Reports on Cricket in the sports news. For the 6 people in the country who follow it.

Mine is somewhat related - those pointless radio bulletins that tell you the latest vicissitudes of the stock markets and currency exchanges, a whole five minutes before this news is again completely redundant.

What is it for?

Everyone has the Internet (even you, Donegal).

It is the most unnecessary waste of time that is expended by the national media, with the possible exception of Dan O'brien.

It's funny how the Irish hate cricket for being too English and yet we have Rugby and Soccer and they are okay....

I don't think it is because it is too English. More likely it's because it is a rubbish sport.

Spent over €120 in Supervalue last night but did not get milk and now....I need milk.

Wife invited someone to do an activity with her last weekend. Non committal response. Followed up on Thursday - no response. We make alternative plans and an hour before activity the person decided they now want to do it.

Sorry but No.

How about this somebody says they'll like to go to an event. Your offer to bring them.
You arrive at there house and they aren't ready first they need to do a quick tidy up of the house and paint some skirting boards and have a cup of tea.
Then you arrive at the event and they announce of we have yo leave early to buy dog food.

Such a rubbish sport that the entire commonwealth is obsessed with it.

Hate is a bit over board! Most people just don't give a sh*t!

The reason soccer and rugby are liked/loved is because we play them? Simple enough concept? I am sure the tiny minority of Irish people who play cricket like cricket also, much like Irish people who don't like soccer/rugby couldn't give a sh*t about them either!

Basic human psychology !

Really? Where did anyone say that?


Personally I don't hate it and even with understanding the rules I just find it as boring as fcuk and just does not interest me.

Blimey, you're a better woman (or man) than I am. Unless they're beloved and/or eccentric/ elderly/insert reasonable excuse, I'd have taken off. Did you get to enjoy the event at all?

My only ta is a stubborn headache

ok, and when I somehow type half my comment in the other person's quoted bit

And that there's alcohol in sunscreen so it's probably not good for your skin ...oh my god, my TA's are breeding

I'm a man.
It was fine.
She's always a bit scatty and all over the place.
She'd do anything for you and would give you anything.
Just expect her to be late and a tad all over the place.

It might not be a good idea for that to be resealable RL.

:P

TA at my wacky sense of humour.

Depends of the circumstances. Not always the best place to be making non PC comments in work, thankfully most within earshot are non followers of that line of thinking.

That and 'easy peel' packaging that proves almost impossible to open.

You know when you feel a strong pull to be somewhere or with someone but you don't know where or who or why?

Not town , not a party, nothing I can put my finger on.

I did want a quiet, safe night but now it's like ants in my bloodstream. I'm supposed to be somewhere else . It's almost spooky . Definitely annoying .

Also when tubes (eg. tomato puree, watercolours, hair dye, whatever ) burst at the seam and you can't squeeze the contents out the top because it comes out in an irritating spiral from the burst part. I'm always careful and I have a tube key but the metal is just weak and prone to rupture .

That one person that always has a poxy question at the end of a meeting/telecall ... when someone asks are there any questions, it should be met with deathly silence only. Always.
Only is there always ‘Susan’ down the back who wants something explained again because she has an example of when some random event happened to her and we all have to hear about it, after already sitting like fcuk wits for two hours listening to crap.. deathly silence should then be replaced with deathly stares always.

Fcuk you Susan!

Abroad right now, and annoyed at the numbers of locals and tourists (esp young Europeans) smoke compared to at home.
Can't eat out or have a drink without fcuking drifting smoke everywhere.

Badly Drunk Boy

I had a sort of a stream of consciousness trivial annoyance experience yesterday as I sat in the passenger seat of a car in a shopping centre car park, waiting for a family member to return from buying nothing.

There were loads of spaces in the car park, but it annoyed me that a jeep-thing in front of me was parked with its back left-hand wheel in 4 different parking spots. Just then, the driver arrived and I noticed that his vehicle was a Peugeot.

Then, it suddenly annoyed me that English people usually insert an 'r' sound into the name 'Peugeot'.

Then I was thinking about how they often leave out the 'r' sound loads of times when there is an 'r'. (Yeah, I know about rhotic/non-rhotic pronunciations.)

And then I remembered about Irish comedian Aisling Bea on 8 Out Of 10 Cats last week, as she was about to say something, paused to say something to the effect of "I know I'm about to give ye ammunition to use the 'turty tree and a turd' thing against the Irish person".

Sort yerselves about before slagging us about our lack of 'th' pronounciations!

And all beause of that bad parka parker...:pac:

I didn't buy any crisps yesterday because I had eaten too many cakes over the last week.
now all I can think about, and want are crisps:mad:
