The advertising psychologists must have had a field day on this one. The introduction of compulsory âwarningsâ into the ads has actually turned out to be manna from heaven, because they can pack it with reassuring words and phrases like safe, responsible, knowing limits, help, etc etc. âWe Play Togetherâ ffs, makes it sound like fun for all the family doesnât it. When itâs more likely to be some poor bloke living in a fucking bedsit having sold his house to pay the bookies and still canât stop betting.
Back in the day, the bookies was viewed as something shady, youâd feel a bit of a wrongâun just being seen going into one. There was a reason for that, itâs insidious, costly and dangerous, and I donât understand how gambling gets a free pass from our glorious leaders nowadays when they seem so eager to clamp down on literally every other vice.
Theyâve all but outlawed tobacco use to any new smokers. But youâre probably onto something there, gambling has horrific financial effects on addicts but doesnât have much physical effect on them for the NHS to soil itâs hands or rack up bills on.
Who the fuck was it who recommended the repair/recycle to fix a broken household appliance.
Our tumble dryer refused to dry yesterday so I searched YouTube for the fix and this is what I got.
OK so I dropped the dryerâŚit wasnât heavy, just awkward.
Tried to see if I could repair the now substantial damage but just thoughtâŚfuck it!
I bought a new oneâŚarriving Tuesday, wish me better luck.
I had identified the fix and had removed the offending heater element. I was lifting the fucker onto a shelf in the garage to get it out of the way when it wriggled free and dashed its brains out on the garage floor.
I blame Chambers, he was away visiting his dying Mother. Inexcusable.
The housemaids lending my tools to their family and not bringing them back.
It really pisses me off when I want to do something. Go to find the right tool for the job and its not where I bloody left it.
Same goes with the kitchen draws why do women feel the need to reorganise them when they are fine the way they are. knives forks and spoons in the top drawer all the other shit in the lower drawers. It boils my piss.
The housemaids cooking prawn crackers in oil on the outside grill taking the crackers out and going inside to eat them whilst leaving the hot oil on the gas which spontaneosly ignites. Shit safety training kicks in turn of gas get wet towel and drop over hot stove and boiling oil leave until cool.
Mrs P_F & MiL are off to stay with her big Sis next weekend.
I have a Hall Pass & a Sofa bed.
Annoyance? Flights here arenât cheap none of my mates can make it
Gonna have to try out The Singer Club alone,
What could possibly go wrong?
Itâs those Godawful new telly adverts for their poxy delivery service. Most irritating bollocks to hit the screens since We Buy Any Car, or Motorway.
