    Shop assistants that say altogether when you have bought 1 item...

    Me: "I will have a €4 quick pick please"
    Shop assistant "that will be €4 altogether"
    Me: "no **** sherlock"

    Customers who belittle me when I have the temerity to tell them how much they're being charged altogether :mad:

    :pac:

    I didn't say you should sneeze everywhere true or false, I hate that too, use a tissue.
    Sneeze keepers really get my goat though, my friend will supress about 6 sneezes in the space of a minute with more difficulty each time.
    The silly thing about her is she covers her nose and mouth with a tissue while she suppresses :confused: I want to tell her 'just ****ing sneeze for once, live a little'.


    "Just ****ing sneeze for once, live a little" lololol :D

    For me it's shop assistants who slam the change back at you. :mad:


    How would you like it if I slammed the money on the counter you CNUT ?

    People who don't cover their mouths when they sneeze. Seriously. In fact it's not trivial at all. It makes me ILL when some numpty lets out an explosive clusterfcuk of bacteria at twenty miles an hour in a public place and then has the temerity to not even look ashamed of themselves.....:mad:

    Eating oranges in confined spaces should be illegal.

    Add to that cheese and onion crisps! EWWWW...

    A guy in my national school used this as a weapon! Whenever he was eating Tayto cheese and onion crisps, he'd belch but keep the air in his mouth and then come over and blow into some unfortunate's face!:eek:

    Prawn cocktail crisps are worse. Make a person's breath smell like fish vomit.

    Adverts and Film trailers on DVD boxsets, especially those that wont allow you to skip through them, just displays the "function not allowed at the moment" message.
    Part of the reason I bought them was to avoid sitting through moronic ads and film previews i have no interest in.

    Application rejections.

    Nothing worse than being told how useless you are. Repeatedly.

    At least with the ones that don't bother responding, you can lie to yourself and believe they never got it in the first place.

    Im the total opposite. At least have the fecking decency to tell me, you dicks. Drives me mad and nothing makes you feel more useless than whoever you're applying to not even considering it worth their while to reply.


  • Registered Users Posts: 526 ✭✭✭OnTheCouch


    + 1 for the above. So annoying when you wait around for ages for an application that you are reasonably optimistic about, only to get no word back at all.

    Hit stop, stop and play and most DVD skip straight to the menu supposedly.

    I hate the saying 'he handled it like a boss' which means he did a good job. The majority of my bosses were incompetent **** who couldn't handle a nun shoot in a nunnery.
    They should be saying he handled it like an underpayed and underappreciated employee.

    He probably has a Mac, it's a firmware setting and it can't be fully disabled. You can use a program like StartNinja to stop it, but it will then play if you have earphones in, if I recall correctly.

    I really hate ar*ey and ungrateful people. I was walking a long minding my own business today, as one does, when I noticed that the belt on the coat of the woman in front of me was trailing on the ground behind her and she was going to lose it. So as we were waiting to cross the road at the traffic lights I told her that she was losing the belt on her coat. Did she thank me for telling her? Did she fcuk, her response was to get arsey and shout 'what?' angrily at me. Fcuk it, no more good deeds for me in future:mad:

    Ahh I suppose it just depends on the person Pumpkinseeds, like sure, the woman you met today was an àrse about it, but speaking of àrses, there a few days ago I spotted a girl with the label of her thong sticking up out the back of her pants; definitely a trivial annoyance of mine, so when we were waiting at the pedestrian crossing I told her that her tag on her thong was sticking up... she was a little embarrassed but she said thank you all the same :D

    Because it was sticking up out of her pants? That's how I saw the label that was flipped up out of it, looked terrible, so I let her know...

    I'm helpful like that :pac:
