AllInOne

when I can hear people chewing their food and then swallowing it, once i notice it I cant stop hearing it, it drives me insane then I haveto leave the room haha!

almostnever

People who openly stare at you. *shudders*

I hate when you tell someone to maybe stop drinking because their falling all over the place. I hate when they then call you a square. I hate when you have to carry them into a taxi(and when I say carry I mean carry, as in Harry pulling Dudley after the the death eaters attack them). I hate when the person decides to get sick all over you and your new top and jeans. I hate when her stupid ass mother gives out to you when it wasn't your fault.

I'm not even that friendly with this girl. She hasn't even text me today to maybe apologise or thank me for getting her home. Not that I need to be thanked for these things but Jesus I feel like a ****ing idiot now, she must really think I'm a doormat. SHE GOT SICK ON ME:(



Last night was rough.

My supervisor for the JC was ridiculous, when he got his stupid biscuits and tea he chewed with his mouth open and was banging his little spoon around in the cup before slurping his tea and getting it all over his 'stache
It was feckin ridiculous (and gross), every exam :L

Panda you're a hero.

When people say thing,whatchacallit and yoke in the same sentence.I get it when you can't think of a word it happens to me a bit.

but dad said this to me today:
"Get me the thing"[ I assumed he meant spanner]
me:"Which one?"
"The one on the whatchacallit,at the yoke there"
me:"This one?" *showing spanner*
"Not that one you tool,the other yoke there next to the thing over there"[he never pointed or gestured]
{swearing removed to clarify a bit}
I mean seriously,you can use SOME adjectives at least,throw me a bone here

Some more additions...

-Trying on clothes in a shop.
-The word 'yerra'.
-People getting married in a church despite not being religious in the slightest. (same applies to funerals and christenings to a certain extent)
-Guys who wear those t-shirts with buttons running halfway down the front of it. Bonus points if those buttons are actually left open.
-People who leave their vicious dogs to run around the estate and terrorise me when all I want to do is walk to the fúcking shop.
-Being hassled in a shop when you just want to have a look.

All of these, especially the last one, mainly because I know better than anyone else what the **** I'm in there for, if anything.
On that note, salespeople who either don't know what they're talking about and are just trying to confuse you with technical jargon, or who DO know what they're talking about and are just plain stretching the truth.
Pro tip: Listen to what salesmen tell people next time you're in any shop with salespeople getting a commission, note that the more uncomfortable the buyer seems the more obvious it is that what they're being told is bull****.

As for

I don't like it either, but unfortunately we don't live somewhere you can get away with not being religious, if you have a secular marriage people will find it weird, and Christenings and Funerals aren't for the people involved, they're for people's relatives.

You'd be surprised how much it means to relatives.

I don't really plan on ever having kids/getting married so needing to cooperate with parents in that respect seems unlikely.

If I die tomorrow, I would very much like to not have a catholic funeral for a variety of reasons (General life philosophy/atheism/integrity, nothing to do with the church's *ahem* idiosyncrasies), but I do understand that having a Catholic funeral would help a good chunk of my family grieve. Still would prefer it my way though.

foothhurl

I agree with that point I know a few couples who tied the knot or the past number of years to keep family members happy....

Davidius

I've made it perfectly clear that I don't want a Catholic funeral if I die as they tend to not involve being launched into space.

My mother once suddenly proclaimed to me the following after I told her of my intention not to get married in a religious sense, if of course marraige is to ever occur but anyway

"I hope you get married in the cathlolic faith! and baptise your children in the catholic faith! and raise them in it!"

While it would be a problem for some of my relations, I dont see why I should have to take such serious decisions (not being selfish about it) just to appease them. I wont have my kids brought up in a faith either- I wouldnt wish it upon anyone to be part of a kiddy-fiddling organisation (Sorry if thats harsh!), people without religion tend to be far more independent and grounded in life. If they were to partake in a religion of their choosing later in their lives I'd be in support of that, but in no way forceful.

It's not as harsh as it sounds >_>

But I have essentially told my mother that as soon as I'm entirely independent of them (I cant afford to be now) her interference in my life/decision making process is over.......

Pygmalion

My mother is kinda grand with me and brother not being religious at all, but she seems to hate most churches anyway (despite having strong faith and all), basically of the opinion that there is a God, but that he's really nice, and cares more about how people live their lives than what they believe, what their sexual orientation is or anything like that.

I have really religious relatives though (Aunts mainly), to the extent they've pretty much ruled out their children going to schools they don't see as "religious" enough.
From what I've heard from my mother they're pretty close-minded and racist too, and it definitely wasn't her just bad-mouthing them because she generally gets on well with them, and doesn't have anything really against them.

Kinda weird, seeing as they're both from the same upbringing and both have strong faith, yet they turned out pretty much the exact opposite in terms of what they actually believe.

I have to agree to a certain extent,I'd like to get married in a church and have a catholic funeral,but I lost any faith I had years ago.For my parents if anything,tradition and all that.

But,I'll say it now and I mean it,if something happens to me and I die,it's my funeral,I want rock music and "Somewhere over a rainbow" played while everyone whines about what a pr*ck I used to be,I get the whole reverance for the dead,but come on don't lie about me.

KnifeWRENCH

I would prefer not to have a Catholic funeral but if I die young then it's probably what will end up happening simply because it's the done thing. I guess since I'd be dead, I wouldn't care so much.

Also I don't plan on ever having kids but if I do, they're not being baptised or being brought up with any organised religion.

As for marriage - meh. The whole concept of marriage is something I'm not pushed about anyway; I don't need a piece of paper and an overpriced party as long as I'm happy. But if I ever was to get married, it wouldn't involve any religious aspect. If my family don't approve, then they don't have to be there. I honestly don't think they'd care though.

I'm not trying to start a fight here or turn this into a religion debate but some of the above posts have reminded me of something I was giving out about last weekend. The labelling of the Church as a whole as bad and referring to all priests as paedophiles pisses me off no end. I have grown up around several priests who are some of the kindest, most genuine, lovely and helpful people I know. They cannot do enough to help the people of this parish, be they elderly, grieving after a death or just contributing to community events. I have such respect and admiration for one of them, who has been especially kind to my family, that it makes me so angry when I hear people make such generalisations in the media or among my group of friends. It's just tarring all priests with the one brush. Yes there are the bad ones, and God were they bad, but that doesn't mean every priest is. Some are genuinely lovely men, fulfilling their roles in the way they should.

The labelling of anything as a whole drives me mad these days. It usen't to bother me so much and, obviously, there are some that are, generally speaking, true for a large majority of which ever type of people your talking aobut.

Recently, however, my entire family are driving me mad with what is basically racism against travellers (if travellers were a race that is). Yes, it's probably true that on the whole they are a rougher, less educated society. That does not mean that ever traveller is the scum of the earth who is out to rob your house and rape your daughter.

It is the exact same as discriminating against someone because of their race/religon etc. which we all know is wrong. But travellers are different apparently...
