What irks you?

[Frood]

I'm full of irks... 


This guy at work about 14 years older than me. I like him but he shits me.

Doesn't want to drive (mechanics hands/arthritis but is a back-seat driver always trying to teach me how to drive on paved and bush tracks, especially mountains.

I've been driving for over 35 years fucker and I've never rolled or seriously damaged anything I've operated.... this guy has 4 times just this year.

Always eating little bags of chips and making groans anytime we unavoidably bottom out...

Eat your chippies motherfucker. 

Now I grab my back when he drives and hits washouts... I also eat lovely sandwiches.

I bought a new chainsaw..

Turns out you need a special tool for adjusting the carburetor.


That right there is capitalism and economic growth.


You used to be able to adjust them with a small flathead.

What irks me is people who work in a deadline-driven environment and think that deadlines are just suggestions.

It pisses me off!

Why?

Being out of coffee and smokes first thing in the morning lol  Like right now :D

I smoked for twenty seven years. I have been nicotine free for seven years so far.

[deadskinmask]

i quit smoking shortly after covid arrived.... the mornings were the hardest....

[deadskinmask]

the problem for me was coffee.... i drink coffee black and strong.... and black coffee (just like rotgut whisky) was made for a tobacco chaser.... i still drink coffee.... but now i add cream and sugar.... theres less temptation to smoke....

How did you quit, if you don't mind me asking..  I quit for 5 years at one point. I lived in Florida and found it easier to drop the habit, since I could stay active all year. I moved back to Michigan in the dead of winter and after one week of being couped up.. I started again :( 

i read the ingredients daily and i dipped my fingers in bleach occasionally.... the ingredients are pretty gnarly.... and the bleach will make the first puff unbearable.... eventually.... after 10 or so "first puffs", you'll no longer remember cigarettes the same way again.... and you'll be free....

That's interesting. I'll keep that in mind when I make another attempt.. Which is going to be soon..

I'm not ignorant about smoking. I know it's horrible for my health, expensive.... Sometimes I convince myself that it's my only vice, so why not.. but I know that's ridiculous.. lol.. 

i knew what it was when i signed up also.... but being older, smarter and having seen firsthand the effects all make it easier.... plus i have grandchildren.... if i die, they'll never find anyone else to beat at monopoly.... because they're fuckin horrible at it....

I weaned myself off of cigarettes with Nicorettes. I am glad I went that route instead of vaping.
