I hate those huge big wide cups that don't keep coffee hot longer than 5 seconds, and they have this ridiculously tiny handle that is both too small to hold and too small to get a finger through. Give me a f*cking mug with a big handle.

I do appreciate that more places are serving the compostable takeaway cups now, which makes me feel less guilty.

There's a place in the kildare outlets that serve coffee in a bowl with no handles. I nearly had a meltdown when the lad set it down. Had a bit of a rant to one of the managers who changed it for a takeaway cup....so still no handle and now I'm sitting down with plates, cutlery and a takeaway cup. Had a rant on tripadvisor and turns out I wasn't the only one who thought it was ridiculously stupid.

I'm no tree hugger but people who get takeaway cups to sit down at cafes are assholes.

What about ***** in cities who drive 5km to work? Or around the corner to the local shop?

They probably thought you were in for the duration while the missus spent your Christmas bonus. F*ck, a cup won't be enough for him, give him a feckin bowl of the stuff...

Huge shout. Absolutely correct. Those ultra-wide coffee cups are one of the worst inventions ever

I think they are a thing from the south east of France. Or at least that's where I saw them first many moons ago.

Yous are all a bunch of whinging oul bollockses.

Nothing wrong with wide cups, handle less cups or takeaway cups.

I'll stay here on my high perch with my bamboo reusable coffee cup, don't you worry.

I guess an Ulster fan would take any cup on offer.

The lack of any prolonged cold period so far this year has meant the bugs haven't been killed off....

Surely you meant bugs as in insects?
Why would cold weather kill off microorganisms?
I would have thought the colds and flu viruses activate in the winter more than any other time of the year.

People who shouldn't be allowed in town when I'm trying to do my entire christmas shopping this afternoon....

The elderly, parents with prams and small kids, the infirm, northsiders, culchies, hipsters, people with dogs, Carol singers, junkies, "goys" in leinster jerseys, tourists, people wearing christmas jumpers, cyclists, motorists, people taking selfies, stoners, tracksuited youths (see northsiders).

Basically anyone who isn't me.

It's almost dystopian.

Future generations in the UK will look back at this in horror. It's so mortifying, mean spirited and stupid.

I'm not sure I can recall a couple of days of worse posting on this forum in the last few years. Utter sh*te due to 5-10 posters across multiple threads.

If I'm one of those posters, I do apologise.

I've been a bit of a **** lately.

Have to agree. The ignore button is useless when there's people quoting them and getting into 2 page nonsense arguments

It's Christmas, and I've barely been online - had the toddler at the GP and he has the flu, so he's barely been off my lap since, temp over 40 etc. So I haven't had 5 minutes to read threads, and I'm sure the other lads are also busy over Christmas. We can't read every post, we rely on reported posts a lot of the time to step in and act. But I can count one hand the number of reported posts in the last week or so. If you're going to bitch about the standard of posting, at least report said posts so mods can do something about it.
