    Someone's doing a poo next to me and there's a lot of grunting and gulping going on. The gulping is kind of disturbing me...

    Vocal fry. Was listening to an interesting podcast last night but had to switch off because the presenter sounded like she was trying to push her words out of her backside.

    People who raise the pitch of their words at the end of a statement so it sounds like they are asking a question. It's infuriating. It's also starting to appear in text format with people actually using a question mark instead of a full stop to infer raised pitch.

    TW; Pet death.

    Vet's bollixed up organising girl dog's cremation. They have had the body for two and a half weeks waiting for info that was given to them three times, twice the day of and again the day after!

    If that isn't annoying enough, this means another threeish week wait and more stress over where to put the ashes and how to pick them up(the return depot is hard to get to on public transport)

    I am sick to death of emailing colleagues asking two or three questions and only getting a response to the first question in the reply. I could send an email per question but I shouldn't have to because I expect professional adults to able to read, comprehend and reply to a three sentence email.


    It's something I've noticed in the past, but I've used it to my advantage by, for example, having a proposal in the second and third question and asking the person to let me know if they disagree with my proposed action.



    No reponse means they're ok with it! ;)

    People who reserve sunloungers by the pool with beach towels early in the morning while on holiday.

    Or people who do it in leisure centres.
    Hang your towel on a hook. If you're not on the lounger, it isn't yours.

    I worked with a guy like that before, I. He was, what is called a “middle stalwart”. He’d wait right outside the middle stall until it was free. Terrible etiquette.

    Once he was in he’d gulp, burp and make some other strained noises. Followed by some loud, wet, “toilet” ones.

    He would spend a lot of time in there, this didn’t go unnoticed by management. It was one of the factors in the decision not to renew his contract. While it was known that he suffered from some form of “IBS”, his conduct in the bathroom was unforgivable.

    The tide is turning…

    In the process of moving from Limerick back to Tipp, I seem to have somehow misplaced my Beats speaker that was a Christmas present. Asked bf if he took it by mistake, but he hasn’t. It wasn’t in the apartment and it’s not at home. No idea where it could be but I’ll be absolutely sickened if I can’t find it

    How can it be that shipping charges out of the country are so brutal?! I have a few bits I wanna flip on ebay and the market is bigger in the UK but holy cow even just a small packet costs an arm and a leg!

    I don't wanna deal with adverts or donedeal, my nerves couldn't take that at the minute.

    I don’t know why but I just feel like this time of year is severely depressing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 939 ✭✭✭bitofabind


    im in my 30s and STILL taken by surprise when after a few days of spiralling emotions, mood swings, random tears on demand and a monstrous appetite, my period suddenly arrives and I'm like "AH. THAT'S WHY. LOL"

    I need to brush my teeth but there’s a wardrobe in the doorway of the bathroom where my toothbrush is


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,292 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    How did it get there?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,748 ✭✭✭Deebles McBeebles


    No one is sure but Kitty's toothbrush is now in the place where her wardrobe was.

    The fact that, this December, it will be 11 years since Channel 6 shut its doors.

    People voting for “sour cream” and “cheese and onion” over far superior flavoured crisps, and corn snacks.

    Frightful, and deviant, behaviour.

    Not being able to relax around certain people because they are the type to constantly b1tch about everyone behind their backs and you see them watching and listening to everything - and judging.

    People who text back way too fast. Like before you can even put your phone away again.

    Being told "there's no need to be that way" when I mention my anxiety. I don't need to be like that? Really?? Oh grand, I'll just stop then (rolls eyes until they get stuck up there).

    Maybe its because I don't live in Ireland anymore and am very rarely able to get them, but what could possibly be nicer than cheese and onion?

    Bacon Fries, Meanies, Discos, McCoys salt and vinegar, Pringles salt and vinegar, Space Raiders, Crunchos, Burger Bites, Chipsticks, Skips, Nik Naks...the list goes on really.

    It’s not that cheese and onion are bad, I mean, they certainly aren’t disgusting like sour cream, but they’re the type of crisp you’d have a bag off and could go without them for another year.

    Ignore them all Rosie, it's the only way.

    I had someone push me aside to march past me on the street. I wasn't moving particularly slowly but I wasn't up to an argument so now I'm TA'd with myself for letting them away with it.

    TA at impatient tosspots, and at myself.

    TAd at the little prick you called to my work in person to express his discust and disappointment at not receiving a reply to TWO emails he sent - he was basically looking for free stuff for a private party. Turns out that my colleague, spoke to him on the phone and explained that we couldn't help him.
    He went on to tell me that he's been badmouthing the company around the place.
    He came in person to tell me all this.
    Never met or spoke to him before.

    I'm actually rather proud of myself for keeping cool and not telling you to fcuk the fcuk off.
    He'd have been straight onto facetwit if I had.

    Wait until that option is taken away from you and you'll never under-appreciate cheese and onion again

    And as for your choices, some decent ones in there, but Discos and to a lesser extent Pringles? Mank
