    People who say "mwah" when greeting each other with a 'kiss'.

    People cycling on footpaths who play chicken with pedestrians.

    Students from a certain Mediterranean country blocking up the path.

    People who are stunned when one is Atheist.

    People stopping right in front of you on the path.

    People who great by kissing on each cheek. What's wrong with a hand shake or a hug if it's someone you know really well?

    A greeting with a kiss, handshake or hug is fine - it's the "mwah" sound they make.

    Women going round with the lip hair of a 16 year old young fella showing his manliness.

    There was one there the other day in a certain bank branch in a large shopping centre in Dublin serving me.

    If its any consolation, I'm also immobile at the moment, high as bejaysus on medication.

    Things that annoy me:
    Coming home from holidays
    People who get annoyed at crying children on planes
    Taking my belt off at the security check in the airport
    Losing my flight tickets somewhere in the airport and running around like a lunatic trying to find them
    Sunburn - f*ck you sunburn
    Gout

    Earplugs. They are so uncomfortable and annoying to sleep in. I've tried loads of types and none of them are comfy. Also, itchy skin, for some reason my face is really itchy and driving me mad.

    Re your itchy face, Pumpkinseeds, mine has also been driving me crazy for the past while! Have been to the doctor and pharmacist - still suffering! The pharmacist has been having the same problem. :( La Roche Posay anti-irritation balm provides some help!!

    Thanks. I've tried Cetaphil this week, just had a reaction to that today:( I hate having sensitive skin. All the stuff that's supposed to be gentle on skin just inflames my skin. I'm back with my Dermatologist next month for something else, so I'll see what he suggests too.

    The Cetaphil was 15 quid and it'll probably be more expensive for La Roche Posay and Elave. Even tried the Moo Goo range and that irritated my face too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,472 ✭✭✭brooke 2


    Good luck! Have more visits ahead of me also, I suspect!! :(

    Really, really annoying!!!!!

    YES! Wtf is that?? You end up rubbling the back of your tongue on it trying to scratch it! Or wiggling your finger in your ear and it only makes it worse.

    I had a hair stuck in my throat last night, was really frustrating. I thought if I ate something it might go down with it. I had a flapjack in my bag but was worried my OH would wake up and see me eating at 1am and think I'm some sort of secret eater :o

    Well I had an allergic reaction to shampoo, it got up my nose. Was driving when the allergy start frustrating me, I had no tissue to blow my nose, so in turn that caused me to have a sore throat, followed by a summer cold followed by that damn itch!

    :mad: Why do people take their mutt out for a walk, bag up the dog crap, and throw the bag on the grass verge? Why? Who could be so fúcking inconsiderate and lazy that they think this is remotely okay?

    People around my area broke their arses cleaning up the Dodder. We try to keep the place nice and do what we can for the area we all live in. Yet, there is some lazy fúcker who thinks it perfectly okay to throw his/her dog crap around for others to clear up. When I find out who you are, I'm gonna shove your lazy fúcking face in this heap of shíte you've created.

    bridgedirt_zps6f7296e8.jpg

    I watched this pile grow over two weeks. Every day, there'd be another bag added to it, sometimes two. It's the same type of bag and the same spot, so I reckon it's the same person. I've tried varying my walk/cycle to work times to catch her/him in the act but haven't yet. I've been on to the Council and they can do nothing unless they catch this tosser in the act. No sooner than it's all cleaned up, then the shít-bagger is back with the bags of crap and the pile begins again. Grrrrrrr.

    Ps - if anyone else travels along the Dodder cycle path near Milltown, keep an eye out for this clown. The pile is always at the corner of that little footbridge at Bankside Cottages.

    One man in work who I cannot stand- he microwaves fish in the staff microwave- acts like there is nothing wrong and cannot understand why we "spoilt europeans" object to him microwaving fish. Wouldn't mind but he doesn't even work on the same floor or dept. Grr.

    It mustn't have been all that important. Or maybe, just maybe it was so important that all record of it has been wiped Big Brother style.

    When your toast goes cold before you have a chance to eat it.It has to be hot with the butter melted in

    There are never any buses (they all cease to exist) between 08:25 and 08:35*

    So, if getting one at 08:35 means you will be a little late, you think, ok well sure I'll get myself to the bus stop ten minutes early...so you get there at 08:25 feeling delighted with yourself, and spend ten minutes waiting for the fuucker at 08:35 that you would have got anyway :(

    So really, unless you are going to be more than ten minutes early there is no point being early at all.

    *Trivial annoyance: I know this and still keep fooling myself.

    Oddly enough, I rather like cold-ish toast myself, with a layer of creamy butter on top that I can actually see. The fridge is a bridge too far, though! :D
