bringing out the Pom in me & having a whinge...

I’ve been majorly stuck with ideas to write about lately so have done what all good bloggers do – NOTHING!!

I was taught as a child that if I didn’t have anything nice to say not to say anything.  Until today.

Today I’m joining in with Dear Baby G for FFS Friday – For fuck sake Friday – or in other words: what’s been pissing you off this week.

So here’s my vent for the week.

Teenagers. 

Perpetually running late teenagers.  My son is late FOR EVERYTHING!  He was late for his own birth, he’s late for school, he’s late for meetings, the kid will be late for his own fucking funeral.

This morning he is going away with a youth group he’s in for the weekend.

The leader told him specifically not to be late – be there at 9.30am.

Yesterday morning he said he had ‘all day’ to pack his bag, get his diabetes supplies, change his pump site & have a shower.

8am this morning we are still unpacked, unshowered (have I mentioned the kid takes 1/2hr to do his hair!!!!!) unsupplied, unfuckingeverything!!!!!!

My voice is hoarse from yelling constantly for 1 1/2 hours.  FFS.

Fad diets.  

I’m so sick & tired of constantly being bombarded from every quarter by claims that I should be giving up: salt, sugar, fat, bacon (not on your life), alcohol, chocolate, fruit, honey, dairy…the list goes on.

How about we stop telling people what to do & start producing food that actually looks like food.

Food that is not full of preservatives & additives.

Food that hasn’t been processed so many times that it’s resemblance to anything that nature provides is so far removed that it’s no wonder people have no idea about what’s healthy & what isn’t.   FFS

Passive-aggressive people. 

Those people who like to get their own way but don’t actually want to come out & say it.

I’m not a fan of talking around in circles.  Get to the point.  Ask me to do something & see what I will say.  Don’t back me into a corner as I may just come out snarling.  FFS

Australia Day Fuckwits

As I expected, this year was no exception for bringing out the fuckwits on Australia Day.

Nothing like a social media platform & a very loud voice to make your jingoistic, backward, racist views be heard.  FFS  (On the upside I did take it as a good opportunity to perform a much-needed friendectomy.)

So that’s my pommy whinge for today.

What’s made you say For Fuck Sake lately?
