Stive Pesley

Didn't hurt, just very scratchy! Really pleased.
 

My Rogers Profanisaurus desk calendar is already cheering me up this year at work

With Trumps inauguration just round the corner, waking each day without discovering my house hasn't been incinerated in a nuclear fire ball will put a smile on my face...

Blokes who go out and about wearing soft cotton jogging trousers. In the house? Fine. Nipping to the corner shop? Just about acceptable. Any further? Unacceptable (unless it's to go and appear on Jeremy Kyle)
I was on a training course last week and it was "casual dress". A lad on there spent the whole week in the same pair of jogging bottoms. Have some self respect mate.

I always end up buying a few other things with the bog roll, to disguise the fact i'm about to crap myself if I don't get home sharpish...

Probably paracetomol when I've got a bad hangover and there is no one else in to go to the shop for me
Or toilet roll in the same situation

True - I say "just about acceptable" but it depends on how far your shop is and how desperately you need to go to the shop. Mine is literally dead opposite the house, so I can power in and out in an emergency (and it has to be said that I don't look out of place in there!) - but generally I would get changed first.
 
I've also seen mum's taking kids to school in their dressing gowns - and slippers!

Haha Stive! Had to have a laugh at this ! Been saying this to people for ages. Tracky bottoms when out and about is just laziness. Don't get me wrong, they are comfy for slightly bigger men like myself and i love wearing thrm but I wouldn't been seen dead going out in them. Just wearing them changes my mentality to 'can't really be arsed'. Slovenly people.
If I may add to this tracksuit slating fest.
People who wear tracksuit tops with their hoods up in summer when it's about 28 degrees. Why?!!
And people who wear those sicky grey tracky bottoms and tops with hood up and white trainers. Have a day off will ya! You look ridiculous.

Fat women in leggings stretched to the point of transparency.

I'm with you Stive
they are either warm PJ's or tracksuit bottoms that you wear over shorts before taking part in sport. They are not day wear ! 
Good grief what is the world coming to. ! I think it's worse than white socks and a business suit

Absolutely everything annoys me about the DET; the instrusive ads, the clickbait headlines, the poor qulaty of the journalism, reporting social media opinion as news, the constantly negative one sided articles (essentially clickbait dressed up as news), the comments from the same five miserable, right wing, ignorant posters who make the same comments on everything, the anti-derby view they take on everything, the ads (again), the lack of context or explanation they put into stories, the fact they don't own a thesaurus for the words 'angered' and 'outraged' (although, to be fair, Derbiens don't need an excuse to moan)... the whole thing is one huge travesty. I hate it.

I've remained fairly silent in this thread, not really wanting to jump in as I may come across as an ******** and offend someone when it's not my intention at all. Members that have been on this forum for a long time will know I was diagnosed with sever anxiety where I barely left the house for around 5 years, my girlfriend at the time left me and I was a complete mess. So I'm only talking from personal experience combined with what I read over the years, I'm certainly no medical expert or will ever claim to be.
Erase the word depression from your dictionary, it's a word that is a huge umbrella trying to cover many issues, some of which may not even be mental disorders. It's an awful word and one that is used too lightly in everyday conversations. There isn't even any clear guidelines as to what "depression" is.
I could walk into a doctors this morning and within 5 minutes walk out with a anti depressants prescription and signed off work with very little effort and those twice a day before meal tablets will make you feel better but they are also masking the root cause of what is making you unhappy.
Analogy time, you're in debt, bills keep rolling through the door, final payment demand letters and you're putting them straight in the bin without warning. At some point those unopened letters will end up in bigger problems with bailiffs banging at your door.
Best thing to do? open the letters and deal with them, make the call, explain your situation and that's exactly what you should do if you are feeling unhappy, talk to a loved one, explain how you're feeling and break down in tears if you need to, just be completely open with them and hide nothing. Those sleepless nights are you trying to deal with things alone, all the lads will know this but how good does it feel when you unload on to the missus?.......this is no different, unload those thoughts as well and you will feel 10x better I swear. (If you are single you will need a close friend, family member or relative to unload on but just the thoughts, they may not appreciate the other)
Next step is to make changes, if you look back through this topic many possibly without realising have listed the root causes to their unhappiness, change it. Change isn't always easy but neither is sleepless nights and going through days thinking whats the point of me even being here. 
For some it may take weeks, months of talking to get down to the root cause but there always is a root cause for most people. Theres always that one thing be it your wife, job that you can change.
You only live once, no second chances at all this, the days, weeks, months soon mount up and wether you're young or old it's time you will never get back. I lost pretty much 5 years of my twenties, kick myself in the balls everyday for that, time lost as I chose to be the man and try to deal with those little issues by myself which snowballed into one huge ****** that blocked the front door.
Never no matter what age just accept it's part of you, just the way you are!
Just to end on I do realise that sometimes people have issues where change and talking won't help, they are wired up wrong and need medical help. Also feeling unhappy can be down to a loved one where change is not an option, death unfortunately is a part of life that is not always easy to get your head around when it happens to someone close. 

Agreed - I hate those things so much, only clickbait robot on twitter can make it better!
 

Asking my little one about any DVD's she wanted for Christmas & she said she wanted to watch Ladytrump, meaning Lady & the Tramp.
Chuckled for a good hour about that.

Cyclist are like the left wing of politics. A lot of them are decent people with a method of getting from A to B and would like everyone to share it. It might not be all that practical but the intent is good and sound. Then there are the militants who hate everyone who isn't like them and give no quarter regardless of circumstances. 

People who stand/sit at the bar in pubs, meaning that you have to shout your drinks order over their shoulders from 6 foot away from the barman. We get that you're a "regular" but you're annoying
