    I am rubbish at keeping things updated, completely forgot to moan the last couple of days.....

    Watched the last skypoker tv show last night, great line up, it was like going back in time, really sad to see it go and I hope all involved go onwards and upwards.

    The 'you had one job' award of the day goes to my wife....

    She took daughter to swimming and was entrusted the task of bringing in our treat for the week (takeaway chinese).

    Being a creature of habit I always go to the same place and we order a tried and tested combination, so naturally she takes it upon herself to go to a completely new takeaway and change the order with the help of darling daughter........I mean really!

    Bought two bags of donuts (one jam filled and one custard filled) for £1 in The CO OP, yes really£1......... if I go into Krispy Kreme they won't even let me smell a donut for that price. (this is a semi positive post to offset some of my moaning)

    I bought an premium scotch egg from Waitrose. There was no egg inside it.

    Perhaps they thought the additional calories would ruin your intelligence?

    Stuck behind a bin truck in traffic.(down wind)

    ^^ Bin trucks^^......add to that delivery trucks that decide to deliver at 8.30 in the morning.

    Obviously switching on hazard lights makes it fine, doesn't affect rush hour traffic flow at all.

    Cheaters accusing cheaters 

    Players moaning about bad beats in freerolls .

    People moaning about pennys and points.

    How lucky they are that the worse thing in their lives are missing out of a freeroll or a promotion not suited to them.

    Read a diary from Tom or the loss of a trooper like ice tiger to see what maters.

    Could go on but you should get the point.

    Be happy and thank your lucky stars every day if that is the worst of your problems.

    Excellent thread!

    I have missed a few days so will try to catch up.

    To quote LmfaoAllin the things that "drive me to near Michael Douglas in Falling Down" are...

    1. The automated Tesco cashier telling me my Clubcard points 'add up'. Do they really think I do not know this?

    2. The automated Tesco cashier telling me to enter my item from the menu or "have a browse". How many levels of mad would you look if you chose your shopping by browsing the categories on the checkout machine? This is just bad advice, don't listen to him!

    3. Being told to "Put your PIN in and press enter". I know I may look utterly stupid but even I have actually figured out how the 'chip n pin' machine process goes down!

    4. Automated Tesco cashier voices that assume you have a single digit IQ.

    The absolute winner though that never ceases to drive me bat sh!t crazy...

    5. Holding the door open for someone and they walk straight past you without so much as a 'Ta' like I am their sodding butler. If I were Michael Douglas a la 'Falling Down', I would rip the door off it's hindges and chuck it at them.

    Okay, weight off! Maybe, just maybe, I can now survive this upcoming visit to Tesco :)

    Annoying as it it we have to remember a lot of people need a lot of help, a small but vocal number of people support that team from glasgow that play in Tesco colours, so I guess its aimed at them ;-)

    Seems ages since I last posted.......simply not many things annoying me enough to warrant posting, this is of course worrying as it likely means something major is going to happen soon.....

    On the poker front, I find it equally amusing and annoying to see peoples reactions when they post something for discussion, whether it be a stark truth filled response or something tongue in cheek. If you don't want answers or advice why bother posting?

    Anyway, hope tomorrow is rubbish so I have something to post about.

    The seasonal appearance of Ferrero Rocher. Nice wrapper.Inside, bland, disappointing poo.
    Still, there are other choices.

    I really don't get why they need to shove canned laughter in our faces....if it's funny we should decide...American comedies are the worst for this.

    I think this bit should go into the happy thread.
    A player was sat out in a dym last night. I was the short stack and we got to the bubble. Obviously we don't say anything ourselves but hope that common sense prevails. I was delighted when the big stack said that we should all play sensibly. Less so when he then opened every single pot. The away player came back and it was game on again.
    I have to admit that I took great pleasure in doubling up through the big stack and then busting him 2 minutes later..
