    Visitors that aren't invited to dinner etc., but invite themselves around for a four to five hour visit. I mean seriously, wtf.

    Who is that lacking in awareness to impose themselves on somebody that long for a "visit" or is either that ignorant that they don't give a fuk?

    Useless b..ankers....

    Got a vaguely threatening email from the bank last month about an unpaid bill. Now they actually owe us money - a lot more money than the bill - but the left hand can't talk to the right, so we started off with an automated email. After a bit of back and forth, I filled out the form to pay the bill and returned it to them.

    This month - exact same email. So it's likely nobody is running any checks on these emails before they're sent, and/or the guy from last month never submitted the form. The threats from the last email must also have not been carried out, because if they were, the bill would have been paid. There's also been sod all acknowledgement of the money they owe us or any kind of effort to help us with getting paid.

    I probably can't name the bank for legal reasons, but I'll give you a hint - they sponsor a rugby team.

    So I'm going to play useless b..anker bingo! I'm betting :


    B ) Whoever replies to my email will be completely unaware of last month's communications.

    I ) They won't be able to find the form from last month.

    N ) There'll again be no acknowledgement of the completed form being returned.

    G ) There'll again be no effort to assist us - just to collect their bill.

    O) They'll again not carry out their second 'threat', which deducts the bill from our balance, and presumably resolves all remaining problems.


    And for a super bonus I'm betting they send the same email again next month.

    Treviso airport and its lack of seating in departures- having to pick fights with clowns who think their luggage deserves a seat.

    I grew up in a house like that where some people (several!) could walk in any time of the day and be entertained/ fed for hours. Usually tight as a gnats chuff with their hands hanging too. Stinking the place up with BO and fags.

    Now I've my own place, if you want to visit me message me first to see if I'm home. I'll decide if I want to see you / suggest a better day. I'll forgive the hanging hands if you do that ! A product of my upbringing. Introversion too.

    I told my hyper-religious(RCC) sib of a conversation I had with a Muslim man about the vagaries of Irish English, which the man didn't understand and was getting him into trouble at work. The man sent me a text saying he and his family would pray for me in thanks.

    While I'm not religious myself ppl sending positivity my way is always appreciated. Sib told me I shouldn't be talking to strange men or accepting prayers from foreigners.

    What ta'ed me was that a lovely gesture shared with the intent of lifting the mood was twisted to this.

    This ta as well.

    Sign in local car parks, with opening hours M-F 8.30-18.30, Sat-Sun 9.30-19.00, goes to ticket machine as the 24-hour clock was a problem.

    The machine says the Payment Period is 8.30-18.30, it was then 19.45 and they are complaining the machines won't take their money and when I explain that parking is free after 6.30, its brand new information to him and how did I know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have started a new job which requires me to get used to the earlier start time, so my aim is I want to be in bed before 10PM. Everyone in my family knows this.

    Just as I was tucking into bed at 9.45 last night, I got a phone-call from my dad, and immediately thought it was an emergency. Why ring a fella you know is likely in bed and up early?

    A cousin had decided there and then was a perfect time to go visiting, and of course dad simply had to pull out the red carpet because he is American. I last saw this particular cousin only a month ago anyway. Who visits anyone on a whim after 9PM?

    I went spare on the phone.

    I have a neighbour who does that . Ceilí's around the neighbours at about 10.30 ,11o'clock at night. He's a farmer so has no travelling to work and starts whenever he wants. And takes tae and buns at every house.

    Something a bit wrong with people cheering on, making jokes and memes about some human beings facing slow, cold, lingering deaths in a metal coffin on the bottom of the sea and excusing that because one of them is a billionaire.

    im not having a very nice evening / morning trying to sleep.

    im dropping off 25 minutes ago when a vehicle pulls up outside, parks with the engine running and is there for 5 - 10 minutes.

    its a people carrier taxi, as my neighbour leaves their front door, the driver starts a conversation from him, positioned by the vehicle curb side to her at her door in a loud shouty not two fûcks given megaphone Eastern European accent. He is basically shouting at her from 15 meters away at 5 am in a residential area, I had jumped up to see what the commotion is as it initially sounded like a row such was the tone and they continue the conversation in the street and after around 40 seconds she gets in…..

    youd want to be some sort of a fûcking ginormous moon goon fruit n nut fûckwit to stand in the street, shouting at a person at just after 5am in a residential area, when in a handful of seconds she is in your vehicle and you can speak directly, calmly and without causing any noise pollution with your big humongous Pat Roach melon head….. complete with bin lorry powered gob…….

    People, still… people…. Always…. Never a problem in this life caused by an oil painting, cat, dog, frog, piece of furniture, book, table tennis table, or other inanimate object….. people…. They’d want to start making better ones !

    Furniture may be an issue... ever stubbed your toe?



  • Registered Users Posts: 25,293 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Nope, but I did trip over some luggage, it was an open and shut case…

    That's trolley tragic... :pac:

    The amount of energy used, stuff consumed and noise and waste produced by us from about 7 am for work purposes ...

    I'd say 50% of it is of zero use or even negative use. And people are lead down paths and conditioned to do this useless work from their late teens.

    And, in a crisis, we can't do the work is is required. Like plant and pick crops, look after the sick and elderly, build houses, innovate, play the saxophone, ...

    I sprinkled way too much hot sauce onto my meatball curry and chips yesterday eve which set off a short but violent spell of hiccups. I also had a tea towel on my lap to stop my beige chinos from getting stained with curry, yet somehow a small piece still managed to fall off my fork and land right on the tiny spot of my chinos that was uncovered by the tea towel.

    Also, I have an extremely itchy little spot right inside the top of my bumcrack for the past two weeks.

    I will never complain about our traditional cold damp weather ever again. Not built for this heat. And with climate change it will only get hotter here more than likely 🥵
