    Vindictive people.

    They wear me out with their petty nitpicking and small minds.

    Actually that's not trivially annoying, that's massively annoying.

    Cheap zips on jeans, especially when you first zip up a fresh pair of jeans and you're afraid to pull the zip too hard in case you bust it.

    I don't have to worry too much about that. All the fecking jeans are hipster jeans so I just pull them up and down without unzipping once I've pulled them on the first time :D

    I wear trousers with zips now, but when I used wear jeans (Levis, weren't cheap, just cheaply made!), the zips were forever bursting on me, until I discovered button flies! At least you can button them back up when they pop :o

    Do you ever have one of those days where everything that could go wrong, goes wrong?

    I was up at half 5 because I had an exam and a presentation and was trying to do some last minute cramming, so it was never going to be a good day. I'm so toyered. :(

    I don't like spiders, they terrfiy me. If they keep to themselves and stick to their own little corners, it's all fine and dandy. I got into the shower this morning and spotted this big mutha****a in the corner of the bathroom. I kept saying to myself 'Be grand, he'll just chill there, I'll stay here, it's all cool'.
    But of course, no, the spider was all like 'Oh hai, I see you're in the shower, I think I want to be in the shower too. Do you mind if I join you? Just hold on a second and I'll run over to you with my big long hairy dangly legs. I literally won't be a second. BOO! Honey, I'm hoooommmmeee. Loookkk at us showering together, we soooo coo'. ' :mad: I never got to condition my hair.

    And day just got progressively worse....
    Left the house without my notes and had to go back for them. Just about got to college and bam, fcuking flat tyre!!

    Exam was a total and utter fcuking disaster. I don't know what the lecturer was thinking but he threw in some stuff not in the notes or in any extra reading recommendations. Why would you do that? Why? :mad: Oh and total changed the format of the exam from previous years.

    Halfway through the day I broke my shoe. Whole bottom fell out of the shoe and then the heel broke off. And then it fcuking rained heavily and my foot got soaked. Stupid broken shoe, stupid rain. Grrr.

    I changed my wheel anyway, but my spare is facked and I'm supposed to be driving to Wicklow tomorrow so I was trying to get to the garage before it closed at 6. I swear to god, every single traffic light on the way home went red on approach. The fcuk??!! And it seemed there was a higher level of morons on the road then normal. I didn't make it in time. :( So now I'ma have to get up early tomorrow and hopefully get the puncture fixed.

    Fcuk you Universe. :mad:

    Poor Christy :( That was a very bad day.

    Get yourself a nice big mug of hot chocolate or horlicks, get yourself into a nice warm bed and watch a movie or surf for a while and have a nice long sleep.

    Everything will look a bit better in the morning and everything looks better after a sleep anyway.

    Tomorrow will definitely be better than today, I promise. :)

    You know those rings for house / car keys? Put the ring through hole of the zip puller, pull your jeans and zip up, and then loop the ring over the button; then button up your jeans. The ring will keep your zip up.


    Maybe I should share this with that bloke from Skerries who jammed his Jolly Roger

    When it takes you so long to type your reply that your session logs out. Of course, you're not made aware of this until you hit the reply button and by that time it's too late. You've lost your reply!!!

    Conductors of orchestras, I mean wtf, waving and jumping about, not hardly a one looking at him, they are all reading sheet music, WHY ARE YOU THERE? Usually hairy geeky looking feckers too. Makes me want to pull my toenails out with pliers and then dip them in vinegar, failing that I just turn over the station. But it really upsets my day.

    Having to get denture cleansing tablets out of the tube when they've rotated inside the tube.
    Sorry mam, you're gonna have to brush your dentures twice in the morning.

    Are they like a tube of smarties that when you've eaten all the smarties you can play Chinese finger puzzle?

    Well, basically you shove your finger in one end and push the tablet up the tube and out the top :)

    When you say you don't like something (Jazz music, science fiction, certain foods, for example), and people respond with "Oh that's just because you haven't experienced the right piece of music/SF book/perfectly cooked steak."

    No it isn't. F**k off.

    My car keeps giving me electric shocks!!! Like I need another reason to hate it!
    I *hate* that. Hate it. But I think I've found a way to stop it happening. Before getting out of the car, open the door (vitally important :p ) and hold on to the metal door frame. Then, without letting go of the frame, put your foot on the ground. This should work because now the electricity is discharged from you through the car. However, I get such bad shocks that, in addition to the above, I also tip the door with the metal tip of the key before I close it.

    This never used to happen to me when we owned that piece of shít Renault Megane but when we switched to the Honda Civic, zzzzzzaaaapp! This little smiley dude kinda resembles my hair after I touched it. :confused: It's a total hoor of a car for shocks.

    I actually saw the electricity arc from my finger to the car one time. Now I know why Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars was all Dark Side and cranky. That shít hurts, man.

    One of the problems I have, when walking the dogs on a beach, and one takes a dump, I bag it, but there never seems to be any bin to put it in ( at least where I go) so you are left walking a round with a bag of crap, and no, I am not one of the dog**** bag dumpers.
    You need to get this or this or an equivalent (eBay has lots). I don't know why more people don't use these.
