My wife just made me iron my own jeans! What should I do? I've tried hitting her.
Burn her with said Iron.

Don't iron your jeans.
Doing an assignment for uni. Word limit is 2000 (10% leeway so 1800 basically). Have made all my points and included 7 academic references, but only sitting at 1550 words. Is it better to add in pointless shit and risk losing marks for detracting from the essay question just to reach the word count?

Tough one. You're probably under the mark a little too much. I'd try and find a few points you could elaborate on.

Yep, gotta add in some filler
Unless the essay question is incredibly basic, it shouldn't ever be an issue to reach 2000 words. There should definitely be areas that require further explanation if you're only sitting on 1550. Also, I don't know what you study but 7 references seems a bit on the light side.
You've obviously not expanded on things as well as you could.

Depends on the subject. If they are strict on word counts then pad it out. If the word count is more a vibe then I'd leave it. If you can make all your points articulately in 1550 words why waste the lecturers time (and yours) padding it out with rubbish.
In my opinion quality over quantity. Lecturer won't be checking too strictly, especially if he/she needs to read hundreds of them.

1550 is pretty significantly short, find something else to talk about and add that in.

Why are so many Irishmen f***ed up?
Never met one who doesn't lose their shit after a few drinks ending up in a gutter or shirt off throwing punches.

I think it's a travelling thing more than anything.
I lived there for close two years and barely saw a fight in the pubs.
Come back to Australia and it's on for young and old when there's Irish in the pub. Same with the Pom's for the matter too.

Seems like every time there is an Irishmen around they lose the plot. Classic situation the other night, friend has an Irish boyfriend who came along to a house party. 12am hit and next thing there are pint glasses and fists being thrown at her in a rage of jealousy! He had to held down as the cops were called.
A few weeks ago standing in line for a nightclub, this Irish chick just lost the plot and started swinging at everyone within 10 metres of her, fell over and cracked her head open.
About a year ago another Irish chick had a melt down on a holiday with friends. Had a huge tantrum then went missing in the middle of the night. Boyfriend was beside himself. Turned up the next day....pregnant to another man!!!
Cray crays.

At Temple Bar in Dublin I barely saw an Irishman, it was full of tourists, annoying Americans mostly.
I never saw any fights in the other pubs we went to there but we did get a few death stares from the Irish lads who weren't impressed that we doing better with the Irish girls due to our Aussie accents.
A mate of mine also got mugged at knifepoint in Galway by a gang of local toughs when he was walking back to our hostel late at night, the campaigners took his wallet, watch and a ring that he got from his grandfather for his 21st that was an old family heirloom.
An Irish mate of mine that I played rugby with here in Perth was a mad campaigner when he got on the booze, he was always getting in brawls in pubs when we went out. The guy knew how to fight and he fought dirty too, not just punches but headbutts, biting, kicking etc, the sort of guy you didn't want to mess with and I never saw him come off second best in a brawl.
We were at the Perth Cup one year in Tentland where you get unlimited booze all day, towards the end of the day some bloke apparently had a crack at his missus, probably just looked at her the wrong way or something as it didn't take much to set him off. Nek minnut he was beating the shit out of this bloke, a couple of his mates tried to step in to help him and he belted the shit out of them too, we had to drag him out of there before he killed someone.
The funny thing was he was one of the nicest, most mild mannered blokes you could meet when he was sober, he worked as an accountant and also had a law degree so he was no dope, he just turned into an animal when he had a belly full of booze, a real Jekyll and Hyde character.

I have applied for a traineeship at a real estate company. At the bottom of the advertisement there was a contact number regarding the job. Would you call them and ask questions to show that your keen?
