A brief round up of things that have occurred to me this week. Actually, it's more a list of things that have peed me off this week. I've kept it to three things. We'd be here all day if I listed everything that annoyed me on a weekly basis :)
1. Coming back to work after a holiday really sucks.
It really does. It's just awful. I don't think it matters what your job is. You could work on a fluffy bed of cotton wool with marshmallows and unicorns and it would still be a dreadful shock to come back after a holiday. Gah.
2. Cadbury sucks (and sometimes I get unfeasibly mad at things that probably don't matter much).
On Wednesday, I got really mad when I read this article about a new chocolate bar that Cadbury is launching. It's not that I'm against new chocolate. In fact I'm all for it. Bring on the chocolate I say. What has really irked me about this is the way that Cadbury has decided to market this to women. The new Crispello bar is supplied in three sections and comes in a resealable wrapper "so it can be eaten one piece at a time and saved for later", presumably so that we can all nibble on it like ladies are supposed to. Which in turn implies that any woman who actually just wants to eat a bar of bloody chocolate is not quite ladylike and is in fact DOING IT WRONG. Well hoohaa to you Cadbury and your astonishingly dimwitted marketing types who probably never spoke to any actual women about this. I am going to continue buying normal sized chocolate bars, when I happen to fancy some chocolate, and I'm going to eat as much of it as I like, even if that is *gasp* the WHOLE BLOODY BAR IN ONE SITTING. And it won't be a Cadbury bar until you cease and desist with this stupid crap. Hurumph.
3. Liam Gallagher is an unmitigated twat who likes to "wind his dogs up" (and sometimes I get righteously mad at things that really matter).
This story makes me feel very, very angry. Apparently Mr Gallagher recently said "I like winding me dogs up. I just stand there with the lead, shaking it for ages until they're shitting and peeing all over the floor. And I'm stood there going: 'Walkies!' Then I sit back down again."
Well let me tell you, Liam. I'd like to get my leather dog lead and "shake" it vigorously at you, in the general area of your testicles. See how you like it. What a [insert rudest word you know here].
PS - Liam, if you're going to make a career out of slagging off your brother, maybe you shouldn't carry on singing his songs at Olympic closing ceremonies etc. Just a thought.

Hhhmm, hope the week after coming back from holiday is somewhat better :-)
ReplyDeleteSomehow I managed to miss the stories about woman choc and bad dog Gallagher - probably as I have been gadding about in Budapest.
And the best thing about being away? Coming home to your lovely Murdoch x.
