Things That Trialvilly Annoy You.

THE. GLITCH. IS. BACK. :mad:

I was overtaken on a country road yesterday by some self-entitled Neanderthal. Not only did he cross a continual white line to overtake me, but actually slowed his car while overtaking and drove alongside me on the wrong side of the road for a good ten seconds so he could glare in the window at me for "driving too slow". And they'd have us believe that learners cause ALL the accidents. Me ars* - it's road rage and aggression :cool:

Have a tutorial in college today but don’t have the reading done because I was too busy over the weekend. This will be fun

I know several people who don't have kids and they call their pets their "baby". For some people, it is important to be personally responsible for the welfare and wellbeing of another dependent, living thing and if their pets are a source of joy to them then why does it matter? I'm sure they don't actually think the dogs are human babies. I love my dog the most in the world, she is an amazing source of joy for me and I frequently call her my "babba" (as well as other terms such as "noisy oyster", "fart machine" and "big, hairy weirdo"). I don't think she is a human baby.

I've seen this gripe so often and I can't help feeling that it comes across as mean-spirited - dog owners don't take anything from parents by using terms of endearment for their animals

Do you know that television programme, 'Place in the Sun'? You know the way there is usually a charming retired couple on it and they are searching for humble bolthole after working their arses off all their lives. And you know the way they are shown three properties and one ticks all the boxes and even though it's over their budget they put a lower bid in than the asking price and with a little bit of wiggling it's accepted and you are delighted for them, drinking their orange juices beside the sea, planning warm summer evenings in the sun in the harvest of their years. And you know the voice-over then cuts in and announces something along the lines of 'Debbie and Mark went back to the UK and decided not to buy the ideal villa by the sea that we went out of our way to secure for the ungrateful b'startds and are continuing their search for the ideal property in Spain....' And the credits roll. That annoys me. Time-wasting cnuts.

I've never seen anyone buy a house on that stupid show. And all those silly bints deciding not to buy an otherwise suitable house because "the bathroom's a wrong colour isn't it" or you know, the place is just too Spanish and not enough like home :rolleyes:

Or gob****es who sign birthday, Christmas cards etc also from the dog.

Foil, Arms and Hog. They periodically annoy me when my attention is drawn to their uninspiring, hackneyed material.

Today is one of those days. A friend tagged me underneath their second-to-latest video. Christ on a rothar, that’s some signposted, gentle comedy. 1.8 million views in a week though. :eek:

Relax. It is just a trivial annoyance.

They're not as bad as the people (mainly women) who buy reborn baby dolls and treat them like kids. They dress them up, bring them for walks in a pushchair and act like they're real, live babies. It's creepy. There's also reborn monkeys which is a whole other level of whackadoodle.

I caught that heavy head cold that's doing the rounds, my head is mega muzzy.
It feels like the world is demanding all kinds of impossible tasks, when I cant even figure out where I am!

Those ads for ladies products where various different women talk about wetting themselves. No one wants to see that. Especially when I'm sitting down to my dinner after a long day.

Lost an earpod last night walking home in the rain. Well actually i managed to drop both of them but found one. Got soaked trying to find the other one.

TA people on the internet drawing an inference that I am not relaxed on the basis that I have a different opinion to them.

I still remember the (was it senokot or something?) ad. Anyway it was for relieving constipation and basically the woman in it spent the whole day throwing her meals into her handbag from the plate. I think some marketing moron decided that her bag would be representative of her digestive system. She groaned and made awful faces as she "carried" all her food around with her all day. Then at the end when she took this magic constipation cure, she blew a handful of leaves at the camera and said "go on, enjoy your day!" -

TA constipation ads.

I have been in an unfathomable foul mood since Sunday and I just want this week to be over.
Still can't shake this cough off from a cold I had last week....I don't wanna go to the doctor....

If I ever found the guy who tried to break into my house at 4.30 Sunday morning, I would sadistically methodically disembowel him, while keeping him alive, so the last thing he sees, is the maggots feasting on his flesh, while unable to cry out as the tongue would be the first to be removed from his body.

I even have a problem with people putting their older children's names on cards when their children, obviously, couldn't give a flying fcuk about you.

The back of the toilet doors here in work all have posters for internal comms.
This months ones have a picture of some bloke staring back at you.
It's so unnerving trying to take a dump.
Stop looking you weirdo!

People walking out of shops and not looking where they are going.Look ahead as you are walking out of the shop/Stop and look in whatever direction you want.

The amount of people who nearly walked in to me today.

Put clothes into a clothes Bank for the first time today (usually off loaded to nieces)

But the Bank had a chute type thing obviously to stop people climbing in, but I'm tiny so couldn't push the bags all the way into the chute, so now the Bank looks full. They are in far enough to not fall out though

I used to do this until a first cousin called me out on it. I was around 7.

Kitty6277

Had my head stuck in my phone walking out of a shop today and passed the lad I’m totally crushing on. Didn’t see him and only realised it was him when mam said “was that so and so?” and when I saw his car outside. That’ll teach me :rolleyes:

I stayed later in work yesterday hoping it would stop raining so I could go for my run. At 6 it still hadn't cleared up. So now not only was I wet anyway but also late.

Not trivial at all but picked euromillions numbers on the app but didn't press the play now button.
I hope I never find out

Friends kids who turned out to be ungrateful brats. I gave them Christmas and birthday presents when they were younger, now they won't even acknowledge me. A simple hello would do. Why did I waste my time and money.

More than trivial but being told you're useless and a disaster by someone at work.

Morning Seph! Post pulled at the heartstrings ... what a horrible “colleague”. I’ve worked in a few different jobs and “there’s always one” (not currently, thankfully). Wishing you a more positive workday today (I’m on weekend countdown since ... Monday morning!)

That's not a TA, that is outright rude and uncalled for.

I have my pitchfork sharpened. Just say the time & place.

Poochie05

Seph there’s always someone trying to make themselves feel better by bringing other people down. Just remember the problem is theirs. Sometimes it can help to call them out by asking nicely 'what makes you say that?', soon makes them think when they have to justify their throw away comments
