    Jaguar drivers. Apart from those who drive classic cars the rest of them seem to have a 'King of the Road' complex.

    No one that I know got a job after an interview which they described as "went really well". You might still get it.

    TA that it's ****ing rain, followed by the sun beating down, I've to walk the dogs and haven't a clue what to wear!

    Stupidity and feminists.
    The assumption there's a godgiven right to be as stupid as possible but it's everyone else's responsibility to support you through it?
    Can't live on the handouts the states giving you? God forbid someone suggest "get a job" - that's not very helpful to someone who feels they should supported in their right to stay at home with their children like it's some god given right. Oh don't you know in some countries the governments pay stay at home mothers a wage to not work! Lord save us as if they need any extra incentive to have children they can't afford.

    Get caught claiming lone parents/dole when you're not entitled to it? Scumbag social welfare having the actual cheek to ask for money back that was stolen from the taxpayer. It's clearly victimisation, picking on people. You're entitled to dole and wages, you're entitled to claim lone parents while your baby daddy brings home a weeks wages.

    I could keep going but I'll actually give myself a stroke so I may stop. How would you be well dealing with that?

    TA x 1000, when I asked the person who thinks of me as their "go to" person for shift changes to change shift with me next week, as its one of my long term foster girl's stag weekend and I want to show my face for the last pm, she says of course! an hour later I overheard her complaining that SHE has to work an extra night to keep me happy and its not like its even MY CHILD.
    Just cause I didn't give birth to her doesn't mean that she's not my daughter by now.

    *am now a party pooper because I refused to go to a fundraiser for a colleague, Im a known animal lover and cant bring myself to go to greyhound racing knowing what happens when the dogs retire/dont make the grade.

    Weak handshakes. Just gives me the creeps

    Waiting behind someone a an atm, wondering how it can possibly take so long for someone to take out cash.

    I waxed one of my legs but didn't do the other one. Now im booked in for a last min wax because I'm having tan done tomorrow, and I have two annoyances

    I'm paying full price wax prices for one leg
    I wore tinkerbell knickers today so I'll have to run into dunnes and buy a grown up pair of knickers incase your one doing the waxing thinks there's a bit of a want in me with cartoon knickers and a smooth leg
    Why do I have to be so weird

    Should NEVER wear underwear straight from a shop, I found bugs in a pair of jocks once, think of where they're made and conditions of the workshops, don't imagine the crew or shop on Corrie...:eek:

    + 1 on that.

    Bought a set of jocks in Sri Lanka and put one of them on 'from the wrapping'

    About three hours later on a bus to Kandy felt my ballbag beginning to ' crawl'

    No kidding, the unit was heaving, and with another 3 hours of the journey left you can imagine my predicament:eek:

    Seemed like there was a cluster of small lads chewing on my nutpurse and when I got to the hostel and ripped the Fcukers off discovered a nest of vicious looking ant like dudes looking kinda pissed off,and angry in the crotch band, while my tackle was spotted and weeping from numerous bites.

    Burned the jocks and salved up the up the nads,but it was a salutary lesson.

    Took about 10 days to regain their lustre.

    FFS :( it'd be just my luck to wake up with the clap.
    My pants full of spiders coming looking for revenge for all the serial spider killings I've carried out.

    Ugh ugh ugh

    You need to be careful with the underwear in general when travelling in tropical climates. Did a quick basin wash on a pair of y's and hung them out the window when staying in a rudimentary hostel in Laos a few years back. Slept in the nip and pulled them on the next morning after a shower. Only took seconds before I realised that there were 'foreign bodies' in the sump.

    Something bit me on the monk's hood and the underside of the purse. Ripped off the y's while screaming and saw that there was already serious swelling. 4 or 5 small ant like creatures were crawling around.

    The local chemist recommended tiger balm,but eventually found a Médecins Sans Frontières hospital where I was given an injection and prescribed a strong course of antibiotics.

    I washed my hair without shampoo, only conditioner last night. It wasn't dirty to start with, but when I dried it it was very dirty. How does that work?

    I had to re wash and dry it again.

    Tiger balm.....for your knob and ballsack ? WTF is wrong with these people.
    It would be like walking around with a lighthouse in your trousers.

    TA - paying for a full leg wax (only needing 1 leg waxed) only to notice she left half my upper leg undone because it was fair and she probably assumed I wouldn't notice. I'm livid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,718 ✭✭✭Iseedeadpixels


    TA'd that I got bad feedback on adverts even though I tried my best to meet him, he claimed I pulled out of the deal and I'm a time waster.....he messaged me at 10.30 last night while I'm asleep apologizing for not replying to me and asking to meet him in Blanch at 8 AM! yeh hold on let me leave my job which I start at 7 to buy something:rolleyes: then blocks me like a coward.

    If Adverts don't remove the bad feedback I'll be even more TA'd:mad:

    Tell me about it! Thought it was a preposterous idea. The swelling had gotten very bad so was glad to find a hospital where rudimentary English was spoken and where antibiotics could be dispensed. I'm convinced I'd have gotten a dose of crotch rot or weeping willy if I hadn't been so proactive.

    Latest annoyance is currently close to my heart. Just out of the toilets in a café in Galway. The fent of shíte off the place was overpowering - some lad was definitely on the stout and snackbox combo last night. Can we not look to Japan and see how they deal with this issue - flushing the toilet dispenses air freshener and avoids people almost fainting from the thick and cloying smell of other people's scutter?

    TA'd that my salary is so bad despite being degree educated, that even though I work a 45 hour week (with a considerable commute) I would financially only be €30 less well off a month if I worked 20 hours part time and claimed the rest in dole, rather than working full time as I am now.

    Also annoyed our country allows this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,506 ✭✭✭Doctor Nick


    TA that this thread has me afraid to put a pair of jocks on. Nice one lads. TA'd that I don't know the shortcode for the cheesy looking emoji.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    TA by someone posting on Facebook: ''Only me could (do X Y or Z silly thing)''

    That can't be right, can it?

    And the fact that she makes such a song and dance about being so ditzy she gets into those situations. I do silly things too but if I was at it that often I'd have words with myself.

    I love watching cute animal video's on YouTube but most of them are ruined with sh!tty music. I want to see and hear the animals not some annoying music.

    TA'ed, well more sad that ppl cant/dont read properly(and I keep forgetting that), I dont mean ppl with reading issues of all kinds, ppl who just DONT read or question their interpretation of things they half read and dont make sense. Followed by a bout of snark or lashing out.
    *Stuck in a long que in the bank as its mechanised, the lady in at the machine in front was having problems with it, no wonder as she was trying to lodge the very thing that the LARGE sign that blocked the screen said the machine wasn't taking!
    *Ppl lashing out without having read a whole document, and then jumping off at other's over what is in essence, their idea of what was said, not what was actually said x1500.
    *Have loads of travelling for work to do the next two weeks, and trains here threatening to strike.
    *Ppl still going on at me cause Im not going to the "dogs" next week, its not like im not contributing to the fund!
    * Feeling like Im the only one Leo Varadkar has not responded too on the #freesafelegal email campaign.
    *Sounding like I may have gotten out of the wrong side of the bed today.
