    Old women that don't understand queueing etiquette. Advanced age doesn't give you a pass to jump the queues. I see it so many times.

    Not being able to sleep after a hectic night shift, I decided I would wash off the stains from yesterday's radiator accident, was washing the bottom of the radiator when I glanced out the window and say the dog taxi pull in, I scream down the stairs to let sib know to have the dogs ready to go. Door opens and dog races past me to "hide", que me having to get up, grab dog and hand her over to taxi. As the door closes sib says "Did someone come in"?

    Fathers' "rights" in Ireland.

    Oh they understand alright, they are just using the age card. :mad:

    In Brazil there is a law that people with kids or old people can skip queues (any queues). It used to drive me mad, we'd be queuing up to pay for parking or whatever and some bint carrying a large child would just waltz up to the top. I was tempted to borrow someone's kid to do the same. TA behaving as if having a kid = having a disability.

    This so much. Even as a woman it annoys me how badly men are treated by the courts and by family mediation services. They are automatically on the back foot.

    My TA is that I've been staring at a screen for so long today, my eyes are fast losing the ability to converge and focus. At least the week's nearly over.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    The feck is a dog taxi?

    The stainless steel milk jugs in cafes for pouring out into the little milk jug. I tipped it up pressing the lever, nothing came out. Tried again without pressing it, nothing came out. I shaked it and there was plenty milk in it so I had to ask how the hell to get the milk out of it. It involved pressing the lever and tipping it up so much that my hand was nearly bent out of joint.

    I drove halfway home today and remembered I had left my bag of shopping at my sister's house.

    Awkward, argumentative 5yr old on such a lovely day:(

    Irish people discussing Irish issues sounding like they are on an American university campus. You see it on boards a lot lately. Red pilled, virtue signalling, liberal left, sjw, msm, cuck etc. A lot of it seems irrelevant to the topic being discussed.

    Trivially annoying for sure.

    TA'ed that when I went back I discovered that I had tracked the black stairs all over the house, thereby tripling my work, just when I was at my tiredest. :mad::mad::mad:

    ....well its a taxi that dogs use.

    typically to go to the dog airport, or the dog hotel for a dog business meeting.

    I feel weird.

    I found a little bird in the middle of the road just sitting there. So I picked him up and brought him inside. The side of his little head us bloody and his eye is kind of closed. When he tries to fly he hits the wall :( I have him in the shed. Just sitting there. I don't know what to do with the poor little lad.

    Out in the back of beyond in Connemara (happy to be!) using my phone for broadband, slow enough but OK, then the laptop decides to download some update crap.

    TA'd that I spent a small fortune on a shellac manicure on Wednesday and two of my nails are chipping already :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,759 ✭✭✭Winterlong


    I am trying to read a book but keep on having to re-read paragraphs. Concentration is gone to muck today.

    Go back. It should be guaranteed for a week.

    TA that I'd love to get shellac but it destroys my nails.

    Get a shoebox and make a little bed for him. Maybe use cotton buds with warm salty water to clean his head even though he'll be nervous and won't sit still.


    The price of shipping for some sites means you buy more. Crazy.

    Politicians being hoisted up on their supporters shoulders when elected. It smacks of celebrating getting their snout into the trough and it looks like public service is the last thing on their minds.

    Go back and they should re do them. Usually means they haven't been capped properly so don't be fobbed off by "you're hard on your hands, oh did you do the washing up with no gloves?" Either the nail wasnt prepped correctly (peeling) or they weren't capped (chipped at the free edge) either way, it's not 14 days.

    TA being starving but not knowing what I want to eat. Everything I think of I'm like NO NO NEXT NO

    I just realised I've been walking around all day with a hole in my trouser arse. TA that i don't have a full length mirror to check is my arse decent before I leave the house.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,618 ✭✭✭erica74


    Clothes shops that stack clothes on top of each other. What I mean is, size 6/8 at the top of the pile and size 16/18 at the bottom of the pile so if you want to pull out a size whatever, you have to pull apart the whole pile. It just makes no sense:confused:
    I went into 3 different shops today wanting to buy jeans and I left empty handed because I just couldn't be arsed pulling apart piles of clothes.

    It's my birthday tomorrow so my husband brought me shopping today and of course, I found nothing. It's always the fucking same, when you've no money, you see loads of lovely things but when you have money, you see nothing wah wah wah!!

    Cars that won't let buses pull away from bus stops. The bus driver has his indicator on and waits patiently at first, then he starts to slowly edge and edge, cars still driving by, then the bus driver has to get a bit more forceful with his edging until he's basically on the road with cars continuing to drive around the bus, then he pulls out and the next car beeps at him. Is the bus supposed to just sit there until there is literally no traffic?!

    People who use the self-service checkout and don't take their receipt. Other shoppers shouldn't have to pick up your rubbish. :mad:

    Leo(in general) and today using dance references to explain why he won't talk about future coalitions. Smacks of self reference criteria.

    *Said dance refs make him sound middle aged and stuffy.
