Just don't get the toothpaste and conditioner muddled up. You might end up with a smooth tongue and white hair.

My hair needs no help going white - it's getting there fast enough on its own.

Also Nair. Not happened to me, but I know of friends that fell victim to this by way of prank.

People being dicks online and then doubling down on their dickish behaviour when called out on it - it shouldn't be a surprise but it really narks me off

Especially when it is only being done to get the reaction it got. When will the self righteous learn.

If the self-righteous ever learned, TIO would get a lot quieter.

We need a 'negative karma' button.

Maybe if a post gets 5 negatives, the poster is barred for an hour. 10 negatives, barred for a day, etc.

I'm fine with the negative karma button, but people will end up getting silly bans because they are being brigaded by the all the arseholes.

If you can annoy those who think they have some right to tell the rest of what we can think and say that much, you should get a BE coffee mug.

I lost my sensitivity about a week after being posted to Kilburn. Sensitivity and humour didn't work on the Irish.

Oh, our landlord also emailed today asking when would be a good time on Saturday to do a walk around and get her keys back.

I stupidly said a sensible 5pm should be good, give us time to vacuum and mop the floors etc.

Should have said 11.59pm...because our lease says we have till midnight...we're moving a couple miles across town and she lives 20 miles away
12.01am she can attend in her time

I hate Wells Fargo, they charge $12 monthly fee on a savings account paying 0.01% interest. I set up a savings account to put some money in for my kid and was not informed they charge a $12 monthly , which is independent from other accounts.

I'm heading north back to my roots for two weeks shortly and have touched base with some old friends. We decided to get together for lunch on a particular day and I said that I would love either Italian or the diner. We settled on the diner.

Another friend, late to the party, responses to the email to all of us and mentions going to an old favorite Italian restaurant of our youth. I responded that Carol and Chris voted for the diner but that perhaps she and I could get together for Italian on another date.

The b**ch Carol decides to e-mail everyone in our graduating class to meet us at the Italian restaurant on a different date altogether (one I am not readily available for) and she just out and out cancels the plans for the 4 of us to met up for lunch at the diner.

She misinterprets all emails and conversations. While lunching before I moved in June, I told the 3 girls that for my next milestone birthday I was going to Vegas and was going to see a male strip show and that the 3 of them are welcome to come if they so chose. We all will celebrate that milestone the same year.

Carol takes it upon herself to email 156 people of our graduating class and telling them that I am arranging a reunion for our classmates in June 2018 and it will be in Vegas.

H! E! L! L! O! She is nuts. Has to be in charge of everything and misconstrue everything.

Why do some people have to be the leader in all things ???? Always right. No one allowed an opinion but themselves.
