False information. I've always been led to believe there's an outrageous amount of calories in alcohol. So imagine my surprise after an entire weekend of binge drinking, I'm 4lbs lighter than I was on Friday.

You didn't eat much, did you? Go on you can tell us, we won't tell anyone that you lived on booze all weekend.:D

Supposedly bright people too. Between that and 'alot' I could explode. I know people know that's wrong, it's just carelessness and laziness much of the time. :mad:

Alot and allot
and "yay or nay"

If they did know it was wrong it wouldn't bother me quite as much

Yea. I've even seen 'alittle' and 'shoe-in' instead of 'shoo-in'.

Some days it doesn't bother me but I'm seeing a huge amount of carelessness today, and that MAJORLY trivially annoys me!

I'm hardly a grammar nazi but people who mix up "effect" and "affect" and "than" and "then" need a good smack of a senior infants English reader

People who pick up dog **** and put it in a bag and then hang the bag from a feckin tree or just leave it on the ground. I went for a run today and there were bags all over the park, it's just disgusting!

I use E45 and it's absorbed quickly, so no sticky sheets.

I walked into town and am having a quick pint before I head home. There's a family of howiyas in here. Their dad/grandad was buried today so clearly it's an afters for a funeral.

They're currently having a sing song, they're belting out caledonia and one of them is after yelling out that "yoggi yoggi yoggi aye aye aye!" Thing scobies yell over skanger beats at a rave.

Seriously, wtf? Have a little bit of respect FFS

And also people who shush the pub so some drunken fool can sing a bad version of a bad song, I'm going to wait til he's into it before making a loud phonecall.

Our hick next door nightmares do this at the end of every party. Christmas night is dreadful for it. What is it with muck savages and their rebel songs? All the ones living abroad come back for Christmas and end up in their house Christmas night. I don't get it, you come back from America or Australia to see your family and you spend that night getting hammered in someone elses house.

My moms obsession with knowing inane, irrelevant information.

A prime example was this morning.
I slept at my parents house (more convenient for my work commute, only on Sundays) last night and overslept this morning. I was in a massive rush, scrambling around trying to get myself out of the house. My mom was upstairs putting washing away when I left the house.

I came back within 5 minutes, having realised I had forgotten my phone. By now I was dead late. I'm running in the hall when I hear a beckoning from upstairs. "WhiteRoses? WHITEROSES?!?!?". Yes, I replied. "Come upstairs to me, quick!".

I ran up the stairs thinking there was an emergency of some sort. "What did you forget, what have you come back for?" she replied.

I thought I was going to explode. Probably seems like an overreaction but she always does this at inappropriate times. I have no problem humouring her when I'm not late for work, I love her dearly but she drives me mad!

Don't get me wrong, I love a good rebel song, bitta Sean south? What harm but Jesus. Perspective people. I know the day we buried my dad the last thing I was in the mood for was a sing song.

I sometimes wonder if they sing the rebel songs because my husband is English, surely people can't be that ridiculous:D

Got a letter in the post today with a big red stamp on it saying: FINAL BILL NOTICE.
Open it up and inside a letter with the heading: Thsi is your final notice for electricity bills, we're cutting you off!

Turns out it's spam mail from prepaypower.ie but what a scummy way to promote a business.
I can imagine there were a lot of confused elderly people worrying when they got that in the post this morning.

My English wife has hidden my Luke Clancy CD. She hates that type music with a passion. For shame.

My father in law is English and he has loads of it. He used to play it a lot when we visited. I think they just assume we all love it, I know he loves it. Until they got to know me they used to get me lots of Irish themed birthday/Christmas presents. I remember the locket with the Irish saying engraved on it and the obligatory Father Ted dvd I got from them one Christmas.:D

It'd be water off a ducks back to my husband, he's very laid back and I couldn't give a good god damn what they think or do.:D

Trivially annoyed I'm emotionally broken when it comes to interacting with people, but my puppy walks all over me. He won't eat from his bowl, so I'm hand feeding him. This meant I was touching liver with my bare hands feeling it squish and slide through my fingers, oh god.

He sits with his little face pressed up to the glass in the shower door which unnerves me but he looks so forlorn when I shoo him out.

He stands at my bedroom door peeping around it, I pretend I don't see him but he stays in the same spot, ears up, just staring. He's not allowed in my bedroom, he knows this, but I feel so bad telling him no because he just wants to be with you at all times. So, now my bedroom door is closed, he's outside the door scraping on it wondering why he's on his own

Because I have no willpower, I'm about ten seconds from getting up and bringing him into bed like a baby because I can't bear the thoughts of him being sad.

But he's playing me. Ahh
