Minor complaints thread (2 Viewers)

not a complaint really; but a chap in the UK i occasionally deal with just pinged me on teams to let me know he'd been talking to an irish person.
that was essentially the content of the message - basically 'hey, i was talking to an irish person yesterday. thought you should know'.

this was the same lad i had the following exchange with a few years ago, while waiting for some others to join the teams call:

'Hi mb! are you enjoying the Jubilee?'
'well, (name), to be honest, i haven't really being paying much attention'
'oh really? why not?'
'well, (name), i'm irish'
'oh... (pause)... how's that working for you?'
'uh fine, i guess?'

one of the other english lads had to turn his video off towards the end of that exchange.

I'm sure he meant well.

Ooh, said housemate, what's this old toaster doing in the cupboard, let's plug it in....

Well, I said, there's a reason that toaster has been in the cupboard. It's definitely repairable, but testing it without checking was not great.

I was shaving when all the lights went out. Hilarious facial hair ensued.

Were they protestant though?

Were they protestant though?

Hadn't even thought of that. I guess the sentence was somewhere in the back of my mind.

And yes.

Need to go for a scan. Hospital rang me yesterday, "we've a cancellation tomorrow at 2:30 can you come in."

"Yeah sure."

"Great see you then, you need to be fasting."

I'm hungry.
