It's lunch time, but I'm not hungry enough to eat yet.

And it has to be the table right in front of you. Cos something terrible might happen to them if they took a table a bit further away.

I travel a bit for work, and one place I stay, I'm often first in for breakfast in the morning, so two rows of empty tables. I pick my table, get my breakfast, sit down.
Guaranteed the next person / people to arrive will squeeze in at the next table, ignoring all the empty tables around. Bit like when you park your car and someone has to squish in beside you, when there are loads of spaces around.
I wonder what would happen if these people who HAVE to do that arrived into an empty dining room. Or car park. Decisions, decisions...

They'd circle the restaurant/car park until someone else arrives and then park/sit beside them...

Anything that is top-heavy. Like empty baby's bottles, empty kitchen spray bottles. Basically anything that requires more work than it should to make it not fall over.

When you don't have breakfast and then you get a break at 11:30am and you're starving. Do you eat a huge breakfast (and then not be hungry at lunch time) or tease yourself with a small breakfast so you're kind of hungry at lunch time? Or stay starving - not possible!

A half eaten yoghurt pot with a heavy spoon in it, that keeps tipping over.

I got some reflexology done on my feet last night. The area concentrated on was my digestive system, I thought it was all horsesh*t and I'll just get a foot rub.
I took the longest slash of my life this morning, had a morning poop which I never ever ever do....and now I have to hit the can again for another #2.

I also found reflexology to be really helpful. The lady who used to do my sessions was able to tickle my tummy by pressing on a certain part of my foot


Also, TA by the fact that I have no cash until Thursday. Literally no cash until then. My finances are a scary thing.

TA - Constant reminders about Boom Bap's 6lb brown trout that he birthed a year ago. BB please stop reminding us about your bowel movements! :P

Hailstones. Some form of wannabe snow but really just hard little pellets of rain that basically attack you suddenly out of nowhere.

Trivially annoyed I have to go to the dentist today and get a filling done, I don't mind the filling bit but I bloody hate the injection.

Especially that one that has to go right into the bone on the inside of the roof of your mouth :eek: (and the seeping of the overspill of anaesthetic down your throat as the dentist tells you not to swallow)

rhabarbarum

Constantly trivially annoyed at the squeaky chair in the office. Honestly, can you not? I've oiled you already, why in the world would you still release your annoying as fk high-pitched screams whenever I decide to move?

There is no trivial annoyance here. Please don't post in the thread again.

Just as I sat back at my desk, I needed to get up and go for a pee.

Well well well 'King' ken, it annoys me trivially that you do not see my trivial annoyances in my last post possibly because I specifically haven't announced them as a trivial annoyance.
Going for a poop more than 1 time is a TA for me :pac:

Another annoyance of a trivial nature is that there is no annoyance in your post.

Check Mate :pac:

He got a new hip, the previous one got worn out after digging that big hole for Amy.

Muahahaha

TA'd at TV3's 5 minute ad breaks during the Champions League. Even more TA's that I didn't press pause when cooking dinner so I could fast forward them later.

I had a pretty shit day today. Had a gastroscopy (camera shoved down my throat) that I was told would last for 3 minutes, 4 at the "very most", and ended up lasting 18 minutes! Then got told I've got to take tablets for the rest of my life.

And even with all of that, my TA was this absolute fuckmonkey talking at the top of his voice in the waiting room. I live in a very 'nice' area, and was in the local hospital. I heard this twat say "And did you hear that Waitrose has closed down? Do you know why? It's because there's two 'pound shops' on the high street, it's attracting the lower classes," then listed a few nearby 'working class' areas that had buses 'shipping in' these people.

It took all of my strength not to smack him.

Totally agree, on a recent Citylink journey from Cork to Galway this person had her phone on message vibrate, the only problem being that this one single vibration was rather loud and was going off every five minutes so kinda similar to say a smoke alarm with its battery running low. Was trying to get some sleep and it was next to impossible.

Road to school is closed tomorrow so I will have to get up extra early to get there on time. Super annoying because I am not a morning person!

AndyBoBandy

The woman being served in front of you at the shop.

She has her few messages, pays for them. Transaction done.
Then she orders a lotto ticket & a euromillions ticket. Without quick pick, then with quick pick.
Pays for them.
Transaction done.


Then she orders 3 scratch cards & 20 John Player Blue.

Every time.

Indeed, I had to be up an hour earlier than usual this morning and it doesn't go well with me.

Companies that give out mobile numbers on their websites etc and then when you ring them, they answer "hello?" forcing you to ask "is this such and such company".. then they say yes.

It's a pain in the arse and unprofessional to boot
