Having a sore knee, & think it's due to trapped cartilage, which i've had before..

[Elzar]

When people try and announce words how someone from a different country would (for example names in football) - They then end up copying their accent instead. I find the Spanish players end up with this most from commentators

It would be like someone asking Gerrard how to say his name, and then saying it in a scouse accent every time they go to say it.

Knees are bastards and the bad news is that they only get worse as you get older.

I've got this recurring shoulder/neck crick thing that has flared up again. Happens in my sleep, a silent killer

Because world domination is expensive...

I had a pain in lower back, buttock and upper thigh, googled those exact symptoms and self diagnosed sciatica in seconds. Such a total pain and massively makes me feel old as I can't move about easily. Thankfully also googled stretches to help it go away which probably saved me all kinds of money seeing a US doctor.

been there, about 5 years back.  sciatica is a terrible pain and ages you 15 years in 15 minutes. 

the stretches are great though to deal with it.

I tend to lie on my side and curl towards a loose foetal position in bed, including bending my head forwards.

I've had [genuine] whiplash a few times over the years, and a few months ago started waking up with a severe pain at the base of my skull that would last all day. Started trying to keep my head tilted a little backwards when I go to sleep, even angling the pillow to assist.

It's really helped. I still wake up some mornings, where I've inadvertently bent my head forwards in my sleep, but nothing like how it was.

My knee's also fucked.

I get it periodically and it's horrible.

I used to do community care work and just standing in a certain position whilst giving a disabled client a shave could kick it off.

By far the worst was when I was lifting the dog off the back seat of the car. A disc in my lower spine popped and trapped the sciatic nerve.    Holy crap, that was the worst pain I've ever felt. My vision went whiteout for a few moments too. I was flat on my back for two weeks straight as I simply couldn't move. I just had to wait it out until the disc shrunk back and came off the nerve.

Similar happened to a woman I was talking to once. She said it was more painful than childbirth.

Psoriasis Fuckin horrible having it in this kind of weather

Omg that sounds excruciating!
Least you know not to talk to women

[reddebs]

TV presenters, news reporters etc who speak as though they are addressing a class of 5yr olds.

Have you reached the reading glasses stage yet?

That’s when you know you are truly fucked.

[Mumm-Ra]

Something I see on here a lot that annoys me:

Bizarre post.

Weird post that.

Truly odd that you would say that

Baffling comment

etc etc.

This fake gaslighting bullshit, where people act like someone's saying something that they can't even fathom. You can fathom it, you just disagree. Just say so instead of this fake confusion shite. Unless you're going for this effect in your posts, in which case fine, have at it I suppose:

[Mumm-Ra]

I’ve probably just inadvertently dissed half the board there, sorry 
Just a form of internet arguing that does my head in

[Elmo!]

Weird post that.

[rowan_d]

Smoke alarm test beep is going but it's too early in the morning for me to actually do it

[ChaChaMooMoo]

Weird post that.

Annoying as well.

How was that one missed.

People losing their shit over a paint advert.

Sounds like it really caused a splash.

I assume that 'comedian' tweeting Crown Paints puts all her material out in the open before going on stage or on TV so she knows what is or isn't offensive. c*nt, just like all the c*nts losing their shit over Chelsea v Spurs being a 'man's game'

[Crosby Nick]

I think people are just being over emulsional.

[Lee1-6Liv]

The royal mail managed to lose a 1st class signed for parcel I sent on Thursday.

We shouldn't gloss over it though.

[SamLad]

We shouldn't gloss over it though.

yep, be a mistake to just brush it off.

[SamLad]

need to get the unvarnished truth.

[afc tukrish]

Pollocks...

[SamLad]

some might bristle at the suggestion of course.

[SamLad]

needs to get more coverage, this issue.

[SamLad]

LOL nice.

Tom Reid Wilson.

No idea who that c*nt is, but I hope to never see him on my TV again.

[redbyrdz]

Coming home and finding a rag full of covid lies and other absolute bullshit in my letterbox. Go to fuck!! 

[slaphead]

People chatting away when you meet them somewhere, and they ask "any holidays ? " , when the only reason they ask is because they are going somewhere, and are dying to tell you all about it.
I've started now answering them and changing the subject, the confusion on their face as to why you didn't ask it back is funny

[rafathegaffa83]

Speaking of holidays:

1) The instagrammers who clog up certain scenic spots taking ages to get their perfect shot, when anybody else is taking a couple of quick snaps and then moving on.

2) The trend of families with small children (I'm talking like under 5) in which every family member has a full size carry-on.  I'm sorry but a 5 year old does not need a personalized carry-on   so their parents can avoid checked luggage fees, while slowing the boarding time for everyone else

Similarly (and I'm not sure if this is a new thing or the pandemic has opened my eyes to it), but the amount of idiots on holiday who seem to be in their own little bubble without any consideration for their surroundings or others. It's as if the mindset is I'm going to do whatever the fuck I want, how I want, when I want

Weird thing to be annoyed about in the current climate of people barely being able to afford a holiday. You aren't getting to your destination any earlier if you board first.
How much is it delaying your boarding by, maybe 15 seconds while the parent sticks the kids bag in the locker? Is your time really that precious?

The huge price hike at Costa coffee.

This is nothing new, always been that way, most people are crap at holidaying.

Costa Coffee is shite anyway. If it's possible, find a local cafe/roaster serving proper speciality coffee.
