    Same here!! Last time I was buying tampax with them and they asked me what they were for!!!!! Kinda waved my other purchase around and had to actually tell them. Pharmacist said I would need to go to the GP for prescription if "my problem" persisted.

    It is 7.15am on a drizzly, depressing morning and I would love to be in bed, but instead, no, I have to sit on the luas and watch some absolute attention seeking, hippie looking, smug **** stain opposite me do his morning stretches.

    This involves hanging off the bar with his feet dangling in the air, using the bar to stretch forward and back, neck and shoulder rolls, arms out to side while holding up one leg in the air at a time etc. And the hip gyrations I had to endure while sitting eye level with his crotch were the icing on the cake.

    And all the while he was emitting little sighs and had a look on his face like he was just about to reach multiple orgasm.

    I feel like I'm missing out for not having experienced some of the stuff that goes on on the Luas, you don't really see that many eccentric types around Limerick... :p


    (although in saying that, there's that whole - if you can't spot the eccentric type, you are the... and really, I'm not! :o)

    If you're on the red line there's a chance that it's just a strung out junky getting extreme twitches.

    There is a skater boy or skater man? Well he looks about 45. He comes around to where i live to practice his skating skills. He uses the path to do his jumps.

    He always parks right in front of my house, takes off his top, does a few lunges and squats in front of my window and then jumps on his skateboard down the road.

    I dont know how to feel about him. Sometimes he repulses me, other times, id admire the fact that he just doesnt give a **** :)

    At lunchtime yesterday I had to endure the sight of some gom in full lycra gear in the middle of Eyre Square in Galway spread along a bench doing press-ups.
    How sad must it to be so insecure that you have to have the general public witness you doing a basic exercise that you'd normally do at home.
    Gom.

    While looking out the window watching a dog crap on the communal green, a spider came down the outside of the window and then a bee/wasp came and grabbed the spider and went off with it, never seen that before, and the dog fecked off too leaving it parcel while I was distracted.

    Seeing there is a new post on one of my other favourite threads, get all excited only to find it's not a new story but a jokey/ smart ass reply to a post before it. I need to get out more !

    TA'd at the fact that the canteen in work pissed away a load of money on rebranding themselves and used it as an excuse to reduce the quality and quantity of food they serve. Cheeky fcukers charged 4 quid (sterling) for a 5 year old's portion of stew today, still hungry afterwards so ended up buying a Sainsburys meal deal afterwards. :mad:

    My mother got me a box of mince pies from M&S up in Dublin a couple of weekends ago. I love them, but put them up till a bit closer to Christmas. Just decided I really fancied one now, and took them down to discover the best before date is tomorrow. Does this mean I have to eat all the pies ??? Seriously though, mince pies best before tomorrow? Pah !

    Mince Pies that need to be consumed immediately. I'm on my way.

    Please tell me its a bonus 6 +2 pack?

    I got well pee'd off the other morning when I seen my kids tucking into my pack of mince pies. I know they dont like them, they know they dont like them, so they'll take a bit of each one, throw it in the bin. Then take the next and hope it's something different.

    went to the doctor about my pilonidal cyst this morning, she tells me I definitely have to get surgery. 2-3 months of packing a large hole above my ass with gauze and whatever else every god damn day

    then, feeling sorry for myself, I went to aldi and bought some curly wurlys, gummi bears as well as some burgers and waffles, cos im staying at dads the next couple of nights while he's away and he has no food there.

    i get to dads and realise i've left the burgers and waffles at home and I'm here for the next two days with nothing but chocolate bars and gummi bears, and the thoughts of eating any of them right now actually makes me sick

    and because I had bought all this food (that i ****ing forgot to bring with me), I didn't bother bringing any money with me so even if I wanted to walk the 40-50 minutes to the nearest shop it wouldn't do me any good

    I am not having a good day

    In any contentious/disputed topic but especially politics, you get a story with some menial headline like 'Free German classes for the over 65s to be dropped'.

    Followed on forums by the likes of 'this is surely the final proof of the end of party x'.

    'Party y are now guaranteed success oh i am so happy woohoo my life is complete while those who previously disagreed with me are broken and left crying in a puddle'.

    *Disclaimer* I had to ask a few days ago


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,373 ✭✭✭selous


    Why people are now starting every sentence with "So" or replying to a question with "Soo", it just sounds rehearsed. There's even some threads on this site and they start the question with "So".
    So I was walking down the road.
    So I'm buying a house.

    it's getting as annoying as "Going forward".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,035 ✭✭✭✭J Mysterio


    Was in a retro games shop in Cork yesterday.

    They had nothing in the shop priced ..... so you have to go up to the counter and ask how much stuff is and the guy go's on eBay and adds 10 euro to the buy it now price lol.

    And a lot of his stuff has seen way better days ....

    Where's that?

    Arrrghh I HATE THIS.

    There's a woman on that Channel 4 show, Sunday Brunch, and she does alcohol reviews with the presenters.
    Here's a typical conversation:
    "So what have we got this week?"
    "So here we have a really nice gin and it's quite strong.."
    "What about this one here? What's that one?"
    "So this one here is a port. Really nice with cheese."
    "Ooh yes, and is it expensive?"
    "So this one here is £100."

    Every fcuking sentence starts with "so". It boils my p*ss!

    The girl on Anton Savage this morning everything he asked her the reply started with "so" then the "like" came in too and the sentence ended with the last word sounding {like an Aussie}, higher, She wasn't from Cork either.

    Only one word should follow "so" and that's what!!:D
