    The clock in my car is on auto meaning it's kept on time by signals from radio stations. All was well until I started listening to Newstalk, (I moved the dial). When I switch to Newstalk it sets the time back by 1hr 36mins. It corrects itself again when I tune in to any other station. HOW ANNOYING and trivial IS THAT?

    Try it on Christmas day...the pub is usually in flames whilst somebody slumbers in the bedsit above it.

    Was in the supermarket earlier and there was a smelly unwashed man walking around.

    This is not trivial in my opinion but people who pad out the shortest sentence with the word "like".

    "So I was like,he was like,it was like..oh my god"

    They're also fond of misusing the word "random".

    Yeah, that's part of it as well I'd say. The reek of mothballs makes my eyes water. (As a side note, how do they get the moth's legs apart? :p)

    It's the Barry's Tea 'Well, doesn't that beat Banagher' ad they have at Christmas that does my head in. Aural herpes so it is. And the worst part is the people that text in to the shows after it plays with sh¡te like 'Ah, I know it's Christmas now that I've heard that ad…'

    A wedgie usually works for me!

    In my job the women who work here always put the black bags over to the door, but will never ever take them to the bins. It annoys the life out of me. If the bags were heavy I would say something, but they aren't.

    The mechanical escalators in the shopping centre; not the stair one, the other one that's like a ramp. It goes incredibly slowly so I always walk up and am amazed by the amount of people who just stand there going up at snails pace. Do these people not have anything better to be doing? Going in today there were about 10 in front of me so I didn't bother trying to weave past and coming out some dude had his trolley right in the middle so I would have had to get up on the handrail to get past so just waited there as my life passed me by.

    Being instructed by the recording on the 2013 Dublin buses to exit by the centre doors. Dublin bus should not bother with this unless they get the driver / inspector to say this to passengers - the only useful recording is the one about holding untouched the handles and rails. The one about getting fined 3000 euro is annoying as well.

    When using upc remote control so many times either when flicking through the stations or press the buttons for the number of the channel you end up on the upc channel or some other channel way back. Must be the worst remote control ever made.

    Speaking of which, just now- any time my wife gets near the remote control! :(

    I wanted to watch "Dorian Gray" on More4, she insists on watching some "Lake Placid" crap on E4, *grumble grumble* :mad:

    I hate when I'm Lidl shopping and I don't place the (full) trolley at the very start of the belt and the person behind me starts unpacking.

    I arrived to a (surprise!) empty belt today and for some reason I placed the trolley mid-belt. I had a big shop in there, and I empty from the "end" of it, so I really don't like having to tell the person behind to stop filling the belt with their stuff as I won't have enough room for mine!

    No, it's not Dunnes or Tesco where goods can build up post scanner while i empty the trolley, but for gods sake, discount German supermarkets have been in this country for over 10 years! Observe and learn people!

    The UPC remote makes me want to stab people. It is so unresponsive so it's impossible to type in a channel number because pressing three numbers in quick succession is just too much for it. Then some times it freezes and then loads of things happen at once. Don't get me started in the box thing and it's "series link" function.

    I was all set to change to Sky recently because our year contract was up until I remembered in Feb they offered us an upgrade in our broadband speed but we had to sign up for a year from that date and I stupidly took it. Grr!
