High On Life’s talking alien guns aren’t as annoying as you might think
I went into my High On Life hands-on session with one expectation: its talking alien guns will annoy the heck out of me. But in a surprising turn of events, I left thinking the game was a real highlight of my time in Cologne’s multi-hall maze of excellent people and overpriced schnitzel.
And most importantly, the guns didn’t annoy me at all! In fact, their craic contributed a great deal to my enjoyment of the strangest FPS I’ve played in a while – one where I was forever grinning at the screen like an idiot. If you’re a fan of Rick And Morty from before it got weird to be a fan of Rick And Morty (or Squanch Games’ back catalogue, or general bizarro laughs), this is one for the wishlist.
I’m a bridesmaid & I asked the bride to stop one annoying thing weeks before the wedding – her response left me stunned
A BRIDESMAID has shared a request that she made of the bride and the shocking reaction she got weeks before the wedding.
The frustrated friend took to Reddit to explain how she called the bride out for being slow to book things and leaving mundane tasks for the bridal party.

“She seems to be ending friendships over this,” the user posted on the infamous AITA channel, where people seek advice on life and conflicts.
The user wrote that her friend of 15 years, Jan, got engaged last spring.
The Redditor threw her an engagement party, and even started a text thread for herself, Jan, and another bridesmaid Sarah to help her plan the wedding, agreeing to touch base once per week.
Since then, Jan’s wedding chats have far exceeded the allocated time, the user claims.

“It’s taken over every conversation, and we feel as if we’d like to talk about things going on in our lives too,” the bridesmaid said.
“Sarah doesn’t like weddings and was happy to have space once a week, but with it spilling over, tells Jan that she does not want to talk about the wedding anymore, and needs more of a give and take in their friendship.”
The Redditor said she doesn’t mind talking about the wedding with Jan, as their conversations “flow better” that way, and noted that Sarah and Jan were “working” on the friendship.
It was when the user visited Jan, who lives 1,000 miles away, that things spilled over.

“I visit Jan for my birthday for a week and find that she has booked nothing except the venue and an event planner, which she isn’t utilizing,” she wrote.
“Her wedding is now in 8 months and she wants 150 people there (big event!)
“I also have control issues (ie it gives me anxiety to watch people fail/not do something myself when I could fix it) when it comes to these sorts of things, so I tell her repeatedly that she needs to start looking at vendors if not booking them right out.”
She said that she told Jen that if the pestering became too much, to communicate with her, so she could stop.
The bridesmaid explained how she helped make Jan’s wedding website and an invitation insert while Jan went to appointments.
The bride also had her bridal party stuff envelopes that night.
“While we stuff envelopes later, she just watches all of us doing it while on the phone with her mother and saying how happy she is that it’s getting done.”
Then the story took another turn, when Jan started texting the Redditor things like “can you pick up this for the wedding?”
“I have a chat with her and say that I’m happy to talk and help her plan, but I do not want to do it for her and don’t want to feel as if I’m bullying her into booking vendors,” she wrote.
She went on to tell the bride that if there is no action behind all the talk about the wedding, then it’s not productive and she’d like less of it.
“She acts off for the rest of the trip. Almost a month and a half later, she cannot talk on the phone and can’t seem to carry on a conversation,” the Redditor wrote.
She added in a comment: “If its too much she freezes and I think she froze very early in the process, but still wants to monopolize our time with the wedding while not doing anything for the wedding.”
“She seems to be ending friendships over this, I ask her fiancé if he can assist as when I try to talk to her, I can’t get through.”
Many people reassured the Redditor that she was not in the wrong.
One commenter told the user to wash her hands of the wedding and advise Jan to use an event planner.
“It’s not your responsibility to organize or plan this girls wedding. If she wants a wedding she can grow up and do the work herself,” one said.
“She seems too self-absorbed to recognise how her behaviour is coming across nor would she care. She wants all the attention but none of the effort,” said another.
Eliminate annoying gnats and fruit flies with a Katchy bug trap on sale
SAVE 50%: Eliminate mosquitos, gnats, and other annoying insects from your space with the Katchy bug trap. It’s on sale for $25.19 at Amazon, which includes an extra 10% off coupon, as of August 12 — that’s $24.80 in savings.
Even if you’re a lover of all living things, we all have our limit for how long we can keep our cool with a gnat or a fruit fly buzzing around our face. When you’ve reached yours, grab a Katchy bug trap to evict those pesky insects from your home.
The Katchy indoor insect trap uses a combination of UV light, a fan, and a glue board to attract and trap small flying insects like gnats, fruit flies, and mosquitoes. And as of August 12, it’s on sale for just $25.19 at Amazon with the clipped 10% off coupon — that’s a total of 50% off its MSRP of $49.99.
This silent killer has a UV light that attracts the bugs and a built-in fan to reel them in. The sticky glue board finishes the job, ensuring fruit flies, gnats, and mosquitos are done for. To get the best results, turn it on at night, since light attracts bugs, and set it close to insect-ridden fruit, plants, or the trash can.
It’s designed to fit into your home seamlessly, rather than looking like an ugly bug-trapping device. You won’t have to constantly look at the dead bugs aligning the glue boards, in other words. They’re conveniently tucked inside the Katchy, only to been seen when you swap them out for new ones.
While it’s no miracle worker and probably won’t put a dent in a genuine bug infestation, it can handle those gnats, mosquitos, and fruit flies. And aren’t those the most annoying of all the bugs?

Worst House on the Street fans all have the same complaint about presenters after spotting ‘annoying’ habit
VIEWERS of new Channel 4 show Worst House on the Street were left complaining after spotting the presenters’ “annoying” habit.
Tuning in for the first time on Tuesday night, fans were immediately left reeling after noticing how show hosts Scarlette and Stuart Douglas continually focused on how much the property was worth.

Fans complained the presenters kept mentioning the valuation[/caption]
The property programme sees the renovators meet with couples and families looking to transform their homes on a budget.
The presenters met with Harry and Yimika, who were hoping to transform the run-down terraced property in Purley, London.
The couple had purchased their home for £415,000 – and had a maximum of £40,000 to spend on making it look brand new.
Harry and Yimika were clear from the start that they planned to make the property the perfect place to start a family.

However, the presenters continued to mention how each of their decorating decisions would “add value” to the home.
Fans felt the focus was continually shifted as to what the house would be worth if they sold, despite them explaining it was to live in.
“I’m confused, are they doing this to flip it, hence all the talk about the value or are they doing it up to live in it?” one wrote on Twitter.
Another chimed in: “So they’re actually doing the house up to sell? I thought they were creating a home?”

A third added: “Worst House on the Street is cracking me up with all the value talk when they are planning to live there?”
“Can’t they spend their money on making their house the one they want it to be, rather than one that’s worth more?” a fourth asked.
While a fifth concluded: “Why they keep mentioning profit margins though? I thought this couple were creating a family home for themselves. Make it somewhere you’ll love!”
However, other viewers were left impressed by the valuation, after revealing a HUGE £32,000 profit on the property.

After finding the average of three estate agents, the house was worth an average of £485k after the renovations, with one agent saying it could be worth up to £500k.
