People who breath in to the microphone on conference calls. Like a heavy breather. Freaks me out.

I woke up with a perfectly circular little bruise on my leg this morning. That was a mystery until I spotted the 10 cent coin in the bed when I was getting dressed.

I got all fumble-mouthed at the chemist's and asked for my "prescrimtium" . The lady who served me was very nice and only raised her eyebrows a little bit. She sounded really sincere when she told me to "take care now" .

This little fu'er cut in front of me at the self service till. The one that had become free was card-only, though, so he couldn't use it and I went to the next one. Mwahahahaha, 'tis the small victories .

Those Foo Fighters ads on the radio. I hate them, that forced shouty voice is so annoying.
Bad spelling and text speak.
Getting blamed for a fart you didn't let.
Having got a large quarter pounder meal, and a chicken burger from McDonald's and still being hungry after it.
The referendum.
People who can't sit down, or shut up.
Stupid drivers.

Extendable dog-leads. I've repeatedly been almost tripped up because some inconsiderate bellend allowed their dog to roam semi-freely at the end of such a lead, in the process blocking the entire width of the path.

Extendable dog-leads should be banned! :mad:

+1.
Encountered a dope last week, her on one side of the path, dog on the other, the lead was across at knee height. I just stopped and waited for her to wake up, and realise that other people can actually use the ****ing path, not just her and her dog.
If that was an elderly person, that she met, they could have been tripped up, because of her stupidity. I just don't understand the purpose of those leads.

I was out today and I have an awful headache, so I decided before I got the shopping I would buy myself a bit of lunch and oh my god it was the lunch from hell. I went into the cafe and took a seat at a single table in the far corner as I didn't want to be bothered. This man walked in and even tho there were lots of seats he sat at my table directly in front of me. Then a family came in and the little fella started throwing his toy at me over and over again. So I ate my sandwich trying to avoid eye contact with the ****wit in front of me while being bashed by the brat beside me.

do you mean there were actually free tables but he still sat at your table with you?

Yes there were lots of free tables and he sat at mine. They are only small tables so the ****er was literally breathing on my lunch.

People who press the button at pedestrian crossings and then cross before the lights change. Then cars end up stopping at the red light even though no-one is crossing.

Either don't press the button and cross whenever you want, or press the button and wait!

I'd be more than trivially annoyed!
That is weird behaviour. I was in Arnotts one day, ages ago, quiet Saturday morning, in the coffee shop, at the Abbey Street entrance, on the ground floor. Loads of tables empty. I chose one, and the next guy to arrive, chose to sit, back-to-back with my chair.

Ages ago, I was in a Marks and Spencers coffee shop, and the woman behind me repeatedly managed to bash her chair off mine, for no good reason. So, when I got up to leave, I did the same to her chair. Cue, hurt puppy dog look ...

So cars are coming, you press the button! 30 seconds later there is a gap in the traffic, you want me to stand there like a twat until the green man rather than just cross over the road at the first available opportunity?

Jesus wept!

You would wonder what people are thinking when they do this sort of weird ****, but I suppose it takes all sorts to make a world. Though I couldn't understand the people letting the 3/4 year old throw his toy at me over and over again because it was less then cute.

whisky_galore

Aldi and Lidl shopping trolleys taking a €2 piece and and other trolleys taking a €1.

Never seem to have a €2 when I want one, hate standing around with €2 in change shadowing people with trolleys.

I remember a few years back in Rathmines walking down the footpath one day and next thing something smashed into the back of me, I stumbled forward and then looked around to see what had hit me & it was a young child on a trike about 3 years of age with him mam and I hadn't even said anything & the mother started screaming at me " don't you dare say anything to my child, he didn't hit you on purpose , he is only a baby, leave him alone" I hadn't said anything to the child at all, something hit me full force on the back of my legs so of course im going to turn around to see what it was!!

Reaching that stage in life that you know what's bad for you and you feel so guilty about it, you don't eat it.
When younger, you'd horse in whatever badness and not give a feck

Shopping for new glasses. Nothing worse than trying to decide what to wear for the next two years, let alone the cost.

I hear you.
On entering the opticians you have all these ideas about how slick and suave you will look with your new glasses....on exiting you find you have bought the least offensive pair in the shop and that your grandad would love them. :mad:

That SuperStay 24-Hour lipstick by Maybelline is SO drying.
And it's IMPOSSIBLE to remove.
My Jesus, I applied it earlier (bought it this morning), then applied the balm, thought the colour looked a bit odd so tried removing it.
Tried Micellar water, tried face wipes, tried my argan oil for my hair...eventually I had to use sunflower oil and a bit of elbow grease.
It's put me off using it now; my lips are very dry now.

Oh and not a TA, but thought I'd share with you...

My mother wanted to know what the lipstick looked like, cos she was going to buy one, so I said I'd take a photo of my lips and send it to her.

The only decent place I could get some natural light was if I stood at the front door, with the pane of glass letting sunlight in.

So I was standing in front of the glass, pouting like a Facebook darling, when I see something move in the garden...on the other side of the door obviously.

I can't make it out, but whatever it is backs away.
I glance out the window and it's a girl delivering takeaway leaflets.

She must have saw me standing on the other side of the door, WITH MY PHONE IN THE "TAKING A PICTURE" POSITION, DEEMED ME A LOONY, AND FECKED OFF!!!!

Mortified is not the word!!

People who lean their heads in when eating from a fork.
Bring the fork TO you, ffs!

I also hate people who use their knife to "help" the food onto the fork :mad:
