Zippie, let's start again?

Too late now. Zippie's fallen down the well.

The slowing down of time between 17:00 and 17:30

On a Friday, this tends to lengthen from the period after lunch to around 17:30.

I blame a lot of it on that fcuking "home and Away"

Let's explore our feelings on this a little...

Tomorrow morning will find me entertaining 20 of my son's 6 year old friends at a soft play centre. That's 2 hours of my life I will never get back. I'll be scoping out potential hiding places as soon as I arrive

That program enraged me years ago. Alf Stewart used to go around in his massive Ute swigging from a Fosters can and handing out roots up the hole to any flamin' gallahs who were looking for it. Now it appears that some one of these little shíts with an Interesting Beard has Alf's knackers in a backpack and he's going around all fcukan Talky and Emotional, like a flamin' sheila! :mad:

With us, it was Friends All of a sudden we all had "issues" - nobody ever had a f*cking "problem" anymore...

Neither had they. It was a bunch of over-educated, pampered middle-class dorks playing at being grown up and spending their days figuring out if they wanted to ride each other or not. What a stupid program.

Catfish. Some weirdos on that show. Some of the most annoying accents I've heard.
Sometimes it's funny when they find the person. The best one being the big fat black gay fella, pretending to be a skinny white blonde girl. Or the one where yer wan could take out her eye. Some very strange people.
The accents though, good lord, some of them are painful.
"I phoned my mom on my cell, and I was like, whatever mom, like, you don't love me and, whatever, and like, so I called my boyfriend Chad, and we like, hung out and stuff and whatver, and then we ate some Jello, and like, then we made out"

Lol, I think that was actually the blurb on the back of the box set :P

I can't keep up with you picking arguments with me on twisting things that I said into things that I didn't say... but there we go :rolleyes:

MOD We all know what happened with the last thread, if you where not a reader, here is a reminder on how that was closed off.

Please remember this is not your personal Facebook newsfeed. Post your trivial annoyances and of course you may discuss them, but no chit chat and no flirting. Keep the cliqueyness (not a real word) out of it please and thank you. Personal digs will result in bans.

Let's not have this one closed and keep rolling with the annoyances.

I used to love Home and Away as a teenager, but Jesus I firmly believe it's when this started is when the young uns started to get so lippy! Rack off, Mr. Fishaa! I used to be agog at the sheer cheek of them, and a bit envious too. I was a quiet young un

Two meals for £8.99 when I'm dining on my own and it's about £7.50 for one meal. I get tempted to pull a stranger in from the street to ask them to share dinner and go halfers :P

Oh and 'two for the price of one desserts' but not quite as annoying, as hey I may just need to have two desserts instead of one. Wouldn't be so terrible would it?

I was running at lunch time, which made me hungry. TA that the hunger is caused by the running so that if I do eat - I'll just negate the run Also, lost some weight so far. not a huge amount, but enough that my running shorts are now too big so I've to get a smaller pair

Also TA that I now feel strangely obliged to validate every post by saying "this is a trivial annoyance". The thing should speak for itself. Like a f*ckin disclaimer in every post

Reminds me of the trivially annoying way that staff in "all you can eat" restaurants watch you all the time, with the obvious intention of making you feel incomfortable so that you don't go mad and start stuffing your face...

that irn bru and irn bru cans look so similar, and I so often get the wrong one by mistake.

at least coca-cola and diet coke have the decency to look very different so I don't make that mistake.

although on that note, have TWICE accidentally picked up a vanilla coca-cola instead of an ordinary coke as they were so similar, gulped it down and spewed it out... twice!

How so Joe

It's 4pm on a Friday. I'm bored and fed up, and don't want to do any more work. But I've training at 6/6.30, which is the opposite side of the college to where I live.
Can't go home. Don't want to do any more study. Dunno what to do. Ugh.

Positively fiendish of them to have the same thing look the same

Rosie Rant

Watching the Leinster match on TG4 and not being able to understand the commentary. It's very excluding for those that don't speak Irish fluently. It makes me feel guilty for not being fluent. And the commentator's annoying voice goes right through my head! On the Welsh channel they apparently have the option to watch the match with English commentary. Wish we had it!


Annother annoyance : I can't seem to find a recipe online that is JUST a recipe anymore. It wrecks my head having to scroll through a bunch of bloggy bullsh*t (Mummy Dearest always used to bake these with love when I was little using Nanna Precious' special recipe - oh the memories! ) and a series of pictures of the food, displayed prettily. One picture will do. As for the writing I just want the ingredients and the method, please, thanks.

People of older age thinking they are a protected species that can skip any ****ing queue they like. I don't give a **** what age you are, have a bit of manners!

Errr, wet roads increase braking distances, esp heavy rain and after a long dry spell?

Silver coloured cars.

Yup, you read that right. Silver coloured cars.

Plain, boring and currently ubiquitous.

No individuality. No imagination. Boring boring boring..

Silver coloured cars in the rain with no lights on!

This ad on boards is annoying me.

In what universe will a tuned Toyota Yaris (Possibly Auris) keep up with a tuned Mustang?

When I'm on the work PC I get the Single Russian Girls ad and there is a Child Abuse Hotline ad too, they stay static too while you scroll so theres no way to get rid of them.

I usually get ads in Japanese (er.. I think..), warnings that my capital is at risk (I don't do stocks..) And invitations to Islam chat rooms! :eek:

indeed :rolleyes:

Fair enough. But it doesn't mean crawling at 40 mph or less either which was the point I was trying to make.
And you can't overtake because of the fear of some bellend coming in the opposite direction with no lights on!
