Yes that's it. Take the piss. I'm a nothing.

You're not nothing, you were annoyed by someone else's lack of ability at the till, then someone skipped the q just because of who they were, without a word of explanation, I fully understand how you feel invisible. But you're not invisible, I hope you feeling more relaxed today.

People posting questions on Facebook when Google could easily give them the answer.

Eg can anyone tell me of places in Cork that hire suits for a wedding?

Ffs just Google it!!

I just saw one "can anyone tell me the best place to park in the hospital? Have a feeling I'll be there a while". Que all the "omg what's wrong xxx". "Just messaged you now Hun"
I had a good mind to write "try the car park".

Those ''anyone know'' local fb groups are handy if business websites look like they're never updated but there is some silly stuff asked on them. My TA is the local free cycle groups. I'm no grammar nazi but people keep giving away things like chest of draws and double matterses, baby girl cloths etc and asking for items that people have posted a photo of and clearly stated they are looking for.

Tripped over the dishwasher door when it was opened and almost impaled myself on the cutlery basket.
Wouldn't mind only I warned the kids to be careful as it waa open and I was unloading it.

When an author releases a new anthology of short stories featuring the characters of their main series that you're following and awaiting the new installment of, but the anthology only has two new stories, all the other five stories are in her previous short story collection. Just make the two new ones longer and leave out the old stories instead of charging us twice for the same material!

There's a man on the plane who is on his fifth quarter bottle of wine.

He's been given dinner and snacks and 5 wines and not once has he said please or thank you to the staff.

Being misunderstood and when defending or explaining myself, being misunderstood even more. Some people take a difference of opinion too personally.

And Ta that I don't get what doxxing is but you can't ask without sounding like you want to know how to do it yourself..

People screwing with my head. Had a fight with a friend last Feb (2016). It was a long time coming, it wasn't even a proper fight, inhad become fed up telling him what he was doing was hurting my feelings so I cut him off. In Feb this year i heard from him again like nothing was wrong, but although I'm over the friendship I was a little bit happy to hear from him but told him in no uncertain terms I'm done with this nothing ever changes, haven't thought about you in a year, bit late with making an effort. Didn't hear anything back and finally got to the stage where I could check my mails without worrying there would be a reply from him. Then I woke up yesterday morning to a weird voicemail on my phone from him at 3:30.

Stop messing with me. The time to fix that was 2015, or 2016. Not now. I've been sad and I'm over it so stop with the random attempts to contact me.

A private message from a lady who befriended me today on Facebook. We have a mutual friend I've thought of as a nice person. ''I've been told by X that I can't be your friend''. I sh1t you not. X is in her thirties. I will be avoiding X like the bloody plague in real life and Facbook.

And I was cr***ing on about how wonderful X is earlier.

I thought it was a Boards thing or I'd have Googled it! And I thought what doxxing is, was called Phishing.

This happens to me EVERY time I go anywhere. I sympathise.



My grievance is such: there was a relatively normal looking woman on the street basically screaming abuse at the top of her lungs, screaming about racism and all this crazy stuff even though she's a local. She was obviously off her complete face but it's disgusting to see a woman degrade herself in public and in daylight. She stared me down then when I looked at her. In all absolute fairness, who could ignore her? Why does she have to be screaming and upsetting the peace. No call for that behaviour.

First world problem; have wanted two particular dresses from H&M for ages but they haven't had them in my size anywhere and weren't online for ages. Even tried two H&Ms abroad and only size 20s left. So eventually they had them on the UK site and I got them through parcel motel but I ordered a UK size bigger than normal (but same EU size) because I heard a girl (staff) in H&M telling a customer that their sizes were a size smaller than other stores.

-.-

They're huge and now I've to try and return them to UK site. Fcuk a duck.

The persistent extent to which event / gig organizers and hosts here in Ireland can get away with doing a cr@ppie quality function or event no matter what sort of a bad taste it leaves with the audience or attendees.

I have a cold sore. I've never had one before. My boyfriend gets them but I have never caught them from him. It's super annoying and I want to know how I managed to get one.

My parents always told me you get them from kissing bold girls.
Anything to confess?

Widdershins

Very Ta. Parents who expect everyone else to adore their child as much as they do. Even expecting others to think your child is cute and to have as much patience as you do isn't fair imo. Is it unreasonable that a woman, a mother out with her own child, might not appreciate someone else's child coming over, laying its head in her lap, stroking her arm and leg and possibly drooling or getting melted chocolate on her clothes? Some people don't like personal space being invaded or being grabbed, however harmlessly. The mum of the child in question thinks the other mum got up and walked away because the child is mixed race. She can't grasp that someone would be uncomfortable with it. Not the child's fault but surely they need to learn about respecting personal space?

Surreptitious

Why are other people so confident yet I struggle? Things can be very unfair sometimes.

Sitting here with a vodka and orange and after a few sips, I'm thinking "I think this vodka is gone off".
It tasted bloody horrible.
Threw it down the sink.
Told other half. He said "That wasn't vodka you had. That was poitin I put into the empty Smirnoff bottle."
My Christ, it was AWFUL!

Hospital refusing to speak to my sib(the patient) about their treatment and follow up, because of a provisional diagnosis of dementia, leading to them leaving without the follow up info they need, neither will hosp speak with them on the phone with info.

Scan results back and they told to carry on as normal until condition progresses. Beyond disgusted that they were closed out of decisions on their health because of this thinking.

I have a 46 year old friend with Dementia currently being 'held' against his will in 'St.Clabberts' as he calls it. It's for his own good in a way (he has gone missing a few times and has a communicable disease that needs strict medication too) but it stresses me out that he can't have any input into his own treatment. I know they're not really similar situations but I kind of understand the frustration.

My TA I already mentioned a real life friend told her friend he couldn't be friends with me on FB so he said if I befriended him instead that might pacify her. Now she's told him he has to block me. I'm really annoyed at her lording it over people and getting away with it.

Sister in law being completely selfish but I cannot call her on it, yet.When i do it will probably not sound half as good as it does in my head and I will look like a wagon! :mad:

Won an iphone 6 on Saturday (yay!) which replaced my 5C.
But now when I open boards there's a gap after the three tabs at the top, and it's hurting my occasional OCD.
