Trivial Things That Annoy You — Rules in Post #1

Boom_Bap

Welcome to the new Trivial Annoyance thread. Breath in that new thread smell, embrace it and then let fly with your TA's (Trivial Annoyances)

But before you do, there are some rules. These are the rules that will be strictly enforced. If they are broken they will be punished in a way that will trivially annoy you. It may be a ban of random length, it may be a public flogging, it may be a thread ban, you may need to serve an embarrassing punishment before you are allowed to return.

- This is not a chat thread, so no jumping into conversation off the back of someone's TA.
- By all means agree with someone's TA, but show how it annoys you as well.
- Each post must contain a trivial annoyance.
- Each post must contain a trivial annoyance.
- Each post must contain a trivial annoyance.
- Did I mention that each post must contain a trivial annoyance.
- If you were banned from a previous Trivial Things That Annoy You thread, you're also banned from this thread.

Woohoo..

*cough

I mean...

I'm trivially annoyed it took this long to set up a new thread

maudgonner

TA'd at the misspelling


(I like to think that you did that on purpose, just to kick things off though)

Daibh

Slow drivers who then suddenly speed through an amber light, leaving you stuck hollering obscenities at a red.

TA'd that Booms_Baps is not the king of boards



Also TA'd that after getting my car all lovely and shiny damn birds go and poop all over it.

Very TA'd that I'm struggling to fight my treat cravings.

fussyonion

TA'd that so many celebs on Twitter show their "grief" over the passing of other celebs.
No, Keavy from B*witched, you never knew Prince and he never knew you and nobody wants to see you tweeting your grief.

maudgonner

I'm sliiighhhtly TA'd that Boom_Bap didn't take on board osarusan's excellent suggestion for an alternative name for this thread.

It's never too late you know...

When you feel your phone vibrate in your pocket, you take it out, and low and behold, no notification. Sometimes it happens and I realize my phone is in my other pocket. I'm convinced that my leg just spasms habitually.

Tombi!

Whenever a mod has to repeat something several fupping times.
I heard you the first time. No posts containing a trival annoyance.
right?

TA'ed my life is entirely without direction atm

nicki11

Trivially annoyed I bought nice big ribs and they turned out to just be fat and bone

CFlat

I don't mind drivers pulling out in front of me and slightly miss-judging the distance but ffs step on the gas and don't make me stand on my breaks to avoid rear ending you because of your error.

TG1

TA'd that I can't remember any of the trivial things that annoyed me over the last while when I had no thread to post them in.

everlast75

F*cking YouTube - trying to find Prince's "starfish and coffee" and it throws up 100+ videos - either ****ty cover versions or some tosser sticking his own song up instead

Tombi!

Actually one that really annoys me. When I have a bunch of items and let someone with one thing go before me, then they hold up the fupping place by either paying out in 10 cent coins or else using a debit card that's declined or some bollocks.

CrowdedHouse

TA'd that I was sitting waiting for old thread to be unlocked instead of clicking the link to this one...

whatismyname

TA that I'm finding so much impossible to figure out how to do on new boards.

High five to me for managing to make this post, but so much I'm missing tonight.

Hopefully it'll get easier and figure it out in time, but grr, miss it.

Edit: TA that as soon as I posted that it switched to the old version, but back again to the new version as soon as I canme back into this.

Bedtime, I think;-)

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

The part who threw his takeaway wrappers into the ditch across from my house - after I spent an hour litter picking along the road this afternoon.

N365

People stirring tea for more than 4 seconds. Bstadssss

Shannon757

Putting on a lovely warm pants straight from the dryer and burning myself eith the zips on the pockets.

Poochie05

Being too tired to get off the couch and go to bed, being wide awake after brushing my teeth when I finally do go

dirkmeister

TA is people taking snapchat selfies in pubs but have to strike about 7 poses before they are happy with the results.

Bonus TA:group of young ones all lined up in a kitchen with a hand on hip for a photo pose.

It's extremely irrational but for some reason it bugs the sh!t out of me.

bnt

TA-ed that, in all the hullabaloo about the death of Prince, the death of another Soul giant, Percy Sledge, has gone practically unnoticed.

Tied you didn't notice that bit

Incidental......don't know that word...continue

How the phrase 'trivially annoyed' garbles the distinction between something that mildly irks you in an inconsequential way & something small & trifling, but with the ability to turn you into a foaming at the mouth type of man beast.

Rogueish

Boo Hiss - Heartburn!
I had 2 hot cross buns earlier for my tea and be the holy moly the heartburn is unreal. I cannot wait for this pregnancy to get to term..

My internet radio has gremlins. It has turned itself on down in the kitchen and I'm too lazy to get out of bed to turn it off.

(Yea the TA thread is back!!)

wil

Trivially Annoyed that BB would have the temerity to abbreviate "Trivial Annoyance" to TA and that so many would follow suit.

FFS TA is thanks or territorial army or Tantalum or teaching assistant or Tera-ampere or the sixteenth letter of the Arabic alphabet or TACA Airlines in San Salvador or an album by Trans Am or Tis in Irish, NOT and I repeat NOT trivial annoyance.

Haven't I got enough nonrememberable abbreviations to confuse me without making up another.
Ta.

Robsweezie

The fuss made of conor mcgregor over one stupid tweet.

pragmatic1

When words like organisation come up with a red mark underneath on the internet, even though it's the correct spelling.

gammygils

Ignoant b@stards who drive behind me with full lights on. I drive a lot at night and this is an everyday thing now. Or every night!
How ignorant and dangerous is that
FFS.

I despise Onions - the bane of my life.

Driving up the M1 on certain days, the stench of spring onions from local fields is that bad, it would make you feel sick

Badly Drunk Boy

I was trivially annoyed that between 5.30 and 6 yesterday, I answered two phone calls from unknown numbers (one to my mobile, the other to my landline). I hate answering unknown numbers and usually don't. Turns out one was from Virgin Media, looking to give me a great €25 a month deal on my mobile (I usually spend less than €20), and the other from an Irish website that I've bought stuff from, offering me an discount. (Eh, send an e-mail. Your business is web-based!).

I'm back to ignoring those calls now...

KERSPLAT!

TA'd that Batman v Superman was a bit ****. They could have easily cut 30-45 minutes out of it.

Kajemo

my trivial annoyance, that my neighbour uses the path outside my house as long term parking for her friends, family, ex lovers etc when they go on holidays.... arrrgh... bugs the crap out of me!!! argh.

NIMAN

Its a Friday, which means that Facebook is full of people telling you its a Friday, usually accompanied by a (what they consider to be) witty picture or cartoon.

Also, we will have a day of radio DJs telling us the weekend has officially begun. Like it isn't allowed to happen until they say so.

Mesrine65

I'm permanently TA'd...period :mad: (I know what yiz are thinking, dirty auld yokes)

Redhairedguy

My housemate spells it lesagna... I corrected him once, but he must have forgotten and now I don't want to come across as a crazy person.

Admittedly it's not often I'll see it written down, but <eye twitch> when I do...

A_smurf

TA'd that I missed the opening of a brand new TA thread.

nkav86

People repeating themselves, they make a statement continue in conversation then bring the same statement back up several more times. I got it the first time!!

aaronjumper

My internet is terrible and I'm hungry but I'm too lazy to fix any of these problems.
Two for the price of one.

whatismyname

When a dress seems just gorgeous but is way too low to wear without a vest top underneath, without basically having everything on show, but it seems that little bit less gorgeous with the vest top on under.

Spanish Eyes

Thanks you Boom Bap. FTW.

Anyway, when I bundle the socks in pairs fold em over as you do, put them in the machine yet there is ALWAYS an odd sock in there. I scratch my head all the time about that.

hullaballoo

I was TA'd about a couple of driving-related things but now I'm TA'd some other people got in here and posted the exact same fcuking TAs I had! :mad:

Spanish Eyes

Ahem, I am trivially annoyed (and afraid, very afraid....) to quote another post lest I get a ban or something.

So what's the story, are there rules within rules or what

TA'd that I have fekkin ask this!

As far as I can see, fine to quote someone else's post as long as you're saying how it trivially annoys you too, or you're giving some other trivial annoyance in the post.

My TA for this post (since every post must have one) is bra straps on skin that's not quite sunburnt but is quite red and a little sore (not sunburnt, just think it's not used to being in the dun, so is adjusting).

Could just about cope with most things but those bra straps are fecking painful.

TA'd that because I'm pregnant I can't take certain medications. Generally it wouldn't be a problem but when your spinal injury is acting up and you're now dying with a cold and can't take any strong medication to enable you to study for exams that start in 10 days. I'm lying in bed shivering watching fúcking youtube videos about packet switching in an osmosis attempt at study.

Also people that say pregnancy is magical and a wonderful experience. Fúck off, it's misery.

I am sorry to hear that, but off to the Babies and Prg board for you now. As if I was a mod, Sorry bout that. Wish you well.

I am not prg so the only thing I can be TA'd about that compares (maybe) with you is my big belly after eating loads of garlic bread. So TA'd that bread would make me so burpy.

Spanish Eyes

Warning... might be controversial.

I am TA'd that I have to pay by weight for my grass cuttings in the Brown Bin whereas whose who can spread the grass or throw it in the ditches can do it for free. Yikes!!

MilesMorales1

I get trivially annoyed when I'm getting on the bus, and the entrance is blocked by someone who was standing at the bus stop for 10 minutes before the bus changed but decided to wait till they were on the bus before slowly picking out the correct change for the journey.
