    Having a rubbish night out :( what a waste of time.

    People who stare at departure screens in airports for 10 minutes straight. How long does it take to check the Gate Number/Flight info:confused:

    A ringing phone when I'm eating or washing dishes.
    Someone calling me when I'm in the bathroom.

    Looking forward to a good night in watching dvds with some good food.
    End up with a rush job spaghetti bolognaise (spelling?) and the movie was 'Selma'....and very depressing. Wasted saturday night.

    Trying a slightly cheaper pizza place only to end up with greasy and tasteless crap! :mad: :(

    You're going to tell me to gtfo but trust me on this..

    I found the most delicious cheese and tomato thin crust pizza in Tesco for only €1.13.

    It's called Tesco Stonebaked Four Cheese Pizza (other flavours are available) and my God, it's gorgeous.
    I had a Goodfella's cheese pizza a few months ago, costing €4.50 and it was as bland as anything.

    Give the Tesco pizza a shot; trust me, you'll be pleasantly surprised!

    I'm trivially annoyed that I still have a cough.
    I had a cold last week, and then a cough developed. I feel 99% better but this cough is bloody annoying.
    It's the type of cough where you have to stop what you're doing and brace yourself because it comes from the depths of your being.

    I have a tiny little spot of gunk on my eyeball right in the centre of where I'm looking that keeps swimming over and back as I read words on boards.ie, it's driving me mental.

    I have an essay to do (which is an annoyance all by itself) but this stupid laptop has something wrong with it. I can't use the internet because this massive ad is blocking the college website and it won't go away. I'm already in a bad mood and this is making me feel murderous!!!!!

    Hungover.....and I have to get the train from Dublin back to Cork


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,883 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    I have a bad batch of contact lenses and they're mixed up with tonnes of the good ones (way too many to throw out). It's like russian roulette. I lost last night and now I look like snoop dog with the red eyes.

    FussyOnion, get the... no I agree. Tesco do these ones called Milanos. They're not frozen but are packaged. They're pretty good actually. :)

    I love extra mature cheddar. Quite often though it can't be sliced, it just crumbles up as I'm cutting it. Drives me nuts :(

    Finally got off my hungover arse and I'm on the train. It's roasting, packed and I am in a four seater with a guy who is having a conversation on speaker phone that is so loud I can hear it even though I am listening to music with my headphones on. This is going to be a long two and a half hours.

    I went out for my lunch and as usual I can never manage a dessert but I saw huge slices of cheese cake been served and now I want one(hours later).Ive had a kit kat but its a waste of time because all I want is that fecking dessert.I even thought of getting one to takeaway but I was so stuffed I thought that Id never again eat..Ive had a few drinks and its an hours drive away so thats a non starter.I might have a bar of Frys and see if that helps:mad:

    Thank christ I'm not the only one. Whatever you do don't get the sliced mature cheddar - it's impossible to separate them and you end up breaking little bits off just to get enough to make a sandwich.

    Driving along at 100kmph when some idiot decides to pull out from a side road and makes me break hard. Then have to drive at 60/70kmph because they can't build the speed up. Why can't they just wait until I've passed before pulling out onto the road???

    A'd that the insane thread about sex robots vanished. I think the OP of it deleted it when it wasn't taken seriously enough. :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    When you are eating in a restaurant generally you need two glasses. 1 for wine. 1 for water.

    So why on earth are there 3 other glasses laid out...getting in the way of everything....cluttering things up?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 961 ✭✭✭gingernut79


    People in front of you in the queue for the ATM having the gall to use more than one card. You get your hopes up and goddammit there they still are putting in another card.

    different glass for white and red wine :P

    Still though, hate going into a fancy pants restaurant and getting a tiny table / being crammed up against other diners where you can't hear the people you're dining with or overhear every detail of the discussion beside you!!

    No, the one about whether sexbots would put men off having families because women don't fancy men anymore and women only have "duty sex" with men for their precious seed. Something like that. It was insane.

    Thanks though, I'll have a look at that one!

    They have to look somewhere, maybe they like looking there?

    What superior place do you look instead? :confused:

    I don't see what's annoying to you that they are looking at the departure screens.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,572 ✭✭✭Colser


    I was finishing work at 2pm today and at 1.50pm I was undecided if Id start doing a process that would usually take me longer than 10mins..I glanced over at one of the "Overlords";) and decided I better get it done.I rushed through it and now Im worried that I fecked it up and because I was rushing I had to keep going back and correcting it. Now Im TAd that its TAing me when Im home so maybe I should have just taken my time and left later or sat there looking busy for 10 mins and ignored eagle eyed overlord.:(

    They are obviously using the power of the mind to hurry up time 'til take-off. As it happens, if you use this method, time travels at the exact same speed as it would if you weren't looking at the screen.

    Amazing, isn't it?
