What pisses me off is her surname is Hay. And they've named the baby Jude. I haven't' made this up This took me a lot longer than I'd like to admit. I kept thinking "what's wrong with Jude Hay? Jew Day?" 5 minutes later "What am I missi... ah..." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted February 6, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2020 My wife has a new phone. Therefore she has to have a new handbag. Which to me looks exactly the same as her other ten handbags. Somebody explain women to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddywhack Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 There's a Romanian woman at work who speaks pretty much perfect English, it's just every now and then she may pronounce a word slightly differently or get some wording slightly wrong. She was telling us about something this morning when she said " I was sat in my sofa..". This made the two women either side of her scream with laughter and interrupt to explain, "You don't sit in a sofa, you sit on a sofa!". I don't think they mean to take the piss, they're trying to laugh along with her, but this happens 2 or 3 times a day. I can tell it's starting to wind this woman up and she's said a few times "I want to hear you two speak Romanian." Another one this afternoon was "I was putting on the make up" followed by "Pwahahaha, I think you mean, 'I was putting on my make up'". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AVFC_Hitz Posted February 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2020 I bought the missus a handbag for Christmas. I thought it was quite nice...I saw her mother walk in with it around her shoulder the other day. My wife's current handbag looks like it was pilfered from Chernobyl. I didn't say anything. I just sort of gave up. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 A few things pissing me off today. This one’s standard. I’m having a TV delivered this afternoon. I got an email a few days ago saying it’ll arrive between 3pm -7pm. Fine. My mom very kindly offered to wait at ours whilst we’re at work. I got a phone call from the delivery bloke at 11:50am saying it’s going to be delivered between 12pm and 2pm. 12 o’clock was 10 minutes away so he must know he’s not about to deliver it, surely? Otherwise why call? Anyway, my moms rushed to mine to get there for 12. It’s 2pm now and still no TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Here’s another one. A work email at 11:30 explaining that they’re selling pancakes for £1 on pancake day for charity. ”please let us know how many you would like by 1pm today!” Bit eager seen as it’s 3 weeks away but whatever. “please reply even if you don’t want any so we don’t have to keep chasing you” Absolutely bonkers. 12:45, I have a woman come over to my desk to ask if I want any pancakes, because I haven’t replied to the email. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now been sat in a & e for an hour, bored out of my mind EDIT: actually a genuinely annoying thing is that I was given a card by the receptionist telling me to go to a website on my phone to check whether I should actually be here, but then she booked me in any way, and then having signed up for this stupid website I realise it's data harvesting for a private healthcare provider called babylon health, so that seems cool and like a good thing that should be happening in an NHS hospital Edited February 6, 2020 by HanoiVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
