I'm all for weird and wonderful vehicle mods (my astra had a pajero roll/altimeter gauge pod on its dash...) but theres something needlessly obscene about hanging a hairy sack off the back of your hitch that just gets me for some reason..


Really pushing the lifted jeep stereotype here...

Oh my god!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

That's priceless!

I've just been reading that some water protesting group is planning on calling to every house in a particulare city and county to discuss water protests. Seriously, are these people ever going to fcuk off? It's not as if we don't know that they exist and we could hardly be unaware of their protests. Knocking on peoples doors is taking the piss.

It's not Galway is it?

Does anyone else "suffer" (a generally once-off occurance) with a balmly night around this time of year when the weather starts to improve, whereby you toss and turn all night and can't get any meaningful sleep? Has happened to me for years.

Well between that, a cow going mental outside in the field next to me, and indeed my phone vibrating all night as it's going through some sort of diagnostical problem that Vodafone have yet to come up with a solution to (surprise surprise there), I got the full twenty minutes sleep last night.

God forbid anyone who trivially annoys me in anyway for the rest of the day.

No, but it'll probably give the others ideas and before we know it they'll be knocking on every door in the country. Ah well, just another cold caller to ignore.

Not so trivial, there's a chap aged in his 50's who comes in and out of the town, he has some sort of mental health issues but seems harmless enough. When I was in the shopping centre earlier there were a bunch of teenage lads shouting smart arsed remarks at him. Dafuq is wrong with kids nowadays?

There was a shell shocked soldier from ww2 in our town when we were growing up. Local gurriers used to shout abuse at him too.
Seems to be something that some young fellas need to do to prove themselves to their peers.

I had a granduncle who was turned upside-down by an artillery shell in Gallipoli. It destroyed his nerves, and it's not terribly amusing. Any little cunnoxes I'd catch at that kind of thing would feel my boot lively. :mad:

Forced family gatherings that are purely a matter of showing your face rather than wanting to be there.

People who belittle and dismiss something you're passionate about, as if it's nothing.

So much mileage out of this thread :-)

That I don't fit in anywhere.
There's a wedding coming up this month. didn't get invited, that's grand I shouldn't expect to be.
used to be a great group of friends, they all still are, but I'm on the outside now. don't even know how it happened.

The groom to be has been hounding me for 'fun.' I've told him I wouldn't do it to her because I know her and like her,
I wouldn't do it anyway because I've actually got morals!

ah I'm annoyed that I don't fit in with girls, and I only fit in with guys cos they're looking for the ride from me.

deise08

Annoyed at myself for being annoyed when I shouldn't be annoyed.

Would you let your ex friend marry yerman knowing that he is a player?

see that's just it! I work with them both. see them every day. There's no way I would be going up to her saying oh eh by the way.
I'm not going to be shot for something I didn't/wouldn't do.

There was never going to be anything happening on my part.

What would you have done?

ah I'm annoyed that I can't get across how things are. without giving too much away.

In that sort of thing I'd leave them to it. No good comes from getting involved in other peoples relationships. A case of Not My Circus. Not My Monkeys is the best course of action when it comes to other peoples dramas. The messenger is usually the one that ends up being shot. :rolleyes:

Sounds like you need new friends, people just outgrow each other over time, for all sorts of reasons.

Are you by any chance a nicer, better-adjusted, more intelligent, more rounded person, and a much Foxier Chick bah, than any of them little wagons? Fcuk 'em, find better friends and nicer fellas.

I went down to the school today and started talking to some of the other parents at the gates, when this woman comes over and asks me what am I doing collecting the kids looking like a dogs dinner, who was I trying to impress. This particular woman is always making remarks about me and about my children. I felt like telling her to **** off. People can be so rude.

When you buy a second-hand CD in a charity shop and they don't know how to handle the disc correctly. One girl even put the CD face down on the counter.

She may well have never used one before!

This.

I run in my local park and three times a dog has ran across me and nearly tripped me up. Yet when I give out to the gormless dog owner they look all "ohhh what did I do wronggggg" look.

Thank you, kind person! Currently reading the ins and outs of that site now!

TA: I normally don't mind Spotify ads (don't have Premium) but sweet baby Jeebus, the amount of times I've heard Megan Traynor warble "All about dat bass, 'bout dat bass, no trubble!" is ridiculous.
If I hear that fecking song again, I will literally scream.

Cheers, kfallon! I live within walking distance of a drop-off point so happy days! No more "sorry we missed you" notes! Woot!

Back on topic: I have no beer. This displeases me.

Accidentally spraying so much perfume on myself that I have been sick myself from the smell all day. God knows how others around me must have felt.

eternal

Students in the shop roaring and shouting over buying a loaf of bread like it's a magnificent, spectacular historical event which will be held in the annals of time for all eternity while us mere mortals deflate in agitated woe at the incomparable non existence of our shattered selves.

The fact that the majority of teen girls all look like clones with the same hair, same crop tops and shorts, same Holister hoodies and sweat pants, same footwear. What happened to being individual?

I hate people needlessly replying to their own texts to correct spelling mistakes with a little asterisk beside it.

Fair enough if the clarification is useful but too many times it's patently obvious what the incorrectly spelt word is intended to be and does not warrant a correction!

I hate the way tall people are able to walk so damn fast while making it appear that they are walking normally, due to their bigger stride length.

Really p*sses me off when I'm jogging and someone in front of me is walking at almost the same pace as me when I'm knackered, and it feels like it takes forever for me to get past them!

TA that it was necessary for a Mod warning re inappropriate comments / jokes on the thread about the plane crash.
I just don't get how anyone could be of that mindset.

Some people have sick and cruel minds. They will sink to the lowest of levels just to get some attention.

Out walking the dog and he is off the leash and smelling everything and saying hello to other dogs, enjoying his daily hour of freedom when oul wan with manicured psycho-poodle on lead crosses our path and poodle-poms is suddenly possessed by 17 demons and yanks grannies arm off.. Making me a villianous out-law and garrulous huxster and why don't I have a lead --- BECAUSE MY DOG IS TRAINED AND KNOWS I'M THE BOSS!!! Treat your dog like a pre-Madonna and it will act like one!

Seriously????
She actually said this to you?
And you didn't respond with telling her to fukc right off with her judgemental crap about your appearance(although a well timed uppercut would have been sweet)

Jesus, and people wonder why bullying in schools is rife.......
It's not off the stones they lick it.

When you make a decision and someone completely undermines it by telling everyone to do something else.

everlast75

People who speak with such certainty/argue with you on topics as if they are infallible and then when it turns out they are wrong/you are right, they don't apologise... they usually say "oh, i was sure that was the case". Show some humility you f***er!

I cannot sleep because of this bloody plague. I'm so so tired.

I have a wedding on Friday and I'm going to look like utter shyte and probably fall asleep face down in my soup

To be fair, its under the guise of fashion, its been the case for years. Teenagers go to such lengths to be different, that they all end looking the same:D

I never cease to amazed at the level of assholiness some people will sink to.
I like a joke as much as the next person, but the likes of these "Jokes" and the "funny" comments about the likes of Madeline McCann turn my stomach.

:pac:

I'm tall, but I also don't like crowds. When I was in college, if I was walking from one particular building to another (with the 2 girls I used to hang out with) if a gang of people approached, my speed would automatically increase. I'm sure my friends we regularly trivially annoyed by this, as my normal speed wasn't exactly slow either.

Walking down a busy street, I just zoom by everybody.

Learning Irish phrases for writing an Irish essay. Two weeks to go for these exams and I'm losing the plot. The sooner they are over, the better.
