Amusing FreeCycle Ad Of The Day:

From: "[SNIP]" <[SNIP]>
Subject: OFFER: Large Plant (Central/South Edinburgh)

It's an umbrella tree. We've been together over 20 years, but have recently grown apart. If I'm honest, I feel it's time he moved on. I've changed, and he isn't right for me any more. Also, my other half has never liked him.

Now that's the way to get people to respond!

(Oh, dear god. Someone sprayed a shitload of air freshener around the women's loos just before I got out of the stall (two stall, didn't see whoever it was that was in the other stall and presumably did the spraying) and I nearly choked. And I'm not usually that sensitive to this stuff, either. *gags* Great, now my clothes smell of loo freshener, and all I did was hurry out without even washing my hands. Christ, people!)

Hee. Fabulous ad!

(I hate it when people overdo it with the fresheners! Oh. I once sprayed a little bit of some citrus-y loo freshener at work, and later a co-worker asked me what kind of perfume I was wearing, he said it was a nice smell and wanted to buy some for his wife. :\)

I don't understand the whole freshener thing to begin with! I mean, one of those that just stand there and give off scent is one thing, but the sprays are just asking for trouble, because people spray half the bottle because they're deadly afraid, apparently, that we'd smell their shit. Because the rest of us aren't there for the exact same reason. Gaaaahh!)

Well I only go to the loo to powder my nose.

:P

People need to learn that they don't have to hold their finger on the squirt thingy for 15 minutes (or until the bottle is almost empty), and that nobody is going to die if there's a little bit of smell when you've been to the loo. The worst ones are the people who spray after they've only had a pee. Gnnnf.

Oh, god, yes. But then apparently I'm weird because I also only rinse my hands quickly (well, one hand) when I've just had a pee. I'm sorry, germ-phobics, but it's not like I'm shoving my entire hand in there or something, okay? All my hand touched was the paper, that doesn't warrant the ten minutes of water-wasting, borderline OCD hand-scrubbing some people do. Gah.

I actually think we'd all be healthier if we weren't so germ-phobic. I do the same after a pee, with the quick rinsing (well, I do have to rinse both my hands because I can't get one wet and not the other, but that's a whole other story.. :p).

Hee! And people call me neurotic. :D

*glares*

;D

I'm the same with my feet too.. If I step on some water drops in the bathroom with one foot, the other has to follow and do the same.
