    ian dempsey annoys a lot me when he repeats the chorus or main line from a song when it finishes playing.
    sometimes instead of even telling us what the song is.

    .... or when they talk over the end of a song.

    Mario Rosenstock. How is he funny? Some of the voices he does are good, not great, just good. And I think the owners of Today FM must have had to build an extension onto their premises, to accommodate Iano's and Mario's ever burgeoning ego's.

    As an impressionist he's ok, you could find people who could do pretty good impressions of celebrities anywhere, it's mostly vocal mannerisms and tone. I can do a few half decent impressions, doesn't mean I should be famous :pac:

    I hate when someone sits beside me on the train with a Supermacs meal. The smell makes me gag. The smell fills the whole carriage.

    Another day someone sat down with a salad sandwich with raw onions in it, I had to breath through my scarf. Yeuk.

    Was once on a bus on a roasting hot day when some gobsheen pulls out a tuna sandwich. The smell was so pungent I felt like I was eating it any time I took a breath.

    I see that and raise you all of the above plus spending the night wondering what the smell is and being told in the morning that a bottle of salad cream had been spilled over it the week before. (yes it was a college house) :eek:

    I've been away for a few years and it seems some words have disappeared from the English language like thank you seems to have been replaced by "nice one." E.g, "Have you got a €1 coin for a trolley for 2 50c?" "Here you go."...... "Nice one!" :confused:

    Has "hello" been replaced by "story?" The Neanderthal that sired my niece's boys used to walk in the house and utter "story" to all present. How does this work? Do we tell him a story? "Once upon a time there were 3 little pigs..." :confused:

    Too many 50's bud ?

    I can ease that burden for you there, it will give you more time to berate the maid for messing up your socks this morning.


    Feel you pain having to wear un-ironed socks, totally ruins a good outfit

    That TV License ad with the fellas feigning how great the punditry has gotten on sport recently. Yet it's clear they are not watching live TV but an internet stream/download. How do I know that? because the close up shows the control bar of Windows Media Player. Annoys me more than it should, don't they have someone to check things before they send it out?:mad:

    If they are watching it on a tv it doesn't matter

    I think it is SIPTU you need to be writing to. They ordered their drivers not to check some connection to allow for longer darts.

    Last night on the news the newsreader introduced the weatherman. Then he proceeded to tell us what he was going to talk about in the weather report and said 'see you in a moment'. Then they went to the intro sequence for the weather and then started the forecast.

    Why couldn't they have just started the weather forecast directly without him telling us what he was going to do 30 seconds before he did it?

    Facebook.

    I'm very close to closing my account. Everything about it annoys me lately. It's basically just a platform on which you can live your life vicariously through other people's opinions of you. I'm even sick of my own profile. I only upload/share/post when I am drunk and either maudling or self-righteous so my profile is basically a shrine to my dead dog, my live dog and whatever ridiculous posts I've decided are worthy of sharing - bull**** propaganda about being pro-life, anti enda-kenny, ban fur farming, rescue shelter dogs, go vegan, stop killing the cute little baby seals... on and fuucking on and on. Mum got her hands on my smartphone yday and started scrolling through my page with a bemused look on her face. "Quite the activist aren't you?" she said (Inside she's like, "I can't believe we raised an activist, take back that mammy dinner and boot her out the door") Fuucking morto.....

    And aside from how much my own profile annoys me, there are also those ridiculous shares from others in my news feed - the girl with the sign saying "I think I'm ugly but my mommy thinks I'm beautiful - like if you agree" and the bad taste photos of poor sick children with captions saying "Like if you hate cancer" - I mean, everyone hates cancer but whats the point "liking" something to get this across? Lately, a super annoying one has been, "like if blah de blah and....ignore if you're a bully" ??!!!! wtf?? I'll fuucking ignore a post if I like, it doesn't make me a goddamned bully!

    Finally, though I have mentioned this before, annoying relatives posting twaddle about their super over achieving kids - baby sign language and baby yoga and blah de fuucking blah. Get over it, your child is a thoroughly average sh1t machine just like every other child :P

    Pointless bollocks. I do not and never did have a FacePuke, a BoBo, nor a MyArse. Interactive daytime TV for a new (and not-so-new) generation of numbskulls.

    The one that annoys me is 'cheers' or 'sound' instead of saying thanks.
