Arrived home to the RTE guide Miriam O Callaghan and Pat Shortt on the cover again. Fúck off.

I stopped buying it ages ago, same faces over and over again. We get the Radio times now.

Crowds in a certain well known toy store. You'd swear they were preparing for some sort of toy armageddon with all the pushing and shoving and generally shìtty behaviour.

"Season of good will" my hole! :mad:

I'd have to ask my husband that, he was with me, but I'm in such an ar$ey mood today he'd probably be smart enough not to answer that one:D

That's a yes then:pac:

Would it be too much for AIB if they're charging me €28 in fees per quarter, to send out a bloody text message to all customers to let them know that there is an issue with their systems at the moment and they're working on fixing it as soon as possible! They have most customers mobile numbers on file, and not all of us are on Shìtter (Twitter).

I didn't know what was going on when my wife called me to say that the ATM wouldn't give out money. I shouldn't have had to call AIB 24hr to find out what the story was, they should be making contact directly with their customers as soon as possible rather than have their customers find out when they go to withdraw funds that they can't.

People at the self service checkouts who answer their phone and continue to stand and have a whole conversation wit their things scanned. not bothering to finish or move away from the til.

people at the self service who don't even bother to try to scan the items. they just hand everything to the attendant for them to do. monopolising them while everyone else has a problem.

people at the self service who just stop still when they are scanning alcohol rather than continuing wit the bill.

people at the self service who scan something to check the price and then walk off to continue to do their shopping.

people at the self service full stop

My washing machines takes 8 kilos of laundry.

My tumble dryer only dries 4 kilos of laundry.

You don't butter your own bread? Fire those servants, they're clearly not up to the task!

A tumble dryer is it, very fancy smancy:D

Dear old man who's change I picked up off the wet ground - when someone gets bumped around and has their fingers stood on while doing you a favour, the least you can do is say thanks.

Or when you start work in a new company and you are taken on the grand tour, introduced to everyone, and by lunchtime you've forgotten half their names. Can be awkward in the staff canteen or meeting them in the corridor.

Queue jumping. 2 young Asian girls, aged early to mid 20's, jumped the queue ahead of 2 long lines of shoppers, myself included,today. As I've mentioned in an earlier post I'm all out of goodwill to all men/women, in fact the only Christmas spirit I'm finding this year is at the bottom of a large gin and tonic.

Anyway, I'd had enough of it, the giggling before they did it pushed me over the edge, so I left the trolley, walked up to them, tapped one on the shoulder and said 'Just so you know, there's a very long queue and you should be at the back of it' It's the little things that make you feel happy.

Fookin queue jumpers, should be made to lick the loose gravel off the road in the rain. Then made to sit in stocks while everyone throws rotten eggs at them. Or simply a good foot in the ass.

People using the word fab on facebook :mad: always desperate 30 & 40 something housewives. Everytime I see it, I visualise myself creeping up behind them as they type F, I raise my hand to the back of their head as they type A and then the second they press B I mush their f*cking faces into the keyboard! :mad:

People having faux cheerful discussions in the supermarket at Christmas time.

I wanted to buy some cream today in Tesco and there were these two women cheerfully discussing the pros of buying Tesco branded cream against Avonmore. They stood in front of the display of cream, yappering away pretending to be cheerful.

People who stroll slowly in front of you when you're pushing a trolley.
I feel like bashing them all in the ankles; if you want to stroll, take a hike to the Phoenix Park.

Bagpackers-I don't want you packing my bags, I don't want to donate to your charity, leave me alone.

Cold callers who call to the door when you're either cooking or eating.
Nothing you're selling is of any interest to me so go away.

Women drivers...I AM a woman but I class myself as a pretty good driver.
The majority of other women are ****e at driving; you never indicate, you never let people out, you brake for no reason, you're just generally no good.

I've been waiting on a supplier to send us an order so we can fulfill an order we have to send.
It arrived 3 weeks late today and missing a couple of items. I've already faced the wrath of our client because of the delay and now to top it off I won't be sending the full order because of these tools.

I've threatened to wash my hands of them before but that's the last fcuking straw.

Strange Boards users sending me weird PM's. Got a pm from someone with only 5 posts asking if they could ask me a question, not even someone who uses the same forums as I do. They then proceed to ask if it's ok to have more than 1 account. Then they sent me another pm the following day telling me that they've had previous accounts. I mean what the actual feck

Report the PM's. They are a known troll and that's their way of trolling.
