[M4F] 46, Northern Ireland — I clean, I cook, and yes, the rubber gloves are optional

Somewhere between my 30s and now, I went from "cleaning is a chore" to genuinely rubbing my hands together on Sunday morning like I'm about to defuse a bomb, except the bomb is dust on the skirting boards. Music on, hoover out, and by 2pm the house looks like a show home nobody asked to view.

I used to think this was a red flag. Now I'm wondering if it's actually a green one, proof I can be trusted not to leave a pizza box marinating on the coffee table for a week. Somebody validate me here. Is "gets weirdly happy vacuuming" a personality trait people find attractive, or is this just what happens to men once we stop pretending we're still 25?

Asking for a friend. The friend is me. The friend needs rescuing...

Bonus points if you also find a spotless kitchen unreasonably attractive.

Unexpected item in the bagging area [M46 - Northern Ireland]

Please wait for assistance.

So here I am, unexpected item in the bagging area of life. Not unrecognised, just not something the system was prepared for. I've been scanned a few times, the machine beeped, and now we're all just standing here waiting for someone to come and approve the transaction.

For those who need to check the label before proceeding: 46, male, Northern Ireland. In good shape, well maintained, all original parts. Comes with own house, car, and job. I mention this only because apparently it needs to be on the label now.

Barcode reads as: intelligent / deep conversationalist / dry humour / occasional existential tangent / strong opinions about films you've probably never heard of.

Does not scan as: emotionally unavailable / commitment-phobic / someone who describes himself as "a bit of a lad."

The humour is dry. Occasionally very dry. There may be a brief moment where you're not entirely sure if I'm joking. I am. Probably. Please allow 2-3 seconds for delivery.

Looking for someone whose barcode is equally hard to read at first glance. Intelligent, a little witty, and not afraid of a conversation that runs much longer than either of us planned.

No checkout experience required.

Letterkenny hotel

Morning gang,

Was hoping to get some recommendations / experiences of nice letterkenny hotels.

Thinking of the weather is crap then at least it’s a decent time regardless.

Room and restaurant review appreciated.
