Things that annoy you ?

This is the thing. Today I am in bed, completely knackered, can't pee and can't walk. Whilst DLA is not job or means tested, ESA obviously is. I on average, have two appointments a week plus I will be embarking on a full day in hospital every 28 days. But if I am put in the work pool then I will have to attend jobs classes, interviews and retraining, all so I can get back to work. Now given my meds, my disability requirements, and a lot of able-bodied fully sighted peeps all going for the same jobs.... I does not look hopeful.

I need advise.

I agree with RABun.

I'm sat here with clothes, cardi, thick wooly socks, crocs and a dressing gown on, with a hot cup of coffee, with the heating on, because im so cold. im considering to get a blanket to go over my feet.

Leaving a work do early so i can get a good nights sleep and other reasons (see below), and then staying awake until 2:30am arguing with my OH. Priceless! :angry:

The other thing that annoyed me is because i joined this project quite late on, i have found it really hard to integrate with people on the project (they are a bit cliquey), something i'm normally quite good at. So feeling like a wall flower at the aforementioned works do. :(

Really needing a wee while on the train and finding that the only two toilets are full of wee and poo. I was in pain by the time i got home from holding it in. :angry: :lol:

Failing to get Rob Zombie tixs this morning, 2 hours wasted on f**king seetickets & ticketmaster. Hopefully he'll add another London date as I really don't want to spend £70 plus per f**king tix.

nah i would think its more likely to be thin people who get hot and sweaty as they are more likely to move around more. If you're fat you'll move less and slower, therefore sweating less.

While being fat makes your penis look smaller it does not make you hotter. In fact the extra surface area of skin should make cooling easier.

    • Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
    • Wow just got myself some Megadeth tickets and not sure I can afford another set of tickets for another gig so soon but we'll see. Fingers crossed
    • Can't speak for Dua Lipa's, but Coldplay's was vastly scaled down compared to their stadium production staging though, and tracks were adapted to reflect that. MOTS tour had a full walkway 30m out to the B-Stage in the middle of the crowd, and two C-Stages. Glastonbury didn't accommodate that at all and just had a very small walkway in front of the Pyramid stage, and (IIRC) a disconnected B-Stage.   Which re-enforces my point. Acts can adapt their stage shows if they really want. Most do, some don't want to. Glastonbury might miss out on the odd act that doesn't want to slightly adapt, but so will most festivals.
