I mean, TiBB is rife with arguments and infractions/bans (I’ve just got back from one). Lots of people have even left over the years and switched to Discord because of some of the toxicity on here. Yet every single one of us still here choose to be active posters. Toxic dynamics don’t necessarily mean a whole medium is toxic, but in the case of this beloved forum of ours I’m not saying ir is or it isn’t.

You’ve literally just been arguing Markhle’s supposed blight (vain attention-seeking) within the last few days. A whole thread got deleted because of the likes of you. But I’m not going back to TiBB prison so I’ll just not say more at this point. I’ll not say more.

Anyway (to get back on-topic), tattle-tales and notorious gossips. 2 types of people in this life I hate with a burning passion.

And the fact that the smell of cucumber travels so far. Yuck.

Tinnitus!

Just caught a bit of today’s Classic Corrie’s (2006) reruns and I’m just wondering who lets a 15-year-old (Dev’s annoying daughter) behind a counter when they can’t serve what a lot of the clientele will be looking to buy (alcohol, cigarettes) if they’re not supervised by someone older. I’d just be pissed if I couldn’t buy my Red Stripe or bottle of Lambrini because the owner got pushed into leaving a kid who should be preparing for her GCSE mocks behind the counter all alone.

Another thing. When you’re bored out of your mind and someone recommends going for a walk.

Not being able to shift for the amount of broken glass on the floor in some places. What are they trying to achieve by smashing bottles everywhere?

I’ve said jt again but I’ll say it again; depression (*mild* depression)and anxiety being considered together as a light conglomerate. Make it stoppp.

Meta AI. Just why?

walks a great mood lifter, you have to raise your heart beat though, so not an amble a proper walk

I just don’t find that with walks. I walk enough as it is.

Big ting: the fact that there are people out there who after today’s Corrie are gonna be like “no midwife would act like that; they’s gon. play the race-card”. Midwives and nurses like that do exist, and that’s the whole point they’re doing this storyline with Dee-Dee. Modern Corrie gets a lot wrong but this is actually accurate and true to life, in a show that’s now overrun with Manny gangsters and unnecessary misery.

If a small thing falls off the bed, it can't just fall off the bed... It has to fall off the bed and into a completely different ****ing dimension that's totally cut off from our world.

Not being able to find a specific pen. The one day I needed a BiC-style pen. Today I had to go into Walgreens and pay $3 for a 20 pack of them when I only needed 1 (it's to go into a machine so I can calibrate it, it has to be a certain size)

…I’m pretty sure that I read somewhere that there is a specific area under the bed…like a black hole type thing and if your dropped item falls into that, it could be several years that it’s trapped in there are that it makes its way to the surface again to be found…true story…

When tech misbehaves without your ability to intervene and it has unintended social consequences. Sigh.

Oooo i really agree with this. I have met some foul people working in the NHS. People always imagine nurses are like angels... Hmmm... Hell's Angels, some of them. When my grandmother fell ill before she died, we removed her from the Norfolk & Norwich hospital because their elderly care is positively Third World. In fact, the Third World has more respect for their elders probably. We were lucky to be able to go private when my children were born, I remember the excruciating horror show my sister in law endured when my nieces were born and I had no faith in the NHS. And another thing... We're always being told the nation has an obesity problem but SO MANY nurses are enormous. And they think people are going to be advised by them. Good job they did away with the smart nurses uniform and now let them all slob around in scrubs and Crocs.

Dog-owners letting their dogs invade people’s personal-space boundaries and come up to them, thinking that everyone’s a dog-person. For all you know, the random person walking past could’ve been attacked by a dog as a kid, their baby might’ve, they might be allergic or they just-plain might not like dogs. All-those reasons are just fine. It’s on owners to know that not everyone’s comfortable with dogs.

The fact that it takes longer for your ’phone to charge than for the battery to deplete. Falling asleep with it at 37%, it’s annoying waking up to a dead ’phone that you hadn’t even used all night. Battery shouldn’t be going when you’re not pressing anything.
