    People wearing their ill fitting masks in shops. I am meaning where their noses and mouth are barely covered. But yet hover over you in the aisles.I told one to back away and she made such a fuss you would think I assaulted her.

    It's a large headed, puny bodied plastic pop culture collectable figure.

    Apologies, W, I’m not well up on nerd “culture”. Bobbleheads don’t bother me, though.

    People using the term "Irish Stew" when they clearly have no idea what Irish Stew actually is.

    They are creepy. They remind me of the time I visited my brother, and his daughter was mad into this film called Coraline. About having buttons sewn into eyes.

    Clients with notions. Fcuk off, I'm trying to log off for the long weekend.

    Ironically, them wanting to comment to media about the Right to Disconnect code of practice is what has me still at work at 7pm on the eve of a banker.

    People who sit and eat their food in the drive through collection points at McDonald's, holding up the queue for everyone else.

    The book is great. The buttons thing is incredibly creepy though, I’ll give you that.

    Just got rejected from a job I applied to in Belgium so now I get to look at other job ads peppered with nonsense like "self-starter" and "innovative".

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Spammers on Facebook. They usually bombard the likes of Irish Times / Irish Independent articles with comments about
    1/ Bitcoin
    2/ Spellcasters
    3/ Loans

    Some people post responses to them but they never reply. Are they real? Do they have feelings?

    I'd be moving there relatively fast now.....none in Tesco yesterday , their shelves were getting bare Wednesday week ago.

    I was in 2 lidls yesterday and there was about 20 eggs in each that was first thing in the morning.

    Some small local "corner shops" might have them but you will pay.

    Hey! They're saving time refilling it constantly when they want to make another one in future. They're being smart!!!

    I always refill my kettle after I use it. However my kettle has a brita filter built-in and it take a little time after filling before you can use it.

    Clowns that post on FB about their kid really wanting a certain Easter egg (or xmas toy on Dec 24th)
    "Does anyone know where i can get this egg/toy, little Jimmy/Janet is going to be so disappointed, of course its not my fault its the shop's for not having enough!"

    FFS its not like these celebrations come around without warning, yes people they've been here for centuries...

    It's a waste if you keep boiling it. That's why I bought a thermal flask in the first place. I never have to boil the kettle more than once in the day.

    I often find people like this are on the beg and hoping they’ll get one for free.
    Also, when people post what time does Lidl close tonight?

    In fairness, you cannot rely on supermarkets' websites to provide correct opening times. Sometimes even the signs outside the shop are incorrect.

    I’ve never encountered this apart from maybe at Christmas.
    Lidl and Aldi are fairly the same in my experience.
