    The 'always one' who says the same thing in a conversation about in this case a place, while ignoring the other things that need sorting out as well.

    I needed copies of my year end grades, they used to be on our moodle, they are gone now, uni charges 4e to print each year and it takes two week. I feel so ripped off.

    I find my grammar is affected when typing in social media sometimes, I find I type 'you no' instead of 'you know' sometimes, this has happened when doing my blog too and its frustrating, I have to correct it again.

    I've had an earworm of a song in my head all day, do you think I can remember what it was when I get a chance to google.

    Can I fook, completely gone out of my head now.



    Dunno which is more TA, having it go round & round my head, or forgetting what it was in the first place.

    I struggle to differentiate those words if I’m writing quickly. There’s a handful of other words like that too that I struggle with. And I know there’s nothing wrong with my intelligence levels, however full of myself that makes me sound. I’m interested in why people make those language errors.

    So I guess you could say that I’m trivially annoyed at people not scratching below the surface of why people make the spelling mistakes that they do.

    Oh I'm so guilty of this one. I'll rewrite whole paragraphs to get around it.

    I even tried a little rhyme involving a moose still doesn't work.

    Now I blame autocorrect :)

    its hard to stop on a street for 1 minute on a street in the city center.
    without someone asking for money.
    All young people ,well dressed .

    A friend's husband messaging me he can't 'associate' with me as I remain friends with people who owe him money.
    This guy used to be my friend until he developed a drink problem and started shouting abuse at me and his wife. I might meet him briefly at their house if I was calling for her, that's it.
    I responded to the message saying "business as usual then? I haven't 'associated' with you in years because of bullying and abuse."

    People who are unable to do simple household tasks. Make a dinner, light the fire, change a plug, paint, hang a picture, change a bulb in the car. Well educated people, with good jobs, who haven't the hands to wipe their ar$e. How did they manage to get this far? Mammied to within an inch of life.

    Being mocked for picking up a "buffer accent" and not pronouncing the 'h' in "mouth". The p1ss taker doesn't pronounce his 'r's though. Awight?

    I regularly bring homemade lunches/dinners to work with me. The level of surprise that a 36 year old male can cook more than toast is unbelievable. Maybe I'm in the minority.

    Totally agree with the over-mammied ge neration that came after me.

    My oh can cook well and do home and vehicle maintenance but it's the cooking that fascinates me. I love watching him cooking. My 1st ex thought cooking was beneath him. 2nd ex cooked for himself but was quite pampered, his mum cleans his house. But I can't criticise as I changed my 1st lightbulb at the grand age of 26. I know what a plug fuse looks like but not what to do with it. I've got halfway through changing a tyre before willingly let a local man take over. But isn't there an element of nobody ever teaching us in the 1st place?

    Couldn't buy a decent size of white felt anywhere for my craft fair hut. Had to do with large sheet of white paper instead.

    Walking on a trail in a national park, a wildlife refuge, signposted EVERYWHERE... NO off leash dogs and NO bicycles.

    Heaps of people who know better with their unleashed fur babies and a git racing about on a mountain bike.
    Someone even went to the trouble of bringing a can of black spray paint to spray over one of the no off leash dogs signs.

    Lunatics on bicycles keep trying to kill me. Once in Tipp, woodland path to Swiss Cottage. Once in Dublin, eejit with no lighting in the dusk came right up to me as I was nearly accross the road. It was starting to look like he had no brakes either. Then a few weeks ago a teenager came flying around the path bend and stopped of a shot. He looked as shocked as me and got off and walked the rest of the way but the others didn't.

    Bit of an odd experience today. I was actually in the lion's den in Dublin Zoo! They were extremely aggressive, snarling, clawing, running at me and making me fear for my life.......... Oh wait sorry, I wasn't in the lion's den in the Zoo I was in Liffey Valley three weeks before Christmas. I got confused because thousands of people trampling over their own kids with a look of pure crazed mania on their faces to desperately grab bottles of perfume that are two euro cheaper than normal feels very much like the same thing.
    PEOPLE ARE FOOKING ANIMALS!!!

    Bloggers/Instagrammers discussing sparkly dresses and tops for Christmas and calling them 'sequence'.

    It's SEQUINS.

    Lost count of how many times I've seen it now.

    What's happening to spelling in this country? We all learnt basic spelling in primary school, yet the amount of people who seem unable to spell correctly is astonishing.
