Things That Trialvilly Annoy You.

Pawwed Rig

People who rave about the food they are given regardless of the quality.
Had a SIL once wax lyrical about a supermacs snackbox.
She would say any aul shyte was lovely.

I realize as a whole, Americans are referred as Yanks or Yankees. My ancestors fought for the South, so I get annoyed being referred as a Yankee.

I get annoyed when Yanks refer to Paddy's day as "St Patty's day" so swings and roundabouts :P

Why is that btw? I read online that Paddy is now considered an offensive term. Is that true?

Hell I don't know, we didn't celebrate St Patricks day in my town. You would have to ask a Yankee why that is.

Pity she's not from Cork. Confederate flags all over the shop down there, you would have felt right at home.

That packet ham is pure dirt. Plastic crap. Get the good stuff, costs more, but it's worth it.
Also, Heineken from a bottle smells like farts.

Never understood why Cork would take our battle flag. Would that count as cultural appropriation? heh

How many times do I have to say it?

I. DO. NOT. WANT. TO. BE. IN. YOUR. STUPID. PHOTOGRAPHS!

but especially, in this specific case,

I. DO. NOT. WANT. TO. BE. IN. YOUR. STUPID. PHOTOGRAPHS. WHILE. I'M. HAVING. MY. DINNER!!

You two insisted in dragging me here - you know I'd much rather be elsewhere, TBH, at least let me eat my effing pizza in peace. :mad:

It's in the South, and the "Rebel Cork" thing. And it's (sort of) red and white.

They take the Imperial Japanese Rising Sun flag on occasion.

Neither has any place at a match in Ireland, but there you go.

Then they get all indignant when I beep....ffs!!!

People pushing the pedestrian lights button when they have no intention of crossing the road, just to cause a red light on a nice open road. Grrrrr

*By far my fav of this, is a man explaining the difference between a goal and point and how to calculate the score with both in it.

Seeing people in fancy winter outfits in August with no shame

Blitzkrieger

On a boiling hot day a few weeks ago (26 degrees plus) I had a woman wearing a thick, long sleeved top, with a shirt peeking out from under it, and a body warmer over that complaining that it was too warm! Too warm? You're dressed for the ****ing north pole! I try to enjoy all the warm weather we have - winter is long enough!

honeybear

Trying on outfits that have camisoles/slips attached - it’s like being in a maze sometimes

My mother insisting on using the term "put up" instead of "put on" when talking about weight gain. You don't "put up six pounds" you put it on. You might BE up six pounds.

That and the way she says book, pronounced like bOOk - why?!

Also, she is not a morning person, fair enough but she got annoyed with me last week because I didn't want an omelette the day after staying over:

- do you want an omelette?
- no thanks, I'm grand
- hmmph! suit yourself!

I was given a rug, secondhand a while back. During the week I brought it outside to wash it. The minute the water hit it, the stench of urine came off it like a cloud. I can't smell anything else now, time to chop some onions, anything would be better than that.

Those stupid chain status updates on Facebook, the ones where they’re going to apparently share your photos or make you start paying for the service. How do people with working brains fall for them? I’d be fascinated to know the psychology behind them. Do people just love the drama?

And “you know what you should do”. ‘Should’ers are the worst.

When you sit at your desk with one leg under you and the doorbell chimes and you stand up to answer it and your underneath leg feels dead or is made of jelly and you do a lopsided crab walk to the door while the delivery guy watches through the glass sidelight.

Stop judging me, delivery guy!

What about answering the phone to someone who, after exchanging pleasantries, says "I'll tell you why I called you..."

Yea that' a real bug bearer of mine alright. There's a new person in the office who just love's to dish out the advice , for example yesterday I was chatting away to a manager about a project I'm working on with him as soon as the conversation was over the new guy butts in and says to me

"You need to be more confident when speaking to the boss, I would have said Bla bla bla . . . "

Felt like hitting him there and then :mad::mad:

All good, lump was just fatty tissue but being in the mammary region it was worth getting checked. Expensive piece of mind but piece of mind nonetheless!

I tried to make buttercream icing but failed miserably. There are only a handful of ingredients so it's really difficult to get wrong.

A drop of hot water added to butter and sugar makes it lighter and smoother. I've started to substitute marscapone for some of the butter to get a little less fat and a taste which is less sweet.

People wanting to park at the parade of shops by the Grange Pub traffic lights in Deansgrange. The whole "lay-by" is clogged up with cars so they can't even drive in, never mind park, but no problem, they can just wait for it to sort itself out...by sitting stopped on the main road and effectively blocking the southbound junction. :mad:

Dial Hard

I've probably said it before, but people who quote a post but put their reply above the quote. Why???

No doubt someone will be along shortly to "hilariously" do just that...
