I've always wondered how on earth people can eat while walking. A piece of fruit or a snack bar or something, fair enough but I see people walking down the street tucking into sandwiches and even full breakfasts. There's something a bit disgusting about it, i find.

How do you expect people to eat on the move?

All the freshly ground coffee is gone. Now all I have is instant. Ho hum.
If I like it, It's probably awful.

From a different point of view, my guts will go crazy if theyre not allowed to settle for a couple of minutes after eating. Gaviscon at the ready.

You grind coffee beans there and then!?

In comes Kate, the crusher of theory that freshly ground coffee is a bean that was ground 2 days ago, and no longer after that.

That probably makes sense. Either way, in comes Kate..!

Why is it that when in a pub, or walking through town if foreign ugly old men are ignored when they try talking to girls their automatic response is to call them slags?! Where is is the logic in that?

A bloke was quite nasty a few weekends ago, started talking to me at the bar when I was trying to get served so I blanked him, so he started talking really loudly (to himself) about how I was an ugly stuck up bitch.

It always makes me laugh how women are perfectly attractive enough to chat up in the first place, yet as soon as the chat-upper get rebuffed, suddenly the woman is hideous. :lol: Silly people.

Something similar can happen with men too. I was called a faggot by a woman that began chatting me up but I had no interest in and politely declined. Men aren't the only stupid ones it seems :P

Some really awful pics from a night out have made their way on Facebook. I didn't realise just how much of an ugly spanner I look when wankered.

Considering the level that they're playing at, it's quite a poor first half of rugby, especially on Ireland's part.

Feeling really drained and just down in general today, but seemingly for no reason. Just one of those (admittedly odd) days. :|

Can't find my pencil case the one time I actually feel like being creative, and the house is too damn hot.
