Havent seen him in The Wire but Aidan Gillen is one of the worst actors in Love Hate. Maybe is just that he was miscast. He aint no hard man.

Can't remember if this has been mentioned: people passing GATSO vans at half the permissible speed.

You know the story, limit is 80, guy in front gets a flash that the van is ahead, immediately slows down to 40!

People who do the simplest things like holding open a door for somebody or not taking the 1c change in the shop and acting all high and mighty about it

Said over and over again but Keep left, Pass right. Its such a simple concept but seems like most people on the motorways just can't get it into their incompetent brain and insist on doing 20 in the right lane while the queue behind them piles up. Does my head in on a daily basis!

Not the worst actor but I think he was miscast also. He is great in everything else I have seen him in but he was miscast in love hate. Did not find him menacing or ruthless at all.

PA systems. I've been rudely awakened this morning by the local football club's PA system blasting out 'we're all part of Jackies army' WTF it's been a fricking long time since Jackie had an army. Looks like they're having a junior kids open day. Since when is it obligatory to have a fricking PA system in a field? This is why I never give them money when they're bag packing. Hands out for donations in the supermarket but they're able to afford a PA system to blast the neighbourhood out of it, no doubt this will be going on for most of the day:mad: Urge to kill rising:P

I feel your pain, the local stadium blares out Bill Conti -Gonna Fly Now (the Rocky tune) everytime they have something on, irritates the hell out of me:mad:

People who say 'me' instead of 'my'. Makes my skin crawl. It's worse then again when some eejit that's not even from Dublin starts picking it up and using it. It just sounds rough to me.

Seriously, how hard is it to say 'my'?

They are saying "my", just a more traditional pronunciation. The word "my" was originally pronounced closer to "me" than the current sound and some dialects retain this.

When someone on boards is replying to a new thread and the first few replies are posters quoting the OP. it's really annoying when the OP is really long so and their reply is only 1 sentence long so you scrol down half the page seeing the OP 4 or 5 times.

Why do people do that? It's pretty obvious the first page at least is a direct reply to the OP.

Bunch of Gowls, Joe, bunch of Gowls.
They have me in tears.

People who say 'happy out' What is that even about? I heard a grown man use it today and it just sounds like a real bogger, hick thing.

I don't understand Johnson's baby powder ads where it shows the arse of a baby just lying there and you have the mother running her finger down the outline of the baby's backside.

I don't know why but it just creeps me out.

When people say "ass" instead of "arse". It applies to writing aswell. You're not on an episode of friends.

Religious groups harassing you on the street or at your front door. I would rather not talk about 'Jesus Christ' thanks.

People that say "Me Ma" or "Me Da" instead of my mother/mum or my father/dad. Commonly used by inbred Dubliners.

Also smelly Bog warriors who say mammy and daddy like they're 5 years old! feckers.

ALSO, it's Mam in the Republic of Ireland as far as I'm concerned, people who say mum can also kindly feck off!!!

This is a very individual annoyance, but it doesn't bother me at all the whole ma/mam/mum, hell even mummy dearest gets a pass, BUT, what actually DOES annoy me is people that call their parents by their first names! It just strikes me as an uncomfortable level of familiarity that blurs the lines of parental authority. They are your parents, not your mates.

Plenty of her relations too don't understand why 16 years later I refer to my wife's parents as Mr. or Mrs. <parent's surname>. For me it's about respect. I'm not their friend either, I'm their son in law and they are my parents in law. They've never expressed an issue with it.

The only "mom" people I know are D4 roish US accent people. It's mam, not mom or mum unless you are not from Ireland.

Mom sounds so American! It's 'Mammy' for me all the way. I need to keep in touch with my bog roots.

Americanisms and their influence on young people. Reminds me of one child I know that has a fierce Texan drawl from watching "Bear in the Big Blue House"!

Even my wife when our child used to watch Barney and I would ask her turn off that shìte she would say to me "Why? Are you afraid it might turn our son gay?", I said "No, I'm afraid it might turn him into a gibbering fcuking idiot!"
