The WHINGE thread ... (sponsored by Arsene Wenger)

[Graham C]

I was hard up for something to watch yesterday afternoon so flicked on to the Anytime on the old Sky box and decided that I'd watch an episode of Banged Up Abroad, it was about some Aussie guy that got involved in drugs in Thailand.  Anyway, the Mrs comes home with 10 mins to go and we're off out to a friends childs birthday party.  Come back later expecting to watch the last 10 mins and bloody hell, it's been removed from the Anytime!

I spend a whole day meticulously researching a laptop that I am interested in buying, features price etc etc.

Finally decide it will do the job and I can get the cash.

of the 30+ companies who quote prices not one of them has it in stock or has any idea when they might.

even the manufacturer is out of stock and they want £500 extra than the quoted high street price.

I started cutting it up planning to just have a little bit but it was lush so figured I may as well eat it all. the tongue burning didn't start til I'd finished

i dont know what your roof is like but there is a possibility they didnt need a ladder to see if it needs replacing (although not ideal when a roofer turns up without one i will agree)

Just google imaged "gay pride" to send a mildly funny email to my friend at work.  Unknown to me my new fangled windows cheekily installed a new "Gay" drop down menu onto my main task bar.  FFS.  Just had to sheepishly ask the IT guys to remove it

Couldn't find the bad beat thread.

Just finished second in a freeroll for £155 but feel like i've been kicked in teeth.

Was heads up with a 4-1 chip lead and lost the following hands.

All in preflop with AKs v ATo - he rivered a straight
All in preflop with A7s v KTs - he rivered a straight
KQ v 63s, raised preflop, checked a harmless 2 4 K flop, turn 5!!!!
All in preflop with A4s vs K5o, rivered an Ace but couldn't beat his two pair!

1st was for £260, so not a mega loss but annoying still the same!

Ok, put some $ of 5 different poker sites this week. Grinding along happily. I decided to use Tiote22 as my username after looking at



Just been looking at images of him ( fml it's 3.22 and I'm looking at images of my favourite footballer)

Doubt I could be anymore tilted!
