Now that is something that's made me smile. Obviously not the fact that your dad is unwell bless him, but the fact that he thinks the world of his son even though he must have so much on his mind right now. You got a top dad mateClacton-ammer wrote:My old man this morning, he hasn't got that much spare cash and I popped him round some shopping as he is struggling a bit with his prostate cancer (op on Monday) gave me 100 sheets in fivers, bless him, I obviously didn't want it but he wants me to have it for Christmas to treat myself, he has obviously been saving the fivers for some time, made me smile, he has never been an affectionate dad, a good dad, but not an affectionate one, little things eh.

Watching my two dogs play and f*** about in the garden.
A good loud fart.
Watching West Ham play the football that I know they can.

The rare occasion of hearing someone fart out loud in polite company and being utterly mortifed by it.

My mother-in-law did that getting up off of our sofa once, she was mortified. I, naturally, crucified her for it. The dirty bitch.ironilunga wrote:The rare occasion of hearing someone fart out loud in polite company and being utterly mortifed by it.

Just the stupid things people do. When I see things like this I always laugh and snap a photo of it.

Re: Little things in life that make you smile
Picking up the little 'un from nursery or him waiting for me to get in from work... "DADDYYYYYYYYYYYY"!!!!
Furthermore with the little 'un, watching all the cartoons/ kids programmes and going to all the places that my old man would never have taken me. We took him to the East Anglian Railway Museum on Sunday for their 'Day with Thomas'. Big smile as he loved it and I could indulge in a bit of nostalgia.
Sitting down to watch the football/ boxing with a cold Irn Bru and a bag of pretzels. Penn State now do gammon and mustard flavour... joy!
Being indoors when it's pissing down and watching everyone getting drenched.
That feel when someone tries to drive through a puddle and splash you, only for you to style out of the way.

Re: Little things in life that make you smile
Stuff like your kids being pleased to see you shouldn't be considered "little things". They're the big things in life, IMO
Hearing swearing on TV, especially when it's unintended & pre-watershed.
Favourites - Lydon saying "Oh, f*cking c*nt" when he didn't get voted off "Celebrity" - although he patently wasn't upset & was loving the attention.
Slash being interviewed on some kids sat morning music programmed & describing how his pet snake turned round and "Bit the f*ck outta my hand".
Some TV late night sports phone in show Danny Kelly did in the 90s. Someone called in to "talk about Andy Cole" and shouting "and he f*cked me up the arse!", before being cut off & admonished by a nonplussed Kelly.

Re: Little things in life that make you smile
When you & a colleague realise you're both walking towards the same door in the office & you simultaneously start sprinting to be the first to get there. Usually involves a degree of shoulder barging & low-volume swearing.

Occasionally when tidying up after I’ve shot my load and I give my helmet a little squeeze to make sure its all out, I end up pulling out a sting of jizz that seems to stretch right back into my balls and its very satisfying to pull it out.Philosophical Dan wrote:Eh?

Re: Little things in life that make you smile
That moment when you've just slammed the car door shut while it's absolutely ****ing hammering it down with rain outside and you've made the dash to the car.
