Do any of these apply to you?

Me, too, Diane227 , although I'm just as likely to be seen muttering to MYSELF in the grocery isle since I live alone and am in the habit of saying things aloud within the confines of my home for memory purposes. I'm sure I look daft!

One to add, maybe, that after typing a long reply to a post on my iPad, it will suddenly disappear with the message "there was a problem with the webpage so it was reloaded" . Infuriating!

I remember laughing at older people who talked to their dogs like they were people.
Now I have whole conversations with mine and in public.

Pome, hope today is better for you .

Magsymoo, I thought the same thing but didn't say anything as I am from the US and thought perhaps it was one of those words having different connotations here and there.

Thank you all for a wonderful laugh after a really terrible day!
I recognised myself on all of them.

Love this list, and all the suggestions. Will add: I wish when the Sat Nav tells my husband to "turn right" and he says "No, I'm sure it's left here" - I really wish the Sat nav replied "Well, if that's what you think then I'll just switch off shall I, I mean what's the bloody point of having be then eh?"

This might be a 'fun thread' but am I the only one who finds no. 16 inappropriate and racist? The word 'ghetto' is only ever used in relation to the Jews of Eastern Europe or black people in S. Africa or USA in the early 20c.

Learn how to smile and say thank you whenever your newly retired other half keeps telling you that he/she (mainly he, I suspect but daren’t say so) that he’s/she’s hung ‘your’ washing out.
Other everyday tasks can replace the above example.

Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
It's a good job this is a "fun"thread, otherwise I'd be questioning the sanity of some Brit motorists who'd cheerfully leave some poor sod, or sodess, out to dry (and die) in the face of oncoming trucks.
Aussie drivers would never do that! OoRoo

Whichever queue I choose in the supermarket, that queue will be the slowest moving.

petunia; We've dealt with this some time ago!
Always pick the one with the majority of men. They spend far less time than women, who have to fumble through a myriad of bags searching for a card that still has some credit!

Love them all!!!!

They are all so true- here's a couple more

Keep your mobile phone close and it will never ring, when it's somewhere in the bottom of your bag it will.

When you see any programme more than once on TV you will always see the same particular bit,

Here's a few

There will always be an odd sock in my life. Always

I always need a wee on long journeys precisely at the point where there is a long drive to the next services

At the theatre, the person with the seat in front of me is very very tall and broad

Whichever queue I choose in the supermarket, that queue will be the slowest moving

No matter what the weather forecast says, it will rain during our bar-b-que.

I wont realise my lovely new top is almost see through under certain lights until I'm wearing it at the event I bought it for

Grandchildren seem drawn to step in the dog dirt and the removal of that only seems to spread it onto all concerned

All so true. I agree with notanan as well, I have told my daughters to deal with my facial hair should I be unable to do so.
When your dog does something intelligent pretend you have trained him well, its not just chance.

Most of these made me laugh, smile or nod knowingly. I especially liked #19 as I was part of one of those lines of cars just last week and it was so, so satisfying!

Oh, and Notanan, yes to the chin hair plucking! I did that for my grandma when she was living and over 100. She'd just pass her fingers over her chin, pause, and point at the spot for me to tweeze! Now I'm doing it for myself every day.

No. 6 Cursive writing I have found that I am using Printing rather than cursive more and more. I think it is due to the ever-growing arthritis in my hands. It seems to be less painful - or is that just me?

I was once visiting a friend and her TV was on (what is it with people who put the damned thing on the moment they get up and it stays on all day?) and Oprah Winfrey was having a demonstration on how to fold a fitted sheet.

Was this serious? Indeed it was.

I really would not have believed, had someone asked me, that a sentient human had difficulty folding a fitted sheet.

Glad I am not the only one that does that Dee1012

Someone once told me their friend was ‘very dead’
Turns out he was 2 days dead before anyone missed him & went to his flat !

Love all of them, (grin)

Really useful janeainsworth, I’ve saved the video! My one would be ‘Always keep a really impressive, highbrow book by the side of the bed. That way if you die during the night people will always remember you as being highly intelligent’.

Autocheck put a lot of words into American like missing out the U in favor in my essays for Uni ? So yes, always checked my work and saved it frequently ?

All but I love no 19. Always do this if I see one trying to cut in, having no eye contact of course.

Love 19!???

All very funny - and true.
Another one that’s dawned on me recently. My husband seems to think I’m a cheap version of Alexa. He keeps asking me things like
What’s the time?
What’s the weather forecast?
What day is it?
What’s on TV?
Anything on at the cinema?
Etc etc.
Or is it just conversation, lol.
