    Thank God I don't suffer from them, but one of the girls told me :)

    I just popped into the canteen there for a drink of water. There, I find that someone has reloaded the stack of plastic cups in the water-cooler. Upside-down. What kind of a distracted, beetle-headed knobjockey would, could, do such a thing?? Nnnnnnnnnnyyaaaaaaaaaagggghhhhh!!! :mad:

    When your stupid mains connected smoke alarm starts beeping at 5 in the morning.
    When you haven't a clue why because it's got electricity going to it, so start panicking and checking sockets and the rest.
    So you're there, half naked running around sniffing every room, with this thing beeping.
    Stupified because you were in a deep sleep, Panicking because it's so loud and you're alone, and it's probably after waking the neighbours.
    Googling like a lunatic, and there's my answer.
    Why the fcuk is there a battery in my stupid, mains alarm and why the fcuk does it start to go at 5 in the stupid morning?
    Then you tear the knuckle off yourself trying to open it!

    People who use those 'Please consider the environment when printing this email' logos under their email contact details.
    They print out in green. Hows that for considering the environment!.

    Argos catalogues (two per house, why?) left outside every house in the estate yesterday. Two more heavy catalogues destined for the recycling bin.

    People who put up facebook status' the minute they find out someone dies

    Why the fvck do some people not respond to a message. Be it email, text or even voicemail.

    This rant is really about concluding a discussion with someone.
    (someone with unlimited texts in my case)


    I mean the times when you've already been in contact with them, maybe setting up some situation or doing business, generally trying to get sht done.

    A conclusion is the end goal, any conclusion, good or bad - what you get is just this sense of eternal waiting.

    If they could just confirm in some tiny tiny way that they got the information, that there is a plan agreed, and that they didn't lose their phone or get kidnapped or suddenly decide to travel to Thailand and not tell you.



    An 'ok' is perfectly acceptable, two letters is fine.

    Even a 'no fvck off' is grand.

    It could be something like this

    Text.
    Person a: I'll meet you about 6
    Person b: Cant make it there before 8
    Person a: Right Ill probably be there around 7:00

    Person b : .............(nothing)...........


    Person a (to self): does this non-response mean yes or no. Should I go for 7:00, and wait for an hour wasting time, or go for 8:00 and find they've waited for an hour.


    Thats just a made up example. But its happened with other things, like I said to one person in an email regarding a business decision that we'd been communicating on back and forth over a couple of days, something along the lines of 'heres my offer let me know by Saturday'.


    Haven't heard back from him. (highly unlikely he didn't get the message - on his phone)


    A normal person would say something like 'ok' or 'no chance' or 'talk later'.

    Just fvcking something.

    (even 'k' would have done, as in 'ok', 1 letter is perfectly sufficient)

    ('k' says things are going as planned, I haven't thrown your offer in the bin, I haven't long forgotten about you, you're not planning something which is never going to happen and just to prove it I'll send you a whole 1 letter response with my hard worked thumb cause ah I suppose you're worth it, just this one time.)


    Its the email/text equivalent of two people talking on a phone, one says 'ok look have to go' and then the other person just hangs up or drops the phone on the ground in a Dougal style and walks off.


    What I mean is that

    I recently put this very point to my brother whos a repeat offender of this and was told "thats because i have a family, kids and a busy life as a consequence and you havent. You have too much time on your hands to be considering all this".
    Im saying to myself ''True....but still!''.

    It's even worse when they put it up for one of their close relatives, worse still when they put rip. Like Rip uncle:confused: Fecks sake, so tacky, what do they think is the point? It's not like the dead relative is going to be checking out Facebook :rolleyes:

    Buying a coffee in the shop. €1.65

    Checked my change first, actually had exactly €1.64 so I said "Can I owe it to you?"

    No you can't I was told, fair enough, so I handed over a €50.

    "Have you nothing smaller?" The shopkeeper asks!!

    GTF ya tight hoor :eek:

    Meh, as long as it's not some obvious like-whoring I'm alright with it.. It's the same as putting it down in the newspaper to let others know imo, except it doesn't cost 100 euro to put it on Facebook :pac:

    Service charge for "parties of six people or more" - why? Don't you make more of a profit the more people are in the group?
