Probably couldn't get an Imam or a Rabbi?

Trying to get a rucksack and no dimensions or capacity on the info 😡 I am buying this to take over from my last long serving donkey that had both clearly displayed.

The priest should just tell them all to **** off, while singing Tragedy by the Bee Gees.

Edit ...spell tragedy correctly + Another TA , can't spell tragedy

Shower curtains and the way they keep trying to grab you when you are in the shower. Staying with a relative who still has a curtain on their shower!

Our shower is over the bath and has a curtain too. Yeah - PITA - or more like sticks to your arse.

The dark evenings are creeping in and the clocks change in a few weeks.

replacement ear pads for my good headphones…including delivery, €25.50 a pair.

My plan was to buy two sets to keep in a drawer for when required to replace as required… €51.00 for four pieces of plastic and foam….

The headphones, incredible sound I love them…are just 4 months old and ear pads just beginning to show wear / cracking. I wear them exercising so it’s the sweat that’s accelerating the wear…but maybe every 4 months needing to replace the pads on them ? Hmmmmmm not impressed…..

The Continental Op

Went to my appointment for a hearing test - after confirming first I had in fact been correctly referred for an issue with my conk.

Guess what I got - a fcuking hearing test. Next they'll probably treat me for a tape recorder up my nose.

I just had the hearing test as I was there. Will make another waste of time appointment with my doctor and get referred again as I can't see them sorting this out in the hospital.

Deja Boo

My "boss" pushes my buttons like no other, such ridiculous relentless demands are making me feel like Jim here.

My ongoing trivial annoyance is clocking in and out at work. Since the company's network was hacked last April, the system for logging the clockings isn't saving to the cloud, so the information can't be collected. The annoying thing is that we are still expected to clock in at the machine. Why?!? "We can still collect the information from the machines manually." But that isn't happening…so why do we still have to clock in?

It wasn't a drill but it wasn't a fire. The main thing is that I survived. Phew!!! 🔥😂🔥

Either that or it's a local councillor who also clearly didn't know them, though there'd be a slightly better chance he/she did.

It's a bit like old election days when RTE's rural correspondents used to talk about a 'teatime rush' and 'places where they still eat dinner in the middle of the day'.

It was properly dark when I woke up this morning. Back on goes the sunrise alarm clock!

It's a TA when I forget the spoon in the pot and it gets too hot to handle.

And they usually they spout out generic statements like "this is a very close knit community which has been plunged into darkness today. He was a pillar of the local community and a very active member of the local GAA club"

Pauliedragon

Or some guy beats his wife to death and nearly every comment from the locals is "he was a quiet lad. Kept to himself mostly. You'd see him down the local having the odd pint" If he kept to himself you didn't know him so he could be a serial killer for all you know.

stayed awake to watch the first part of the cricket at stupid o’clock this morning.

Seriously wish I hadn’t bothered, it was beyond one sided. I’m yet to shake the tiredness.

Went to make dinner and left a bottle of lucozade sport lying on the end of my bed that I’d just had one mouthful of. Came back to find it leaking on the cover, slow drip leak, I’m cursing myself for not closing it properly…but I examine the bottle, it 100% was closed properly, flip cap is faulty. Opened it, resealed it, turning it on its side again…. still a bit leaking… 🤌🏻

I found a plastic bag in my house that had a few unusual bits in it, when I realised that they were things I had bought in a local Asian shop about two months ago. I said to myself that I'd make use of one of the items, Hot Madras powder, just to try it out since I was planning on making a curry anyway.

I brought it into the kitchen, got the various bits and pieces ready, and when I needed to use the Madras powder I couldn't find it. I spent five minutes looking for it, checking both rooms I had been in, but gave up so I continued with my regular method.

Everything was soon ready and plated up, and as I went to start my meal, the Madras powder suddenly appeared in front of me. Had it skipped into another dimension and returned as soon as the danger passed? I dunno… 🤔

Something similar happened here yesterday evening. I had 2 eggs left in the box, took one out to fry ,got distracted for a moment and then couldn't find the egg , after searching for a few minutes I took the last egg out of the box and threw away the box. Just as I had plated up the initial egg appeared on the work top exactly where I had looked for it..glad to read your post to confirm its not me going crazy....hopefully. 😁

That's a complete PITA. However a word from the wise, ditch soft drinks for water & herbal teas. All that processes sugar is doing much worse to your insides than it did to your bedsheets. And you can always wash the bedsheets !!

P.s. ' there's none is so pure , as a reformed hoor!!'

More head wrecking than trivial. Neighbours have gone out and left their dog that suffers with separation anxiety. Barking non stop since 19:30 and it's one of those loud, high pitched barks to make it even worse. Some people should not have animals.

People using umbrellas in the city centre are generally pretty annoying as it is. But people using umbrellas in the city centre with their heads buried in their phones can FRO. Bonus twat points if it's a golf umbrella 🤬

The Lucozade is screwing your brain too. Sunset Yellow colouring affects brain activity negatively.

My ongoing TA is that everything affects everything negatively, if you believe everything you read.

Moreso my TA is having people telling other's what they should and shouldn't be consuming.

Let people just enjoy what they like.
