What Really Grinds My Gears 5

Watching NRL (Dragons v Tigers)

The 9 camera crew have shown some really good aerial shots of WIN stadium full of fans

wgmg - it makes me jealous - there should be a (permanent) A-League  team in Wollongong

Just face timed them. Old man sat with a moon boot thing on looking pathetic saying he can’t do anything. Old girl pipes up ‘ you do bugger all anyway’...

Where was my plane Smoggy you bastard.

Worst thing was yesterday arvo there was a bunch of pommy lads walking through and I asked, "you didn't happen to catch the sydney derby did you?". They thought I was a typical Aussie and started trying to tell me the League scores. I said, no no no, the football, and they're scratching their heads! "I saw something on the news, about it, hang on, hang on.... nah, sorry mate, can't remember". WTF!

 

Anyway, what did I miss?

Actually, Wendy is a very generous food giver. Young Wanderboy can vouch for a half plate of chips at the Concord West hotel once.

Actually, a couple of those pregame gatherings and walks to SOP were the only good things about those years in the wilderness.

I'm with you Smoggy, I hate sharing food unless I agree beforehand. I have the opposite problem to you. It's not me stealing food, it's Balks. 

Don't start snatching food from me because what you ordered isn't as nice, or you said you weren't hungry and then suddenly you are after my food comes out. 

I order my food based on what I feel like and how much I want to eat. If I order a medium chips, it's because I'm going to eat a medium chips. If you want some chips but don't want too many, I will order a large to accommodate you. But if I order a medium because you said you weren't hungry and then you change your mind, bad luck.

Thank you..yes.

Its just that random act of sticking their fork in your sausage without asking and taking a bite.

I mean, if she asked if she could have a nibble I would still tell her to fook off, but I guess after 20 years of marriage she has figured that and just goes for the sausage.

I remember one Easter near Canberra when we went to a cafe place for Easter Sunday and had scones, Jam and cream, a place well known for them. The place was packed and we got the very last batch available. It was ******* glorious sat their scooping on the jam and cream whilst the waitress explained to the tables around us we got the last ones....best scones ever....the wife said it felt uncomfortable, nahhhhhh.

WRGMG...Subway

Yesterday, my partner had a day off work and she decided to have lunch with me during my lunch break.

We decided to have Subway since it was close to my work. So, she messaged me what I wanted for lunch since I was still in the office at work, I messaged her back: "White Bread, footlong, toasted, cheddar cheese, Turkey & Ham, lettuce, onion, carrot, and pepper"

Eventually, I got to Subway where my partner was waiting at the front of it with a grumpy face. I asked her "what's wrong" and she said "Oh, the girls in Subway are a bunch of idiots" I said "why?" my partner replies "Oh, they weren't going to make yours at one stage because turkey & ham isn't on their menu, they were only going to allow me to have one of them and that's it" 

What the f*ck? It used to be on the menu, why did it get removed?!

WGMG It looks glorious outside, and it is EXCEPT... IT'S TOO COLD!

It's a still, bone-chilling cold!

I keep going out to potter around... and end up coming back inside. 🥶🥶
