Scones or buns that have surprise raisins in them. Yuck.

When people have a huge trolley full of shopping and are ahead of you at the till and they're only unpacking the trolley and it's taking ages and you only have one or two items and they don't ask you if you'd like to go ahead.

Vile, vile experience. I had it and it lasted over 2 weeks.

We couldn't figure out what it was at all! Is the milk off? Is something else off?

Found out a couple weeks after. Nothing worked! Not mouthwash or chewing gum or anything!

What is it with all this European elections stuff in Irish popping up everywhere? Any party or candidate that does that can be guaranteed of not getting my vote. Frankly, there are more non Irish speakers than Irish speakers in this country. It'd be really great if the powers that be could pull their heads out of their arses and stop paying homage to a dead language.

People getting at Irish, sorry Pumpkinseeds. Though they won't be getting my vote but for a huge range of reasons. Oh and the fact I have decided not to vote.

Well now I did think it was hayfever, though I've never had it before, but when my nose got completely stuffed today, I figured it was another cold.
I've been sniffing more often than a clubgoer on a Friday night and I know it's p!ssing my OH off big-time.

I hope it is only hayfever. I can't be doing with another cold.

I thought that was the story behind pancake Tuesday? My life is a lie!

you are correct. no lie. rich foods were used up before the dietary rigors of lent, hence the name mardi gras, fat tuesday. last great feasting before fasting. not just cream etc but meat. not what we call dairy per se as cows had to be milked etc but fewer at this season because of calving.

People who use self service machines at tesco and encounter a problem within seconds.

Please, its not the machine, its you. Learn how to use them or else use the conventional checkout.

Some woman trying to do her weekly shop on the bloody thing the other day.

Slowly examining every product for a barcode, scanning as if she's six years old and gets to play "check out", halfway through, places handbag in bagging area, then fcuks up whole process.

Arrive at checkout, press "brought own bag", place bag open, scan and pack, pay, bag already packed so you're not spending eternity packing goods after.

And some ppl have the cheek to get upset at these machines when clearly they've created their own problem.

And perhaps this is something trivial ppl will hate about me, but I love zooming up, scanning, and be done. Sorry for being an ar*ehole, but all I want to buy is a 27cent banana ffs!:p

jeepers... have some patience! so much angst over such a small event.... the world does not revolve around your one banana...it really doesnt....people like you fussing and fuming are a pest! try helping the ones who are having problems, with a smile.

people on boards who cannot accept tnhat you have a different world view and opinions from you and follow your posts to contest whenever they can, for the sake of it.

hey there! so i am of a different idealogy and world view.... get over it! maybe learn something new!

as i do every day here..

ps going back to hospital for yet more a surgery probably on wrist that is not healing so will not be back a while

The sounds my OH makes when she is eating a Twister ice pop. She sounded like a thoroughly satisfied lover yesterday walking down the street.

Why does that bother you so much? Do you never hear this sound besides when she is eating ice pops or something? if my OH was making those types of noises in front of me i would be looking for the nearest place to drag her into to make some of my own!!

With a score of 36 out of 66 (although a few more were borderline)

"You hate people. It’s true. But you haven’t totally given up faith in humanity and that’s impressive. You still have a little more hate left in you to give. Treasure that hate and save it for a special occasion."

Thank God i have this thread to vent on!

You’re definitely a category 5 people hater. You hate them so much. Your hate reserves are probably at a critical level because of all the hate you’ve generously given out to the people of the world on a daily basis. And it makes total sense. People suck. Hate on, hater.

"You only sort of hate people. Sometimes. When they’re being the worst. And that’s perfectly natural. You don’t put up with any nonsense but you’re probably not a d*ck."

Wow, I surprised myself there :eek:

I think it's because I'm in a good mood. The test results would more likely dramatically change if I was in a bad mood. However, I am not afraid SpaceCowb0y, as stated I don't take any nonsense, I'm not a d1ck but I can be a b1tch!:p

I asked my mother once when I was about 12 if she could imagine what it would be like to have two of me. Her immediate response was "No, God no! You are something else and one of you is enough!":D
Bear in mind I have two brothers...

Trivial thing for this morning: having to get up early even though I've a day off.

I only got 64 out if 65 (I didnt select the slow driver one because I am a learner and I hate when ignorant so and so's drive up my hole) - but I also thought of another 60 to add - does that count?

Signing up for overtime then realizing they hadn't even offered incentive... D'oh!

Hardly "trivial" but definitely ANNOYING!

It's just as well we have this thread to vent. Otherwise many of us would have had our Michael Douglas moment from that film Falling Down, and gone on a violent rampage, it's still touch and go for me. I could feel my hand twitching when the woman in front of me in Dunnes was dithering this morning.

The dark part of my soul wanted to shout at her to pack faster and hit her repeatedly with my empty shopping bag:D
