Things you hate?

I really hate when i go into the bathroom to find a book of mine on the floor cos i know my bro's been reading it......there.I feel like burning it in a ceremonial mass for dispelling evil.Why would someone do that!!! But anyway....what do YOU hate??

Asuka

I hate pointless threads that have been flogged to death on this forum

i also hate cruel people on boards

Tha Gopher

I hate these parents,more often than not snobby D4 types,who after their 3 year old has rammed their car door into yours the parent doesnt even give as much as an apologetic smile.They just dont give a fcuk.Its not the kids fault seeing they are only young but the parents could have a bit of cop on.
I also hate telemarketers who call when you are in bed.Have had 3 this week.
People who,even though they are generally sound,take out their phone constantly to let everyone see them using it.And then scroll down the numbers in order to let you see how many people they know.The types who put things like POLICE and HOSPITAL in their list just to make it longer.Really pisses me off.And the problem has gotten chronic what with picture phones.
Politicians like Blair and Bertie who,no matter how many times they lie,have some fall guy waiting to take the flak when it looks as if they might finally be exposed.
When a tv show is postponed because of tennis or snooker or something overunning.

eew....slug juice

i hate people asking for money...i always end up giving it to whoever i feel most intimidated by, so i don't have any change by the time someone who looks like they might actually need it comes along

ie: when they hit your pockets to indicate thats where your money is...or when theres a few of them....or they won't go away..

seeing as there are new ppl joining boards all the time, maybe an old post is one they haven't seen, so I don't see any harm in bringing it up again.

I HATE!!!!!!

people who go on about the government when they decide to spend money upgrading our paltry meagre defence forces equipment, and then sit back while they order a shiny new f*ck off jet for themselves while cancelling our 5 badly needed new Search and Rescue helicopters, and cancelling plans for new trainer jet aircraft for the aircorps.

we have only 10,000 service men and women, we spend less than 0.2% GDP on defence and we should have an effective SAR capability which is sovereignly owned by the people of ireland not rented out like those 3 big red and white rescue choppers we are borrowing at the mo.

We should be able to defend our nation without depending on other countries to step in, we have no aircraft capable of intercepting anything faster than a seagul!!

we have no air defence missile or radar system capable of targetting and hitting anything above 10,000 feet,

we have not enough ships to defend the largest area of sea in europe owned by a single country

we have 8 naval vessels and no more.

we need more surveilance aircraft to catch illegal fishing and drugs smuggling,

we need more armoured vehicles and transport aircraft to fly people and equipment out to trouble spots in the world to support us when we are peacekeeping, as is we have to rent equipement from the UN armories of other countries.

I hate all of this and more, but im afraid most people here wont agree with me.

Morpheus,
I agree with you 100% !!!

It's a disgrace that the government are going to spend c.€70 MILLION on two new jets which are NOT required !

The current jet has a service life of at least anothe 10 years.
This jet, along with another jet (leased for six months), would be adequate for our EU Presidency term next year.

But, Oh no, Bertie wants 2 new jets to "swan around in" :mad:

And yet the contract for the 5 new Search and Rescue helicopters was cancelled last year due to "lack of funds"

I hate the way Bertie and his cronies are squandering our money !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't Ireland neutral? Why spend money on defence when we can leech off other countries...... surely it would be a better idea to soend the money on roads, rail etc...... instead of on jets, tanks, big METAL FÚCKING DICKS in the middle of dublin etc.....

Lump,
Yes, Ireland is neutral but so is Switzerland, Sweden and Finland and yet they have properly equipped defence forces.
The Swedes even have Stealth Warships - something even the Yanks don't have !

Now I'm not suggesting that Ireland should be spending enormous amounts of money on military hardware, but we should at least have a minimum level of defence equipment.

If we are a "mature" nation then surely we should be standing up for ourselves and not be "leeching" off other countries.

We don't even have a squadron of jets to patrol our airspace at present !!!

About 8 jets would be adequate - cost c.€70 million i.e the amount Bertie wants to spend on his new "Bertie Air Corps One" VIP jets :mad:

And yet Air Corps pilots are flying about every day in 40 year old helicopters !

I'm talking about a small (c.45 aircraft), well equipped Air Corps with modern aircraft.
(They currently have 35 aircraft of which 32 need replacement within the next few years).

It's all abou proper management.
The money for hospitals, roads, schools etc. AND defence would be there if the taxpayers money was properly managed.

Silvera.

Lump

Well, I'm not disagreeing that Ireland need to get the finger out..... look at the bloody port tunnel for crying out loud. Made a nice balls up of that didnt they. I do agree that Ireland needs to spend money on rescue helicopters etc, I dont think it is a major concern to spend money on fighter jets and all that. Get the country sorted first roads hospitals and all the rest.

It has to be said though that it was the irish people that voted the government in. We have no-one to blame but the majority of the people. Its not like this is the first term of the government. And I'm sure it could be dissolved if people really wanted it to happen.

There's only one thing I hate about summer - flies. Dirty bast*rds. Hate them. They land on dogsh!t/other such nasty stuff and later find their way into the house and land on everything. And the noise they make too. And it's just flies - wasps and bees I have no problem with 'cos they only land on jam and flowers and they won't sting unless you rile them.

Charlie McCreevy. The word incompetent just isn't strong enough. For example, Drop the VAT rate by a percent - OMG Charlie, what a genuinely good idea. But then the man copped that most shops didn't reduce their prices by anything, let alone 1%. So what did he do? He restored the VAT to its original rate, the net effect being that prices actually went up by another percent as shops that never reduced their prices then upped them. :mad:

Those gypsies with the baby that come up to you in town and say something (I've not figured it out, nor do I intend putting the effort into trying). If you're gonna come to a country to beg, at least have the courtesy to learn words like please and a few others.

Those appeal ads with the old woman and her dodgy, shaky voice. "Plehease help thehese peheople" bla bla. Trying to make people feel guilty. tsk :rolleyes:

Those "can I take 20 seconds of your time" and "I'm selling lottery tickets for bla" people. Where do I collect the prize if I win? "I'll be here next week". Yah riiiiiight!

I don't use Iarnród Éireann much, when I do it’s mostly Intercity Rail and beside the track improvements I’ve never had much problems with them.

Any how I do use Bus Éireann quite a bit and have no complaints but the condition of the odd bus and the fact they run two much so on time making me miss the bus

Actually technically we arent neutral and never have been.

In our constitution, we have a "neutral defence and foreign policy", its only policy and not law, I.E. we aint muckin around in other countries wars unless our own interests are at risk.

To be a grown up western neutral power we need our OWN defence, and its TIME irish people understood that.

I stated 0.2%GDP is spent on defence, I meant 0.9%, thats not a lot of cash, the gov probably blows more on printer paper in the DAIL in a year. TANZANIA, SAO TOME MOLDOVA and MAURITIAS are other places that spend that kind of money on defence, SWEDEN is neutral and spends 2.1% GDP, FINLAND spends 2% and is also neutral, FOR GOD's SAKE, Latvia spend 1.2% and they cant even win the EUROVISION! we are the laughing stock of europe.

NEUTRALITY works both ways, you dont need a big enough military to invade someone else,

but you DO NEED enough military to be happy and secure where you are,

we should be able to patrol our own skies without asking for the brits to help (which we do)

we should be able to rescue people at sea without asking the brits to help (which we do) or by renting choppers from a company at extortionate rates which we will NEVER own in the long run (which we do, see big red and white coastguard chopper??? not ours....)

we should be able to patrol the largest surface area of territorial seas owned by ANY other european power to stop drug smuggling, illegal fishing etc. YES WE DO own the most sea!! but we have the smallest EUROPEAN navy, 7 ships, which are all underpowered, underfunded and undermanned. Each time there is a storm and a fishing boat or merchant ship gets into trouble it is the Naval Service which is called to go to the rescue. Despite one of the largest territorial waters in the EU, we have one of the smallest naval services. One officer writing in An Cosantóir said that with just seven vessels, it is like the Garda trying to patrol the whole country with one patrol car.

We should have a large and well equipped enough army to take advantage of the economical job of peacekeeping in future beneficiary countries which when peaceful again will have built up a relationship with ireland and will in turn possibly invest here as they remember how we helped them, we are currently accepted by ALL UN partners to be the world leaders in Peacekeeping and we benefit by providing some of the best soldiers on the planet to do the worst jobs.

We currently train other UN countries in peackeeping every year, this is a lucrative business for the army and local towns where the peacekeepers are based. We should respect how our soldiers work long hard hours without the benefits of other civil powers like the gardai.

Im not looking to take cash from hospitals or roads, im looking to invest money in our SECURE future, we should encourage homegrown defence industrys, CORK shipyards should be used to build our own vessels, the plans are easily available for existing UN Standard vessels which could be produced in ireland, as could our Armoured vehicles.

Anyway, I HATE peeps who shoot down the army ranting about other ways to spend their money, believe me you would be surprised how much cash they DONT get. I wish i could paint a simple picture to irish people, but most dont believe we need any sort of military force, Im not talking huge, just a little bigger and better equipped.

Lets hope we NEVER pay for NOT having one.:(

A technicality. A sub might be referred to as a boat rather than a ship, but it's still a **** load of firepower sailing the seas.

And I think Sweeden only have one prototype.....but I could be wrong. The Royal Navy is also researching a stealth ship, and no doubt the US are too.
