    Gory details about deaths emerging in court as trials take place. What kind of sick f*ck reporters actually release this info instead of legal argument?

    Click bait headlines. Today's cracker - "people with these names are likely to be gym members" - would ya f*ck right off on the horse you rode in on. The only thing more annoying is that there are idiots who actually click on the heading and read and believe the sh*te.

    Middle age woman posting a few of those stupid face pictures from snapchat everyday on facebook, you look silly.

    Are you talking about the stupid face filters, like the dog and that crap? Or are you talking about duck lips and other stupid poses?
    In any event, they're all stupid.

    Three days in a row I came hone from town without teabags and now there's a real and palpable sense of fear in the house that we might run out of teabags . The fcuking horror of it.

    My husband nearly comes out in a rash if there's no teabags or we're close to running out. 11pm, 7am, no matter what time it is, we have to go out and track down Barry's somewhere. (Anyone who mentions Lyons teabags, I will fight you!)

    TA that I have a blister on the tip of my tongue, it's tiny but feels like a balloon! It's like when you get a bad paper cut and it feels like you've sliced your hand open!

    Having a solitary McDonald's chip drop en route to my gob, bounce off my chest and come to rest on the car mat on the drive home.

    I'm not pulling onto the hard shoulder of a motorway to pick it up, so it sits there for mile after mile, fusing its greasy goodness onto my meticulously kept mats, which, ironically enough, are so well kept you could eat your dinner off them.

    I have a bogey stuck in my right nostril. I've trimmed my nails this morning so cant get it that way.
    I've blown my nose, I've crafted a pointy tissue pokey device to have a rummage, I've tried a nose enema, I've done the one nostril squeeze and blow the other.

    Nothing will shift this.

    I'm starting to question myself now and think that it's a phantom bogey.

    Bums. "Story bud, have ya a euro for a cup of tea?". "No, Sorry but you should go to Brother Kevin's He gives tea and food to the homeless every day". Cue Vicky Pollard impression "No but, yeah but no but yeah". Just tell me it's for gear cause lying ain't gonna get you fcuk all from me.


    There was a woman in the local supermarket car park a while back spinning stories to people going into the store, presumably trying to guilt them on the basis that they were fortunate enough to be buying food. Some spin about how she couldn't afford a hostel and the shelter had no beds for women etc. My mam nearly fell for it until I pulled her away. The next week, there she was again accosting people going into the shop. She tried to start the same story with me and I just said, "heard it last week".

    TA gobsh*tes on the luas who don't take their bags off their backs and insist on belting those of us seated repeatedly in the face. Actual rage.

    TA my diet. While I am happy that I have lost weight, I am truly f*cking sick of it now, ten kilos later. I am sick of apples and water and I want cheese pizza and wine right now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,468 ✭✭✭✭OldNotWIse


    TA people not listening to me because everything I say is dismissed on the basis that I am vegetarian. My parents were watching a documentary about food that is bad for health and the environment and the usual suspects - processed meat and apples from the US that are laden with pesticides and carcinogens etc. Palm oil got a mention too because of the destruction of forestry and habitats. Then they start telling me all this sh*t! I'm like, hello I've been saying all this for years and you dismissed my points because you think I'm a quack. So annoying :(

    If they said it on TV, it must be true. :rolleyes:
    My folks are the same , they'll only give weight to something if Dr Eva Orsmond says it.

    Well most of it was true, it wasn't scare mongering, just facts. But yes they are in that stage, having recently discovered Youtube, where they watch something and then all of a sudden six clicks later they are on the phone asking if I knew that Aliens had invaded Australia and were cultivating cocaine pineapples there. Like parents, get off the internet! This internet needs parental controls - for parents! I'm terrified of what they might find....

    It's trivial, but very annoying. My work e-mail is set up as my full first name (six letters) but absolutely everyone in work calls me by the three letter abbreviation of the name. Why do certain people, sending internal informal e-mails, use the full version of my name when addressing me?!? (And they're always the most annoying people). If they spoke to me in person, they'd call me by the shorter name...

    :mad:

    A while ago, we had some friends over for a bit of grub and a drop of wine. I had some music on Spotify on the go. One couple, a bit older were amazed at this and the fact I could play pretty much any song they wanted.

    I met a mutual friend a week or so later, and sniggering he says " I believe you have a jukebox in your gaff" ��

    Spare a thought for one Michelle Elizabeth Cummin, working in some office in England and who was auto-assigned the email monicker "cumminme@somecompany.co.uk"... :D

    Reminds me of when I was dealing with someone from a newspaper in Scunthorpe.
    Took a while to figure out why I could not get mails from them thru our work email filters.

    Washing/drying instructions on clothes are always on the inside of a tag, where a second tag will have become stuck to it.

    Got to the beach, quite warm, nice bit of a breeze. Put down blanket and take off shoes and socks. Sit back and relax. Ten minutes later it's lashing and I got soaked to the skin.
