I came to CTH the never-ending headache / migraine combo which is now entering its 7th day and is beginning to piss me right off.
Then I saw MrsBeaky's post, and, suitably chastened, I'm going to have my cheap neurofen, have a cup of chamomile tea, and stop bloody moaning.
How awful, MrsB. Poor baby, poor parents.

Thanks Jemima the 9th
Suffering comes in many guises and migraines are vile, my husband had a two day one at the beginning of the week so yours deserves to be CTH!
So I also CTH vile headaches at the same time as giving thanks for access to pain relief and brooding about my earlier post!

The people who are having a massive fireworks display that has gone on for about ten minutes at least, sounding like a mortar barrage, and doing it somewhere where I CAN'T SEE IT. (Which is quite hard, as I can see nearly 180 degrees out of the front, and nearly 180 degrees out of the back and for some distance when it comes to rockets.)

Nah. No room. And it would be much much noisier. And I would be able to see the light from it.
Mind you, I have come to realise how far that sort of sound can travel by watching the live lightning map during storms.
European lightning Thunder from over 10 miles away sounds as if it's almost on top of me.

Actually, I found it quite useful when trying to photograph lightning - because I could see which way the storm was moving.

What I fund fascinating about that site was the source of the data. Over Europe there are countless people who have constructed receiver aerials which are a metre in all three dimensions, and the attendant gizmos for dealing with the data and sending it off. Who are these people, and why are they? I looked at the possibility of having one on my roof, but I wouldn't get permission for it. also, the gizmos needeed skills I don't have.
And a lightning strike in Russia can be picked up in the UK. Extraordinary.
And lightning often seems to be coordinated over a distance, with simultaneous strikes quite a way apart. (Genuine effect, spotted, but not explained by professionals.)

TITCH adult acne. Really, fuck this shit. I just don't need it right now. Or anytime, for that matter.
Oh, and while I'm here, I may as well condemn to hell the monobrow*, the moustache, the sideburns, the whole goddamn lot of it. And the social expectation that I stay on top of it. At this rate I will be growing hairs on my eyeballs in ten years time...

TITCH my bitch boss who shows up twice a week and then starts an inquisition into a conversation I had where I got creamed so bad it left me in tears but apparently it's my fault because the cunt who complained about me failed to mention that she refuses to do the part of her job that allows me to do mine and then confronted me about it - her ineptness being something I have repeatedly asked for help for dealing with from both the cunt's physically threatening supervisor and my aforementioned bitch boss. But who the hell should listen to me? HR is psycho and the head honcho is sad he's closing the shop after Christmas (and the only motherfucker in this story getting laid off is me).

TICTH the two annoying twats that accompanied me on the bus this morning.
One was having a very loud conversation on the phone about his forthcoming wedding (which was doubly confusing as the scene in the book I was trying to read featured a wedding) and the other was incessantly ringing the stop bell, refusing to desist for the full half an hour we were on the bus together.

Welcome to Hell spork, nice start.
1) your tone is spot on.
2) your content is fine for Hell (although debates about abortion is a recognised Dead Horse topic).
3) you really shouldn't listen to the Jeremy Vine show. It will only make you ill. It's UKIP meets Colonel Bufton Tufton nowadays and Vine can't seem to deflect the loonies as dear old Jimmy Young did.

He worked as a kitchen porter for two weeks, being shouted at by his boss who is ex-army for every mistake he made. Oh God, he really tried hard, getting up at 4:30 in the morning to go in and now he has been let go because he didn't get everything right! He has a disability FFS! He is trying and you God are just not giving him a break!

The man next door who decided to smoke something or other out of the bedroom window about one o'clock last night, causing me to smell something burning and have to get up and check it wasn't in my house.
The people about a hundred yards away who thought that two fifteen was a good time for a firework party. They were good quality ones, very pretty, but also very loud - at 2:15, 2:20, 2:25, 2:30 AT NIGHT for heaven's sake!
I won't be able to see my friend today because I need to drive a long way several times, and I've only had four hours' sleep. And that is bad for him.

Hello? Is that TICTH?
How long have you been running? Since December? Golly, no wonder you're beginning to whiff a bit. And the tangents are almost worth a board of their own, let alone a thread.
To get personal, because this is Hell and I am a Host and I can, I Hereby Proclaim that this TICTH thread, aka Penny S's Blog, is formally and finally CLOSED.
By order.
