    The word anxiety is being appropriated by parents in particular to get them out of parenting. Kids having fears over slightly challenging everyday situations isn't a que to avoid the situation, is something that is your job to sort.

    See ‘he’s got ‘ADHD’. No he hasn’t, he’s a poorly behaved little shit because you can’t be arsed to parent and have let him do what he wants.

    I appreciate there will be a few kids with ADHD, but nothing like the scale claimed.

    We haven't done 'things I can't say on Facebook' or shit parenting or 'No, as long as the kiddies are happy isn't all that matters' for yonks and then all 3 come at once.

    Excellent work to all involved.

    Just got my astro boots out of the car and tipped them as I was closing the door behind me as I came back in the house. An absolute shower of rubber crumb all over the floor. Hard to imagine gresham pitches have any left on them. It's all in my house.

    I really resonate with that. No you don't, although I suppose the proof is in the pudding (no it isn't).

    Had to backup my phone, and restore it to another one, because the battery has blown.

    It's in the eating of course.

    Commentators saying a sending of will ruin the game. Far from it, it's generally quite entertaining.

    My wife made the arbitrary decision to buy a new brand of coffee beans after we've been using the same one for years. The new one isn't anything like as nice, but for some reason she bought three bloody bags of the stuff.

    Could be worse. She could just have bought one bag....it's a pet hate of mine. People thinking they are doing you a favour buying a 250g bag of coffee to 'try'. By the time I've dialled in the grind, there's no coffee left to make nice shots with. Then I have to reset everything to go back to my old coffee.

    Yes but now I have to drink coffee I don't like for the next few weeks because I'm too cheap to not use it.

    No you don't. Buy the coffee that you like, and save the disgusting coffee for making drinks for your wife. It's a well known training technique, called 'rubbing their noses in it'.
