Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted September 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 I can't do screen protectors. Once again I've tried putting one on a new device, once again I've followed all advice down to a tee, and once again I've ended up with something looking like Aero have got in the technology game or it's a limited edition Leprosy model. I've gave up and the screen will have to brave the elements rawdog. Never again. Your turn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I can't get as far as the waiting room of a dentist, doctors or hospital without my body having an anxiety response. No matter how rational my mind processes it, it's just never comfortable for me. The fucking opticians is about my limit. I had to get a fresh eye test two weeks ago and I almost had to stop reading the letters halfway through because I felt like I was going to pass out.

The only screen protector I've ever succeeded in putting on my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRooster Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Say the word ‘secretary’ out loud. It’s an indecipherable sound about 50% of the time it comes out of my mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WeeAl Posted September 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 Can't whistle. Can't for the life of me figure out how it works. Just a disaster from start to finish when I attempt. For the longest time, I couldn't blow up a balloon. I'd say I was in my early to mid twenties before that light bulb went off.

I reckon I could bobble and survive but certainly couldn't "swim" anywhere. Also DIY. I hate it and I'm shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Oh I can't blow a balloon or swim. This thread's going to be depressing for me. Look, I can tell you with a decent degree of accuracy what gear is being used on old rave tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Wretch Posted September 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 Clingfilm, the little fucker. Buying a house five years ago made me realise how awful I am at anything DIY related. I was just so used to asking landlords to fix whatever went wrong, it’s something I never really thought about, daft as that sounds. Still feel a twinge of embarrassment when I have to ask my father in law to pop round and help with whatever’s happened (or something I’ve fucked up).

Dr. Alan Grant Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I can blow up a balloon, but I can’t tie them at the end. Can’t ride a bike. Can’t cut through sellotape with my teeth. I just get in a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted September 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 DIY here as well. My Mum did everything like that when I was growing up but never bothered to actually teach us any of it. Now she has COPD and has my Dad do everything and I'm 33 year old, can't be asking my Dad to teach me how to drill a curtain pole in or paint a wall properly. I'm good with computers, though.

MungoChutney Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 DIY for me too, can't do anything beyond very basic painting a wall. I don't know if this is necessarily a simple thing but wrapping Christmas or birthday presents is like complex theoretical physics to me. I think a severe lack of patience combined with poor hand-eye coordination is to blame for both of these issues tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted September 24, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 Work a tin opener. Everyone I've tried chews the tin up, misses bits or rides up the tin as it turns. I just use an old pen knife style one most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
