    Tea bags bursting. It's happened twice in the last week, different brands too.

    What is with all the stupid ads on boards for what looks like Spanish language anime cartoon porn? Every single ad for me now is this rubbish.

    Anyone ( other than the women carrying the baby ) who says " we are pregnant . " No , a man is not pregnant he is expecting a baby , I see Brian Dowling now whinging because he and Arthur were called out for saying " We are pregnant " . They were not , his sister was and the lads were expecting their baby but NO they were not pregnant .

    Paul Murphy for calling his baby BOY, it as they are going to let Juniper decide what gender he wants to be. Poor kid.

    This weekend! I live in the UK and I'm seeing a slow build up of the "diddillly dyeeee, top of the mornin' to ya Paddy!" bull shyt train fast approaching.

    My wife's sister (also living in and from the UK) has a baby going to sensory classes. They were doing a photo shoot the last day. They had the child sit in front of a green screen type thing and took a photograph. They then superimposed a leprechaun and a rainbow on the green screen, with the child sitting beside the pot of gold. Doing it to celebrate St Patrick's day apparently?!

    When she showed me the pictures I nearly cringed the cultural appropriation clean outta my own eyeballs.

    (And yes I am a walking contradiction as I'll be in a pub this Friday drinking a Guinness, because its our celebration day, grrr!)





  • TA’d in advance about all the people who are going to say “Happy St Patty’s day”

    makes me sick.

    Related to St 'Patty's' Day, that stupid green dye they pour into the river in Chicago.

    I know it's supposed to be harmless but it makes the river look heavily polluted. Such a childish thing to do.

    Muppets on escooters staring at their phones as they tootle along swerving all over the road.

    Just discussing this here in work and the lads were amazed that we thought all this was a load of crap . They thought all women loved the idea of international womens day etc.

    More corporate crap. I feel elated to have been invited to the “social media misogyny phenomenon” brunch.

    At least all of the lazy ass employees can congregate and be useless in the same space for a while.

    Ebike and escooter users are uniformly *the* worst road users around. By a long shot.

    Bad customer service. Not the first time this has happened. Waiting to collect prescription and I told counter staff I would be just outside as I do every time. She even knew my name and said hello etc. Wont be too long... I'm watching 3 of them huddle in the corner chatting interrupted maybe 2 or 3 times for people getting items. One of them passes me a number of times, the other 2 including the one that took the order see me standing there.

    27 Mins later I ask the young one that has passed me a number of time while moving stuff around on shelves what's happening? The order was sitting on the shelf waiting while the one who took the order was still in the corner gossiping an the chemists were sitting chatting. When I said I've been waiting nearly 30 mins I get told. Oh I didn't serve you. 🤬

    Liars. Particularly those who spin a tale to exploit the good nature of others. Rotten to the core of their souls.

    ‘ we are pregnant ‘ why not just say, ‘ we are going to have a baby ‘….

    that ‘we is pregnant ‘ shîte is akin to saying, when only one person is ….

    ’ we are getting a haircut ‘ will you both fit in the chair ?

    ’ we are getting buried today ‘ no you dumb fûck, you are still alive, your partner is dead.

    The 'Cheltenham look' among lads this week, who think they are some sort of local celeb because they happened to pick the winning horse. Never mention how much they lose on average though!

    I stopped going to one local pharmacy because of stuff like that. They are in the same centre as a very busy doctors surgery so fair enough, it's always busy. But it really looks like the staff spend more time chatting and faffing around than dealing with customers.

    The last time I was there I was asked do you need this this evening? Yes please. Well it won't be ready until tomorrow. This was after I had gone in early morning with the prescription and was told to call back later. 🤷‍♀️

    International box-ticking day, a day of tiresome LinkedIn-esque shyte.

    Our company hired wimmens, so brave.

    Last weekend a very expensive looking car drove into our driveway and an equally expensive looking man rang the door bell.

    When I answered, he said "I don't know if I'm in the correct place", I told him I was fairly sure that he wasn't, he got into a huff and told me his GPS brought him to here!

    I had an idea he was looking for the Airbnb a few doors up so I asked him what no house he was looking for, into the car he goes and brings me his phone where the messages says the house no three doors up.

    Ta, that somehow its my fault his GPS didn't bring him to the correct house as for the arrogants of driving into a house before they knew it was the right one, especially as the house names/numbers are clearly displayed on all the houses!. Ta I know.

    Just on the train back to Dublin and it reeks of stale piss and farts.

    Running in hailstones. Turns out they're very easy and most unpleasant to inhale.

    He's a pontificating tosspot. Just push the buttons Ray, ask the guests questions and go home. It's fairly simple.

    Being woken up calf muscle cramps, 2 in a row, really painful and my hot water bottle burst to make matter worse.





  • It’s kind of sad isn’t it they reckon they’re being awfully cool and impressing the divil out of us when in actual fact we’re all cringing and hoping they’ll just fcuk off and get a life

    have they not enough to celebrate over there that they need to piggy back of our thing

    imagine if they dyed the river Liffey green or something

    I am. Well, it's actually the Cork to Dublin train as I had to change at Limerick Junction. Should be arriving in Dublin very shortly thankfully.
