Trivial things that annoy you part 479

TA#1: last night my flat mate gave me a disgusting haircut, I look like one of those fellows up in court on the 9 o'clock news (now I know why they really cover their heads). I've cut my hair too short many times, somehow I always think it will turn out better next time.

TA#2: There's a really hot Lithuanian cleaner in my office who is a Mischa Barton lookalike, and she is always kind enough not to vomit when I flirt with her in the office kitchen.

Anyway, she didn't recognize me at first at then sternly she said, in your best, Russian bondgirl voice, "Why did you do this to your hair?" :mad:

Why would you let your flat mate cut your hair???

Got charged double for a jar of coffee in Aldi near work yesterday. Only noticed when I got home when I was looking at the receipt for the market research I do. Today I forgot to bring the receipt in so I can ask for a refund, and I won't be in work again till Friday. :mad:. It's only 2.99 but I'm already overdrawn this week....

The amount of clothes the OH packs when we go on holiday for both herself and the kids.

I checked the suitcase she's packed for our 6 year old last night and she's put in 10 t-shirts for a 14 night stay!

We've got a washing machine in the apartment anyway so this seems beyond excessive.

Obviously I value my sexytime arrangements too much to dare question the amount of shoes she needs to bring with her - but I'm drawing the line at 10 t-shirts!


Thinking of taking half of them out without mentioning it.

People (e.g. work colleagues or friends you don't see that often) who assume you know their entire family or other friends' names after they mention them to you once at some point in the past. Then every time forever you meet them they start talking about "Mary" and "Joe" etc like you're meant to remember who these people are (as opposed to "my sister Mary" or "Joe who I work with").

I have enough trouble remembering my own friends/family names without having to remember all of theirs too!!

Your OH has in fact, under-packed! There should be 14 shirts for 14 days!!

And a few spares. Got to plan for the worst case scenario which is that the washing machine does not work and the kids make a holy mess of themselves - top to toe.

Are you going to be washing and drying the clothes?

When wearing your glasses and looking at a screen and you can see a smear or piece of dirt on the glasses. You try ignore it's there but in the end have to get something to clean the glasses!

I said I'd meet my wife and the young lad for a swim this afternoon, just out now and I'm sore as... so much for swimming supposed to be good for you, I'm in bits! Definitely pushed myself too hard.

Also TA that I lost the side bar out of my sunglasses in the changing rooms and now I have to go get another pair.

I'm supposed to be giving blood this evening but I'm not sure will I be able to do it now unless my body has some sort of a miraculous recovery in the meantime and heals itself.

I'm really not taking too well to all these "lifestyle changes", and then my wife is talking about me going swimming twice or three times a week... :eek:

Whatever dear... :pac:

It always annoyed me that I can't give blood due to having lived in England as a small child. Seemingly I may have mad cow disease or something. I always liked the idea of the snacks afterwards. Seriously though, it's such an important thing to do, I wish I could

Its a great thing to do. But the last couple of times I donated, I got weaknesses afterwards (and had to lie down on a cot with screens around me) and have now been excluded from giving blood for a bit. I must check with them soon to see if I can start again. Probably all that was needed was a good lunch beforehand.
The weaknesses were a horrible sensation, facial sweating, nausea, everything. I also miss the bottles of old school Guinness they used to give people in the 90s.

Traveled to the asia and the far east in the last few years. Check!

They dont even get to the 'risky lifestyle' questions before showing me the door.

That weakness/fainting feeling is horrible.

As I tick off the boxes on the donation form, I alway think thatbI lead a very dull and unexciting life.

No drugs, no sex where money exchanges hands, haven't lived overseas, no new tattoos or piercings....

And when asked did I ever have sex with in a prison, I have been tempted to reply "what, do you mean thru the bars?":eek:

That was depressing.

There's a 71.4% chance that most people have to work on their birthdays.

On the upside, you won't get any homework.

Una Mulally seems to be on the cusp of launching a gender equality tirade on twitter soon.
She's been complaining about the lack of female acts at festivals in ireland recently.
I'm not exactly sure if she's in favour of gender quotas or acts being invited for the sake of it.

TA'd to the extent I've unfollowed.

Snap!

Complaining that there aren't bands at a festival youd like to see is fine. Complaining because there's no gender balance?

dizzy rascals , girls but also lads these days that are so wrapped up in their appearance that they forget they have a brain and possibly a personality they can work on instead of looking in the mirror all day. Not easy to have a decent conversation with these types like omg etc

I have kids..... at home, does that not count??
Seen one a few weeks ago left her dog in the car and said that's my baby, when an old guy was giving her "the look" he gave her a different look after she said that,
Lidl in Portarlington is totally ignored so is the disabled, a guy who drives his big Merc parks in either disabled or family so no one parks too close.
