    Crying over everything. Emotions are super annoying.

    Outside the gate , the dog was out in the garden when I got home so left the car out instead of in the driveway .

    Did you put the dog outside the gate when you brought in the car?

    Seeing a woman riding a bike through rush hour traffic, wearing a forward facing sling in which she carried a little baby who looked no older than about 3 months.

    Absolute insanty, its such an unsafe and dangerous thing to do. If she even had a minor fall, the weight of her would kill that child. Just reckless carry on.
    Very TA'd about it hours later.

    What annoys me are cyclist dog walkers, accidents waiting to happen.
    Hmmm what if I combined two different activities which demand my attention AND go on the footpath. What could possibly go wrong?

    Absolutely starving going out for dinner and the main course, though delicious, was the size of a starter, I'd have eaten twice as much :(

    Why can a day out with my daughters not ever descend into all out war between at least two of them? It must be nice not to feel like Ireland's most dysfunctional family :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,020 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Yes.
    We have a local restaurant now cutting done on portion sizes to benefit the environment/etc.
    However the prices haven't reduced.

    Burning my tongue on the one scalding hot spot of the spag bol, from the microwave.

    ...and the rest being ice cold.

    Ta'ed that I lost my go to day to day hoodies yesterday! I've had it years and years and it was still in perfect condition, I had a good look on the route I took when I lost it and no sign(obs) so it was either stolen or not handed in.

    I hope it enjoys its new home.:mad:

    The Daily Mail will no longer let me use their site unless I disable ad blocker. Not going to happen. Guess I'll just go elsewhere, which is a pain because I find their site has the easiest layout.

    I do the same with most sites that ask to disable adblock.
    I don't mind a few ads but usually they are intrusive and hinder functionality.

    I pulled into a service station forecourt today and my son went in to pay for the staff assisted car wash for me.
    He came out with the receipt and I drove over to where the 2 men were currently washing a car and parked up ready to be next.
    One man came over and said they weren't taking any more cars for the day.
    Well, then why did your cashier sell me a ticket then?!
    Surely, you have a cut off time for that.
    We got a refund anyhow but I'm driving around in a muddy car still.

    Our flight home isn’t until this evening, and check out is at 11am, so we had planned to leave our stuff at reception in the apartments and then spend the day at the beach. TA’d that the weather has taken a turn and it mightn’t be nice enough to do that

    My normally measured, intelligent (British) wife losing her shït over Brexit.

    We are going to her sister's wedding in October. She expressed concern about being allowed back into the country after 31 Oct!

    When someone gives you Diet Coke when you asked for normal.

    A ****ing pint of it.

    Why would anyone do that?

    Looking down at my phone, in my reflection in the sunshine I can see every wrinkle and pore. Decrepit.

    Nobody ever looks good in a reflection. At least that's my excuse for getting a fright every time I catch a glimpse of myself by accident walking past a shop window. :eek:

    The same can be said for taking passport photos (or at least I think so anyways)

    Drivers who flick their cigarette butts out the window especially when you are behind them on a traffic line and ones who also bite their nails while driving with one hand :O

    My dog stinks thanks to a very unexpected running jump she took into a river yesterday but I'm just not mentally prepared for the stress and hassle of washing her.

    Someone's doing a poo next to me and there's a lot of grunting and gulping going on. The gulping is kind of disturbing me...

    Vocal fry. Was listening to an interesting podcast last night but had to switch off because the presenter sounded like she was trying to push her words out of her backside.

    People who raise the pitch of their words at the end of a statement so it sounds like they are asking a question. It's infuriating. It's also starting to appear in text format with people actually using a question mark instead of a full stop to infer raised pitch.

    TW; Pet death.

    Vet's bollixed up organising girl dog's cremation. They have had the body for two and a half weeks waiting for info that was given to them three times, twice the day of and again the day after!

    If that isn't annoying enough, this means another threeish week wait and more stress over where to put the ashes and how to pick them up(the return depot is hard to get to on public transport)

    I am sick to death of emailing colleagues asking two or three questions and only getting a response to the first question in the reply. I could send an email per question but I shouldn't have to because I expect professional adults to able to read, comprehend and reply to a three sentence email.


    It's something I've noticed in the past, but I've used it to my advantage by, for example, having a proposal in the second and third question and asking the person to let me know if they disagree with my proposed action.



    No reponse means they're ok with it! ;)

    People who reserve sunloungers by the pool with beach towels early in the morning while on holiday.

    Or people who do it in leisure centres.
    Hang your towel on a hook. If you're not on the lounger, it isn't yours.

    I worked with a guy like that before, I. He was, what is called a “middle stalwart”. He’d wait right outside the middle stall until it was free. Terrible etiquette.

    Once he was in he’d gulp, burp and make some other strained noises. Followed by some loud, wet, “toilet” ones.

    He would spend a lot of time in there, this didn’t go unnoticed by management. It was one of the factors in the decision not to renew his contract. While it was known that he suffered from some form of “IBS”, his conduct in the bathroom was unforgivable.

    In the process of moving from Limerick back to Tipp, I seem to have somehow misplaced my Beats speaker that was a Christmas present. Asked bf if he took it by mistake, but he hasn’t. It wasn’t in the apartment and it’s not at home. No idea where it could be but I’ll be absolutely sickened if I can’t find it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,825 ✭✭✭LirW


    How can it be that shipping charges out of the country are so brutal?! I have a few bits I wanna flip on ebay and the market is bigger in the UK but holy cow even just a small packet costs an arm and a leg!

    I don't wanna deal with adverts or donedeal, my nerves couldn't take that at the minute.

    I don’t know why but I just feel like this time of year is severely depressing.

    im in my 30s and STILL taken by surprise when after a few days of spiralling emotions, mood swings, random tears on demand and a monstrous appetite, my period suddenly arrives and I'm like "AH. THAT'S WHY. LOL"

    I need to brush my teeth but there’s a wardrobe in the doorway of the bathroom where my toothbrush is


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,305 ✭✭✭✭branie2

    No one is sure but Kitty's toothbrush is now in the place where her wardrobe was.
