    Not really trivial things though, are they? If you're fat and ugly you probably don't stand a chance even if you chew with your mouth closed/mind your manners/ smell lovely/ are open-minded when it comes to music/don't pick your nose etc.

    You're essentially doomed.

    I'm just gonna put this out there... It is not, "People that do X/Y/Z", it's "People who". PEOPLE WHO!

    For me it would be a turn off if me GF earned more then me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,204 ✭✭✭FoxT


    - Can't drive competently
    - eats with mouth open
    - silent in bed.
    - wears cheap pink tracksuits....with big belly flap hanging out
    - moustaches
    - Says Yaarigh when means "Are you Alright, Darling"

    If she earned more than me, I would be happy out but it would be no compensation for any of the above.

    -coughing/sneezing without putting his hand/tissue in front of his mouth
    -belching on purpose (it's not funny) or belching without saying excuse me
    - continuously sniffling instead of getting off his arse to get a tissue and blow his nose

    I'll stop now before I seem completely neurotic...
    No wait - guys who talk with food in their mouth, ugh!

    Some women are mental.... such a list :D, especially no 3.

    Moaning (not the kinky kind)

    guess that's me out then drav

    :(

    tried to find the post to quote it but someone there said something about people pronouncing 'specifically' like 'pecifically', what is this about?? I had a lecturer who used to say this, and for some reason she used to use it an awful lot, which made it ten times worse. It's not a fricking word! :mad:

    I used to be very put off people / guys not able to spell very well, but I've softened up on that a bit. I mean I like my men to be intelligent but hey some people just have some problems with spelling. Though I do like to see some effort to get things right.

    The phrase "thanking you" annoys me for some reason.

    Whenever someone says it I say "welcoming you"

    Astrology believers
    Mispronunciation

    Tattoos and too much Make-up. And D4 accent on Working-class vocabulary. Be who you are.

    However, bitching about people behind their backs and general gossip trumps all. But that's not Trivial.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 874 ✭✭✭eilo1


    Men who speak over you or interrupt your sentences.

    People who have to be right all the time.

    People who have to have the last word.

    No table manners for example speaking with your mouth full, chewing with mouth open.

    Football obsession :mad:

    Last but not least - no I do not think your cool because you are in a band/play guitar/are an artist/have a soft side that nobody understands!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,099 ✭✭✭Dean820


    If the first question they ask is: "What car do you drive?"

    Bye bye.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,466 ✭✭✭Snakeblood


    When I fancy someone, sometimes something fairly fickle will totally kill it for me. For example guys putting knifes into their mouths to suck food off. Anyone else got something fairly innocuous that makes their heart sink and lose the buzz for someone.

    When they say 'Get away from me you horrible creep, it's obvious you've never touched a woman in your life'. Major turnoff right there.

    yeh i hate it when i meet a woman at a party and i ask her will she play the classical guitar or acoustic and she say's she doesn't know how to play the guitar now thats fickle. but fortuately the other day a woman did take the offer of playing and she was excellent so it worked out for me. amazing woman.

    "fairly innocuous" would be listning to a woman talk about x-factor all day thats my main one. or how she looks in her new clothes. Boooooring. yawn.

    Personally I hate it when men make generalisations about women and call them 'dumb' or 'silly' or 'bitch' simply for being a woman.

    I hate it when guys wear stupid runners with the laces really tight. Especially if they're tied in a bow. It just leaves me cold.

    No. They can tie their shoelaces, but don't tie them real tight and have the bow sticking out. It always makes me think of Screech from Saved by the Bell. Especially white runners. Ugh!

    And actually, those toe runners - like gloves for the feet. They're just awful looking!
