When someone sitting on your inside on public transport keeps foostering so you can't relax spending the whole time thinking they are about to stand up and ask you to move.

When same person waits until the tram is actually stopped to decide they are alighting and jumps up and expects you to move out of their way with lightning speed. F*ck off would ya.

Pre 10am meetings requiring me to be innovative. No. :mad:

My mam asking me at every opportunity, "but where do you get your protein" - I don't mind being asked once but I have lost count of the number of times I have explained to her that yes while veggies tend to get LESS protein than Omni's, they still get ENOUGH. It's not as if meat is the only source of protein. And then I tell her that cows get their protein from a plant based diet and really she is only getting their protein second hand, which I think is a compelling argument.... until she looks at me and again says, "but where do you get your protein?" - yaaaaarrrgh!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

People not replying to you on Whatsapp even though you know they have seen the message.

The function on whatsapp that causes annoyance by telling you someone has seen your message.

Actually, just whatsapp.

Actually, just people.

This happened to me yesterday, but anyway..
Me: Hi Mam, I'm going as far as the shop if you need anything.
Mam: No I don't need anything thanks though.
So I drive to the shop in the pelting rain. Can't get parking in the car park so have to park across the road. I dash into the shop and do a quick runaround. Run back to the car and am so wet the rain is dripping from my nose. Check my phone when I get to my car..
Mam: actually could you get me 2ltr milk, bottle of bleach and something nice.
:rolleyes:

"when you have children..."
"you'll change your mind..."
"you don't know what you want until you have one..."
"oh you'll change your mind. I always said I'd never get married or have children but look at me now"
Yes, LOOK AT YOU NOW - an advertisement for exhaustion and misery. The same person literally never shuts up about being tired and broke. Every Monday, it's the same complaints about ferrying the children around all weekend, having no money until payday and dying to go to bed that night.
Yes, oh please let me join your club, it sounds marvellous!

The worst is when people tell you you wont understand the love for a child until you have one. Yes I get it, you'd die for them. I wouldn't want to love anyone so much I would die for them, I love myself too much :P

I take the same straightforward view of dying as I do of camping. I do not want to do it!

SAMTALK · 23-08-2017 10:27AM

People who just wont listen because of course they're 100% right and so there cannot be another view

That newsreader on RTE1 who keeps saying "Nordern Oireland"

Grrrrr....

And the glint in their eye when they give you *that look*, the look that all parents must be taught before they leave the hospital with their newborn. The look that's supposed to encourage everyone else to be just like them because it's so "wonderful".

Another TA is when I tell people I hate children and they continue trying to convince me I should have one. Really? The exhaustion and misery has obviously affected their brainpower.

Fcuking raw onions all over my salad. Bah humbug.

Jimmy Carr has a good line for that.

"When are you having kids?"

"Oh we can't have kids. Well...... not the way we do it anyway"

My TA. Could we please ban the use of the word "snowflake" in Boards discussion threads?* it's beyond cringeworthy at this stage

*apart from the weather forum

Been there, says more about them than you. Spent the time they were talking kids/shoes/partners, looking up courses to do, so when I left it was for a job that paid wayyyyyyyy more.

TA this stuff still happening, no doubt ppl still saying its not.

SusieBlue · 23-08-2017 01:39PM

TA at myself. My OH has to go away for 2 weeks with his job and I'm acting like a spoilt, needy child. Its not that I'm annoyed he's going or anything, I'll just miss him a lot. I need to get a life

dropping an item, bending down to pick item up and as you are standing back up, you drop the item again!

just wait until you get old and standing back up makes you dizzy.

The endless, repetitive hype around the McGregor vs Merryweather fight.

(Anyway, I thought "fight" implied some form of physical combat, but it seems to refer to news headlines and press conferences. A bit of a damp squib really. Are they planning to actually climb into a ring at some point?)
