Trivial Things That Annoy You — Rules in Post #1

Robsweezie

a petty one that didn't bother me that much, but i ordered a dominoes the other week and the guy taking the order was talking too fast, like he was rushing me along to reach a target for quick service (which makes sense)......flustered me.

my nails get dirty a lot, and then I give myself spots from touching my face. bought one of those nail scrubbers to sort it out.

when you enter details incorrectly several times online and dont spot your mistake :0

I hate when I have put my shopping on the belt at the checkout and go to stack my basket at the till but the last person has left their basket back with one of the handles flapped over. I can't just slot mine in easily but have to be faffing around with the top baskets handles.
Not bothering to look at the guide yoke in with a box of chocolates and nearly breaking my teeth on a hard toffee one assuming it is going to be soft.

Tundry.

Their tweets are full of annoying txtspk, but I think tundry is a new low.

Is there a translate option

Mad for tea and biscuits, but have to fast for having bloods done in the morning.

No, but it's inspired me to write it in poem form:

It's a cold, clear night. Tell all and sundry!
Scattered heavy showers, some of them tundry.

They should give me a job instead of that eejit

Got a new car last week.
Went to fill it this morning and the garage was quite busy so got a pump at the end, it was a prepay pump. FFS. I went in and said I'd like to fill my car, he said how much, I said I don't know, it's a new car and I've never filled it, he said pick a number so. FFS

Haha true! In my defence, I thought they'd just have an open ended transaction or something.

I had no time at all to eat this morning, had to bring one child to appointments, back to school and then shopping. I was actually fit to murder with the hunger and couldn't wait to get home to eat. Seconds into eating my sense of taste completely disappears. Damn you to hell and back, headcold

Taking a day off work to help someone else and being told 15 minutes before I'm due to meet them that it's been cancelled and can I do tomorrow instead?

Sciatica. My back twisted this morning while I was cleaning my teeth. I could barely stand and shovelled two solphodine and a difene into my face. I'm wearing the flattest pair of high heels I own but am naturally walking to the side, and I look like I can't manage a flat pair of high heels. People who wear heels and can't walk in them anger me so today I'm angering myself.

I've been letting my brows grow out since September to go at them and completely reshape them and move my arch. Today I realised it's at stage where I can't even fill them in to give them any sort of shape anymore but they haven't grown enough to be able to move the arch.
GrouchoMarxOnRale is what I'll have to change my name to.

I'm eating a bag of M&M's one by one.
I despise myself for not shovelling them all into my fat face at once.

One by one. Why am I even doing this?

Couriers.

You give them detailed indications on how to get to your place. You tell them what to input on their GPS because 99.9% of the time they input something slightly different and end up in a boreen in the middle of fields, and you explain this to them. You see them driving by without stopping, and you wave at them to signal them to stop.

Guess what happens next.

And then they have the gall to complain about the fact that they couldn't find you, and ended up miles along a boreen despite having input the 'correct' address into their GPS. :mad:

Last year I had a huge fight with one of the only people that's been my friend when I've been both okay and absolutely nuttier than a box of Squirrelsh1t.
It was Valentine's Day and I was still stocious drunk from going for "one drink" the night before. We were both horrible and I told him I never ever would speak to him again. Now, I'm fiery. I'll go mad for about 10 minutes, pure fury, but then it's over and done with and i snap back to myself. And any other time I told him go **** himself, I'd give in after a few months and email him to see how he was. "Are you still alive? Just so you know this email wasn't sent with love" kinda thing but it would break the ice.

This time though, i stuck to my guns and I never gave in once. You'd be blue in the face waiting for an apology from him though so I had understood that we would never ever speak again, and i was okay with that.

Anyway, Checked my email there now. Who's mailed me? Him.
No apology but "it's been almost a year. I probably won't hear back from you but it's been almost a year since we chatted. How are you? I'm taking a middle of the night, half sleeping dump and you popped into my head. I hope you're alright".

Now for the TAs.
1. Do you think I could play it cool? Nope. I emailed him back as soon as I read it.
2. Do you think i could be a normal person? Nope. First line was "so it took you a whole year to take your head out of your ass??"
3. I'm thrilled and keep telling myself to stop being happy I've nothing to be happy about, he has no right to decide we can be friends again and me there like a little lap dog delighted with myself.

A whole year of progress of not missing my friend and he's gone and ruined it and I couldn't even be civil

You're eating something new / yummy, and someone with you goes 'oh, is that nice?'

Of course it is!! Look at me eating it!! I like it!! nyom nyom!
Is it nice to you? Well, that's subjective and you'll only know by trying some... and by asking 'is that nice?' you clearly want me to offer you some without you coming out straight with 'oh, gimme a bit!'.

madmaggie

Eircode. Am I the only fecking eejit in the country who uses it when ordering stuff. Of course it's ignored, and the delivery person still phones me.

I got a papercut when I scrunched up a sheet. :( Reason for scrunching up said sheet in such in-considerate haste is due to people not getting back to me. :rolleyes: Another t.a.

I reckon a papercut is up there with the best, toothache and childbirth. :mad:

TA'd that I appear to have accidentally rang my dentist at almost midnight last night , not once but TWICE! Worse is , she seems to have answered both times and I'm morto to think what I was doing or saying at the time ! I thought about texting her this morn to explain but I'm more of the ignore ignore ignore / pretend it didn't happen kinda person.

Retail one

some people try to bring their dog (not a guide dog) or bike into the store, I tell them they can lock them on the bike stand outside provided for them and they get the hump when theyre told to put them outside

Having a headcold during my mocks My body has betrayed me

Ah to be back there again. Make sure and have a Sugary drink on hand, non fizzy in case it lands all over your paper during the real thing. Massive boost I found during the 3:20 English or Geography exam. Also wear a watch, eyes get blurry focusing for so long on the paper inches from your face. No point in looking at the clock at the top of the room.

On that point this really annoyed me, the LC is marked on a curve so so many A's, B's etc, more time only means the "standard" gets pushed up. It doesn't give the B student more time to get an A as the A's are writing more and so on down the line.

TA that I read the above as
"wear an eye patch"

and it wasn't the case.
