I once lived with a guy, I think he was the brother of my girlfriend, who used to work nightshifts but refused to go to bed during the day – he just slept on the sofa downstairs cluttering the living room up and snoring loudly.

Oh shit… that was you Neil.

I too can not stand the whole concept of txtspk and end up having to punctuate and correctly write out each word, sometimes even running five texts long.

However, my complete inability to spell coupled with both five second attention span and my phone’s predictive text usually ends up with people getting no reply.

Have to agree with Sis on No.2. My old flat mate Dan (possibly something in the name?) always went one stage further with the whole not closing cupboard doors. Rather than leaving them wide open he would make an effort but still manage to leave them all about an inch open!

I’m especially with you on number 7. Much easier to indulge with a phone with a keyboard. Though so many of my texts run on over three consecutive messages.

Yeah, the scary thing for me is that my own internal voice sounds alarmingly like Homer Simpson’s.

I too zone out when being given instructions. When I know it’s something really important, I have to turn on the second voice in my head that says, “this is important! listen to this!” Except that voice ends up drowning out the voice of the person giving me instructions. It’s a vicious cycle.

Birds are aweseom. I’ve had cockatiels for and parakeets years but have never attempted to breed them. I have been successful however in breeding my own kids – so that’s something!

I can identify with 6 and 7 – I always leave the margarine tub out (but with the lid on) just in case I need to go back to it… I never do and should just put it away in the first place. And I always send text messages in long hand with full punctuation… I just can’t do it in txt spk!
