Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

people who spend an inordinate amount of time getting ready in the mornings and who in the process monopolise the bathroom for about 30 minutes to the point I’m wondering if they are having their breakfast in there, odd.

I forgot to get naans with my takeaway . I can normally stretch it out to 2days with naans

Seeing the forecast I message the fam and asked them to put any washing or refreshing they wanted done into a laundry basket, knowing this is a foreign concept for some I message them twice more.

Wash went on Friday afternoon and came off the line on Saturday pm.

Late Saturday, there was more washing to be done in the machine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh dear lord, no. Batch loaf =/= naan.

Lesson learned: always have emergency naan in the freezer. Aldi do excellent ones.

My TA: the staff in Spar on Hanover Quay insisting that they can't sell wine until after 12.30 on bank holiday Mondays. Wrong, that's Sundays and St. Patrick's Day only, yis dopes. Would have suited me to grab it while I was out walking the dogs, but no, now I have to go back out later. I'll be going to a different shop, I can tell you!

I’ve done it before , while it’s not perfect , it does do the job . Though I do love batch bread

Cling Film :

That,

1. Doesn't. (cling)
2. That comes in a box so weak that it crumples under the strain needed to tear the film on the ineffective integrated cutter.

Very trivial…. but verrrry annoying.

Making an online grocery order, with the box clearly ticked for "No Substitutions" and they give you substitutes anyway.

Then you have to hand back the substituted items that you didn't ask for, and wait for a refund "in 5-7 days".

google business entries.

The opening times listed for a specialist sports equipment retailer Mon 09:00-19:00, but “June bank holiday might affect these hours.”

What good is ‘might’ ! it’s a 16 kilometre round trip…

I want to know until what time said business is open until, not when it might be open until.

Also I’ve attempted 3 times to call then… ages on hold each time without anyone picking up….

at about 2.10 am my neighbours get into their car and head off…my thought foolishly is ‘ ok, unusual , but maybe someone is working nights now. ‘ 🤪 they returned at about 5 am…. I’m woken by multiple slamming doors of said car in their driveway. The impression I have is that they are let’s say, all under the influence of something …. And other behaviours recently would corroborate that. What can be done about it is another thing. 😏

How is it "exercise" when I use a stair step to do step exercises, but according to the staff physio going up and down the 4 flights of steps at work isn't?

My TA is whatever bloody pollen is around this year, it is causing me to have a constant feeling of having a high temperature. My head is on fire and the antihistamines that I take all year round don't seem to be having any impact. The only break I have gotten from this feeling was when I went on holidays last month for a view days, felt great over there but this high temperature was back again the day after my return.

My ears are different heights. So my glasses are always wonky

Medical providers that ask you to check your cover with your health insurer but dont include the procedure or diagnostic scan code.

TAed that a new TA thread has started and I missed it. That was after of course me being TAed that I hadn't seen any good TA's recently because I though the thread had gone dry.

"Well if you really wanted that job, all you have to do is move"

Lady, we have 10k+ homeless (how do you not know this) tell me exactly the coordinates to where there is an available, affordable and liveable flat in the Dublin area.

So many ta's I can't even start. But I will, I have a thumping headache dealing with ppl like this.

The sheer number of candidate leaflets I've put straight into the recycling bin.

Has anyone, in the history of democracy, ever looked at one of these and thought, "Yes, this is exactly the type of gombeen I want representing me in Europe/on the council!"?

I also had a shinner try to corner me as I was leaving the house on bank holiday Monday ffs.

I have one of those. They just ignore it. It really annoys me.

Also people talking about birds . I don’t know the difference between most of them . Swallows , Thurshs ? I do remember working in a shed and mammy bird teaching baby how to fly . Basically drop baby from a height and make them flap

Fcuking doctors faffing about for 2 solid weeks on an operation on my 94 yr old grandmother. I understand the caution, she's incredibly high risk. But fcuk me, she's been left dosed up on high levels of pain medication for too long now. Just do the operation, we all know the risks.

Cornered last night by some leaflet droppers who had the candidate with them, candidate asked me if I could vote in the area(I cant) and if there were any outstanding issues about the community they should be aware of.

So I list off the domestic concerns ppl in the immediate area have told me about, these issues were brushed off as having been addressed in the "well-attended community meeting", the not at all ta is that the area is known for having elderly and hearing impaired individuals.

So solution to the problems in the area is to attend /speak at a meeting they wouldn't hear a word of, got it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should've told her STFU!!! 😀
