So last night I was just feeling too tired to cook and decided to order from a takeout. I went with a takeout that we utilized several times, the guy on the phone said that nromally their is a minimum order but they would make an exception for me and let me order for £7 instead of having to pay the minimum order of £10. I got 3 peices of chicken chips and a drink they were large perices of chicken so for takeout it seemed like a good deal.
Now many people may be wondering why would I even mention this how is this a story? well I could pretend it was saying that hmm I wonder why the takeout made that exception for me?
1. we could speculate maybe it was that I usually order as a couple but since the girlfriend is away I am ordering by myself. maybe they thought we had broken up and it was a sympathy thing?
we have not btw we are going strong as ever
2. maybe because we are good customers they just did this as a good will gesture
3. maybe they were just quite not that busy or had stock to clear
we can go on speculating maybe there are more reasons that I have not mentioned, however that would be a side point to the main point I was driving at.
Some people may have noticed a thread I posted saying this annoys me about certain businesses all going bust, that I had unpleasenet experiences with.
then
@TheEdge949 implied that the common denominator in all these events was me. Well of course because I am the common denominator in all my experiences by definition. However this seemed to imply that somehow this was hate I deserved and that somehow my being or behaviour had caused this as if I was just filth that was a disease on humanity better kept locked away.
Well see breaking that down the food place that went under whom short changed me the food and accused me of lying both times we ordered of them (first time they had not short changed us) this had been done online, I do wonder how my girlfriend (she was the one who performed the order on her phone) moving around the internet page to order the food could trigger such hate I did not know they would even be aware of that.
The fish and chip place I just went in and placed my order a few times there wasn't really much conversation to be had its not like I spent hours discussing politics philosophy or sport with the guy. there was not anything to really go on so again the supposed hatred for my apparent filth should not really be a thing.
now on the souvenour shop didn't talk to the owner when I walked in I was just browsing maybe I looked a bit nervous I am an anxious person maybe because of this he thought I was up to no good and had nefarious motives bit of a stretch but ok I can entertain this of course his aggressive behaviour was not acceptable by any means and the refusal to apologise and the just **** off attitude when he found out after forcing me to empty all my pockets and bags and found nothing was totally unacceptable.
The hairdresser yeah that likely did have some impact from me I was insecure at the time felt I struggled making friends or getting dates and expressed my sadness to the hairdresser, this may well have impacted her judgement which she expressed to me about me being a geeky loser that should just kill himself. However I think that reflects more negatively on her then me.
So yeah since we note the negatives with businesses/people just be my fault me been vile according to
@TheEdge949 I thought I would mention a positive experience.
its odd that he thinks I should get out on coach holidays more when clearly he believes that I am so repulsive that I may as well be one of the James Bulgur killers (I am not btw). I mean if I really am that vil.e and offensive to the populace at large maybe both for my own happiness and everyone elses I am better of just locking myself inside
anyway the food was good and the delivery was polite friendly and cordial so maybe I am not so vile to everyone after all.

In regards to been great at poker I am profitible not sure I would say great I cant make a decent full time living of the game yet, although I have found that when working once i start getting taxed my wages are less then my poker. However before this point wages beat poker so I now have a part time accounts job (3 days a week usually tues-thurs but sometimes varies) and play poker part time to. So does that mean I am now a part time pro? I dunno still trying to work out which way to go with that eg spin and goes or mtts or spin and goes plus mtts or mtts plus dons.
I appreciate the good sentiment though TY for that.
Don't mind you having a pop, but please try and be accurate otherwise it's just lazy posting.
