After 60 years of practicing being a grumpy b#@*@#d…

[Donkey Basher]

I’m now going to spend the next 25 years, give or take, putting being a grumpy b#@*@#d into practice

I have started this today by putting someone on the ignore list because I’ve simply got fed up with their know it all responses & the apparently unlimited amount of time they have to post on every thread they can find. In fact they’ll probably try to post on this thread but I won’t see it!

Perhaps it’s just that it’s too hot at the moment - car was showing 37 in the shade after a meeting at Bisley this afternoon & back home the outdoor thermometer on the patio was showing 42 in the shade!!

Happy birthday

I love it DB, right there with you. I’ve become increasingly intolerant of ‘bell ends’ and bell-endery since I hit 50. I’m hard over with the three strikes and you’re out mantra and have no problem at all just ignoring idiots or those whose twaddle doesn’t enrich my life experience.

I find it very liberating…..welcome to the GOB cohort!

Happy birthday!

Life is to short to both, just let them crack on and keep smiling. Minor irritation are just that, save your energy and time for the things that really matter.
I don't always manage but I do try hard to be like this.

I guess you won't see this then....

Tell them you are going to ignore them right before you press the button

See what?!

Rest assured it’s none of the old faithfuls - I can put up with you lot, just

My ignore list has exploded since the dawn of the political section

I’d no idea so many on here held such abhorrent attitudes

Grumpy old bastard is the way fort

"When everyone you meet is an a$$hole, you might want to look in the mirror." Just saying....

Of course, I know you have me on ignore, so there's that too.

The fact I can see “ show ignored content “ at the bottom of this thread has put a smile on my face

Quoted so Mr Aboot can see it.

Of course, I'm probably on the list too. I guess it beats examining and defending your position, but it does seem a little soft.

Happy Birthday DB

Thanks - birthday was a while ago it was just that yesterday I finally decided enough was enough from a certain member.

Being a G O B is an entirely admirable state of self awareness and I find a very constructive use of time and emotion.

Carry on the good work.

That is of course if you can read this, but then again, I am a long way from Essex !

My better half reckoned I was a grumpy old sod from the age of 18

Happy birthday
