Trivial things that annoy you

Not trivial or annoying, but thought this might raise a snigger. A few years ago, a bit of office banter kinda got out of hand, and one guy who had a habit of getting a little tongue tied when excited, completely loses the plot, flings **** all over the place, and screams this classic (which we never let him forget)at the most verbal of his opponents.

"I HOPE YOUR MOTHER COOKS SOCKS IN HELL"

Everytime I see "The Exorcist" now, I crack up laughing

Thats actually a lyric in a song by Doctor And The Crippens from the album Fired From The Circus.

Hate hate hate not being able to sleep because you've too much to think about, but then you're lying awake, next thing you know, it's 3am, there's nobody awake to talk to or distract you, and you're left alone with your own thoughts, that you've spent the entire day/week trying to avoid, and they just won't stop.

Well don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

Frack

Taxi drivers on a night like halloween, one fella undertook me at 100kmh coming into donnybrook while another overtook me doing same, racing back into town to pick up more heisenbergs and slut zombies. Bah!

Edit: that's actually not very trivial. I hate it when people post before thinking and then edit the post with some bull****.

Parents depriving they're kids of Halloween junk treats like haribo ,mini bars etc , because "he goes totally hyper on all the sugar" , no he doesn't , let him get sick , it's part of being a child, the same ones will confiscate the bag of goodies themselves and stuff they're traps after the kids gone to bed and have a resentful obese rebel on they're hands when they hit 13

In keeping with the thread: People using the wrong form of "there/they're/their" and "you're/your".

I do agree with your post though!

There's a time and a place for damp genitals and it's certainly not after you've put your clothes on.

every usb has three possible connections, the first way, the flip and retry, and then back to the first way which then works. three.

You order desert in a restaurant e.g a lovely chocolate fudgy gooey concoction, someone in the group doesn't order a desert because they're " watching the calories you know' haha ha", along comes the loveliness and you can already see the dieters eyes fixating on your desert , you have to offer some , before you know it the spoon keeps coming for repeat helpings and you realise you should just have ordered two desserts , I've decided to get militant about this now , get lost and order your own !

The same ginnet is probably the very one to whip the calculator when the bill arrives....."desert? me? no, just had the main" and a taste of my starter, a few slugs of my wine, a slurp my coffee and 3/4 of my desert:P

In my head: Smack the coconut off a wall, coconut cracks open. Job done.

Reality: Slapped the coconut off the wall, coconut doesn't fully split, snaps shut again and pinches my finger

Aye, as a kid alright my old man was a fitter/turner by trade, so he'd all the tools in his workshop, and we used drill out the holes at the top and then either use a mini angle-grinder or a hacksaw to cut open the top, then chisel out the stuff inside and use the coconuts as containers

Yeah. Mate of mine used to use a tenon saw to slice loaves of bread during his single years. Obviously he's an engineer.

Meetings are a load of sh!te generally. Wherever I've worked:

1. They never start on time
2. They have no set agenda
3. Minutes are rarely recorded
4. People sit around afterwards just talking nonsense

A load of ****.

Or the people who are "watching the calories" yet just ate a huge dinner and had a bottle of wine to themselves, you realise you're drinking calories right?

Children in queues who start to jump up and down as if in desperate need to urinate. I think it is something to do with female children practising Oirish dance moves. (have yet to see a boy child do it)
