    TA'd by other people today.

    Did the big grocery shop and I knew it would be busy but Jesus the amount of people just IN MY WAY.

    Oul'wans congregating outside Dunnes, having an oul yap, while I'm trying to steer my wonky trolley between them.

    Then I tried steering said trolley between the millions of people queuing at the tills, blocking the aisles as they did.

    TA'd that I forgot to buy petrol today and it means another trek out tomorrow.

    TA'd that I hate my doctor; he's rude and ignorant and just not very nice but I'm too lazy to change GP's because of the hassle.

    Is it time for the Christmas booze yet?

    My GP is a gentleman. I'd advise changing GPs so you can feel more comfortable. It definitely is time for the booze :D


    Tripped the switch of the shower and nearly died. The thoughts of being stinky for festivities was too much!
    I agree with the shopping. One woman spent the better half of an hour unloading her trolley, I've never seen someone move so slow in all my life. The only upside is the array of goodies on display. Anyone who likes food must love this time of year, so many treats on offer and every shelf packed.

    When people take sweets and leave the wrappers back in the box/tin.

    That's a sin.

    Websites that can't provide basic decent information on the products they're selling. Professional sites, not just ebay or the like. I was trying to buy a laptop recently.

    "Processor: Intel."

    Right, is that an i3, i5, i7?

    "Intel."

    But that's not what I-

    "Intel."

    But that's no-

    "Intel."

    Or "Graphics: Yes."

    And there's some weird model number that's not what the maker uses so when I Google to find more information it takes me back to the same page. If there is even a model number.

    I had these old slippers from Lidl that were the bees knees but I thought 'out with the old' and chucked them. So I have these new ones from Penney's but they are too small and my socked foot is leaning out the back of them and when I go out on the wet ground the back heel of the slipper and foot get wet. That never happened with the old ones. Another excuse to buy more I suppose.

    My oven has packed up. No mince pies, no roast spuds. It'll be boiled everything for Christmas dinner, then go buy a new oven.

    TA that the thread title has changed from trivial to trifling. Is that supposed to be 'festive' ? I am deeply offended and will possibly hunt you down and eat your liver with some nice chianti.

    I'm a trifle bit annoyed that I didn't notice until you pointed it out.....also annoyed that I don't know how to use it in a sentence :/


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,819 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    Surreptitious, always buy slippers a size or two bigger than your own size..

    I'm TA'd by the thought of cooking the Christmas dinner on Sunday. Ugh.

    I have eaten so many chocolates I feel sick.
    Candles that don't burn out to the edge of the jar.
    Speaking of trifle, I decided today I had to have one and everywhere was out of them. How very trifly annoying :(

    That cnuting dog ears filter on snapchat that girls use because they think it makes them look cute. It doesn't.

    Stretch denim, it's everywhere.

    my dad bumped off the oven and turned the temperature to over 200 degrees, dundee cake started to turn into coal so he turned on the extractor fan.

    house is filled with smoke. Mother comes home (from being out for less than 15 minutes).

    what happened?

    I turned on the extractor fan for the smoke.

    why didn't you take it out of the oven or turn it down from over 200

    oh. sure look can't you just scrape the black off

    a masterclass in how not to react to making **** of a dundee cake

    Now there's no dundee cake

    Come on now, you can roast potatoes in the toaster.

    I just bought the one in the box but I'd love a big bowl of homemade trifle with loads of cream right now.

    I also just bought those Dunnes frozen mini eclairs and took 3 out of the box before putting them in the freezer...I've bitten both edges off one but the centre is still frozen and now I don't want them anyway.The house is full of food but I want something else and don't know what it is..

    Now you're talking who doesn't love toasted spuds.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭madmaggie


    toast potatoes
    Thanks for that, it would make a memorable dinner!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,220 ✭✭✭bonzodog2

    Well, you can make a decent approximation in a deepfat fryer

    Huge Xmas queues, I avoid like the plague!

    Mam wanted to go into Aldi this afternoon just to buy 24 eggs!!!

    I said it will be mental I'll buy them in local shop for you- I did

    She was going mad they were €1 dearer, even though I bought them...

    When people tell you they 'did' somewhere. ''Ya, we did the West Coast, did San Fran, did Vegas and ....''

    Fcuk off. Unless you're name is Debbie and you were in the general Texas area, you can't pull this sh*t.
