    Twitter being quoted in news stories.


    Twitter in general actually. Has anything good ever come out of it?

    I hate when I see a head line saying.
    "Furious fans call for actor to be axed/etc''

    You then read it and it basically contains two tweets.

    I just heard an ad on the radio for vegan sausage rolls. I'm not annoyed by people's choice of diet but for Christ's sake if they are vegan there is no sausage in them!

    And when they print the text of the tweet and then a picture from twitter with the exact same text.

    Rest assured that if you ever post an original opinion I'll be among the first lining up to congratulate you!

    You care enough to post and call me a communist, so I take it I've hit a nerve.

    "call you a communist" Oh dear! Would you care to link your many admirers to that never to be forgotten post where I performed that vile act?

    Do you feel you need a title to make you feel special?

    Two "feels" in one sentence; I suspect that you're an emotional chap! Whereas I operate on a more cerebral level, hence I tend to think rather than to feel!

    But, in answer to your question: no, I don't require a title to 'feel' special.

    People on their phone and driving.....come on to F**k lads

    Had some lad try to merge into my lane this morning, completely just jump in front of me where there was no space. I didnt let him in as it was simply not possible given the space and speed. He did get in behind me and when i looked in the mirror the pr1ck had his phone in his hand in front of his face like he was reading or sending a message

    Nothing wrong with using it on your CV if you worked for it but calling yourself a doctor cause you did some more college is bollox.

    Plenty of dossers make their way through college and scrape by qualifcations.

    Call me old fashioned but if I am having a heart attack and someone shouts out is there a doctor in the house, I want an MD to stand up and not an obnoxious twit who spent a bit longer in college.

    Hmmm.... Not all phds are equal. I've read some dissertations that people have gotten phds for that were a complete joke, and I do know one guy personally who always worked his ass off learning stuff off for exams, but had the problem solving skills of a dead goldfish. That said, the vast majority of the phds I know are clever, thoughtful and ethical people.

    In contrast, the main reasons I've thought of doing a phd would be to constantly say to people : "Trust me, I'm a doctor!", or : "Let me through, I'm a doctor". I have the sense of humour of a five year old....

    Only in some lame comedy is somebody who has a phd in Egyptian literature going to stand up when someone yells for a doctor in the house while someone's having a heart attack. Nobody is going to do that in real life.

    Waiting for stuff in the post.

    I'm no millennial, but I am a member of the buy-it-now-download-it-now generation. And when I do have to use snail-mail delivery I just hate those hopeful checks of the post that end in another days' wait...

    People who can't park for sh1t. I don't drive, and I can't drive but jeebus, the level of imbeciles who think they are God's gift to the road is astounding.

    One instance yesterday, someone decided to not only double park but triple park outside a take-away....sorry love you didn't park you just stopped in the middle of the road and forced drivers behind you to go on the opposite side of the road.

    There is never a traffic warden, or garda around when this shyte is going on.

    Booze websites that make you enter your date of birth to prove that you are over 18 instead of allowing you to click a yes button to confirm such.

    Because a 15 year old would never have the smarts to alter their DOB to make them appear over 18:confused::confused::confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,463 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    It's weird when supermarkets stop looking for ID also.
    You look in the mirror and you don't know is it the grey hair or are you receding.

    TA is the above post.

    I agree with the sentiments entirely, but I'm sorry - I just cannot take a complaint about driving seriously from someone who admits he can't drive.

    Most drivers on our roads are s**t, but until you prove you are better than that, Sleepy, I'm afraid you don't get to pass judgement ;)

    Why?

    Can someone not critique music unless they are an accomplished musician?
    Not criticise restaurant food unless they are a chef?

    Etc. Etc.

    Youtube's algorithm decided to recommend an 8 video minute video of a couple whose child was stillborn and he is basically lying on the bed while his parents are in tears. Didn't watch it but that's the description.

    WTF Youtube. Absolutely nothing in my viewing history would indicate I'd want to watch such as thing. Jesus Christ!

    I sincerely hope I never experience that, but if I do, filming it and uploading it to Youtube would be literally the last thing I'd want to do in that situation.
