    Some Fabreeze or similar ad on YouTube where some idiot is spraying some can of air freshener crap around his bathroom instead of opening a window, and then he's in the living room spraying all over the place while is family is there. Ridiculously stupid advertising.

    During my downtime at work, I've removed as many contacts as possible from my LinkedIn. It has responded by "suggesting" various peddlers of insipid drivel to make up the shortfall on my feed.

    I do not care for LinkedIn.

    A Nephew of my neighbour has moved in while she is in a nursing home, he has just gotten comfy enough to smoke the pot he was "prescribed" as part of his healing for his joint operation(horrible heavy smelling stuff) so I was smothered with it all last night(as it drifts into my bedroom as well)

    Eating breakfast, the smell of chips and chops frying drifted through the house, putting me off my breakfast. So now I'm still hungry, congested and tired.

    Ta'ed that the world either wants to stave or choke me via other ppl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Needing all these apps to get special offers in shops.

    It's not the data thing that annoys me.

    More so you hoping you don't forget to scan the app or trying to finding ot on your phone.

    Not to forget those who spend ages looking for ot at the counter.

    healthcare / fitness appointment later in the week. The practitioner in question is talented and diligent as to the hands on work they engage in. No complaints…Personality wise however they are all over the fućkin kip.

    I don’t mind so much if they were just a rude muppet, I’d know that going in, and adjust my expectations, however… February… in great form, enthusiastically sharing holiday tips, we go to some of the same places..they do their work and I pay, thank them, till the next time and I’m gone. May… moody, quiet, expressing dissatisfaction with an element of my health in a not too diplomatic fashion…instead of just remaining polite and professional and highlighting and fixing their concern.

    and it goes like that from appointment to appointment, has done for 4 years, you can never predict.

    All the Oasis fanboys practically jizzing themselves over the reunion announcement. I can't adequately convey how boring I find that band. It's going to be a long year.

    About to buy a brother laser printer. I had one before and it was great, was 10 years old and worked out of the box with linux, windows, Mac.

    But just looked at the negative reviews for the new printer and found that it doesn't support MacOS very well, and confirmed same on Reddit. No printer drivers. Have to print via some dodgy app, and the quality is awful.

    How can a printer not support a major operating system in 2024 ?

    After all this time. 🤣🤣🤣

    Passed through a town that had a big old drapery shop that had a lovely blue and gold mosaic facade dating back to 20s or 30s but now some euro shop outfit have taken it over and coveted it all up with gaudy plywood and vinyl. Is there anyone to complain to? The whole town is being uglified and generified year on year.

    People on the bus in puffa coats and scarves. I know it's raining but it's also 20 degrees, like.

    Waiting in Aldi queue for several minutes to buy a handful of items as there's generally just one till open, and the operator refusing to open a second till, even when the queue is quite long. Then when it comes time to pay with card, you can be randomly asked if you've enjoyed your shopping experience, yes or no(number 6 or 8 on the keypad).

    What really annoys me, is so many times the staff member will turn the screen around to themselves and ask me the question, or often will enter yes without even asking. I hate it, the screen is asking ME, not them. And I feel under pressure to say yes, even though it hasn't been a good experience, not least because of that. But I don't want to say anything because I shop there almost daily.

    And for the record, when I do get to respond myself on the rare occasion, I just back out of it by pressing X.

    This ambulance chasing little cockbag of a solicitor that keeps popping up on my TikTok feed. I’ve repeatedly told the TikTok algorithm that I have no interest in him but he keeps popping up with new videos.

    I very rarely withdraw cash from ATMs but today when I need some, it seems my card is faulty (fine for tap) grrrr

    In dublin today around Hardwick street, and seeing a woman picking through large domestic bins on the street looking for cans and bottles.

    Not sure if the most depressing part is that about a third of the content of the bin is now on the street, or that she had a colleague in training, a little girl of about seven to whom she was handing the slime covered treasure.

    Its so utterly sad to see little children involved in that.

    late lunch out… company I was with “ I need to put it back about 30 minutes I have to stop at a garden centre on the way and pick up compost “

    Pub is great, food, service, ambiance, costal views, staff all just the best, but the one thing which this individual knows since we go there… towards the last 30-45 minutes of the lunch service… they tend to run out of certain menu items….

    Get there, eventually, and predictably there isn’t a great choice left. 🙄 . My favourite…pepper burgers which are unreal, gone….

    Actually, what is a TA of mine is the puffer coat with shorts combo merchants.

    How the sweet fûcking thundering jeebus can it be cold enough necessitating that coat, but at the same time warm enough for shorts, someone explain it because…. a lad local around here and it’s his default ‘style’… dyed mullet, tache, puffer coat, shorts, converse low tops ( never with socks )… 😅

    People on Linkedin who hide their surnames (all you see is an initial like Stephen M.)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,636 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Yeah I'm wondering if they genuinely don't feel the cold on the bare legs at this stage or not.

    Reminds me of this, and hey if it works for herons…

    I have splits in the soles of my DM's work boots, so when I'm walking around they make meow sounds . . The noise is exactly the same as when our cats are hungry.
