    My friends and I learned the hard way how the French deal with that.
    We were very merry outside a club in Paris and serenading the locals with our singing when we felt the wrath of the sleeping locals who rained a cup of water down on top of our heads.

    Just be grateful that chamber pots are no longer in fashion. :D

    I feel very not ar$ed today. And a little queasy.

    Also, I am totally in love with someone else's cat and I'm TA'd that I can't catnap him because no pets are allowed in the apartment.

    So I've been trivially annoyed by a splinter in my big toe for months. Tried twice to literally dig it out, we're talking almost surgery here and being maddened cos I couldn't find it.

    Tried again tonight cos it was sore and I GOT IT however it was a freaking hair. I've googled and hair splinters are legit things. My mind is blown.... It was like 8ish mm. Couldn't believe it.

    A friend of mine was in hospital recently to remove an ingrown hair in his lower back, he was in agony with it before being removed, could it be a similar thing? I'd never heard of it tbh, usually you can just squeeze out an ingrown or use a tweezers.

    When you're out with a group of people for a meal and some or all of the others are not "change-organised" when it comes to splitting the bill.

    Change-organised means ensuring you have a selection of notes (particularly €5s and €10s) and coins to put towards the bill and the tip.
    Instead what often happens is that people throw down €50 notes totally f**king it up.
    The easiest way to break a €50 is to buy something small in Dunnes, Tesco etc and pay via the self-service checkouts. Just takes a tiny bit of planning.

    It was on the base of my toe no hair follicles there. I'd post a pic but.... that would be weird. Was right on the push off point on my toe as well but I'd kinda just gotten used to it. So glad it's out.

    This really bugs me also, similarly someone in my family is a total stinge and if we go out for a meal he'll always take the cash from everyone and pay with his card(definitely putting in as expenses) but he always gains if someone say throws in 50e whilst the cost might be 40e and he just takes the lot, we're on to him now so refuse to let him pay by card.. Skip's his rounds also, necks wine with the meal, I could go on but mean people disgust me.

    Same thing happened my little niece when she was only a few weeks old! She had to be put under to have it removed.

    TA my apps on my phone have all switched around and I keep clicking on the wrong things and can’t remember the order they used to be in

    The thing is, I do enjoy dancing. It's dragging my ass out of the house that's the problem. :)

    This is not so trivial but junk science practitioners who could actually harm seriously ill folks boil my piss. Like, fine if they want to believe that their emotions or the way they lived their life or not eating enough broccoli caused their own cancer/motor neurone disease/MS/whatever and that fixing those things will cure them but counselling others in the same position that this is the reason for their predicament is dangerous and deeply unethical. But so many people lap it up because it’s what they want to hear. They might be able to fix themselves! No need for that medicine so. :rolleyes:

    Packets that say they are easy to open and reseal.

    I haven't had to take a train in years. Today I did and going in the morning was grand. Coming back in the afternoon was like being stuck in a smelly pub. People had tables littered with beer cans, were loud and talking sh!te and the carriage smelled like stale beer and sweat ��

    There was a grandma with her 5/6 year old grandson who had to sit at a table where an older guy who was maybe 70's, was drinking guinness and a bit merry for it, who kept trying to talk sh!te to the young lad. The grandma was trying to distract the young lad. It was uncomfortable to watch.

    Are people really not able to make a train journey at half one in the afternoon without getting p!ssed???

    Just to add before anyone thinks I'm a middle class snob, I don't have a car and when I need to go to Dublin I take the bus, which is grand but today I needed to go to Athenry and the train was the best option. Thankfully I was only on it for 20 mins.

    Men going around in torn jeans. "It's the fashion". Would you wear a jacket with holes in it?

    It's not just men. You can now buy jeans for toddlers with the "distressed" look! It's very fashionable to pay loads of money to look like you are homeless :pac:

    Clothes shops that don’t allow you to take the hanger with your purchase.

    When you spill an almost-full cuppa. Not only that. When you spill an almost-full cuppa and the mug has a bit of a belly, so that when it topples over it starts to spin, and it sends the tea/coffee shooting in every possible direction. Including up your sleeve. :mad: But wait, there's more. When all of that happens, and you're wearing slippers made of towelling material. And you're just about to go to bed. :mad:

    Not sure if it's TA but people driving cars they cannot handle.

    I was in a busy car park at lunch time today with a woman driving a large people carrier the wrong way on a one way system.

    When I told her she was going the wrong way her reply was "This is my husband's car, I can't reverse it, you'll have to reverse". I polietely (honestly) told her she shouldn't be driving something she can't reverse, her reply was "please don't make a scene in front of my children and just do it".

    I did and wouldn't have gotten aggressive or argumentative anyway but was genuinely annoyed that she thought there was nothing wrong with the situation!

    Would have kept you awake anyway NH (unless it caffeine free of course then it's just pointless) :D
