    On deadline with entirely too much to do, but feeling so (unduly) tired that espresso won't even kick-start the motivation.

    A bit TA'd that sleep doesn't alleviate fatigue.

    It doesn't annoy me, but for some reason I get creeped out when I'm reading an old thread from about a year ago that I don't remember reading before and I see that I've thanked posts.
    Sometimes when I'm reading old threads I'll see a post that I agree with and when I look at the poster it's me and I've no recollection of making that post :o

    That fucking Irish rail ad in which some absolute muppet, who has clearly never travelled with Irish rail, and has decided to stay on the train, proclaims "it's the train, I'm too comfy here". Then, even more inexplicably, the voice over says "ah the train, it's so good you might not want to get off".

    ARE THEY FUCKING SERIOUS?? I can't put into words how much I have NEVER WANTED TO STAY ON THE FUCKING TRAIN!! In fact, because there is only one platform in the station I get the train to, you have to stay on the train outside of the station while the train ahead of yours is cleaned and then leaves the station and only then does your train pull up and allow you to get off. So you have no choice but to stay on the train!

    Actual FUCKING rage.

    This cold just wont go away, now my throat is in a jocker. I'm going to have to blend all my food today or just eat ice cream for all meals.

    Why in the love of God to people need to talk to their friends at the top of their voice on public transport ? Sweet Jesus I have to do a long commute every day which is bad enough with these fcuks in my ear every day. Nobody cares what Debbie or whoever said on Facebook. I need to get a cup of p1ss to throw at them. Let's see how loud they are then.

    This. A million times. This morning had to endure two girls discuss yesterday's psychology lecture in great detail. In American accents. They aren't American, they live in Clondalkin! I get it, you go to UCD. I couldn't concentrate on my book because of them. One actually told a story of how someone on the bus shushed her last week. I wish I could give that person a medal!

    I used to be a daily commuter but not anymore thankfully. However, unfortunately for me, I still use the train a few times a month and i have yet to have a pleasant train journey. My main gripe is the price of the journey compared to the service you get. Baffling.

    If I ever do snap and take someone out it will be on a train journey!

    And I hope that's enough to argue justifiable provocation!!

    My back and neck are in bits cause of all the computer work I'm doing for school and work.
    I know that once I get some proper stretches in, they will be a lot better.

    TA I have a cyst on my inner thigh and it means every stretch is even more painful. And I cant do my mind clearing walk to start with.

    Waiting on a doc to clear a particular process, cant do a thing with it till it has. Means it's going to be all rush rush now to get it done on time and many ppl's weekends canceled.

    General arsey behaviour on the tube. Don't stand with your bag in my face when there's loads of room to move about. Don't hog the pole with your arse against it while I'm trying to hold onto it. Don't walk out right in front of me as if I don't fcuking exist when I'm trying to leave the platform.

    Seriously, so many people lacking the "don't be a dick" gene it's unbelievable. :mad::mad::mad:

    Chuggers. I f*cking hate them, and their faux friendliness and passive aggression. It's like they have an answer for everything. "Have a nice day", "Have a great day" - I'll have whatever kind of a f*cking day I want. Stupid jumped up drama students. They should be banned. Also TA the stupid f*ckers who obviously stop and entertain them and hand over their bank details. If people stopped being such spineless idiots it wouldn't pay the chuggers to be there in the first place.

    Sending a message to one of my friends detailing all the pros and cons of my new love interest - but sending it to said new love interest instead. And to add to the embarrassment, complete with a picture I stalker-robbed from his facebook profile asking, "What do you think, lovely big man arms on him" :o

    A bit drastic but I'd probably agree with this.

    Honestly, I feel kind of sorry for them. What an incredibly sh1t job. Everyone hates them. Imagine how bad your days would be if you had to try to be friendly to grumpy commuters and get them to agree to give money to some silly charity all day every day. And get paid minimum wage for your troubles. The abuse they must get like. I usually make eye contact and smile at them and say "sorry I'm in a rush" as I know they probably never get friendliness in return. No skin off my nose like.

    My expert, professional, medical* advice is for you to DEFINITELY only eat ice-cream for all meals. That's what I'd do, as a real medical doctor of medicine**.

    Definitely a TA of mine.
    I can't stand put-on accents. And they are usually accompanied by very loud voices.

    I sit opposite someone at work with the fakest of fake accents. Aaaargh!

    I hope the pros outweigh the cons, otherwise you might have a situation like that episode of Friends where Ross made the list about Rachel :o

    Just got my passport photo.

    It looks like me. Specifically asked for it to be Photoshopped but alas no.

    Staying in my sister's for a couple of days. Managed to puke all over my clothes, the rug and the bed this morning. Have to try and wash the clothes and get them in the dryer as I didn't bring much with me. I cleaned the rug and the bed as best I could and will put into the wash too but I feel awful that I am puking on her stuff. Stupid bloody acid reflux go and fcuk yourself.
