Trivial things that annoy you part 479

How so many war films have what is almost an obligatory scene where a main character is close to an explosion, and the next few scenes are silent, until their hearing eventually comes back.

When hubby decides that soothers don't need to be sterilised for 7 week olds so I end up going downstairs to sterilise it and baba wakes up while waiting. An hour and a half of feeding, winding, nappy changing, babygro changing and darling husband wakes and asks are we still awake. No I generally sleep standing up half way between the bed and the changing unit with baba slung over my shoulder you numpty. So lucky we don't have American gun licence laws.
Why doesn't he do the work? Cos he's up at 6:30 in the morning operating heavy machinery and I usually prefer him alive. He'll sterilise everything in sight after this though!!

I just remembered something about a friend I knew. He claimed to hate Billy Connolly, saying that all he does to get a laugh is shout loud and make no sense. He said he was "not funny and generally sh*t". That's fine, like. He's entitled to have an opinion, not everyone has to like the same thing as you. That's not my TA, though.

This is my TA.

I decided to challenge his opinion without him ever realizing.

Every now and then I'd quote a joke by Billy Connolly to him while in the car with him. He'd never know it was his jokes. It became a horrible habit after a while, I'd just blurt out random BC stories (any Connolly fan will know the kind of stories he does talk about in his stand-ups) and with every punch line delivered, he laughed.

After about a week I said to him that every joke I kept telling him was directly quoted from Billy Connolly and he was stumped for words. He still told me he was sh*t but I know deep down he finds his material funny.

The Trivial Annoyance is; Hating someone or something for little-to-no reason other than just for the sake of hating them.

My TA for the day is the hate for Kilkenny winning.

I wouldn't have minded if the game had of been a classic, but it wasn't even that!!
I think we've been spoilt with Hurling finals the last couple of years, what with all the replays we got.
Kilkenny were off form yesterday, and they still won it!! a big lost opportunity for Galway.

When you're eating a roll with a lot of fillings and you take a bite and stuff starts squeezing out and ends up on your lap.

What are those?

Kevin McStays commentary oh it was a 'delicious' point by McManus.It was a 'bitter sweet succulent' chip over the keepers head..Sounds like hes on an M&S ad on TV describing their latest deserts line for the summer

About 0.001 on a scale of one to ten, but medics generally referring to a newborn child by the soulless, disembodied term "baby", as in:

Doc: So, how is baby this morning.
Parent: Baby is fine this morning. I is fine this morning too. Doctor is good this morning?
Doc: WTF?

Boombap, I was in Howth yesterday and the parking was a nightmare alright, and aul bints like the one you encountered don't help, but what about those poxy seagulls? Fcukers were everywhere!

Took the kids out to Howth today, driving around for a bit trying to find parking.
Seen a car getting ready to pull out, so I stop and jam on the indicator. The other car isn't quite ready, that's grand, the folk behind me start to drive around as they can see what is happening.
Car reverses out of space, starts to drive off, I drive slightly past the space, put the car in reverse, start the manoeuvre and a black SUV thing flys around me and into the space!
I got out of the car and said to the lady, "Excuse me, I was reversing into that space", she says something like "it doesn't matter" gestures something with her hand and nods her head.

Now at this point, if she had of said 'Sorry, i didn't realise' then I would have knew that she genuinely didn't see me.

The next words from my mouth where (rather loudly)

"YOU MOTHERF*CKER"

she was taken aback, people stopped in their tracks. Next words out of my mouth

"YOU ARE AN IGNORANT F*CKING AS$HOLE"

and she walks off.

While this was happening, some lad chimed in....'You're dead right buddy', the where murmurs from others as well, I think someone even clapped.

I couldn't believe it. I got into the car and explained to the kids that I was silly for using bad language and apologised to them.

We found parking a short time later and started to make our way to the sea lions. Guess who just happened to walk last. She said 'That is terrible language', my response was, 'Maybe, but at least I'm not a horrible person'.

If my kids were not there, I would have gone bonkers at her. Thankfully my kids understand that I'll only use bad language very rarely and when I do it serves a purpose. Although, I do feel a bit bad for any other kids that had to hear my outburst.

People like that make me want to do a Beverly hills cop and stuff a banana right up their exhaust pipe. :mad::mad::mad:

When you don't know if you're getting a cold or not.

It's one of the worst things; you've got a weird taste in your mouth, your nose is kinda stuffed, your tastebuds are all gone to hell and you can't hear as well as you normally can.
But I don't have any other symptoms.

Having a cold is something I absolutely hate but I'd rather have one than be in limbo like this.
At least then I could crack open the whiskey.

Crack open the whiskey anyway for medicinal purposes, just remember not to drink and drive or use heavy machinery, Sure you'll be Grand.

It's all down to cost and availability I am afraid, Hotel's are more likely to be booked up at the weekend and if the are available the will cost over 20% more.

Politicians who promise you the sun moon and stars, and then they sit back and do nothing until the five years are up,

Guys on motorbikes who think the speed limit doesn't apply to them. Even more annoying if it's a really noisy motorcycle.

Holiday countdowns on Facebook.

The overuse of hashtags on social media, especially if it's to promote someone's online business or someone's trying to make you think their life is really great/wholesome.

TA today is that I bothered to clean the windows, which I haven't done since I moved into the apartment. Once it got dark and I walked through the living room I got a fright at the creature staring into the room at me just to realise that it was my own reflection.

Damn you, window cleaner...never again

Or when the only available parking place is in between two crooked parked cars. So you reverse in between them and park , go do your shopping or whatever and when you come back , your car is the only one that is left parked crookedly and people give you pitying looks ,hate that

Yeah that, but at least you fit in. There's times when it's so tight the spot is just wasted.
