People who "share memories" of an anniversary of something that happened on their timeline on facebook.

I didn't care two years ago so safe to say I don't care now.

Worse still are the people who "throwback" to an event that happened a matter of days ago. ****.

I've not read the 258 pages so this could have been and probably was mentioned.

People who use the word hash tag. # tosser.

The guy who said to me in one of those egregiously affected D4 accents in October 2001 about the Brothers Karamazov: "You should have read it in Russian as it was much better." Gilt-edged, 24-karat gold wanker.

People who cough at you while talking to you and don't bother to cover their mouths. ****.

EagererBeaver · 09-09-2016 07:51AM

I do a lot of work with a particular ethnicity where snorting to clear the nose is perfectly acceptable in public, during meetings etc. My skin crawls every time.

People who go on and on and on and on about Fantasy Football, seems picking their team of a Friday afternoon/evening is the highlight of their weekend.

Wankbags! :rolleyes:

I hate surly staff who seem to think that they are doing you a massive favour by serving you. In shops, pubs, restaurants etc

I was in a pub recently. It was mid afternoon and the place was quiet. The barmaid was chatting to her mate and it was a few minutes before she came over to serve me (even though she'd seen me). She then greeted me with 'yeah' at which point I decided to walk out and take my custom elsewhere.

# I didn't actually walk out. Being Irish I simply begrudgingly paid for my pint and drank it.

Assholes who don't practice good phone etiquette.

I've people ringing here at work who don't say hello or state who they are, they just start mumbling incoherently. It's like pulling teeth trying to extract information out of them

I feel like saying to them- 'Speak into the phone properly and clearly state your business, your communication skills are appalling.

People who post lines such as 'Is this supposed to news?' in the comments sections of free news websites (Newstalk, the Journal etc). A headline exists so that you get a fair idea about what the article is about. Therefore, don't read the fcuking thing and subsequently complain about it

Tom_Barry · 15-09-2016 03:56PM

People who constantly go on and on and ooon about how great they are, how they were the reason various ppl thrived in life, how people constantly tell them how great they are :rolleyes: I like to refer to these people as Forrest Gumps.

Particularly Irish phenomena. Virulent around these parts.

Anyone on holidays in a foreign country who won't bother their balls saying "hello" or "thank you" in that country's language. It's nothing but courtesy.

No, it isn't.

The bus driver didnt want to let me off at my stop because he had a time table to keep, wanted me to stay till the next stop. Prick of the highest order

That's not humblebragging and it's not Irish. Humblebragging is someone complaining it takes three weeks to order in replacement parts on their Ferrari, or that they don't want to go to a wedding because they'll have to buy new Louboutins for it

Pac1Man · 16-09-2016 11:10AM

I was held up this morning by a cyclist who wouldn't use the cycle lane. He then broke the red light and did that circus balancing move they all do while waiting for a space in the incoming traffic.

I was hoping he would fall and rip his sponsored lycra.

Both of ye are wrong about what humble bragging is.

Too many signs to mention but the bus strike has really brought out the wanker in a lot of drivers. :mad:

I disagree. Clickbait is a tosser.

I was held up this morning by many motorists who wouldn't use the motorway. They then broke the red lights (88% of those picked up breaking red lights by the Luas cameras were motorists, not cyclists). I didn't spend much time checking out what clothes the drivers were wearing, as the clothing of other road users doesn't interest me much. Tossers.

I wouldn't advise spending any time looking if you're a cyclist. You could have a very unfortunate accident.

They usually have a northern accent. That's usually warning enough for me.
