    I'll be TA'd if the last two posts become a recurring theme of this thread and it's back and forths. It's meant to be light. There's about 4 threads on the front page of AH about the election as it is. Let us whinge about Audi drivers and change not being placed in your hand.

    TA'd at myself I dropped my iphone and broke the glass covering the screen now the blasted thing won't work at all

    TA I had a visitation last night in my dreams from Trump where I found him madly attractive and my dream crossed some lines I shall never speak of...and then woke up to find he will be President :(:(

    TA'd when I show courtesy to another driver by letting them out of a side road or letting them move into my lane in front of me and they don't even bother to acknowledge it.

    Fella rings looking for payment of something that's nothing to do with our company. I know who he's meant to be ringing so I give them the name and number. The reply: "I'm just looking to get fúcking paid". You're welcome :mad::mad:

    Got a new mouse for the computer here at home, it's a wee bit smaller than what I'm used to. My hand is cramping up using it. The bastard.

    There's a computer mouse out in the shed somewhere from my long gone Dell desktop. I don't know if it would be any use, but PM your address and I'll throw it in the post :)

    Guys in my office are getting all wet over some upcoming martial arts fight involving an Irish guy named McGregor. TA-ed that they don't seem to get how homoerotic the whole notion is, watching sweaty guys knocking the s#!t out of each other. Boxing not sufficiently bloody for you guys, eh?

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    They make it very difficult. Harder even than cancelling a sky subscription.

    I Hire a driver to move stuff to a new flat,
    he just looks at google maps ,
    puts in adress,
    We could have got their 10 minutes earlier by going a more direct route ,say you are going to finglas from city centre , theres no need to go to santry ,first , just go direct to finglas via the motorway .
    The route he went makes no sense, he gets paid 30 euro ,set rate for the job
    no point in taking a long route .

    I had a barney with a taxi driver the other night, going from the airport to Finglas. He wanted to go out to the M1, then M50 and get off at Finglas.
    I told him to go up the sideof the airport as it was a more direct route and less ground to cover and quicker.

    He was first annoyed because he got only a short fare, and secondly because he didn't get to make it a better fare for himself.
    Then he done the thing when giving the change, he gave the note first and took an age hoping getting the coins hoping I would say 'it's grand'. Fook him, I even made sure to count the change in an obvious manner in the car.

    Lazy editorial and mis-use of verbs drives me demented. So, for example when you want to quote someone, it is something he "said". But we see so much of the following:

    "It is what I have always dreamed of", he smiled.

    "It's a dream come true", he beamed.

    Smiling and beaming are not speaking verbs you fúcktard.

    +1.
    Conor McGregor has a face I'd love to punch.

    (I wouldn't stand a chance if he retaliated though but the mere sight of him is a TA to me!)

    Buying something in a shop, put my hand out to get the change and the cashier puts in on the counter instead. Seriously?

    You see them in Reardens, they walk around looking the females up and down like some kind of wildlife park. Over 40 overweight, pig ugly and slurping innocuously from main stream pints of lager ogling until they find a 20 something year old drunk enough to listen to their warbled excuse for a chat up line.
