    Same as most adults would be unable to equip a horse to pull a trap. Skills and techniques inevitably fall into desuetude.

    I was laughing at the revived Blankety Blank giving the same old prize of the metal chequebook and pen, to the generation of competitors that never had a chequebook.

    As soon as i read your post this evening. This accident happened in Co. Mayo last night. It took the life of a 13 year old boy.

    What a tragedy.

    As I do not know all the details about this crash as of yet. If any young lad out there want to drive these huge machines in future. They need to have a huge rethink about how to drive them while out on various roads in rural Ireland in the near future.

    If the parent and child have a talk about it between themselves in their homes. It should be done now as a matter of priority to avoid more loss of life as this story is going out on the news wires tonight.

    Not to mention the Shush, Shush from his friends who want everyone else to stop their conversations so he can "entertain" everyone at the party.

    Grown men with baseball caps backwards.

    People who wear designer clothes with huge writing on it, like "Boss" taking up the whole of the front of your jumper.

    Try hards.

    People(customers) who answer a call whilst dealing with them and try to have a divided attention conversation. Fair enough answer the call but tell them you will ring back in a minute if it’s THAT important. Special shout out to those that answer the call without even giving you eye contact or a wink wink I need to answer this for a second. They literally go from a conversation with you straight into a call.

    What if they’re trying to keep their neck protected from the sun?

    Re: the opening post and Irish names, a lot do it so they can't be found on social media. I even have an English friend who does it.

    Forced Irishness annoys me. There's a distinct Irish craic and use of the language that you either have or you don't, and I don't have it. I just want to sit down and have a chat over some beers. Same with some Irish people I know living abroad who just have to make sure everyone knows they are thoroughbred Irish, like their nationality is a huge part of their entire persona. It's like there's an LGBTI and they just have to make their identity around the I.

    I was thinking that. I wear baseball caps because I'm bald and it's mainly to protect my skin. I don't wear them backwards but if I was doing gardening or something where my neck would be constantly exposed I would probably do it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 30,544 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Where is this plague of men wearing baseball caps backwards in Ireland??? I can't remember the last time I spotted that.

    I doubt many baseball caps have peaks long enough to protect your neck unless you positioned it perfectly and then didn't move an inch.

    always use suncream

    People who instead of going to the long queue with a shopping trolley, stuff as many items as humanly possible into their shopping basket and join the short queue, usually reserved for those who only have a few items that they want to purchase



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,399 ✭✭✭jippo nolan


    Tossers who go around the bakery area of a supermarket squeezing unwrapped fresh bread with their snot laden fingers !



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,917 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Men with facial hair who constantly run their hands over it, in the same vain women do with their hair.

    I hate airports with a passion.

    It's not the flight, it's because there is something about air travel that brings the moron out in people. The people who can't figure out how the scan a bar code right through to the people who can't figure out the difference between the front and the back door of the plane. Don't mention the security checks. It's usually people that fly regularly that cause the greatest issues. The people with a bag full of make up and liquids that they shouldn't have.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭easygoing39


    You'd be grumpy if your on shift work/weekends and bank holidays for €15 per hour!!

    Middle-aged men with a big belly wearing a Manchester United jersey. Often seen at Dublin Airport drinking a pint at 6am.



  • Registered Users Posts: 19,528 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Get another job if you have a problem with that, compadre.

    Looks like customer service and the travel industry is not your bag.

    DeLz are hiring!

    Great shout, Doc. Should see a few more of them about now that they are back in the Champion’s League. They had been incredibly scarce for a long time.

    My main “concern” is what happens to the League of Ireland attendances if they start winning premierships or Champion’s Leagues.

    They got a massive boost, Rovers and Bohs in particular, with their United’s terrible form over the last few years. Up to this year with the FA cup and a top 4 finish the best “result” United fans had was Liverpool losing 3 nil to Barcelona in that first leg.

    The fickle ex-United “fans” who threw those jerseys into the back of the wardrobe and claimed to only LoI because it’s purer won’t be slow in digging them back out and stretching them over their protruding guts to start shouting at the tv on the pub again.

    Hopefully that won’t happen and the League of Ireland will continue to “grow” but you’d have to worry. A very fickle bunch.
