Women crushing kittens to death. Not pleasant.

The King of Moo

Women born in free democratic societies who choose to convert to Islam and enter into a marriage in which they're subservient to their husband: wearing the headscarf, walking behind him etc.*

I think in at least some cases they must have serious, Samantha Brickesque self-esteem issues.

*I know that this is not the case with all people who convert to Islam, and not all marriages between Moslems are like this.

Poeple going to music festivals and pretending to have a good time even though they can't hear the music, the band is ****, it's raining, full of skangers.

people who pay to text a vote in TV talent contests , as Fry would say..."shut up and take my money!"

cloud493

People who argue in a shop over, like 2 cents change.

people, in general

murphm45

Desset (the the sweet food you sometimes eat after your dinner, not the dry thing full of sand).

Don't get me wrong i like cake, ice cream etc but i don't understand the logic of eating it right after your dinner. I mean i've just had a lovely roast dinner ... now how do i get the taste out of my mouth?! Why people why?!!!!

RaRaRasputin

Hordes of Irish women on a Saturday night in the city centre, who all seem to be in a look-alike competition. Fake tan, straight hair, dresses 2 sizes too small that look like aluminium foil...and one more stupid and drunk than the next.

Women who have some proper self esteem stand out because they look better than those bimbos.

Demonical

Why people rarely flash to say there is a speed van/garda car on the road up ahead any more..
Why people just dont know how to drive properly
and life and people in general...

Maybe they don't want to help speeders?

BlueSmoker

I don't get cars, although I get shoes, hats and jackets
I don't get sport at all, but I get dancing and music
I don't get some peoples' ideas, but I do get that what they are saying is important to them

I don't get how I don't understand life and it's ins and outs for being human, but I do get why all of us feel that way, the last thing I don't get is how alot of people don't actually see that, and assume everyone should agree with them

I think it's it kinda hot

People taking newspapers to the bathroom with them

Why??

If it's to take it handy in work and chill a bit from a stressful job I can understand it
But people do this in their own homes too

To help the boredom of sitting on the toilet?

sunflower27

People that need to have the latest gadgets before anyone else. Those that queue up overnight to get some new phone/laptop so they can swan around for a few days before everyone else has bought it.

So lame. :rolleyes:

Merkin

People that feel the need to post every single element of their dull and vaccuous little lives on Facebook to their 7,000 "friends".

Status Update: OMG loike I've just passed wind
Followed by 375 loikes
Followed by 823 comments: No focking way loike!!! OMG!!! Amazing!

Yawn :rolleyes:

People who think laws/rules such as speeding, drink driving, traffic lights etc don't apply to them.

What don't you get, Ah? Things people like, that you think.... what's going on.
For me, to start off, foot fetishes. I don't get it. How someone can find a foot sexy.
And, jaffa cakes. Discuss.

There's nothing like getting a footjob while eating jaffa cakes. My idea of heaven.

The King of Moo

Organisations using London Calling by The Clash to promote London.

Some sample lyrics:

London calling to the faraway towns
Now that war is declared-and battle come down

London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
London is drowning-and I live by the river

It's not like the music's very upbeat either.

To a lesser extent, I don't get whichever camera maker used People Take Pictures of Each Other by The Kinks for their ad (though at least it's a one-off).
Surely someone must have researched the lyrics:

People take pictures of the Summer,
Just in case someone thought they had missed it,
And to proved that it really existed.
Fathers take pictures of the mothers,
And the sisters take pictures of brothers,
Just to show that they love one another.

You can't picture love that you took from me,
When we were young and the world was free.
Pictures of things as they used to be,
Don't show me no more, please.

People take pictures of each other,
Just to prove that they really existed,
Just to prove that they really existed.
People take pictures of each other,
And the moment to last them for ever,
Of the time when they mattered to someone.

People who have to make everything a competition and tight people.

juan.kerr

Piercings, tattoos and men wearing jewellery (other than a watch and wedding ring).

Daveysil15

Young ones on social networking and dating sites who upload countless alluring self photos which shows off not only their considerable physical features, but also the make and model of their digital camera.

This.

languagenerd

Most fashion trends: particularly wearing leggings without a skirt/long top over them, leotards, tiny shorts that don't even cover your ass, Ugg boots, harem trousers with the crotch somewhere near the knee, dresses made out of silver sequins that blind everyone around you everytime they catch the light...

(For the record, I am female)

eug87

Billionaires like Warren Buffett (81) that can't be happy with what they have and retire??
Or that Billionaire J.P McManus pay's no tax in Ireland,build's a school in Limerick and is hailed a hero.

Man-bags.

Father's day and Mother's day.

People that adore and aspire to be Kim kerdashian,Katie price and the like.

People that hate tomatoes and love tomato ketchup.

I really don't get this question. It's ****ing simple. It's in the ****ing name. Fig ROLL.

They get a piece of fig or whatever, put it on the end of a long narrow piece of, em, roll and they roll it up. You can even see the crease on the bottom of the thing.

That question answers itself.

Yep, used to work with a girl that had to win everything on work quiz nights. It was meant to be a laugh but she always took things waaaay too seriously. She even got into a really bad mood if she lost or if someone in her 'team' let her down

And yes, she was tight as well.... she once got her mother's b'day present from a freebie on pigsback or whatever it is called (and no, she was not broke!)

Tight people that think no-one notices are the worst. Of course everyone notices.

FishBowel

Rock schools. What's the point? Everyone knows the best bands can't play or sing so why do people need to learn how to do everything right? They should call these things Session musicians school!

I don't really interact with them to the degree to need to be able to tell the difference bewteen them, to be honest.

Why so many people feel the need to spit in public? Some parts of Dublin (especially O'Connell St) are covered in disgusting saliva and phlegm. I accidently stepped on a big wet slippery one on the way to the bus stop a few days ago. Hideous!!

Why so many people, who are perfectly logical and reasonable in every other aspect of their lives, believe in a God but think the idea of intelligent life on other planets/galaxies is ridiculous?
