That takes planning ahead. I needed a stamp that day. Not in 2 days time

TA when people read my TAs and think they can offer a better solution.

The inevitability of folk ringing into Joe Duffy soon to moan about their Ulster Bank or KBC account being locked out on them, despite there being near constant adverts in media and on radio for 6 months, telling them to get their ar$e in gear and sort them out.

"It's a disgrace Joe, I never heard any advert"

Ah sure, was just suggesting you buy a couple to have on hand. Keep them in your wallet next to the emergency condom.

They don't expire (unlike aforementioned condom), and will still be valid for national postage in ten years time (even if the price of stamps go up).

But sure, do as you wish!

The one or 2 times in a decade I will need a stamp? What are the chances that I will be able to find it in 5 years time?

Ah, sure then queue the couple of times a decade you need a stamp.

There is (was) a stamp vending machine at the GPO, and the PO in Rathmines. And I've seen them in some shopping centres... St Stephen's Green, The Square, Liffey Valley.... But sure they're probably out of order ...

TA about a debate about the merits of ordering stamps.

Nobody died, there was a minor (i.e. trivial) irritation in the post office.

Had €20 in my pocket yesterday that seems to have vanished into thin air 🙄

Can't find it and I've searched everywhere ☺️

TA where people have to have the last word. It is particularly bad on boards the last year or 2.

Work colleague bringing me a breakfast bap for morning tea break.

A) I didn't ask for it

B) I now feel obliged to buy her something in return

C) It's not helping my diet

D) Its gonna ruin my lunch, I don't normally eat a second breakfast at 10am.

(I did eat it though, and it was delicious, god dammit!)

Sick again. Convinced it's finally going to be Covid after having swerved it this long.

Famous isn't famous anymore and to some extent we all live in our own media bubbles and don't hear about anything that goes on outside them. There's a difference though, between living in a bubble, and living in a cave. A woman on a radio quiz a couple of weeks ago didn't know where the world cup was on. I mean, even if you've no interest in football you'd think you'd hear someone discussing it at some point. Even if not discussing the football, discussing the blatant corruption in FIFA or the horrendous human rights abuses over there.

'Ah sure you know yourself' ... 'yeah'

'Are you with me' ... 'I'm with you'

The Three and Vodafone ads. Plus every other OTT totes emosh ad that TV seems to be awash with nowadays. So so cringey.

Not really trivial, I guess. I've to self-isolate in my room for a week now and I'm cracking up already. I may have to pinch my sister's TV but even then, I have no idea how I'm going to get through this.

Pawwed Rig

When you click on a thread on boards and start reading the new posts. Then realise you cannot remember what thread you clicked on and the posts are not making any sense. Please tell me it is not just me??

Why?

No one self isolates with covid any more.

If these are the current guidelines then it seems he/she is correct to isolate.

https://www2.hse.ie/conditions/covid19/restricted-movements/how-to-self-isolate/

Personally in my house we decided long ago that if one of us gets covid we are all getting it. May be irresponsible but I wasn't about to isolate one of my kids regardless of the guidelines.

Also I would have zero issue going outside with covid as long as it wasn't a risk to anyone else.

Some of us do, as a precaution for spreading any virus. It's the safest thing for everyone.

Yeah, I thought I was invincible (too) until last week. Ah well...

My trivial annoyance is that I slept for 2.5 hours this evening so I'll probably be awake until it's time to get up for work in the morning.

That I’m back up out of bed , with nothing to do. Wordle is done. Boards and FoG caught up on . Plus I’m freezing . Sorry to hear @Dial Hard you tested positive. i’m also starving but my next door neighbour will be banging on the wall if I nuke my dinner.

My TA is being a bit stressed with too much to do between now and Christmas, then it will be over before I could even enjoy the short season. 😡

Plus all these revolving "ads by google" taking over half the screen and covering content - above, below, beside... I thought finding forums was bad enough - Boards might as well erase the entire Categories section, no way to navigate around the adverts to simply get to the now hidden menu.

Cause dem's de rules and I'm prepared to uphold my side of the social contract.

I also live with my parents who are in their 70s and haven't had it yet.

But mostly because I feel you'd want to be some prick to knowingly go out and interact with people while carrying a virus that caused the entire world to grind to a halt for the guts of two years. But maybe that's just me.
