    TA that I watched a whole episode of 'Only Connect' and could not get one question right. Feeling stupid now. :(

    It's amazing when you get it all back though. Last year I was emergency taxed for months and when I got it back I bought a pair of louboutins!!


    I'm annoyed trying to buy lipliner from Mac. I've been trying weeks and - no dice :( they're just not getting stock in

    Yeah that bit will be great but I owe my mum money because of it! TA that I haven't won the lotto yet!

    Finding out my brothers idea of going away for "a few days" is a 14 day holiday to New York.

    This annoys me for many reasons
    - he left me with a rake of responsibility
    - he didn't even mention it
    - had I known he was going to the USA I could have given him a shopping list

    I feel like wringing his neck and burning down the house

    Disposable Nappy was mixed in with the washing. Washing machine & clothes covered in those gel bits. Very very TA.

    It's my favourite show, you'll get better. I get loads now. Especially the connecting wall. I struggle when there is any kind of English history or political questions!

    Probably why he didn't tell you.

    RIP threads. Would like to see them either banned or at least all merged into some sort of dedicated ''RIP Megathread''.

    Do you pause on the wall and work it out in your own time?
    And have you 'played the wall' online?:)

    The ****ing ASSHOLE sitting next to me on the train is chawing on an apple so hard it's giving me shivers. It's like one of those never ending apples, he seems to be at it for ages unless he had two. Chaw chaw chaw. Good lord. He sounds like a horse trying to eat a turnip through a letterbox. Why, why, why?

    I wouldn't pride myself on my intelligence but even I know how INCONSIDERATE AND RUDE AND ANNOYING that might be to other passengers

    Yeah I pause the wall, otherwise they solve it before me! I do play online, I think I've done them all now :o

    That scummy ring of yogurt you get when you take the lid off a yogurt....my other half eats it no problem while I stir furiously to mix it in.
    Bleurgh.

    Opening the wheelie bin to put another bag in; I always have to hold my breath/hope no flies make a pounce on me.

    Bin companies not coming to collect the bins.
    Last week I left my brown bin out the NIGHT BEFORE as my bin company starts collecting from 6am.

    The next day I headed out and returned home at 5pm...bin hadn't been collected, but as they usually work til 8pm, thought I'd give them the benefit of the doubt.

    8pm came and went and I got onto the company the next morning who said they'd be back in a few days for the bin.
    They didn't come out.

    I HATE the sound of other people eating apples. I can hardly tolerate the sounds I make! Which is a pity as I like apples.

    I had that problem last Sunday, trying to find somewhere open for breakfast.
    Tried everywhere, and because I was at a loose end, I was actually driving all around the city..nowhere open.
    No shops, nobody around...twas like a ghost-town!

    Thought you were buying me icecream? TA - at people who dont keep promises!

    My real annoyance is my bad luck with yogurt, it either splashes me when i open it or I drop some on myself

    Most of Dublin is off work today from the looks of things. My train and luas was empty this morning, you could sit anywhere you want. It felt like the start of 28 Days Later going to work.

    Watching someone make you a cuppa (after kindly offering), but you're too polite to tell them to do it the way you like it....

    'AARGGHHH, you're putting milk in when the teabag is still there??!
    WTF?!?! Why would you do that?!?!
    TAKE IT OUT FIRST!!!
    It's gonna taste all weird now!!!'
