    Lists of top 10 restaurants or best places to get a sandwich / lunch etc that DON'T outline the exact street address of the establishment. How difficult is it to include such basic information?

    Bearing in mind that it's the tiny repetitive things in life that drive ppl crazy.
    Every single spoken or written communication I had with ppl today I either had to explain or repeat.

    Every.Single.One!

    I'm not good with the sun, I planned today to do a lot of small jobs away from home before it gets too hot and I can't stand being out in it, I checked the location of the most complicated job before I left the house to discover its not where I thought and no one seemed to know where it was. So I ended up badly dressed for the heat I was running about in and now my back is still sore, I have blisters and sore feet. I think I'm having menopause symptoms in my feet/knees/back/hips, instead of the normal way.

    Turning into the uni there was a vote no van parked opposite the main gate wtf,
    Went into a low-cost pharmacy on my travels and discovered a price difference of between 3-8e on things we buy all the time.

    In short TAtatata today!

    Have a few days off work so go for a pint or two in the regular haunt for the World Cup. The place does a Thursday night and fills up with young ones as the night progresses. It makes me realise that a) girls weren't as beautiful when I was that age and b) I am suddenly that older guy that gawks at them all coming in

    When people unnecessarily add music to videos of incidents, especially those involving animals. Like when you're watching a video of puppies being puppies and someone's put all this sentimental music in the background, it's like "feck off like I want to hear all the yapping" :D

    More generally I guess, when you click on a video expecting "raw footage" of something and it's been edited in this kind of way - added music, commentary, slomo, etc. Sometimes that's cool, but a lot of the time you just want to see and hear something exactly as it happened.

    This just me being an oddball?

    Agreed. I’d also like to add to this websites that autoplay music or videos.

    You probably don't pay attention to this but, do you not think they all look like clones now? Same really bold dark eyebrows, really contoured face, hair similar, dressed quite similar, same colours and styles? When I go out to a pub, which is rare, I look around and think where's the originality?

    I was woken up this morning at 4:40 and had to bring the dogs out for a wee, got back into bed and my alarm work me up at 6 and it felt like I was in another dimension.

    Finished a little baby cardi for twins due soon and one sleeve is bigger than the other ! I must have read the pattern wrong on one of them . Grrrr

    To avoid this you should knit both sleeves together on the one needle using two balls of wool. I always do sleeves and cardigan fronts this way and at least they match then. Also faster as you half the row counting and consulting the pattern.

    My friend has been going through a bit of a rough time. I've been ringing her and asking her if she'd like to meet up, letting her know that she doesn't have to go through it alone.

    Yesterday I sent a text asking her if she would sign something.
    Me: Would you mind signing blaa blaa. I'd like to get it in by blaa blaa.
    Her: I'm busy with such and such this weekend.

    Now I'm no martyr when it comes to helping others out but Jaysus. Hand on heart I would never leave a friend stuck.

    It means that people are happy enough for things to happen for the greater good, as long as it doesn't inconvenience them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 914 ✭✭✭Dramatik


    When someone is looking for something and they make that sound with their mouth ''tish..tish....tish....tish''

    What's annoying about it is that now I've started doing it too.

    It's kind of hard to explain but it usually goes like:

    Me: hey have you got that thing,

    Them: yeah, no problem I'll get it for you now

    Then as they are looking for it they will make this ''tish..tish....tish....tish'' sound.

    Them: Ahh here it is

    Me: thanks

    Different people have different sounding ones for instance some people click their tongue off the roof of their mouth. Don't why but it just annoys me.

    I did...well, my female offspring ate some of it. She actually ate most of it.
    Plus I cycled to work and shaved a few minutes off my personal best time getting in here.


    Is there such a thing as mint chocolate spread?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 77,038 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    Make your own by melting mint chocolate in the microwave, or even better over a hot mug of tea/coffee. Yes, I AM a genius.

    People who use shops as day care centers for their children.

    'now you go in there while mummy and daddy look for something next door'

    2mins later kid or kids are tearing the shop apart chasing each other around, knocking into shelves etc.

    Tiger Funny Productions are the worst for this on YouTube. They have the best animal compilation videos but I've stopped watching them because they always play some good awful fast paced piano sh!te music over it and ruins the whole thing. I've tried watching them on mute but it's no good. Why can't they let the animals be the star of the video? :confused:

    I keep hearing an ad on the radio for a musical about an interracial couple in Ireland. It's a love story between a naive young one from Kerry who falls in love with a lad in Dublin from the wrong side of the tracks :rolleyes: What's the name of this epic love story? Copper Face Jacks :rolleyes::rolleyes: Feck off with that sh!te.

    A friend of mine said about a month ago he'd send me on a few games I wanted to play

    Asked 2 weeks ago what the story was, he said he just forgot about them and would send them on

    Dunno how to ask again without sounding mean :o I be talking to him every couple days but its awkward to ask again even though I'm dying to play them

    When neighbours knock on your front door to introduce themselves and welcome you to the area. Now, this is unquestionably lovely (OK, some of the feckers are curious to see what you have but less of that cynicism) and it doesn't happen in every culture - I lived in Scandinavia in the 90s and even family members rang each other to arrange to visit; you didn't arrive unannounced - and the neighbour in question was absolutely lovely and we both talked for Ireland and knew loads of the same people (it's never a proper conversation with another Irish person unless you know at least one person mutually!). Then she left and I realised all the work I have to do that those three hours stole on me. Feck.

    I think I'll put a 'Visiting Hours for General Chitchat' timetable/sign on the front door of the house. :p

    I've decided against getting the transplant, it's too risky to justify as this isn't life threatening, just life limiting :)

    TA I ran out of spoons way too early today. With the beautiful weather and my holidays abroad approaching I really wanted to make the most of the day.

    I used my spoons well in fairness and did a good few important jobs, but not enough for what I had in mind.

    I have to stop and rest after each job, it's just a dose.


    For those who may not be familiar with the spoon theory : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoon_theory
    https://butyoudontlooksick.com/articles/written-by-christine/the-spoon-theory/

    'tis a bit American, that theory, but on days like today when my output doesn't match my expectations, it just fits.
