Zero Tolerance.......

cannotlogin

Think the world has gone a bit mad lately and we are indulging every little snowflake going, can't say anything negative for fear of being labelled racist, sexist, bigoted etc.

So who is on your zero tolerance list.

Mine:

1. ISIS returners - you go join ISIS you forfeit all rights to return

2. Teenage Scrots - if we can't punish the child as they are underage, punish the parents who should have more control over their kids

3. Femists/International Women's Day cheerleaders - we live in Ireland, women aren't oppressed - come back to me when there are gender quotes for mechanics, blocklayers, binmen etc.

4. Social Welfare moochers - if you can't provide for yourself, take what you get. A Foreva home with 4 bedrooms is not for you.

5. All things Kardashian

6. People who move car mirrors - if you have to move my mirrors to park either your driving is ****e or you should park somewhere else!

Probably feel most strongly about number 6! :-)

agree with everything bar post 5 and 6
5.. the Kardashians can be safely tolerated(ignored) think of them as an extra tax on the stupid
6. its good sense to fold in your wing mirrors in case someone who is bad at parking knocks them off

dxhound2005

If wing mirrors weren't supposed to fold, God would not have created a folding mechanism.

7. Usage of “snowflake” while moaning

i agree with everything except no 6. i presume you mean adjusting the angle to get a better view. that can be handy sometimes. i often turn out my mirrors on the motorway to reduce the blind spot. you couldnt drive like that normally but its very handy on a motorway

I would generally agree except for number 3. Have a conversation with women with some responsibility in the workplace and a man in a similar position, polar opposite experiences.

Same goes for simple things such as going to interviews,etc.

I once moved the wing mirror of a badly parked luxury SUV and accidentally caused the stupid thing to fall to the ground. For the benefit of easily-trolled posters on here who will inevitably get hilariously annoyed about an apocryphal anecdote from a stranger on the internet, about something that may or may not have happened to another stranger's Range Rover Vogue, eighteen years ago, I would like to add that I moved it with my foot. Several times. In both directions, before it eventually dropped off and shattered on the ground.

I am a woman with responsibility in the workplace!!! A job I got before quotas, female bias etc., the same job available to any man/woman who had a similar skill set, experience and was prepared to put in the effort.

Ihave conversations with friends and colleagues with resonsibility all the time but I'm not sure what you mean.

Might want to move on from that story, dude. Don’t want to become the Boards equivalent of a barstool bore; boring people to tears recalling something you once did when you were a young fella.

OP maybe you should take all that to the TA thread.

"Traveller culture"

Get an education so you can not be reliant on the state from cradle to grave

Control your emotions, stop getting involved in life long feuds, actually you probably do it out of boredom due to having no education required to get a job

Also include zero tolerance for "Traveller culture" apologists

I find that if you are assertive automatically you are seen as being a "bitch" or "on your period" (this was said in an email sent by mistake to a family member). If you are nice (just generally pleasant) a lot of men think you are giving them the go ahead to hit on you. My partner is also in a managerial position and we have found that we cannot take similar approaches with staff and colleagues as they are interpreted in completely different ways.


I have personally been asked during interviews who was going to look after my children when I am in work. My partner has never been asked anything similar. Have been told by a man during an interview, that my job entailed more than "looking pretty" and still offered me the job which I obviously rejected. He seemed puzzled also by the fact that I wanted to go on to do a masters degree (earlier on in my career).
Had my personal space grossly invaded (moving my chair from across the table to beside the person, and hand placed on my leg. He proceeded to give me his personal number "because I didn't need an interview, the job was mine"...and I could go on...

No it doesn't happen often at all, just annoyed when it does considering it's unneccessary 9 times out of ten.

If I have a lot of baggage it's news to me but whatever you think! 🙄

LOLz at some of you here!

There is a thread called "trivial things that annoy you". Over there with you and avoid duplication of angst.

But then again posters on that thread cannot chat or engage with each other for some strange reason. But still, all angles of every annoying thing on the planet are covered.

Not sure what kind of conversations you're hoping to have! I prefer the former almost every time.

Oh and queues!

It must be nice to live in a mind where everything can be solved by a binary answer and there are no grey areas.

Ellie_is_a conniving little_bitch bitch!

Next year when Aer Lingus give women priority boarding on international women's day (as they always do), I will be booking a cheap, same day return flight from DUB to CDG or LCY and walking to the top of the queue for priority boarding, when they go to send me back for not being a woman, I'll say that I identify as one. When they refuse I'll raise hell. I'll use their logic against them.

It's funny how they always give women priority boarding on IWD but never do the equivalent on international men's day.

I was going to ask you what a femist is but I remembered Google and found this in Urban Dictionary.

"femist
A person who hates feminists. Similar to people who hate others of different races are called racists.
Marc Lepine was a femist who hated feminists. Before shooting 14 students at École Polytechnique, Lepine shouted "you're all a bunch of feminists"."

So yeah I agree with you on femists. Useless bunch of twats who shouldn't be allowed waste oxygen.

And just so you know, feminism isn't all about oppression. Stop listening to sound bites and do a bit of reading and maybe even talking to the women in your life if there are any.

super_furry

Weird internet folk who spend their lives creating hundreds of new accounts each week to try and push a creepy anti-women, American style alt-right agenda because they watched too much YouTube.

A game I like to play with myself (not that one, no) is trying to guess who thanked an OP like this, before I take a look.

Some i can guess, most are usually 'new' here.

You do seem to have a lot of Baggage , certainly not all of it would fit inthat handbag you just threw.

People who smoke at the door of a restaurant. F*ck off. F*ck all the way off.

People who can't park properly and take up two spaces.

Women leaving public toilets looking like the scene from Trainspotting. WTF is wrong with you?

The person who lets their big white dog (Samoyed or Akita I'm guessing) loose outside their gate on the main road to Caragh in Naas. He is going to be killed, you f*cking idiot.

People who don't know how to use a roundabout.

People.

Guinness drinkers: Cause when you're in a round with one you have to wait an extra 3 mins before you get to go back to the table, then they tell you if its a good pint or not and then go on to tell you where they've have the best / worst pint of Guinness - like i give a sh*t

Pebbles in a driveway. pebbles get onto the path (and onto the road)

If your mirrors are adjusted properly to eliminate blind spots, they can be useless for parking. Only when you're parking in an empty car park though
