An Post putting the 'return to sender' stickers over the addressee's name on the envelope - pain in the backside!

The sticker peels off the see-thru backing so you can see the address, there's a little green arrow at the bottom where you peel, pain in backside easing???

yep, thought you'd appreciate all that!!

i was vomitting all night so the oh went and got me one of those bag for life things to be sick into so I didn't have to keep getting up. So when I was done, I hung it on the bed. Except this morning he went to work and so did I, without getting rid of the bag of vomit. He is going to be so disgusted with me later when he realises/smells it, that is actually cheering me up a lot. I just wish I could see his disgusted face

OOOOOOOOOOHHHH Cheeesus, you win, haven't had the barfing at all though, but the fit of coughing I got reading that just realised it's not only my nasal part that's going to work in "Aliens" next time, but strange we're still going to work thru it all... lesser people etc etc

Mmm. I made the tactical schoolboy error of cruising down to Mahon Point shopping centre in Cork on the afternoon of December 23rd last. Nice place, bright, roomy, nice shops, etc. but the traffic. Oh by Cheeses the traffic in and out of the blasted place...

Whoever granted planning permission to that place, allowing it to be built with only ONE entrance/ exit should be fcuking shot with their own shit!

People abbreviating words when they're trying to be meaningful, like on my birthday recieving "HB". Tonight someone commented on my photo with my dad "GBNF" for his anniversary tonight/morning. Gone but not forgotten. You're so busy remembering you couldn't type what you had to say, oh no. If it's such an effort you'd wonder why they even comment. GBNF ffs

Also people who eat on public transport. Sitting on an empty train carriage no exaggeration, apart from me there's one other imbicle on it. where is he sitting? RIGHT BEHIND ME. And he's eating so loud he sounds like he might crack a tooth.

I've moaned on here in the past about the checkout operator that always asks me what the real ales I buy taste like. Every time she serves me she asks me and every time she asks I tell her that I don't know what they taste like as they're for my husband. Well, she outdid herself this morning. After the woman ahead of me finished mooching about taking forever to get herself together yer woman starts commenting on the customers wine and asking her if she knows about the offer the store has going. No says the customer, go and have a look says yer one on the checkout. Not content to leave it at that yer wan on checkouts has to start nattering on about what red wine she likes.

Off goes the customer to see if there are any other bottles she wants. How I didn't fcuk either of them out of it from a height I have no idea.:mad:

People who phone you when they're driving ( I don't know why this annoys me, it just does)

People with loud mobile ringtones or country and western music ringtones

When you go into restaurant/cafe, and there are loads of uncleared tables!!

Is this trivially annoying....if true?
My very reputable bin company spells my house name totally a**eways and has a few letters missing thru-out the whole address, Now imagine my "total surprise" when a load of these charity letters that have being coming over the last few weeks has the exact same mis-spelling of the house name and same letters missing from the whole address, has my very reputable bin company "bin" selling address' to other companies?? trivially annoying?

A friend of mine just put up a status update on Facebook about how crap it is working in retail at Christmas time. I'm not usually one to comment but as I'm in the same boat I replied that I feel the same and we had a bit of chat surrounding our lack of time off during Christmas and general tiredness.
A mutual friend wades in saying oh you wouldn't be talking like that if you didn't have a job. I'm sorry but piss right off! I'm sick of this attitude that people who have a job are not entitled to have the odd moan, I know how lucky I am to have a good job and I work damn hard!! Oooh my blood is boiling!!!

Whisperers - it's just plain rude. I don't care if you're drunk and it's your girlfriend you're whispering to - either call that person aside or speak up and don't be embarrassed to say you have to go home 'cause you can't handle your booze.

This. I had to go to the chemist today to see if I could get something to stop me hoofing. I practically crawled my way onto grafton street, on the verge of passing out, and had people shove into me in all directions, got to boots then and it was like battling through a stampede to get to the bottom of the shop, people pushing and weaving and out because God forbid they get held up for a second.

Boots at this time of year is truly the work of the devil. Whoever designed those narrow fu.cking aisles should be taken out and publicly mutilated.

Like people complaining about paying the higher rate of tax. Ffs you'd swear that they pay it one every euro once you cross the threshold, it's only the difference you pay it on. It's one of my goals in life to be on the higher rate of tax.

I hate PDA's. There was a couple in front of me yesterday. The most perfect couple you could imagine. He was tall and handsome. She was tall and had huge blue eyes and that surreal platinum blonde hair natural only to Eastern Europeans it seems. There seemed to be nobody else in the world as they gazed adoringly at each other. Married of course and each clutching an understated designer bag - even a manbag! *B.astards*

Across from them was a crusty couple. Tree hugging gicks chewing the faces off each other as their matted hair blew in the free wind. Backpacks taking up half the space around them, probably full of hand knits and fair trade coffee and vegan shíte. Yack.

There was nowhere to look except at the free-living vegan saps or the jewellery advertisement couple that fell from the sky when the aryan doll factory up the road exploded.

Irish rail. I got the train to work yesterday, head swimming, upset tummy, burning up with a temp. Got onto the train and it was like being in the sarhara desert. It was horrible and I'm someone who loves heat, but this was unbearable. Everybody was complaining. I moved carriages but the entire train was boiling.
So, the only member of staff I could find was the girl at the shop down the end who told me that the driver wouldn't be turning the heat off.
I asked her if she had any ice, she didn't. She remarked that I didn't look well and that I could purchase a bottle of water for 2.25

I did get the bottle of water, just to hold on my forehead. But seriously, Dafuq? Whack up the heating then suggest people buy cold water

That awful radio advert for the Tivoli panto. If anything would put you off going to a panto, this would. The one for the Gaiety panto isn't much better.

Aer Lingus check in staff sticking the baggage tag to the back of my passport.

It leaves a sticky, dirty mess on the passport when removed - It's the airline equivalent of the barman slamming your change down in the wettest part of the bar.

And they have it down to a fine art too - last time I thought I was ready but with an sleight of hand worthy of David Copperfield she had it printed, 'stuck' and handed back to me with a (slightly smug?) lip-glossed smile while I was still trying to remember where it was that I was going.

Come on girlies - Put it on the back of the boarding pass where it belongs!

I thought of a great trivially annoying thing yesterday while walking back from lunch and now I can't remember it. Now that is trivially annoying.

CrowdedHouse

Putting away (semi) important documents in a 'safe' place and then several months later unable to remember where.
Pulling the place asunder for three quarters of an hour and when I finally find them - oh yea that's where I put them

Children running riot in a library. It's getting more like a playschool every day. I delight in seeing kids with a love of books but playing hide and seek in a library or chasing each other around the shelves is not the way to it. I don't want the old style silence of a library but just a bit of common sense and respect for other users of the library.

When you're sitting on the bus trying to give someone an itch somewhere thelapathically, and they get an itch in the wrong place.

Itchy ass. Itchy ass. Itchy ass. And then they scratch their nose or something.

My housemate who gave me evils yesterday for reminding her the esb was due left her light on all night. She doesn't like to come home to the dark! It more than trivialy annoys me, as does the fact I now know her door is locked and I can't slyly turn it off.

Dry shampoo. You'd be better off just washing your hair properly. Took me about 15 minutes this morning to get my hair into some sort of order with it. I'd have it washed and dried in the time it took.

All christmas music up the respective composers arses. In fact the whole christmas thing is starting to get on my wick.
It's so overdone and all this bullshíte about the christmas spirit - PO, if I'm in a bad mood thinking of christmas isn't going to change that - it's going to make it worse.

Somebody put a tin of roses on my desk before I got into work this morning. I'm hungover from the Christmas party last night so I have no self-restraint. I'm getting fatter as I type.
