    bohemians football team. In the derby it’s 0-0 vs Rovers, but Bohs happy to make a dogs dinner of each and every good attacking situation / chance… look very competent and decent in ‘getting’ forward but absolute rabbit in headlights style blind panic / incompetence when they look like scoring / should be scoring….been like this for years. A naive bunch. Every through ball or cross is over hit, again as I type, then Rovers go score as I type 😅. Everything just half arsed or naive with Bohs.

    That the City Arsenal game is still being talked about incessantly in the British media and on their sports radio.

    Walked past someone's almost finished new but needlessly large and ugly house earlier, what had he stuck in the corner of his lawn to be? A gorilla.

    That's right. A life size statue of a fúcking gorilla. Are you 10 years old?

    They're possibly a primatologist with a passing interest in horticulture and a poor taste in architecture.

    There's an elephant on the side of the road in Leitrim heading towards Carrigallan, I'd love to know what the story with it is.

    Making my morning coffee only for the milk to curdle . Means I have to get dressed and go to the shop

    people with noisy hobbies. An elderly relative collects time pieces, clocks and watches. Very old antiques in the main but newer ones too.

    If you are in their place you could be sat back initially relaxed and chilled, enjoying a nice drink only for some random alarm, mega loud chime or similar to be going off every 15 minutes… they periodically do repairs on them and it’s part of the ‘process’ but I think they forget to deactivate the alarm sometimes.. if I ever go deaf I’ll be blaming them in part.

    Had to go to the local rip-off place to print off a file, I was very clear on what I wanted and went to browse the rest of the shop, once half of the doc was printed I was given it to inspect, it was double sided(that is a disaster!!). I asked that the next doc was single-sided which it was, and asked for the receipt and it showed both the single and double-sized printing was charged at the same rate and was that was the higher rate according to their price list.

    Ta in itself, now my brain is trying to beat me up by double-checking constantly if I asked for it to be single-sided and another part is saying who prints anything without checking with the customer how they wanted it presented on the printer?, ta2 16 pages cost me 10€!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Texting has even ruined graffiti artists “Fuk U” written on a pillar. Annoyed me more than the vandalism itself.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Gutters in town centers!

    There should be a law that makes businesses keep their gutters clear so they don't overspill all over the shoppers on the street.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    My wife always complaining about my body not being suitable for having great sex . . A small part of me knows what she means.

    People who drop, spill or break stuff and then only do a half arsed job cleaning it up… you don’t need a mathematics degree or any advanced levels of physical dexterity to use a brush and a pan… you spill or break something be diligent enough to clean it up 1000%, especially when glass is involved…

    Everywhere stinks this morning. A stink of diesel fumes from the local GAA club for some reason, a stink of boiled cabbage farts from the sewer line running under the road on the way to the bus stop, and a stink of putrid tobacco smoke from some smoking twat at the bus stop.

    Thinking boards couldn't get any less user friendly and then hit with forums that can't be accessed.

    Some shîtshow!.

    Because I'm dyspraxic, Im constantly overfill things and in this case my morning mug. So I get to where Im going and head back for tissue to dry up the dribbles on the lino. Every single am, I get the same angry look from the same person pointing to their litter basket to illustrate that in the 5 seconds since I went past their desk they have "cleaned up" for me.

    Ta It was literally 5 seconds and ta2 they'll be over at coffee break to give me a lecture on my stupidity bc I can't fill a cup properly! As they are here most of this month, no doubt I'll get the be more careful, someone could have slipped on that "spill" lecture.

    Been going to different companies getting quotes for stuff I need doing in the house. One company keeps ringing me and it's driving me mad!

    I have your quote, if I want your business, I'll call you. The hard sell is annoying.

    When you have a 30 minute appointment that starts late but yet finishes bang on time. 😖

    Got out of the car at the petrol station just at the right timing for an ice cream wrapper in the sideways wind to hit me right the face. Sticky side too :(

    Fixed shower heads in hotel bathrooms. Especially if they don't give you a shower cap. Sometimes I just want a quick shower to freshen up, not to wash my hair.
