Misophonia alert: people who constantly sniff. If you’ve got a snotty nose, blow it and get it over with already. I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again.

That sometimes when there's a sentence that is like a song title or chorus I can't help but sing the song in my head whether I like it or not! Like every time I see the "what have you done today?" thread, the song "what have you done today, to make you feel proud" rings in my head and I have no control over it

I think I just strongly dislike improper use of our language - there's an MP and occasional Jeremy Vine guest (not from today) who never pronounces the H-sound at the start of words, it drives me crazy

I hate when people send voice notes instead of typing.

I can't be bothered to listen to you rambling down your crappy mic, either ring me or use IM/text message.

I've almost always got music on, I don't wanna miss that just to listen to you!!!


THOUGH IRONICALLY - I prefer actual phone calls (or video chats) to text based talking. So I'm not sure how to circle that square.

People cooking nsala soup with all shade of obstacles besides catfish, the core protein of the dish. It’s not chicken-and-goat meat soup. Catfish is the fundamental meat. It’s not supposed to be a general meat-fest.

Argh I've not watched that one yet. Thanks for the heads up. I'll reserve it for a day when I need a good cry.






I'm mad! I forgot I took today as leave. I was stressing for the last two days and this morning for nothing. How could I forget Could've enjoyed my lie in instead of grumbling as I got ready

If you like Anime Movies with a dark ending you would have a shot at Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade.

And I have got to watch Grave Of The Fireflies myself eventually.

Torticollis. I didn’t know until yesterday-evening how painful a neck can get without having suffered whiplash or been in an accident. My left side fully radiated crushing pain for hours and hours. Thank God for hot-water bottles

In other news… hot water bottles are great for alleviating migraine pain - just apply heat to the painful area ..

Not sure how I managed to accidentally close this thread, but reopened now.

That happening is a little thing that irritates me.
