    I know some people who ran into her on different occasions. They smiled and said Hello. She wouldn't even look at them.

    TA to realise I'm probably guilty of accidentally doing a Mairead Mc Guinness myself . Probably not if I actually heard someone say hello . More like being far too deep in thought . Or trying too hard to avoid potential d1ckheads (strangers) that I overlook the nice ones .

    The guilt :(

    I think once of the times was at the ploughing or something similar. They were no protests/etc. She just thought she was above people.(Now she could be lovely).

    You did say trivial so....

    when people don´t cover their mouths while coughing
    when my husband walks around the house leaving all the lights on
    shop assistants etc who don´t give you any eye contact at the checkout

    I don't actually know who she is tbh...been accused of that myself ...implied anyway . i don't even recogise people , i have occasional memory problems . would happily talk to anyone actually . Some people seem very ready to think I dislike them. it's odd.

    The cow outside having no respect for the fact that it's a bank holiday Monday.
    The birds having no respect for the fact that it's a bank holiday Monday.
    The local dogs having no respect for the fact that it's a bank holiday Monday.
    My internal clock having no respect for the fact that it's a bank holiday Monday.

    Having to get up at 5:00 to go to work on a wet, miserable, bank holiday Monday.

    Quick question : I was driving through town today when a little girl (around 6 or 7) pressed the button on the pedestrian lights while walking past with her mam. They went red and I had to wait, while the little girl glanced over her shoulder and gave a smug smile. Would running her over have been an over-reaction?

    On mondays, killing people is never an over-reaction.

    Preferably run the mother over who should have been minding her .

    Went to the gym this morning for first time in months as I’ve been doing mostly running lately. On the treadmill, all the others were free and some guy decided to use the one right beside mine. Then tried to chat to me. G’way outta that.

    Boss being a total unnecessary dick to me and a colleague during a meeting. Scolding us like schoolchildren. Beginning to hate where I work, which isn’t something I thought I’d say.

    Why oh why are there videos for everything? Clicked on a link expecting a recipe only to discover I need to watch some video (which didn't work either). Last time I checked one read a recipe unless it's complicated or it's by some some high faluting chef!

    People who dont say or post anything in a WhatsApp group, but when you check the settings they are nearly always first to read a message. Same goes for Snapchat. Never post anything, but are nearly always the first to see a pic.

    One for the day that's in it - DIY and home/garden suppliers who close on a June bank holiday! I was flabbergasted to see McCarthy's in Tramore as quiet and empty as my pockets.

    On the flipside. People doing noisey outdoor work on a Sunday or bank holiday. Or unsociable hours. Neighbour here a few houses over last week sawing kindling at 8 on a Saturday morning. Wont be lighting fire again til end of September. Poor man cant sit down in his own house. Prick.

    Forgetting to turn off the 7am alarm and waking up on a Bank Holiday Monday morning and there no need for it.

    (Also forgetting to turn offf the 7.25 back up alarm and waking up all over again)

    I don't know if it is something about their generation or what (also see it with people of similar age on public transport), but both of my parents (both 55) seem absolutely incapable of moderating their voice when on a telephone call. They bloody roar down the phone, and no matter how many times you explain to them that the person they're talking to is on the other end of the line and not on the ****ing moon it doesn't make a blind bit of difference.

    At least they don’t walk around with their heads stuck in a phone all day:rolleyes:


    Hopefully.

    Actually they're both worse for being on their phones; I don't even have a smartphone. Anyways...

    Because pack mules aren't allowed in shops.

    TA: Clothes shops that don't have partner seats.
