Could be worse , they could have said 'I would of been' !

I would of being.

Widdershins

How people act when under pressure says everything about them.
I dont care how stressful the situation is, no excuse for ignorance and bad manners.
TA Had to distance myself from someone who turned out to be a parasite, and disassociate from another who showed an ugly streak.

Guy:Incognito

Threads in the wrong place.

"my thread about movies is in AH cos it'll get more views" isn't a ****ing excuse. The whole point of separate forums is to keep order.

Guy:Incognito

Oh and been instead of being.

WTF is wrong with people.

bonny!

After a few years living here, my accent is changing.

I cant do the local accent on demand as an impression but lately I noticed I can only say "how" and ow words in that accent

Ruby Ring

Leaving the shopping list at home.

The phrase "I myself" grates on me.

Also "I would have been" in relation to something which happened in the past.

I don't know why .

Argh! Yes :mad: Often used in lazy journalism when local villagers are talking about someone who has died. They can't just say, "he was a great man" or "he worked at X,Y,Z" - it's always "he would have been a great man. He would have worked at X,Y, Z".

Also, the canonisation of dead people who were involved in GAA/ known in the area/ business people in the village etc.

"He would have been well known in the local GAA club. He would have been a great man. His family would have been very well respected business owners". :(:( What in the bleedin hell difference does it matter.

Oh and the community is always "tight knit and shocked and rallying around" the survivors.

That would have been a massive TA so it would. :P

Well it was in a “residential area”😂

NewbridgeIR

The use of "would have" is a rural thing. Very annoying.

People not knowing when to use I, me or myself is another bugbear.

The Princess Bride

People using gloves and masks incorrectly. Does my head in.

If you keep the same gloves on all day, they're useless.
And if you touch your face and your mask with your gloved hands, you're potentially contaminating everywhere.
Just leave the gloves and masks to those who need to wear PPE. Keep washing your hands properly instead, and use sanitiser in between times.

Common sense is instinct,* enough of it is genius.
Apparently.

Poor Seph is going to wonder why his profile got so many visits! :pac:

TA Disrupted sleep pattern and missing meeting people.

! Warning! Completely unique annoyance here. !May shock!


Annoyed at this f*cking virus. I was having a good enough day but now just hit with total annoyance and sadness. I just want to see my family. I want to see my partners family too. It's my partners Dad's birthday tomorrow (or technically today) and it just sucks that we can't see him. I miss all the nieces and nephews. I miss my Granny.

I'm so lucky I live with my partner and our five animals. My heart goes out to anyone quarantined alone.






Also I'm outta milk.

freshpopcorn

One thing I do find a little annoying lately is if somebody says they miss meeting people, going somewhere, buying something, etc in just a casual way and somebody jumps down there throat with a big long rant telling them to get over themselves.

TA that I have never heard the word chibi in my life and I haven't a clue what that post means. TA when banter goes on between posters and I dont know what it means! Makes me feel left out as if this Coronavirus isn't enough.

Glad to hear people (glad is the wrong word) are also feeling ****e about it. At least I know I'm not losing my mind.
I am alone, both daughters and my little 10 month old granddaughter live abroad. Whatsapp is ok but its just not cutting it lately, and this could on for a long time.
Huge sense of loss is how I would describe this.

Sephiroth_dude

Waking up with a headache and waking up 2 hours after you go to sleep but feels like you've been asleep way longer.

Rubberlegs

Very trivial in the light of current circumstances but it feels rude to me to be giving people a wide berth. Its like I think they are going to think I think they smell.
TA too many 'thinks' in that sentence.

Avoid the Today FM thread on the radio forum, so. Mairead Ronan mentioned being down yesterday cos she couldn't see her 81-y-o da, and they're ripping her a new one. :rolleyes:

Overhear in the q outside a larger Tesco in Dublin some lady aloud on the phone: "ya ya, today is my first day out....my very first day....ye ye....oh it's my first day".....

castletownman

I tell ya what.

I would murder a pint.

Saw some dude yesterday with a mask that looked like something a carpenter would wear, and gloves... ..with his phone in his hand. I bet he cleansed his phone after taking off his gloves.... :rolleyes:

CrowdedHouse

Quick visit to supermarket for essentials and people TA'd me

Maybe it's just me but I don't think this is the time to be browsing the wares at the supermarket, know what you want, load up, pay and get out. They're probably one of the more dangerous places at the moment.

Feck this virus!

Yup. I do a mental browse of the shop before we leave, and write a list. As soon as we get in, it's like an Olympic sport/ military exercise and we just get in and get out

My TA today is that OH doesn't seem to realise that bills etc. cost money. I spent over €200 paying a utility bill and another €80 on coal etc. Despite me casually mentioning it several times, he hasn't offered to chip in. He isn't normally mean, I think he just genuinely hasn't thought about it, but I'm frantically clearing down debt before baby arrives (TH should be completely debt free in 6 weeks!) and there isn't that much left until next payday.

TA I will look like a money grabber if I say it to him, and would also find it quite demeaning...but why can't he just take a hint?!

The Crazy Cat Lady

this virus thing, I want my life back to normal

Bredabe

Brings dog out for 3 walks to an open green area, five minutes from the house.
Dog gets restless in the evenings, man complains that the walks the dog is on are boring.
Rince and repeat.

Bredabe

Flip this notion of a 30 minute exercise routine EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Bredabe

Not that Im extra irritable today, not at all at all.
Tutor sends back assessments with a note on the way its written and he would like changed.
Note is so generalised that I don't know where it applies in the doc and when I ask, the response is a polite version of FO.

Which is about a useful to me as a chocolate teapot in the tropics.

Chocolate teapots and fireguards are extremely useful; you can eat them

They are allowed out. Jaysus if they were stuck in 24/7 they would go nuts. We go for a cycle or a scoot every afternoon after the schoolwork is done and they also do sprints up and down the road. Once they know to stay away from people it is fine.
We're lucky to have a back garden too so they go out there for a while (whether they want to or not :pac: )

They have been out,i mean i can just let them have the freedom to play like they are used too.

There is local gossip going around that a couple of the resident junkies in town were attempting to shoplift earlier, and when the shopkeeper confronted them at the door, he was spat at by one of the vermin. Now its fairly common behaviour from them as they have basically run amok in various premises around the town without much censure (typical Irish "justice") but to be deliberately spitting on someone in this current climate is grounds for a public lynching. My blood is boiling.

santry

The way Sharon Ni Bheolain on RTE news says Fianna Fail, she says it like Fianna Foil, really annoying because it sounds wrong although she is probably pronouncing it properly. It grates.

People who do this now should be shot. It's vile behaviour at the best of times, but it's really despicable now. It's happening to guards and paramedics too. :mad:

Filthy scum.

Because a certain percentage of the population do not care about anyone but themselves.

TA that I forgot to set my alarm this morning. Should be working already so will need to make up the time later.

Also weird dreams where I was bursting to wee but didn't wake up to actually wee.
