    When someone comes in and you're watching something......and they continue to talk over what you're watching!!!

    You give them big hints that they should shut up because you can't hear the TV and the f*ckers keep talking...

    Drives me mad......Hello, I'm watching Buffy, it's Friday night, get the fudge out!!!

    Quitting cigarettes can help a floppity phallus. Nothing helps a bad chip. :P

    Fast food places that blanch the chips and then cook them to order. They are a horrible, oily, soggy mess. It takes about two minutes longer to cook them from frozen but they taste much nicer.

    That sounds like a heavy p.m. and time to feed them LOTS of chocolate.

    snifflysnarkies? Is that some of your own work?

    That would have worked SO much better [or at all] had you not f--cked the quote function like a 61 year old merchant marine fumbling to get his condom on while his 25 quid lady of the night already fell asleep waiting for him to tear the packaging open.

    If YOUR own work is mangling forum codes you need to take anotjer 'masterclass' toots.

    That when I say "Hang on, and I will just pause this" then its "Oh, I didn't think you were watching"
    "Well yes, I was, that's why I paused it"

    I watched a film last night with Charlize Theron (she was in it, not with me) and I noticed she has feet like canal barges, but still very much floats my boat, so there:D

    Today I somehow forgot the first number of my PIN number. Turns out it is possible to bypass the PIN on some of those machines. The guy in the shop was also surprised
    Something simillar happened to me years ago. I'd come out of hospital and decided to go to the local shop instead of waiting for my husband to finish work and get what we needed.

    I hobbled up(wasn't supposed to be outdoors) and when I got to the till I had totally forgotten the whole pin number. I had to change it in the end and I never have remembered it. I blame the anaesthetic:D

    When I don't know what's going on with my parcel. I've got a parcel waiting in my local parcel motel depot. I ordered a couple of things last week, I didn't order anything to go to Parcel Motel, it was all to come to my house. The only thing I can think of is that I didn't change the shipping address. The thing is, that according to DHL, my parcel is still in England waiting to be shipped:confused:

    So either the DHL site is crap or I'm developing amnesia:(

    I remember alright you'd some trouble with stuff being delivered to or from Parcel Motel, about two weeks ago I think...

    That reminds me, I'd to order some computer parts there on Thursday, so I ordered from a site based in Ireland as it was just handier and I needed them quickly.

    A few minutes later I'd four emails from the company and one from this crowd - DPD. They might be worth a look when you're buying stuff online in future. I know when I'm ordering parts from Germany I can use DHL, UPS, FedEx, and I'd never heard of DPD before.

    Turns out this parcel was one that I cancelled about 15 minutes after I ordered it:mad:

    The last cock up was DPD. I had to open the parcel and check it before the driver left as the box had been opened and was basically mummified in masking tape. He said it had 'been all around the country'. That's the last time I'm using DPD.

    We take the mickey out of Americans, but they're shipping is far more efficient. I ordered a package from America on Wednesday, it's in England today. I ordered a package from a business in England on Wednesday and it still hasn't been despatched from their warehouse:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,387 ✭✭✭eisenberg1


    Pumpkinseeds, in my experience they are all much the same. As for USA, you will get just as many horror stories over there. They are all good when they get it right, but when they **** up....classic. I nearly went nuts a couple of weeks ago with UPS, the sheer frustration.....and they guy I eventually could not have given less of a **** about my problem. "We value your custom" you do in yer bollox.

    Wet plastic!
    Wet plastic bags, I hate the feel of them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,341 ✭✭✭czechlin


    When people say that you can't plan your life and follow it with 'Where do you see yourself in 10 years time?" question. Eh are you listening to yourself!?

    And 'Where do you see yourself in x years?' question in general. Ah just bugger off already!

    All these really annoying illegal taxi ranks all the dickhead taxi men have created wherever they feel like. Blatantly blocking up busy traffic but they don't care.
    Prime examples are at the end of south king street, back of Stephens green and at the bottom of grafton street, where the porter house is!
    I've just seen one particular dick clog up traffic while he does a 3 point turn on Nassau st. He then pulls up at the end of one of these illegal ranks totally blocking the bus and other traffic coming behind.
    Why is there nothing done about this?

    I never pick up a taxi at an illegal rank.

    Phew! If I was a Native American they would probably call me 'the one with chocolate in her hair'! :mad:

    Anyway the mix of goodness is in the oven now, it'd better be good.

    As long as there's none of your hair in the chocolate it's all good. I hate it when I get a hair in my food! :(

    The Aldi ads. Especially Valerie from Portaington who talks like a traveller about the price of the skirt and top for the young one dancing.
