I like that you count toasters or kettles as your family members. Even if they are boring.

After something that's quite interesting and is genuinely useful without maybe being a necessity. Rather it was the sort of thing that's going to last for quite a while too.

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Houseplant or a Bonsai Tree. Useful for oxygenating the living space.

Wall decals. If the family member is more of a free spirit, you could perhaps go for something like 'Powered by Fairy Dust'.

I would get an oversized "live love laugh" sign and for the kitchen and maybe another one that says "you don't have to be mad to love here but it helps" 

 

I'd also hide a dildo in the freezer for them to find at a later date.

Don't wanna talk about it on here x

For work i went on a site visit for a sit down Customer meeting for 3 days. Arrived on site yesterday, Meeting started at 9am. My manager is chatting away whilst i am working on my laptop.

 

All of a sudden, at 9:15am, i get a sharp pain in my chest. Literally out of nowhere. Decided to go out the room for some fresh air without telling anyone.

 

Then i broke out in a sweat, both arms and hands going really tingly whilst still having this chest pain. A guy walked past me, said good morning, then doubled back when he realised i looked like shit. Sat me down and called 999. 

 

I was ok after about 25 mins but the paramedic still took me to hospital to get checked over. Had blood test, ECG and X Ray but all came back fine.

 

Doctor said it was either a Nerve issue or a Muscular skeletal issue but either way nothing too serious.

 

Back in the meeting today, everyone taking the piss saying i just wanted a day off  

 

Very strange day

Glad you got checked out mate, can't mess around with those symptoms, can easily be something nasty. 

 

Happy to hear that it wasn't.

Advice to everyone from my experience... never ignore chest pain. It might be nothing, but it might not. You won't know until you get thoroughly checked out.

Even if an ECG we took showed nothing, we still advised a trip to hospital for more conclusive tests, even with young people because you never know.

the "Ins and outs - summer 2026" is pinned and is a cock slap to the face every time i log in.

 

Unlikely anything noteworthy happens til July and the thread becomes a dumping ground for peoples frustrations or their own opinion of who should come and go.

 

I thought the hierarchy on here didnt like multiple threads when one will do, especially if it isnt really in the correct place.
