    When you go on your break and someone is eating a big bag of crisps...stuffing them into their mouth and then licking their fingers individually ..turned my stomach and I couldn't eat my food and it's still making me feel sick when I think about it.

    Ta that i would give my right arm for a pack of crisps right now .!

    People who make everything into a drama or a crisis. It's turning colder with a risk of light snow and it's "and I have to take the cat to the vet down that treacherous road with all the icy hills and me with this awful flu......". Fair enough if it's all true but it's the same old sob story every time you talk to them. Probably starved of attention but it just makes you more determined to keep contact to a minimum.

    I chipped a tooth over Christmas. It wasn't hurting so I thought "I'll deal with it in the new year". Sure enough, I was lazy about getting to a dentist. In the last 24 hours it has started hurting like hell. I'm in work and I have 4 more hours until my dentist appointment. Life is pain. I have nobody to blame but myself.

    The offending tooth is gone. Now I'm annoyed because I thought when I left the dentist it would all be over, but the cure is worse than the disease. No coffee for 24 hours!! :eek:

    You've met my family..... :D

    My trivial annoyance, why parents of little people can't just say how old they are properly.. i.e. oh little Johnny is 26 months old or little Mary is 13 months.. Arrgh just really annoys me.

    Work in retail so here's a few

    People who get bothered by the charge of the plastic bags...its over ten years now ffs
    People who come in the last couple of minutes, you tell them your closing in next few minutes and take forever to pick something
    People who whinge why cant I reduce any further prices
    People who make the lame joke when your coming out of the store room that "I had the whole store to myself, I could've robbed ya blind" so not funny
    People who keep notes/money in their socks/shoes
    Women who enter the stores in pyjamas
    People who tell me their life story/how was your day - ive stuff to be doing and honestly I don't care and theres a line forming who want to be served
    Seriously??

    I had a brekkie and a fruity smoothy this morning so am stuffed. But of course there is a thing in work and there are loads of cakes.

    I want to eat all the cakes. It's phyiscally impossible.

    Drives me mental too. I can understand up to say 18 months but this 24 month business? 2. Your child is 2.

    TA'd at a certain colleague in the office who never attempts to stifle her sneezes, letting it out with full force and giving me a fright every time.

    I'm afraid I'm one of those. But, blocking your sneezes can be bad for you.

    I had a shower this morning and walked down the town to do a few bits and was p1ssing sweat by the time I got home:(

    Edit: I remembered laydeez don't sweat. I perspired profusely ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 249 ✭✭Frigating


    New housemate won't take their stuff out of the washing machine even though it's been there since Saturday, and I've hardly spoken to them so I'll sound like a b!tch if I say it to them now


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,627 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    It wrecks my head when people can't get names right. The girl I work with can't say the name of a very regular supplier, and it isn't down to a speech impediment. Radionics is pronounced as Radio-onics. Sodexo is Sodesco.

    There are two other companies we deal with which have relatively similar names, yet the two engineers who deal with them most can't say either of their names correctly. Nordson and Norgren are the companies, yet they're referred to as Norson, Norgan and a few other variations.

    So yeah, trivial things that annoy me...

    My hair. I have lots of it, but it's baby fine. Extremely flyaway. So when I go to work I'll tie it up or put it in plaits, a rake of Bobby pins and by 11am I'll look in the mirror and I look like I climbed out of bed, hair coming down, hair touseled, and generally unkempt. How I long for thick hair that won't slide out of a hairtie a pin or a plait

    This logo annoys me. I'm itching to add a full stop.

    Well played Boom.

    (Also, when did they reintroduce embedded images in AH?)

    That doesn't bother me so much - since it's left of centre I assumed you were just using it to illustrate the left-wing bias of Boards mods, yeah? :pac:

    I'm after tearing a bin bag off the roll and the perforations didn't do their thing, so I tore a huge hole in the bag. :mad:

    My boobs are too big. Why anyone would get surgery to have bigger breasts astounds me. They're better off being small and manageable.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    The canteen in work blatantly giving men bigger portions than women.

    Aaaaaaaand here come the PM's...... :pac:

    TA'd that this day is dragging on and on and on and on (you get the picture)


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,347 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    The one day when you slightly oversleep on your day off, so skip the shower and breakfast till after you picked up the shopping and ran a few errands in town........

    .....and you meet half your neighbourhood on your travels desperate to chat.

    When somebody finally says something that you've always felt like the only person in the world who thinks it.....but it loses all credibility when the person who is saying it is Donald Trump being a petulant child

    Like when he said Merly Streep is a 5hite actress!

    I've been on this for months, was literally taken some as I read this and I never knew. I'm in shock right now.
