    Nothing came up in the search for something like this, so I thought I'd start a thread.

    So, what pleases you?

    For me:

    The smell of freshly cut grass
    Popping bubble wrap
    A cider on a sunny day
    The smell of petrol
    The cold side of a pillow

    If you added "and I like to cut myself" to the end of that list you'd have quite the emo song.

    A blink of the hazards from someone that you let out in a traffic queue.

    seeing a traffic jam going the other way.

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    The smell of petrol for sure.
    Seeing the team you despise, lose on TV.
    Seeing MILFs with their daughters to prove they are, in fact, MILFs.
    When you're heading home on a Friday afternoon and a song that really gets you in the mood for the weekend comes on.
    When the weather becomes warm enough to wear shorts and possibly flip-flops.
    Walking through the pub door on your way to meet your mates.
    Dunking a cookie or biscuit in tea / milk and it not collapsing.
    Showers with Hot water coming from them.

    I'm easily pleased I guess.

    I love it when it's just a little cold on the way home as the evenings have gotten darker and looking at the sky when its orange and red, just these amazing colours, really beautiful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 174 ✭✭VenusPlays

    Gin and tonics in huge glasses

    Thinking you have finished your food but then finding you have some left 10 mins later.

    Makes me so damn happy finding that piece of chocolate on your lap or that bundle of chips hiding at the back of the bag after you think they're gone :o

    Listening in to foreigners and hearing them chatting filth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,699 ✭✭✭deathrider


    I couldn't smoke in my old house, and used to be up till about 4am each night. Nothing like standing at the front door having a quite smoke at that hour, especially in the winter when everywhere is covered in snow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,459 ✭✭✭Ledger


    A big open fire with a few lumps of turf thrown on.

    Waking up thinking you have to go to work and then remembering it's the weekend.

    Going to empty the dishwasher and realising someone already did it.






    and a good BJ of course. ;)

    Listening to the radio and some guy rang in with a story about a girl who was begging for food and he brought her to Dunnes and bought her some stuff after she told him some horrific life story and how her baby was sick. First she tried to fill the trolley with everything, then asked for more money after the guy bought her €30 worth of stuff for the baby. After they parted ways a store detective told yer man she was in the previous day with someone else buying food for her. Obviously a professional begger.

    Woman then rang in fuming about "those people". Host said "Well I dont know what you mean when you say "those people" I mean they are all human beings"

    She duly went off on a rant about foreign nationals when the host interrupted to tell her the woman in question was from Roscommon. She was stopped dead and hadnt a clue what to say. After stuttering for a bit she went ahead with her rant about Romanian beggars anyway regardless.

    But just hearing her little rant stopped dead and the confusion in her voice when she realised her little generalising rant was out of place was cringworthingly delicious.

    One of the little pleasures in life is hearing or seeing some over opinionated bint showing themselves for what they are when they are just too eager to spout a bit of hatred.

    Waking up for work, checking the phone and realising you have another few hours sleep before ye have to get up.

    Beating the expected arrival time on your sat nav.

    Waking up looking out the window and seeing a couple of inches of snow on the ground when ye werent expecting it.

    The first sip of a pint on a friday evening after you have had one of them weeks in work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    Waking up in the middle of the night, thinking its time to get up, looking at the clock and seeing thats its only 3am and you still have 4.5hrs before you have to get up.

    Stiff clean Levis straight out of the tumble drier.

    The smell of freshly cut grass.

    Finding money in coat/jacket pockets that you forgot about.
