    You are sitting at your office desk and someone calls over to discuss something.

    You load the excel file/report, etc on your monitor so you can both check it

    And then your visitor jabs their fingers onto your monitor screen ?!? Have you no personal boundaries?

    And it’s not even necessary, any primary school child can look and point. Why are you putting your greasy paws on my monitor screen? 😡

    That’s my TA and far too common

    When you're expecting a credit card bill to be in the loose change category and turns out to be a few hundred...all correct too...forgotten purchases 😄

    The in-laws (toddlers in tow) are calling tomorrow during all the World Cup games. I will have to feign interest in talking to them whilst trying to watch the matches.

    Had a blow up with the wife last night when she landed me with this news. Shes still pissed off with me.

    Why cant I just be left alone?......dont get me started on Christmas, the worst time of year for fakeness.

    Car failure on the coldest/snowy day of the year, not even related to the cold 🙄

    There are three bathrooms in this house but I'm convinced my sister lies in wait to see which specific one I'm about to use so she can jump in there before me.

    The attractive woman has returned to the gym. She uses the only squat rack for over an hour when she's here.

    If I'm in the vet's reception area with my cat in a carrier, please control your fcuking mutt and shorten his lease if he keeps jumping on people. My cat is already poorly, I don't need your "aww he's just an excited puppy" barking and jumping at her to stress her out even more.

    My neighbour accross the road, a nice enough but an increasingly eccentric woman.

    Same as last time, she decided to clear her driveway and car of snow and ice by just shovelling it from her driveway to the path and road outside…. Ice and snow on top of ice and snow. 🧐

    This isn't the things that trivially arouse you thread. 😉

    EDIT: Now with added emoji power

    TA...Boards seems to have lost it's ability to take a joke or sense sarcasm. Not related to this thread, (or maybe it is, the dark horse can enlighten me on that one) just seems to be the way it is now. Since semi-returning to Boards I often see obvious jokes that have been taken in a way they were never meant to be. Seems like we used to have a bit more of a laugh on AH.

    If the post wasn't appropriate for the thread, that's fine. I've removed it. If it was a joke, you could have added an emoji or something. Hard to tell when it's all text. TA.

    Ah shite, I was joking. This is exactly what I was talking about above. Maybe I should use emojis, never usually would. I would usually have quite dry humour delivered with a straight face so that part is a bit foreign to me.



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,857 ✭✭✭growleaves


    "Excuse me, I'm interested in your rack..."

    🤣

    Seriously tho, chat her up next time.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 38,529 CMod ✭✭✭✭ancapailldorcha


    Nah. She comes in with headphones on and one of the least welcoming demeanours I've seen in anyone. I've no interest in being the gym creep. I go at 6am to get away from most people.

    TA that there's another woman who comes in and sits on said only squat rack for an hour tapping at her phone.

    My feet won't warm up.



  • Registered Users Posts: 10,732 ✭✭✭✭EmmetSpiceland


    Enjoying your semi, Deebs. Maybe this is the start of AH being funny, and less “political”, again.

    Anyway, my TA is people not getting the snow/ice off the top of their car before heading out into traffic.

    Also, people using their phones while driving on ice.

    Irish people's inability to dress for this weather. There's been snow on the ground all day where I am and the amount of people I've seen out and about in, like, Converse is just mind-boggling.

    Also, bare ankles. It's -2, FFS!



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,654 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    Confirmed sighting of the Shorts-in-all-weather brigade just in too 🙄🙄🙄

    I had to go to the shop but the car was frozen over. Put warm water over it and ,with the cold, felt the urge to pee. By the time I came out the windows were frozen again 😡😡

    Just drove past a gaggle of school girls in skirts and knee socks. Ridiculous carry on in this weather.

    Bought something that's a few hours drive away and don't know when I'll get the time to collect it.

    I want it now 😭😭

    TA’d that the chance to present my vaccination QR code (using the apps that are the standard for other EU countries) is on the wane. Nothing more would annoy/confuse those in low administrative positions (without the requisite gear to actually interpret the code) than the German, French etc app layout. 😀

    My retort was always that the QR code is recognised all over Europe. 🇪🇺

    There can't be a house in the country without a hi-vis jqacket of some sort lying around yet there's quite an abundance or dark clothed walkers, runners and cyclists about in less than 50 metre visibility all over the city 😡🤬

    What trivially annoys me about this is the logic,

    Standing at a freezing, wet, breezy bus stop, I had neck pain from swivelling to see if my bus was coming(there was a curve with a wall, so it would just appear out of nowhere)

    A couple arrived and stood a few feet away from the stop, one was smoking and it was drifting towards me(I'm very allergic to it) so I moved into the shelter to stand close to the person I was talking too. I mentioned to her that I was moving to get away from the smoke(in response to her looking alarmed at me moving towards her)

    The couple overheard me(though I don't know how as I was trying to be quietly spoken) and the smoker asked me if they weren't good enough for me? I said no I was just trying to avoid the smoke as I have a chest condition that smoke triggers.

    The smoker snaps back and says "I have asthma too, how do you think I feel"?

    What????????????????????????????????????
