Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...

Airport security does my head in. If I'm in a queue I take my jacket off and belt off in the queue so that when I get to the front I just need to empty my pockets then I'm good To go. Other people? They get to the front then spend half an hour getting themselves set. Despite about 100 signs in the queue informing you of what to do. "Oh I didn't realise liquids needed to be in a bag" "Oh yes I do have a laptop sorry I didn't know I needed to take it out" -
The Famous Aberdeen - Season 2022/23
Dons_1988 replied to a topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
I'm not going to go as far as saying Maddison leaving will be a good thing but I do think there's an issue there. I was really happy when we arrived because I thought last season we were too reliant on creating from wide areas and mcginn and more so Hayes performing. I hoped Maddison would add another dimension to our play to keep teams guessing. But as others have said we seem to now just funnel it through him and rely on him. He's young, he's raw and doesn't always make great decisions so we can't place that weight on his shoulders. I'd still love to keep him, I think he has a great career ahead once he gets the mental side right. -
This appointment has shambles written all over it. Let's leave his racist history to one side for a second, the SFA must have known that this appointment would generate a shit storm. So why isn't Regan saying to mackay before they go to press conference "The public don't like this so go out and impress them. Give us tangible ideas, give us the reasons why you are the man for the job" That may have had one or two turn around and say hold on, maybe he does know what he's doing. But no, we get corporate fluff and then stories emerging in the papers that the priority is pushing through this colt idea that the majority of people fucking hate. Seriously why are they so clueless?

This thread is very therapeutic for me. I was born a few generations too late, I can't hack these young p***ks today. I was at work the other day and someone mentioned something about 'smilies' in a message. To which someone piped up "I can't believe you said smilies, don't you know it's an emoji, haha" Proper rage.

Works christmas do tonight, can't be arsed. People get so falsely excited for Christmas, can't wait for people to call me miserable because I don't want to wear a cheap shit party hat from an awful cracker. I am a miserable c**t, to be fair. -

Only just noticed this thread, glad it is here. I'm not long back from time off work with depression. It took me years to get to that point. Probably took me a year to realise and go to the doctors, another year to admit it to my girlfriend (now wife) and another 4 years to admit that I really needed help. I got to such a bad point that I went straight to a psychologist without a referral, just paid the £150 up front. She was unequivocal that I needed to take time off. It took me another few weeks after that to admit to work what was going on. It's disappointing to read that some have had bad experiences with their employers on such an issue, I have to say mine were absolutely brilliant for me. I was told to take as much time as I needed and not once through the 3 months I had off was there any pressure on me to come back. My team around me basically divvied up my responsibilities between them and since coming back I've only been given back what I can initially cope with. I would urge anyone who is like me and felt too ashamed to admit it for years that finally owning up is the best thing I've done and now I am on the road to recovery although still suffer. My last major hurdle is to shift this weight I've put on over the last few years, tried and failed many times but ready for it now. In the new year I'll be taking 3 months off booze and eating shit and getting to gym 5 times a week.

Agreed. Also my experience is that the majority of sufferers would do anything to avoid drawing attention to it never mind posting on social media -

Don't get me wrong depression is very serious and know plenty people who suffer. However, I know plenty that don't feel the need to post garbage on facebook about their feelings everyday -

Oh aye that gets on my tits. Although saying that, I had an ex school friend who constantly posts emotional shite like that. Later found out she'd been in hospital for months with anorexia and depression and came quite close to dying. Felt bad for about 30 seconds then remembered there's no excuse for being a knobend -

The worst are the people who post something like: 'Not for facebook but had just the most awful day[emoji27][emoji27][emoji27]' Basically just screaming please please ask me what's wrong and tell me how much you love me. Fucking f**k off -

Probably more responsible. It opens at 6am because there is demand for it, otherwise they'd never ever do it. Absolute mentalists that queue up for it, something very wrong with them. -

This probably makes me an awful person but that girl who got shot by the taliban for going to school and survived. Awful story clearly but every time I see her on the news I just find her a self righteous pain in the arse. The wife calls me an awful person every time I say it and I still can't find a legitimate reason why I find her so annoying. -

Listened to Ian Wright on the radio yesterday and he kept referring to Alex oxlade chamberlain as "the ox", several times. It reminded me of when andy gray used to refer to yakubu as "the yak" These things irritate me in everyday conversation but ffs you're paid to be on the radio discussing football, just use his fucking name. -

Whilst I'm not trying to sit here and advocate miller as some superstar football manager, I do believe he didn't particularly enjoy his experience as manager and as such hasn't pursued that career since. -

Cringe. Even more cringe considering how pathetic a cup final it ended up being
