Mr FelineOverLord made a classic school boy error this morning. My hairdresser also cuts his hair and after his haircut he proceeded to tell me that she's lost weight, and was wearing a very 'sheer' dress.:rolleyes: Never, never, EVER tell your spouse that someone younger and slimmer than they are is looking very well, it just doesn't end well.:D

My poor long suffering wife would concur. Worst are the 'Do you think she has had a boob job?' statements.

When someone says "Awesome". And they are Irish. (oops)

Come on... it's brilliant, magic, mad, whatever, but NEVER awesome.

Too much watching US stuff I suppose. But come on, we are who we are, let's not dilute it with AWESOMENESS..

Get's me right TA'd

My place of work is advertising heavily at the moment and it's wrecking my Friday buzz. Have seen the ad about 5 times since I switched on the telly a couple hours ago.

Out of sight out of mind is just not possible! !

Someone I know just posted 10 near identical photos of a fountain on snapchat. It's obviously not that impressive if you have time to take loads of pictures of it. :rolleyes:

When you choose a cafe based on excellent reviews and it turns out to be crap. We had breakfast yesterday in a cafe that had great reviews and I was disgusted by the place. No light and fluffy scrambled egg for me, oh no. What I got was a puddle of half raw slop on a plate, 2 bog standard frozen veggie sausages that are available from any supermarket and a half cooked tomato that had been doused in ground black pepper in an attempt to disguise the fact that it wasn't cooked properly. I don't even like black pepper. Mr FOL's toast was so undercooked that it turned to mush when buttered. FFS, what kind of incompetent twat can't cook something as basic as egg, tomato and toast

:mad:

I was all set to complain as we'd left most of it on the plate, there was no way I was eating that egg, but some wan' had her kids running around the place and I'd already had one of them bump me in the abdomen. Plus I was still peeved at my husband over his tactless earlier comment.:D

Getting ready to leave the country in a few hours, severely ticked off that I never made that list of things I need to remember last time that I always swear I'm going to make.

Am I going to make it this time? Feck no, I'm busy packing. Sure I'll remember it all next time.

bonzodog2 · 29-08-2015 12:28pm

When you're walking down a road, approaching a junction and a car is coming and indicating to turn. You stop walking so they can make the turn, and they stop (to let you cross the junction). I stopped so you don't have to. Worse when they do it on a main road. Grrrr.

Smug tossers from school/college who married early in life and are now separated.

People with double-barrelled names.

A few girls who I went to school with are now married and a few days after the wedding they changed their names on Facebook.

Out of 8 of them who were married, 6 now have double-barrelled names.
So instead of it being (e.g) "Lisa Smith", it's now "Lisa Smith-Murphy" or instead of it being "Ciara Ryan" it's now "Ciara Ryan-King".

Feck off.

Heckler · 29-08-2015 1:42pm

Must have been mentioned before. People who pull into a petrol station and park at a pump and then get out, don't get petrol and saunter off into the shop for whatever. Especially worse when its a garage with a big forecourt where there's plenty of parking away from the pumps. ****.

fussyonion · 29-08-2015 1:55pm

People putting chopped onions in the fridge.
It doesn't matter how tightly-sealed the container is, don't put onions in the fridge.
Bloody stinks.
And now my jelly smells of onions. Bang goes dessert.

My wife has her name double-barrelled on social media, and I initially passed it off as pretentiousness, but that didn't make any sense as my wife isn't the pretentious type, so curiosity getting the better of me I asked what's the deal with that?

"It makes it easier for my friends to find me on Facebook"

I was sorry I asked :pac:

Perhaps you should have been more fussy about not storing a chopped onion in the fridge.

I had to do it.:pac:

Bloody computer speakers are crackling, really irritating. Plugging them out and back in isn't working.

Do people sneak into your house to do this?

Being asked "where are the eggs / bread / coffee etc"? when I'm in a supermarket - just because I'm wearing a shirt and tie.

Just tell them to "fcuk off, I'm on my break". See what happens.

The over analysis of sport on TV.

We have at least 30min before the game, then hour afterwards (you can double these figures for sky's super Sundays).

And when it all boils down to it, most is irrelevant as humans make mistakes and don't always play well, that's the nature of sport on all levels, it happens to even plebs like me and you. Sometimes I can play a great game if footy, score with every shot, other days couldn't hit a barn door. It's the way it is.

So why analysis every single goal and say this guy should have done this or that. If they all did as the analysts said, games would be nil nil as there wouldnever be a mistake.

Latest example, the great Paul O'Connell talking after today's defeat to Wales, saying we didn't execute as we would have liked to. So why didn't they? Simple, because you can't always perform to the highest level no matter how much you plan or try to.

You beat Wales one week, lose to them the next, that's sport, because one team can be great one week and not so great the next

Rym Shanley · 29-08-2015 9:21pm

Man of the match being decided before the game finishes.

Why not wait until after?

I'm not a fan of double-barrelled names but I'd forgive females having their maiden name and their married names on Facebook for the reason that it's easier for people to find them, so long as there's no hyphen. Using your example, Ciara Ryan-King=bad, Ciara Ryan King=good.

The double-barrelled name shouldn't be used in the real world. I worked with a lad who added his wife's surname to his own.

I don't know why, but for some reason whenever I'm walking around in a hospital people just assume I'm a doctor, maybe it's my resting bitch face.:D

FelineOverLord · 30-08-2015 10:23am

OK, I need a bit of a vent. People who disturb your sleep on a Sundays morning, yes SKY, I know we're having an engineer come out on Wednesday, but there really is no need to text me at 8am on a Sunday morning to remind me of that.

I thought that was bad enough, only for fookwit and friends to arrive back at 9.30am pilled up from wherever they were last night. 2 fooking car loads of the pilled up bastards and I can hear them babbling away so fast they sound like horse racing commentators. Those idiots need a big mug of go the fook home to your parents house and sleep it off. Now where did I leave that AK47?

I have a double barrelled surname because my mother didn't change her name when she got married. I don't see why a guy wouldn't take his wife's name???

That never happens to me because I turn off my mobile phone when I go to bed.

NIMAN · 30-08-2015 5:23pm

Agree about the double barrelled names.

They sound particularly bad when the 2 surnames are a Mc, an O or similar.

And then some folk have a double barrelled first name too.

What about Marie-Loiuse O'Doherty - Mc Laughlin.

Why is it that whenever you're in a rush, the time flies by, but when you're not going anywhere, time stands still?!

I'm going out soon and my wet hair is still in a towel, I haven't a scrap of make-up on, I haven't eaten and I have no idea what I'm wearing.
I'm meant to be leaving the house in an hour!

FelineOverLord · 30-08-2015 6:35pm

Seeing the first signs of Christmas in the supermarkets. Last week the tins of biscuits appeared on display this week the snazzy coffee machines are sitting on the top shelves. It's still August, only just, but still.

Have a long list of them mounting up during the day, but as soon Boards.ie is in address bar it is a "delete memory" job in brain.
