    So annoyed. My OH isn't around today. My friend was supposed to bring me to work today, didn't get me on time so I missed my train and wound up being 10 minutes late to work. He promised me that my little puppy with his sore eye would be brought to the vet because honestly if I was driving last night Id have brought him in, and it killed me leaving him all day without the vet :( I was texting him all day telling him not to forget, and he was giving it large "Id do anything for you hun, you know that." And "don't be worrying hun, I'll take care of him, he'll be fine". Text him at 5, asking him if he was at the vets. "Sorry hun I got held up. Ill bring him tomorrow for you".


    **** RIGHT OFF. I would have left work at lunch time had I known he was messing me around, it was killing me all day knowing he was at home in pain and no comfort for him. Him telling me all day not to worry. Now I'm racing home, trying to organise someone to bring him to the vet. It's going to be out of hours too so double the call out charge.

    And then when I get upset in work, one of the older bints who never stops talking about her kids said to me "why are you getting so upset? It's a dog not a child". Shut the **** up. He's my child.

    He's going to loose his poor little eye I just know he is

    Got a connection for it but it won't work. His TV has no remote so we can't get it to go to any av station either.

    If it's an old tv, try getting to the channel/blue screen you had working the video player, that might work for the X-box, or, (cough cough)it may not..

    That or she sounds like she has a throat infection. A big TA for me that one.

    I had bloods done I need vitamin b 12 injections (which i haven't got because .. Injections) I have a low thyroid and have to take eltroxin but eltroxin is expensive and now I have my epilepsy meds to get so they take precedent over thyroid.

    I wouldn't have the appetite for a farmers dinner lol I'm a picker, but that could be because I feel so ****. Before Christmas anything I would eat wouldn't even stay there but I don't get sick at all now so it's much better

    You should look into the drugs payment scheme card, €144 a month maximum charge on prescriptions, best if you stick to the one chemist. You can download the form and send it off, it's really quick.
    Without the drugs payment scheme I would be paying out €350 a month.

    The next time someone says to me "when you have kids..." I'm going to respond with "well, when you get a dog" and when they say "but I don't like dogs", I'm going to say "well I don't like kids".

    This is probably not a TA because it drives me f.ucking spare but the DFS sofa ads? Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!!!! First, they poached My Favourite Things to sell f.cuking furniture AND now My Favourite Things is stuck in my head :(
    OldNotWIse wrote: »
    And also the Homestore and More ads where the guy talks in this ridiculously monotone fast voice about being the best home store or something. Just F off.

    Around the time my beloved dog Harvey died; that feckin awful Harvey Norman ad began to be played incessantly on the radio.

    "Go Harvey, go Harvey, go Harvey go Harvey, go Harvey, go Harvey, go Harvey Norman"

    Harvey wasn't going anywhere. :(

    People who make the most trivially obvious joke or comment possible really annoy me. Everyone else has thought of it, but passed on it because it was crap.

    eg. Playing Monopoly - "Wouldn't it be cool if this was real money?"

    F### off!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,184 ✭✭✭riclad


    People that use a lot of american slang , eg awesome,cool ,dude,in everday conversation .
    We irish have our own native slang,
    there,s no need to pretend to be an american .
    unless you have an american accent you just sound like a idiot.

    All I said was I disagree with your statement that doctors kill more than they cure...it simply is not true. And yes, of course you are to free to get "treatment"from whoever you wish, a witchdoctor if so desired.I will stick with medical profession thanks.

    Anyway, up them stairs quick, before I take a slipper to you.

    Where did I ever suggest snake oil etc? All I am saying is check what the dr says and suggests. So my suffering means nothing? My loss of my working life and my dire pain now? srameen, please lay off me.. enough..I will never trust a dr period. I have a mind of my own. And I use it. I accept treatment from, no one unless and until I am sure so why have the crack re witchdoctors! Once bitten by drs many times shy. I dont actually really have a GP now as they binned me for making a validated complaint. You would trust someone like that? If I need anything I tell them what to do now.Works fine. I used to say I would trust them with a broken bone but seeing the mess they made of a simple fracture that no longer applies

    What kind of stuff do they talk about?

    Is it all crisp winter mornings and babies' laughter? :(

    Things we enjoy and are thankful for.. try it! I love it . when I wake safe I give thanks, when I have food to eat and a roof over my head and the glory of the mountains and sky. And that I can still walk.... Try it!

    People using the word "hun". I have a friend who uses it in every single text. Are you ok hun? I'm on the way hun? Id do anything for you hun.

    God it drives me up the wall. My oh says honey a bit but it's not every single time he opens his mouth, and it doesn't annoy me as much as this hun business.

    Mod: This thread has been derailed enough.

    Graces7, you've already had a warning on this thread yet it keeps being derailed. Please don't post on this thread again.
    Everyone else, get back to the thread and drop the bickering please.

    TA at myself I tripped over a kerb 3 weeks ago and hurt my ankle after having one too many. It's still sore :(

    Yeah but then they'll say, "you'll change your mind when you have them" :( It's a cycle... I don't particularly dislike kids, it's just that I dislike humans who are self-absorbed, noisy, un-caring, unsymapthetic, hyper-dependant on other people for everything, self-centred and who think the whole world revolves around them and their stupid little needs...and kids just happen to tick all these boxes :D

    A friend of mine has started adding the word "lad" to the end of text messages. "Ah that's great news lad", "I'll see you there in 20 minutes lad". I've known him 18 years and he has never done this before.

    I don't want him to text me anymore.

    The water meter installers are in my estate this week and some people are being really unreasonable and constantly seem to be looking for things to call them and complain about. Mothers with prams having to use the footpath on the other side of the road for a day or two if it's blocked, those orange barriers causing some kind of danger, etc. Getting a bit TA.

    They seemed to do a bit of damage to my front garden wall though, bit annoyed about that.

    My brother adds the word "boy" only it sounds more like "bai" to the ends of his sentences when he is drunk. "Are ye goin' for a pynt bai?"

    I think he should hang.

    I probably have the TA of saying son. I say it to my friend that lets me wax him and my oh.

    WELL SAAAAN! It's a greeting.


    It's annoying me now too, but oh well.

    Having to wait for eggs in the canteen because some fat bloke saw fit to take the last six fried eggs for himself.

    Reminds me: the fact that nobody in the entire food industry seems capable of cooking an egg properly. I always have to ask for mine to be cooked a bit better and I get funny looks. Ffs if the white is still runny I am going nowhere near that thing! What is wrong with people?
