I promised myself I wouldn't watch anymore bad news programmes, but what am I doing now but watching more sensational tear jurking bad news on a television owned by a billionaire.

I found creepies on my jellies after eating some of them. T'would turn your stomach.

One word: steam! Fill a bowl with boiling water, add some Vicks (for example). Head over the bowl, under a towel, and inhale the steam.

My TA for today: the local wildlife on Moore St. in Dublin around 5PM today. Two males having some kind of standoff over feck knows what, growling and whining at each other. If it sounds like I'm dehumanising them: nope, they were quite successful at that by themselves, before I was in the area.

I saw a rat today as I was walking by a river bank yuk.

I can't sleep, grrrr. It's been going on weeks now. Sometimes I'm like a zombie but when I hit the bed I get 3 hours sleep and I'm up again.

Those office Christmas party menus that are doing the rounds now.

Full of pretentious words like "jus" and "veloute". And what in the name of holy FÚCK is a "garlic bread flute"?

It's a misprint, should be "garlic breath flute"

Chancers! Some lady tried to pay me there for an item with a voucher for a different shop and the voucher wasn't even in Euros, it was in Punts! "Oh I'm sorry I didn't realise!" Of course she realised, the voucher even had a large stamp on the back with the shops name in which it could be used.

I changed network recently and have been absolutely fleeced, so yesterday when I completely ran out of data and credit I decided to slink back to my old network with my tail between my legs.

I sent them an e-mail last night asking how to re-activate my sim card but I have no mobile data left to check my e-mails and no wi-fi at work...and I refuse to top up anymore on the new network so I'll have to wait until I get home this evening to find out I miss Whatsapp!!

a paper had donal og cusack and his younger boyfriend on the cover with some tacky headline. It felt like they were almost baiting people to make some sort of negative comment on it, like it's some shocking scandal, a gay age-gap relationship in 2015. who'd have known? why was it front page material?

Grown adult housemates who can't figure out what rubbish goes in which bins.
Putting the bins out for collection in the morn and find a wine bottle in the recycling bin and cardboard in the waste bin. Not to mind that it's written over the bins from the bin crowd what's to go where!! Grrrr

TA: Wanting to do a spot of house building in The Sims but not being able to remember what button does what. Also, it could be HOURS before I finish installing all the expansion packs. Then there's the custom content to hunt down so my Sims actually look less pudding faced.... Hrrmm.

"Trivia" things? Come on, people, lets get our sh*t together.

Today I went and played badminton for the first time in almost a year. When all the older, experienced members arrived, they walked straight through the court where my friends were playing right in the middle of their game, causing them to mess up/ miss a shot. They all know the standard etiquette, as I've heard them giving out to others about walking on the court during a play. :mad: thankfully it wasn't me.

Badminton etiquette - a minefield of potential embarrassment.

People asking people on Facebook for the name of a local doctor/dentist/hairdressers.

Then when they get the name, they ask for the number.
One girl asked for the name of a dentist.
Four hours later, she got a reply.
Then she asked for the number.
THE NEXT DAY a girl replied with the number.

You'd have been quicker Googling?!

I'm currently trying to build my college timetable and all of the modules I want to do basically clash with eachother that's not trivial at all but I'm in a complaining mood and this is the most appropiate thread :pac:

Against my better judgment, I googled "annoying platitudes" and am now even more annoyed by trivialities than I was this morning.

* Live each moment like it is your last (well that's not a very pleasant way to live, is it?)

* Money can't buy happiness

* Life doesn't give you things you can't handle

* Time heals all wounds

:mad::mad:

Only someone broke would come out with that crap about money not making you happy. It made me extremely happy when I had it...extremely happy indeed. Miserable as a cats slapped ass now,and no, I bloody well CANNOT handle it.

Today was woeful humid all day, and I had to laugh when I was complaining about how I hate how warm and clammy it is, when someone says to me "don't like the Irish weather? Not to worry, it'll change in five minutes"... :pac:



Five minutes later it still hadn't changed :mad:

Today was lovely OeJ as were the last two weekends..my kind of weather as its nice and warm during the day but cold enough to light the stove at night and to justify some red vino as well (clutching at straws to justify my drinking at the moment;)) it has to be the weathers fault

When 4 or more people are heading toward a desk with seats and the ones due to sit on either side of the desk don't let the others slip into the middle seats first.

And also, being able to hear the joints cracking in my brother's legs as he walks by.

I have noticed a growing trend amongst groups of mid-teen lads whereby there is ALWAYS one with a high-pitched, loud laugh that is the messer in the group. Was at a match earlier and there was a crowd of them sitting directly behind me and one of them was tittering and laughing and joking at an elevated noise level (which due to the stand we were sitting in, echoed and resonated) for the whole match. Total "lad" culture. Really, really grated on me.

TA'd that the complaint above makes me feel like an ould fuddy-duddy.
