velo army Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 12 hours ago, Honest_Man#1 said: I’m 26, and have never been capable of jumping out of bed when the alarm goes off. It’s nonsense to suggest it’s possible for everyone because it’s easy for you to do. You even mention that you wake up naturally 5 mins before your alarm anyway, so there’s absolutely no ‘shock’ to your body. The worst thing about my 90min snoozathon is that I have a wonderfully expensive alarm clock that gently wakes me with a fancy light and stuff. I don't get the shock to my body. I just overestimate how much I want to wake up at 6am instead of 7.30am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 It’s funny hearing all these story’s about folk waking up and them missing out the bit about having a sly w**k before actually getting out the bed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't. Pressing snooze is a habit which can be broken. Claiming it is an impossibility to do so is justifying behaviour. As for the depression comparison... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 It is absolutely a virtue and valuable characteristic to be able to wake up immediately. Anyone who takes a couple of minutes is subhuman scum who should be ashamed of themselves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rambunctious Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 My wife has a serious aversion to Mayonnaise, Salad Cream, Aioli and other similar condiments. It's not quite a phobia as she calls it, but she absolutely will not eat the stuff, will not allow it in the house, and even turns her head and looks the opposite direction when walking down that aisle in the supermarket... This "phobia" in itself is a little annoying as I enjoy some garlic or peri-peri mayo as much as the next guy, and not being able to keep any in the fridge isn't ideal. However, what really annoys me is her inability to mention this "phobia" when ordering food from a cafe or restaurant. So many times we've been eating out in a nice restaurant and she's had to send a plate back because it's had some mayo-like "emulsion" or some such shite on it. When this inevitably happens she blames the restaurant for not mentioning this ingredient explicitly on the menu. The first time it happened I probably agreed with her, but every single time since I have not. She still acts shocked, angry and annoyed whenever this happens as if its the first time. Every single time I will ask her why she didn't just say at the time of ordering that she doesn't like or is allergic to mayo, and every single time she'll go in a huff at me for "taking the restaurant's side" over hers... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bernardblack Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 General timekeeping/leaving things to the last minute. Had some relatives visiting today to sit in the garden and we literally did nothing all morning....head to the supermarket at 1215 and suddenly Mrs BB is stressed and goes “I can’t believe how busy this is...the family will be here at 1230” Me questioning why we were in the supermarket at 1215...having done nothing all morning, when they were arriving at 1230 was met with a “well I didn’t know the supermarket would be this busy” Insanity 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
