    I hate when there are no matching pants left but yes, like others, I always buy 2 pairs so I am partly at fault :P

    People being overly friendly/unprofessional with me when I'm paying them for a service and I don't know them.

    In today's case, I never met the girl before but I'm picky and she comes highly recommended by other picky people. I arrived for my appointment, she explained she forgot to post a patch test to me but we can do the treatment anyway cause ill be grand. Big no no, but I was glad she was still going to do them (eyebrows) anyway. She moved onto my massage, and kept talking to me during it.
    But the final straw was during my waxing, she starts asking if my boyfriend appreciated my efforts waxing, telling me she's told friends that "men talk" about whether or not things are taken care of and that her friends don't mind having hair, except she was much cruder. I'm lying there being all like oh right, silently begging her to stop talking.
    I'm not shy and have had it done a load of times it's just a very vulnerable position to be in and having her critisise other women's choices.
    Then she starts belting on about a lady she had earlier that day who insisted wearing disposable underwear and how it was easier to get the "arse" without underwear. I'm not easily embarrassed but I was absolutely mortified.

    She asked me if my boyfriend would stay with me if I got "caught" except in holla-ease, it sounded like "cot". Then she starts telling me all about her rough sister in law, and how terrible she is as a mother so she disciplines the 4 kids and how one time she knocked one onto her back from a slap.

    I was absolutely horrified and I'm raging that she done such a fantastic job with everything so although she's a terrible mouth, she's good.

    Conflicting!

    I'd be like listen lady, shut your mouth while you're down there!!

    I can't even take hairdressers being chatty, so I go to a polish wan with 0 english. Tis great, apart from the few times she completely did the opposite to what I asked. :pac:

    That I cannot multiquote posts on the touch site.

    And freezing fitting rooms!? What the hell is that about! It was ridiculous!

    Had to go to another store but despite all obstacles mission complete! :)

    And no, there won't be any pictures.

    @ONW: yes I called! I need an advice in regards suspenders but I'll leave it for another shopping spree ;)

    The fact that I thought of a very trivial annoyance earlier today and now, for the life of me , I can't remember what it was.

    I often think of something I had to look up on Google and by the time I go inside I forget what it was.

    There's also something else I was going to post here...........no, it's gone!

    The absolutely ridiculous number of books this one girl in the library has on the table in front of her, there must be 30 of them! I'm annoyed enough that I've four with me.

    Rip off hotel prices in Ireland. I just googled the Shelbourne for a weekend in August, 657 euro, room only :eek: they can fcuk right off with that, I could go abroad for that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 664 ✭✭✭Flyer1


    Places that charge you more for your sandwich because you want it toasted. As if profit margins on this stuff isnt huge enough !

    The shelbourne... There's your problem right there! You'll get plenty of places for a quarter or third of that price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,530 ✭✭✭dub_skav


    You could also stay a week in bewleys.
    Hardly surprising that a luxury hotel on the green is expensive. That is not a rip off Ireland thing

    I agree that it's expensive, but they are known as one of Ireland's most exclusive and expensive hotels, you go there for a luxury treat, not value.
    For comparison i was looking at top London hotels recently, more expensive than that and no breakfast either :pac:

    Edit: complementary drink mind

    Reclining chairs that don't recline for normal people. My boyfriends couches are supposed to recline. The leg sticks out but to push the back down I have to get my feet against the leg thing, and push with strength I didn't even know I had. And then as soon as I stop lying back really strong, and try make myself comfy, it catapults me back up into an upright position.

    I think they were made for like strong wrestler type people.

    Try going in through LastMinute UK (not the cut and paste Irish version)... We often find it's cheaper
