageing.

I guess the iPod classic has its add-ons (mine has a few neat puzzle games, and does pictures/videos if you fancy your battery lasting ten minutes). They're hidden by the fact this thing plays music though, and lots of it. 60 days of music in your pocket. Sigh. I remember having a device that could hold like 15 songs (I'd compress my favourites down to 128kbps and 96kbps to manage that), would display the song by its file name, had a cap on it hiding a male USB jack which vanished after a couple of weeks, listened to the same damn roster of songs twice/thrice a day every school day, envied the rare owner of an iPod and was seriously green-eyed about these rumoured Creative Zens that people had, which could apparently hold 16GB of yer music.

The iPod touch holds the same amount of music as those Creative Zens did 12 years ago, for the same price, except it has the same minibar of apps I'm not arsed with as my phone does. Considering almost anyone would have a smartphone in their pocket if they also had an iPod Touch in it, I'm pretty perplexed.

A ghost itch. In my case my back itches every so often and no matter how much I try to scratch the itch it never goes away until I stop thinking about it.

It's like my own body is playing psychological warfare on myself.
