I fully admit and acknowledge I’m a bit
(well… a big bit) of a pessimist.
My glass is more than often half empty than
full and I love nothing more than a good moan – Be it the weather; rigmarole TV;
the economy; politicians; bad drivers; rude people; poor customer service; the
youth of today; the cost of fuel; Ryan Air; queue skippers; Chomp bars now
costing 17p; price of cigarettes; Simon Cowell; Michael Bubble; reality shows;
my rapidly greying hair; traffic wardens; and so on and so forth.
If you’re of a similar disposition as me
and find nothing more satisfying and amusing than having a right wholesome
complaint session then The Disappointment Dairy, written by Nick Asbury and designed by Hat-Trick Design, is the perfect stocking filler
this Christmas (Don’t get me started on Christmas!!!)
I had a wee chuckle to myself this morning
when I stumbled upon it.
Filled with amusing downtrodden quotes such
as, ‘Everything happens for a terrifyingly random reason.’’ And ‘’Wine before
beer, cry yourself to sleep. Beer before Wine, cry yourself to sleep.’’ Along
with a page to fill with your friends and contacts telephone numbers entitled,
‘People Who Never Call,’ this diary is pretty much a handy phrase guide for the
wannabe defeatist.
Pessimist or optimist, this diary will at
least raise a wee smile on your face.
