That John post invalidates all of John’s posts
The guy who played Neil from the Office was on Pointless and had to guess words ending in ...UG.
And he didn't go with Slug.
Just shows you how shit the Swindon lot really are.
I somehow sprained my foot whilst sleeping last night.
For all of today one half of my right foot has been in serious pain. It feels like a combination of cramp and like stepping on a Lego brick.
Fucking gardening really is the national sport around here. I hope it pisses rain for the next month.
Mainly a Twitter thing but people posting dead celebrities birthdays. Ooh, Alan Rickman would have been 74 today, who could ever give a shit?
Makes you think, though, doesn't it?
And then presumably a slew of RIP Alan, sad news follow ups when most of the idiots think it's just happened because the story resurfaces on the BBC most read sidebar (aka The Tony Hart Effect).
I quite like those but only when the person died abnormally young, some time ago.
Jim Clark's 84th was just before lockdown started.
It would have been Madeleine McCann's 17th last month.
A video is being banded around by work of people passing a rugby ball from one shot to the next. It ends with this:
The text not being centered in that bar really bothers me. I feel like it just makes them look so amateur. Or maybe that's just me being odd?
I'm a twit
The text is centred? The building isn't.
The grass and hedges etc of the grounds of the apartment block I live in get cut every fucking week. So one afternoon every week all I hear is dickheads outside with loud lawnmowers and hedge trimmers when I'm trying to work. Please fuck off, it doesn't need cut that often.
You'd love it hear. People mow every fucking day.
Is this the littlest thing that's ever fucked anybody off in this thread?
Baz's, that is.
Boydy moaning about there being too much gardening going on in his grounds. Next he'll be complaining about the footmen's shoes not being polished properly.
My cunt neighbour can't power wash his driveway for the next 6 weeks
Not that that fucks me off, but him doing it twice weekly did.
The she-devil at work, like fucking clockwork, every day at 14:43 complaining about how hungry she is.
Probably because you only have an orange for lunch, you absolute fucking idiot.
The woman doing the narration on this audiobook putting accents on different characters. Look, just read the fucking book, I don't need dodgy Russian accents on Putin to make it more authentic.
I'm hungry and I had a bacon sambo at midday.
The word 'sambo'. It just sounds so childish.
I've recently been 'reading' on audiobook a very good American golf book about Scotland which involves the east coast bore-on narrator attempting a Scottish accent every time the author (it's a travelogue style thing) encounters a local. Based on that, every single person in Scotland, man woman or child, sounds like Groundskeeper Willie doing Brigadoon.
I feel ya on the gardening one, the council ones came yesterday to do the road and I had to build eggbox barricades to get through a Teams call. More offensive was the heavily tattooed ex-convict operating the driven lawnmower who fucking flattened beautiful patches of wild flowers as if they were ethnics.
Just had a tesco delivery arrive at my parents' house instead of my flat. Could have sworn I had my flat set as the default address.
Excuse to visit now.
It was probably packed full of lube and canesten.
I’ve only seen mine once in all this. It’s the only element of lockdown that wasn’t class.
I've not seen mine since pre-lockdown. Talk to them plenty but I really want to see them. Hopefully this mask from China doesn't take ages to turn up.
I see mine every Saturday morning as I do their shopping and drop it out to them.
I shag mine.
My phone is fucked with a reboot loop thing. How does one survive this sort of thing in the modern world? I can't get to a repair shop until Saturday.
Can you not force a factory reset on it?
Samsung S10. I can't turn it off, can only do the manual reboot and then it's back to the loading screen. Never boots the OS.
My pixel did a complete death loop not long ago and I had to do a factory reset - thankfully most of my stuff is on google cloud so it lost a day. It's not too catastrophic to do a full reset.
I'm looking into this but I can't find out how much stuff I've got on the Samsung cloud because it won't let me log into said without doing a two-step verification including a phone call, which, fucking evidently, is not available to me.
Tech companies are honestly the fucking pits.
It should be on a daily basis Jim.
What about contacts etc? I can deal with losing messages or whatever, but contacts would be a killer.
Should be backed up to your google account.
Only if you have Gmail set as the default account for your contacts. On a Samsung you can also have Samsung account or phone as default or a mixture of all.
I'd definitely be backing up to Google if I got into the phone though.
@Jimmy Floyd Go to https://contacts.google.com/ on a PC and see what's there.
Cheers all. Fuck all on google so I'll have to check what's on Samsung, but the inability to log into Samsung account without an SMS verification is the fucking bane of my fucking life so I might have to get my old Korean manners out and contact them directly.
