That will do it.;)

My Mam does the opposite

"Oh no my son looks after all the internet stuff here"
"Can I talk to him?"
"No he doesn't live here"

Salesman leaves looking very confused.

Friends forcing kids on you. F**k off, I wanted to see you, not have you dragging your kids along without telling me. Shouldn't my lack of kids and interest in same, be a clue to you? Pisses me off the way some people try to force you to love their kids.

Same just substitute other half for "kids"

One last TA for today; people who eat soup and their tongue comes out to meet the spoon before the spoon even enters their mouth.. And people who pick their teeth publicly.. Eww

TA that in my sleepy haze this morning I washed my hair with shower gel and put on an un-ironed shirt. I look like Worzel Gummidge (look him up kids).

You think that's bad. I once sprayed flippen WD40 under my arms one very cold dark hungover winter morning. That woke me up anyway. Why I had a can of WD40 beside my bed in the first place is a different story.

Since when is than an American term? Not trying to be snarky, I've just never thought of it as such or noticed it as a thing Americans say.

Am minding my seven year old niece today and she's going through a phase of telling jokes every two seconds. She keeps asking me to tell her some, how many jokes have I been told down over the years and I can't remember one! Literally none! Had to google some but they were mostly inappropriate lol

My nephew is the same - I got him a massive joke book a few weeks ago, found it upstairs in TK MAX was only €8.99 , over 1,000 jokes in it. He loved it!! his parents not so much..........;)

I opened windows and doors yesterday, to get a very annoying kamikaze Blue Bottle out.

The Blue Bottle had the good sense to oblige me and leave.

I close all the windows and doors.

And I end up with three Blue Bottles inside. :mad:

That first blue bottle was only keeping you busy while the other 3 took your house keys and made a copy

People who live off others making themselves out to be the victims eg the McCanns and Steven O'Riordan. Not so trivial I suppose.

Annoyed that I got into a tug of war over the shared curtain on the bus this morning with a man in his late 60's.:mad: He got on at the stop after mine and pulled my curtain, which I'd clearly positioned to shut out the sun directly burning my face. He yanked it forward, so I pulled some back. This continued for about 20 minutes before I called him Buddy and pointed out that it was a shared curtain.

His response was to mutter something and yank it forward, buttoning it on the catch, my response was to yank it back and hold it against the window with my elbow for the rest of the journey so he couldn't steal the whole curtain. FFS, I did not need this as part of my 4 hour round trip for a 10 minute outpatient appointment.

Ripped jeans! So hard to find a pair of jeans in the shops that don't have ripped knees in them. Decided to take the plunge last week and bought a pair. Putting them on this morning I put my foot through the knee hole instead of the foot hole and now they're ripped the whole way down maybe I could start a new trend?

Sorry anna, I laughed, because that was my exact thought, as I was reading your post that you could start a new trend.

Errands ? We used to "go and get a few messages"!:p

The "High St" or "High St stores" are phrases which came from the UK I think but now seems to be used here. :mad:

There has been a high street in Sligo since at least the early 1800's...so it came over here a long long time ago!

I brushed my teeth once with moisturiser. The tubes were similar, and I took the wrong one out of my toilet bag. It was a fragrance free cream, so at least it was tasteless.
It was a WTF moment though.

I always thought calling them "messages" was nonsense. At least "errands" isn't a word that already had a meaning and just got crammed into a new one where it wasn't needed.

As for words coming over from the UK I agree. In fact it seems like an entire language worth of them sometimes.

Anyway, it's not worth getting worked up over. It is what it is and trying to change things would be a fool's message.

I can't stomach the smell of BBQ smoke. It used to be just one neighbour who had one. They BBQ a lot , from Spring onwards. But now two more neighbours got them and there's 3 of them, all next to each other in the terrace BBQing and the smoke blows into our back garden. I had to close our back door(not a euphemism) earlier when I was cooking. Bloody awful smell and I couldn't put any washing out.

The best way to do it is squeeze the Capri Sun so it bulges at the top, push the straw in with your thumb over the top of it to avoid being squirted. It took me many years to realise this

People who make nasty comments about how you live your life.

When I start to comment on your way of living then you can have permission to discuss mine but not until then. And just because you are doing all the right things doesn't make you a good person, especially if you act like a b****.

Sorry just had to rant.

1.
People on Aer Lingus flights with their boarding cards on their phone, and the 5 minutes it takes them to get past ticket check because the screen keeps switching from landscape to portrait mode, and the barcode is too small, and the Aer Lingus guy checking tickets is 'lost with all this technology!!'

They do give out free boarding cards you know?? Nobody cares that you have an iPhone!!

2.
The fact that my 6:30am flight to Manchester this morning (which is usually fairly quiet), seems to be full to the gills with families jetting off somewhere fancy (via Manchester!!), we're even flying on an A321 today which I've never flown to Manchester on!! That's how busy it is!!!

3.
The fact I have to fly to England today, which I absolutely couldn't be aršëd with!!

4.
The fact that my return flight today is the later flight and not the usual one I get in the afternoon that's gets me back to my house at 5pm.
