What gets on my wick

[Word-Smith]

Those little wet-wipe sachets, which you can't open because your fingers are too slippery because you can't get at the wet-wipe to clean them because you can't open the sachet......

What gets on your wick?

[Bbbananas]

Candles.
Those large expensive scented candles you paid a lot of money for, and yet only burn about halfway down before the wick gets lost, or pushed to one side, or whereby you have a crevice in the middle of the candle, high sides, and it's just bl00dy good after half way down. Basically.

People that chew loudly like some big cow mucnhing on grass.

[Word-Smith]

Instruction leaflets with modems that say really helpful stuff like:

"Having trouble connecting to the internet? For help go to our website at...."

Aaarrrggghhh!!!

[afcjan]

opening the pump toothpaste bottles for the first time, all that cellophane stuff round it...... grrr

Starting a new roll of toilet paper but the glue bit is stuck firm and rips the paper the wrong way or you only get 1 ply!

Anyone who's ever bought a, you know, ladies' buzzy device, will know that they come with ...

... instruction leaflets !!!!!!

Isn't it safe to assume that if you don't know what to do with it, then you probably don't need one ?

Or ... the whole sheet could be cut down to 9 words ...

"Switch it on and put it in your ... "

[joggerjayne]

eash ... YES !!!

And by the time you've got through the glue, you've shredded about the first ten layers.

JJ - in my newfound innocence, I have to ask: what is a lady buzzy device - an epilator?

[eash]

Mine have never come with instructions JJ! lol

[Bbbananas]

I find them a bit painful when the hairs get stuck... It wrenches them out by the roots you know - always a satisfactory result, but .........

[joggerjayne]

salla ...

Whatever it is ... you're misusing it !!

eash ...

You must shop at a shop for moderately intelligent people who can work things out for themselves.

Whereas my local "novelty" shop must cater for ... Americans?

It's not like squad to miss-out on a thread like this one, or is he charging his pacemaker up?

[sqad617]

Believe it or not I am only into forkhandles.

[Bbbananas]

[joggerjayne]

[carrust]

You must have a nose like a bloodhound. Off you go boy, have a good sniff round:-)))))))))))

[lexie..]

I have a woman's buzzy thing Jayne, but it's for stiff necks.

;-)

[lexie..]

[carrust]

I think a stroke is all he's getting at the moment JJ:-)))

[sqad617]

carrust.......anyway, JJ has p1ssed me off...........I made a really funny remark about Brigadoon ( I am still laughing) and she didn't think it was funny.....just because it didn't contain the words "ming".."muffin"..BJ etc.
I am sulking.
