    There were two rich kid girls on the tv yesterday talking about a party and described it as epicendary. They went on to explain that it's a mix of both epic and legendary.

    Seeing as you have your arse kicking boots on there Jim Goose you can drive your boot up their holes too while you're at it.

    I'm sorry, but that is just not nearly adequate punishment. They should be forced to explain the term to a large audience who will react appropriately by throwing up all over them. Being drowned in vomit sounds a suitable response to that.

    People texting while they walk. They inevitably slow everyone down and bump into people trying to pass. Makes me want to push them straight into a bus.

    Nope, I mean people who say Kris Kringle. I don't know where "Kris Kringle" originated, but it was definitely made up by - and is still used today solely by - muppets who can't talk properly.

    Dear man in gym. You've been sitting on your arse blocking that machine for 20 minutes talking to your friend. You're not talking about the machine. Go and snuggle up with him in the changing room or something, just let me use the blasted thing and get out of here.

    'Excuse me, would you mind if I used that machine?'

    You're welcome.

    Newspaper with a sport supplement, that's fine, but then you find half the paper taken up with more sport.

    I kind of hate movember. I think people's motives are 90% vanity and 10% for the charity side of it.

    Also, some women are getting too into it, I mean I saw some women in work going around for a full day with fake moustaches on, including in meetings. It was both disgusting and irritating.

    Mind you, the fact that I'm incapable of growing a respectable moustache might make me bitter...

    There seems to be a lot of giving out about women and handbag rummaging (rightfully) but in the interest of gender equality ;)

    Men in airport security queues. :mad: "I don't have a handbag but I have every available pocket filled with items that need to go through the scanner". Queue 5 minutes of rummaging and still setting the alarm off because they haven't taken their stupid belt off. New flash! They're metal too...

    There are signs and announcements for you to take off your jacket, so take the ****ing thing off before you get to the belt! And belts, they're metal you know... And empty your goddamn pockets of change, phones, and all other miscellaneous metal objects.

    Melts my head.

    I feel better now but there will be an international incident one of these days at an airport... With this space.

    On the subject of airport scanners - their inconsistency.

    was getting connection flight through Gatwick, outbound flew through no problem, shoes set it off on the return leg. How did they not set it off going out?

    As a pretty much blind specky four eyed person i hate...ABSOLUTELY ****ING HATE anyone touching my glasses. Be it small children , even my own, or drunk mates grabbing them to try them on.
    If you break them I AM BLIND
    Whilst you are being amused by trying them on I AM BLIND
    When the Zombie apocalypse comes if you break my glasses i may as well just serve myself to the hordes on a platter.
    DO YOU GET IT!!! LEAVE ME SPECS ALONE THEY ARE PRECIOUS

    Do you go to Pheonix park?
    No, Mountjoy square, as it says on the front of the ****ing bus.
    So you go up O'Connell street
    Yes
    Do you stop at Stephen's Green
    Yes
    So you go up Leeson street?
    Yes, how the **** else do you get from Foxrock to Stephen's green.
    Ok, UCD please
    Oh, would the 46a be quicker?
    Not if you shut the **** up, pay your money and let us all get on our way.

    YES!
    And they usually bend them out of shape with their fat heads, then go "Oh my god, you're so blind".

    Some comedian had a line about this a good few years ago, comparing it to kicking someone out of their wheelchair, sitting in it, and then saying "Oh my god, you're so crippled!". :D Not PC but made me laugh.

    The machines are set to activate randomly even if nothing is detected so that the search units can carry out random searches.
