He's really old too... and has so many injuries from doing martial arts, that he walks like a crab first thing in the morning and would probably shatter into a thousand pieces if someone actually challenged him to a fight in real life! :pac:

(I think he also fought in vietnam or some sh!te as well)

But he's still hard as nails don't you know! :P

Liverpool fans - crawl back to your boxes

Keeping up with the Joneses.

A friend of mine, only in his early 20s, puts in huge effort to give the appearance of wealth. We met up the other day and he saw I had a new phone, no biggie. Today he informs me he has pissed away 1300 for the new iPhone 11 Pro max whatever.

Why must everything be a competition? It's mind numbingly stupid always trying to one up others

Parents and students whinging about late leaving cert results and how stressd out they are.

I did my LC in 1981, anyone else who did theirs that year will remember that the results came out in mid September due to strike, the sky didn't fall in, people still went on the third level.
Suck it up.

Actually, pretty much anything to do with Premier League football.

Grown ups who love/obsessed with Harry Potter/Disney Movies - grow up
Those who lose their mind with Superhero movies, i like watching them but people who get whingy about them are annoying and say this about every superhero movie (i'd only agree with them when they do lazy gender swap reboots) and honestly they end up with same premise
Instagram/Social media "stars"
Anime, Digimon and Pokemon
Donald Trump/American Politics, no fan of trump but im trying to take a break from a friend whose an obsessed hater of his, who has to squeeze their dislike of him into every conversation (hes trying to do the same with Boris too)
Fascination with Celebrities personal lives, who cares who'se dating who, whose lgbt, etc..

The obsession with the Gym...just people who go on and on about going to one, whinging about "cheat meals/days"....Couldn't care less if you go and stop spamming social media with Gym stuff.... good you go to the gym, dont need an update on it

It's just an instant turn off with me for a woman who'se obsessed with the gym

im sick of the tactic of go to the media to drum up support from the luvvies who will "protest" this...have your application and one appeal within 3/6 months and that's it...

Grown ups who say hollibobs/pops

And those who whinge endlessly on and on, either in person/social media about needing a holiday/go abroad...no one cares you dont have your 5 holidays away..

live laugh love or those sh!tty "inspirational" posts

Those who play/involved with gaa, a lot have a sense of self importance or thinking theyre local celebrities in their local area....

I agree with most of that... except militant atheists... I fcuking love in your face militant atheists!

I love (and actively take part in) the degradation and destruction of god/religion. It's one of my favourite things to do, in fact!

I really hope our generation can continue the great work of tearing down and dismantling these evil diseased and decrepit institutions. For me, it's one of the most important steps in our evolution as species!

I agree. the worst ones are the women who used to be fat, because its all that matters to them now. if they have 5 pictures on a dating site, at least 4 of them will be a gym pic. everyone should exercise the same way everyone should eat a breakfast or get sleep, its like their whole personality is the gym which is very boring.

gym bores, there's a small time wannabe influencer down who was obese before she shed the pounds and she's now going to car parks with her poor friend to take photos of herself in fancy/branded clothes and doing make up tips in hope she'd get freebies ....she has less than a thousand fans....and every post she does comes off as she's saving the world with her posts, being obnoxious as hell (she's known around the nightscene - regular in certain pubs/clubs ) and choreographed posing in Merchant's quay car park

This is a class way of saving time and eating halfway healthy. Don't have to be gym bro to do that.

Christmas Cards.

20 years ago, I loved them. Older and wiser now and don't give a $hit about them.

Happy to never see another one coming in my door. I used to stress myself out about having to send the U.S. ones by whatever date, the U.K. by another date. Last date for posting Irish ones etc. Gave it up as a bad habit about 10 years ago.

Charlie19

Read a thread title before I clicked this one and it was about Eamon Ryan sleeping in the Dail.

I most certainly won't be clicking into that thread.

Just inane boring stuff like local celebrity/politician gossip. The whole Epstein case for instance, don't know why, just find it boring. Like they said in peep show, 9/11 was great news. The problem is it desensitized me to everything. When I was discovering the world, so many things happened(Omagh bombing, Kursk disaster, 9/11, Moscow theatre siege, Beslan, Afghanistan and Iraq) all these seemed like plots of movies playing out on screen; we reached peak news in 2003 tbh

Reality TV the kardasahians big brother stars love Island stars, the sun the daily star, absolutely irrelevant.

Boris Johnson.

Why is my wife who never gave a fiddler's about British politics suddenly obsessed with a hatred of Boris?
Yes she is English but hasn't lived there in over 20 years and has applied for an Irish passport. Prior to Brexit and Boris she had zero interest in politics. Now it's all Huawei, evil Boris and conspiracy theories!

It's really starting to wear on me.

Nice to see Boris' divisiveness transcends borders.

My contribution to the thread - Boris

Birthdays. I don't give a sh1t that you've managed to survive for x amount of years.

BLM. Virtue signalling nonsense that will be forgotten about come September.

Reality TV. A good way to filter out the brainless from your life. Grown men chatting about Love Island? My God...

Staycations tO hElP sTrUgGlInG bUsInEsSeS. No.

Leaving Cert. As a nation, we have a very weird interest in a set of exams. Odd.

Rebel music. Cringe.

Derry Girls/Young Offenders/Normal People. Dross.

Women's sport. Sorry, I just can't watch a sport that's far inferior to a sport I can watch on tap in the form of male sports.

-People who have strong opinions but no factual evidence or worse yet being over confident on the limited information they know on a topic.

-Whataboutery

-Whingers who moan at the slightest provocation. Letting it ruin their whole day and inflicting their bad mood on others.

-People who do not stick by their principals. One example is when people I know who are all anti celebrity, anti vanity, anti vaccuous watch a show like Love Island and say "it's just a bit of craic". No, you're supporting that s***e and propogating that culture of vanity & fake celebrity. You are part of the problem but whatever, just don't talk to me about how we have to improve society and all that.

-Speaking instead of doing. Shut up, do the thing and then talk about it. Not big grand statements.

The Irish hockey (both sexes) and cricket teams.

mmm. Saw a post from another rereg was deleted by him. Oh, something else I don't give a hoot about.

Pretty much all social media /popular crusades. Unfortunately though it's no longer that simple.

Social media has moved into a position where any random "trending" post can be globally recognised in minutes and often regurgitated or taken at face value without the reader doing their own thinking on the topic - particularly because these things come with a "you're with us or against us" angle that doesn't support reasoned debate.

The problem though is that it was one thing when this stuff was confined to Facebook and Twitter but now these divisive agendas (often American originated and wholly incompatible with countries and societies beyond their borders) are becoming a basis for domestic politics and social policies as those most vulnerable to it crave validation from others.

In a country with enough problems as it is like Ireland, we certainly don't need to be importing more from a deeply divided and fractured place like the US.

It's becoming increasingly harder to speak out against such things without being labelled a - phobe or - ist and this accelerates the problem and discourages discussion because of the potential consequences to anyone not "on message", that and formerly respected media outlets likewise regurgitating this stuff to fill virtual column inches and simultaneously adding legitimacy to whatever the "cause" of the week is. RTE is a perfect example of this, but pretty much all mainstream Irish media works along these lines. Ireland in particular seems to soak the worst of it up like a sponge.

Unfortunately I think it'll get much worse before it gets better though.

Those vivid and quite pointed descriptions suggest that you do in fact give quite a few $h1ts about those things.

And its 'principles'.

For my part, I'm into politics and current affairs and World issues and all that, but one I think I genuinely couldn't give a flying shyte about, is the middle east peace process.

I'm not talking about Syria, where I think Russian involvement should concern us all, but the Holy Land stuff, Israel and Palestine. Its so utterly inconsequential on the World scale and so unlikely ever to produce a workable solution it just bores the ar5e off me.
