    Those folk who think do not disturb signs do not apply to them, because what they have to say is more important than anything you need.

    You're welcome. :D
    Here's another for you...by the time I get home they'll be like a thong they'll be so far buried up me hole. :D

    The gift that keeps on giving:D:D

    When you're looking on the internet for a recipe for something but the websites are just too much hassle to scroll through...
    Don't get me started on youtube repair videos where they start off with their affirmatory life story.

    All I want to know is which clip or screw to undo first

    Probably more than trivial, but as it's now after midnight I thought today was now Friday.

    Whatever thing lives on my roof. I can't figure it out. It tap dances during the day, it tap dances during the night... Banging the roof from inside doesn't scare it, pegging stones at the roof from outside doesn't scare it... I have no idea what it is but it is noisy as f*ck.

    You've basically just described the entire modern internet. Infuriating.

    Mice in the attic can be noisy.

    My neighbour has an obsession with throwing things in her wheelie bin at 7.30 in the morning. She doesn't just lift up the bin lid but lets the lid flap, flip over and bang against the side of the bin. To make matters worse she does about 4 trips each time.
    Then there is the banging of her garage door as she disposes of glass bottles in her garage. Whenever she gets in her car, she needs to open and close at least 4 doors.


  • Registered Users Posts: 97 ✭✭Good jib!

    Gotta fill those ten minutes and two seconds somehow!

    My TA? Youtube videos that last 10:02, it reminds me that I'm just a target for advertising as opposed to someone just enjoying a few videos. :(

    That’s pretty impressive. My omelettes usually turn into scrambled eggs.

    I would put money on it being starlings. They are UNBELIEVABLY noisy.

    When your shopping, and you hand over your bank card for the shop keeper to tap.

    Shop keeper : would you mind if I tap?

    Me:No problem at all, work away

    Then the shop keeper bends the **** out of your card against the machine

    It came to ahead today when I always hand it over and give permission and a few times the shop keeper holds it against it flat(no problem) but today the latest person bent it so much it look like it was going to snap.

    So I said you would mind if it was placed flat please because i think it's going to break soon?

    And that's literally what I said and she looked at me as if I insulted her entire family.

    Why do some shop keepers inisit on *bending the card*

    Ahhh

    Bloody just tap myself in future

    Just stop bending people's bank cards

    Bit of a niche one, but when you collect your monthly prescription from the chemist and find they’ve given you syringe injections instead of pens.

    I have been the victim of credit card fraud 2x now.
    My bankcards will only leave my hands when they use a crowbar.

    I ll tap. And otherwise i ll pin.

    I'm sad that I didn't see someone and I don't know why. We don't even know each other .

    Also I ran out of auburn eyebrow pencil . ta the scarcity of redhead makeup .

    AND my madonna piercing stud is too long but it's going to be a b1tch to work out what length I need so I can order one , and I don't think I can get it out anyway .

    I'm like a bag of angry wasps now

    People that pull up at busy gas stations to fill their car, then get in to pay and don't come back for 10 minutes because they get coffee, a roll and smokes. Just move your goddamn car to one of the parking spots so people can fill their cars!

    Also jobs.ie. Put alerts for Wexford and South Leinster on, get bombarded with mails for jobs in D2, the IFSC and some other badly accessible parts of Dublin.

    I can always tell when a guy in the office wants a chat. First he'll turn around in his chair and stare at everyone like a sick puppy, then sigh loudly and maybe even shake his head. And when we still all ignore him he'll get up from his chair, adjust his belt, and walk over to the nominee with a chuckle to begin the bantz.

    I can feel him looking at me right now. Trying to catch my eye so he can begin.

    Start a fit of coughing/sneezing or wheezing - doubt he'll want to talk to you with that going on.

    Those radio ads for Ben Dunne gyms

    Why does he hate Flyefit so much? And why does he keep giving percentages instead of actual prices?

    I hear those and wonder if he has an interest in Flyfit, otherwise, why the constant 'free' publicity?

    Do we have the same neighbour? Sounds oddly familiar to one of mine...only this could be a all hours....damn lunatics.
