This drives me fucking bananas, the last CMAT concert in La Madeleine a load of GAA lads took it upon themselves to hover around the bar and bellow inane conversation at eachother. During the slow ballads and all!
I’m fascinated by 40+ year olds who come to concerts and just talk the whole way through.

Dude sitting behind me taking very loudly so I ask him to lower his chattiness beneath the music. He goes, “relax dude it’s a concert.” And I said, “yes. We came to listen to music and not you.”

People suck

In a fun new development: following weeks of giving out in the residents groupchat about dribbles of paint all over the facade and courtyard, and actually a bit of a witch-hunt for the "artist", it turns out that this fella is just shitting everywhere

I would bet everything I own that women are safer living next to 300 migrant men than they are living next to 300 British male soldiers

When I was in school girls were wearing the smallest possible glasses they could find. Now they're wearing glasses so big they live on the end of their noses and contain their eyebrows and fringes. What's this about.

I once got a message from someone basically role-playing what it would be like when the two us "finally" gave in to the unspoken but undeniable sexual tension and went on a date, very tortured etc etc and gang, I only followed him because he posted his pets and reminded me of my elderly uncle

People keep asking me do I/we feel any different since getting married and the answer is mostly no except that I am now even more disturbed by the idea of people in their early twenties getting married

I'm watching Four Weddings and Funeral for the first time.

I assume this is about a scattered friend group who only get to meet up at weddings and funerals and their antics? We will see.
