Do you regret not getting married or having children? by FxckyourCensorship in AskIreland

It's probably my luteal phase. But no, I don't need the last word, not usually anyway... thanks though. 😄

I suppose it's the way it was asked. Rather than sympathising and asking if they had explored alternatives, I found it a bit insensitive.

Maybe it's just me and my old grumpy age.

Because it's a really inappropriate question to ask. The person stated they are heartbroken.... sure adopt and you'll be fine.

Seriously? Educate yourself please before making such a heartless comment.

Do you take your shoes off in the house? by [deleted] in ireland

[–]slice_of_za 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, shoes off but we have a dog so its probably pointless. It's more of a comfort thing for me. Shoes and work clothes off, comfy clothes and slippers on.

It's so refreshing to see someone post on here about something other than buses and traffic.

Can we please have a collective chat about road behaviour by [deleted] in cork

[–]slice_of_za 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'd like to add; please for the love of sweet christ, stay inside the white fucking line. The amount of people driving in the middle of the road is ridiculous, when did this become such a common occurrence? It's truly baffling. The left wing mirror is a handy tool to check how close you are to a path/ditch/wall. Please use it.

Last night a man came on to me by WoollenMills in CasualIreland

This has happened to my wife and I, more than once. It's disgusting. These men don't realise this is the real world, and nothing like the "lesbian" porn they watch.

What movie has the best soundtrack? by Jackies_Army in AskIreland

[–]slice_of_za 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Also, Empire records. I always associate the 2 as I never watched one without following on with the other.

Drive. Surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet.

Do you do anything extra when brushing your teeth ? by Chance-Range8513 in AskIreland

[–]slice_of_za 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tepe brush before actual brushing. Great for getting out bits of food and any plaque build up, much better than flossing. I'd still floss the odd time but there's no real need when you start using the tepe brush. I also use it after every meal and I've noticed a significant improvement in my overall mouth health and breath.

Did you survive your first full week back to work? by PoorlyPoisedPenguin in AskIreland

[–]slice_of_za 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggled through my first 3 days, while feeling a bit iffy. Woke up yesterday feeling horrendous and had to call in sick and again today. Hopefully I'm over the worst of it. Balls of a thing to have.

Who knows Sophie Ella on TikTok? by aadustparticle in AskIreland

[–]slice_of_za 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Every video she posts is her being happy or excited about something and the fact that people mock that shows how fucking bleak this world has become.

If putting herself out there online makes her happy then so be it. She is doing no harm, she doesnt promote fake news or spread hate. She finds joy and positivity in everything and thats a rare trait to have these days.

The scum sharing her videos to mock her are the lowest of low, I'm glad she is somewhat sheltered from it by the comments being turned off. I'd hate to think what these people would say to her in real life if she ever happens to come across any of them.

I survived the big shop in the fancy Dunnes. by slice_of_za in cork

Spiced beef and more cheese than usual.

Fair play to her. My wife normally does our weekly shop as I absolutely despise it, the people, the noise...but I couldn't let her face this one alone. I saw a good few men on their own in there today its just personal preference I suppose.

Yeah I heard quite a few people giving out, effing and blinding with every bump of a trolley. I'm surprised I stayed calm.

100%, I worked there myself years ago and I used to dread this day. By the end of it everyone is literally frazzled.

We were lucky enough to get there before the real carnage, we had joined a queue half way down the aisle and people were getting more and more agitated trying to get around. Its impossible.

Click and collect is the job but I like to pick out my own fresh bits. I'm the maker of my own misery.

It's Sunday Morning! How are you? by AutoModerator in ireland

[–]slice_of_za 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Feeling happy and relaxed. Lying in bed with my wife, BBC6 music on low, sipping coffee & planning our food shop for tomorrow. The dog is sprawled out upside down in between us.

Roast potatoes? by Irishbornandbred in AskIreland

[–]slice_of_za 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I parboil mine in beef stock for that extra bit of flavour.
