Why people are so testy online.

I've been back eating good food and exercising for 2 days now and the half a stone I put on over Christmas from a 100% fat + alcohol diet hasn't disappeared !

When drivers of big, jacked up pick-up trucks drive behind me at night with the high beams on. I usually slow right down to force them to pass me.
I'm not petty enough to follow them with my high on though.

A thread that I wanted to contribute to here in AH is closed thanks to trolls

freshpopcorn · 03-01-2020 05:30AM

People who engage with trolls on social media.
A lot of the time if you ignore them they will go away.
However sometimes people looking for likes, thanks, praise engage with them and they just derail everything.

I had a painful hang nail last night so I wrenched it off. Unfortunately the only plaster I could find was a Paw Patrol branded one with a picture of Marshall on it.

HSE incompetence. My father was due in the Regional for latest round of chemo at 9am. Basic ritual is that bloods are done a day in advance and appointment time confirmed. With all of this set, it was a 45 minute spin on the motorway. Arrived plenty early to ensure he didn't get bumped down the queue. Usually taken into the cancer ward almost immediately. An hour stewing at reception this morning before a slightly flustered lady appeared. "Oh, it appears you're actually booked in for 2pm". I spoke up, "any chance you could take him now? We have come a long way." "Sorry, we're completely full. You'll need to return later." My father and I looked at each other, collective shrug of the shoulders. What can you do? One becomes accustomed to mediocrity. F*ck 'em Danno.

Been a rough couple here too, thing is, you can’t judge your own happiness or wellbeing by constantly comparing yourself to everyone else, their success or happiness... if you have xxx number of friends on FB.... ‘somebody’ is going to be posting holiday snaps.... ‘somebody’ is going to be going on about starting a new job.... ‘somebody’ is going to be putting up pics of their new car or new house... that’s them... let them enjoy it.

2020 is the year of retro:electro.... don’t let your happiness or otherwise be influenced by shît you read about on social media, focus on yourself being happy... set your goals, tackle them with attitude, determination and patience also.... the year of retro:electro.... starts tomorrow.... believe !

I seldom post but I love to read ... but thank you for this post. I too had a rough year and a ****ty christmas with everyone in the house sick and housebound. I am also old enough to know better .. and yet there I am, staring gloomily into my facebook feed and wondering when I became such a saddo! Thank you for pointing out my own foolish vulnerability. A very happy new year to you internet stranger x

Having play dates for the 3 chicks today.......so that obviously means that herself turns into Chairman Mao and has turned what was supposed to be a fun day into a day that all 4 of us are stepping on egg shells.....because she's cleaning the ****ing house..." I'm cleaning this...it's always left to me....an I the only one who cares about the house".....

No your ****ing not but you sat down on your hole for the last 10 days like the rest of us and did nothing so don't be surprised the house is not exactly showroom clean........

You should say it to her though. It's so reasonable it will make her calm down

I just found the baby Jesus as I started tidying Christnas stuff away. I couldn't remember where I'd put him so he didn't make it into the crib this year.

I had the horrible dose that's going this Christmas, started feeling rough on Christmas day. I'm just back in from walking the dog and I feel like I've run a marathon, p1ssing sweat

People who say ‘I was making a left / right’

Blitzkrieger wrote: »

I was making a left turn on Main Street a while ago and some pedestrians walked right out in front of me. I indicated in plenty of time, and I saw them, but not one of the three of them looked up until they were in the middle of the road and I was five feet away. I suspect a granny, a granddad and a girl that was about 10. What a great example for the young girl - walk into traffic without looking. And the wave she gave me when I had stopped was less a 'thank you' and more of a dismissive 'ah **** off'.

We're too soft on pedestrians. We need to run a few over to make them all start paying attention again....

Is that UHL, what used to be the regional in Limerick by any chance? If it is, sadly I'm not the slightest bit surprised.
The word s**thole doesn't even come close to describing the place :mad:

Harry Styles. Every time I see his inane head. I’m not sure why. I think he just comes across like a corporate PR puppet or something. I can almost see the strings.

I find all the One Direction lads are sort of like this. It's sort of the demographic they are going for.

With Styles, it’s worse though because they are trying so hard to make him the credible one. In the last few years, I’ve heard him compared to Mick Jagger, Bowie AND Prince. Please. He wishes.

I have a tale of queue-jumpers but that’s not actually what I’m most trivially annoyed about.

I was in Centra just now. There was a guy being served, a teenager in front of me at the top of the queue and three people behind me. The teenager’s friend joined the back of the queue and Teenager says “go in in front of me there” to his friend. His friend brazenly jumps the queue. Of course, it was self-serving for the top-of-the-queue teenager so they’d be out quicker.

However, I am mostly annoyed at myself for saying nothing. People get away with that shit because others let them away with it. And as teenagers, it’s a good time for them to learn a lesson, early in life. But, nope, muggins here just stewed instead. :rolleyes:

Actually fuck it, no, the queue-jumping part is just as irritating. How oblivious and entitled are some people. Yeah, go ahead there, good lad. We all love queuing. :rolleyes:

I know, yeah. :pac: The Prince comparison seems to be solely down to them having a song with almost the same name (Sign O’ The Times/Sign Of The Times).

I am seething with rage at the Christmas lights on the stairs. I must have spent the guts of an hour trying to get them off from the bottom of the banister and nothing I do untangles them. And I don't want to give up as that's giving in to them. I'm this close to cutting the ba$tards off with the scissors and it's taking all that's in me not to lie on the floor kicking and screaming. A$$hole lights

Life is too short. Cut them. Maybe plug them out first though!

I’m currently 8 months pregnant. Went shopping today for pyjamas and the like for my hospital stay. As I stood waiting to cross the street my paper bag ripped and my stuff landed on the ground. My mobility at the moment is, shall we say, limited and as I bent down, none too gracefully, to gather my stuff I became aware of a group of teenage girls beside me, sniggering.... while I’m wobbling on my hunkers trying to pick sh1t penny’s jammies and giant knickers back into the ripped bag. Eventually I got back to my feet and gave them a death stare, muttering “a***oles” under my breath.

TA and more than a tad depressed to think that society has become so uncaring, unhelpful, rude and everyone is just out for themselves.

I have a chest infection. (Annoying). Was feeling sore and sorry for myself and decided to get on with feeding the dogs so I could just sit down and relax for the evening.

So fed them and was about to let them outside when I remembered one of my dogs hurt her paw (annoying) and has a sock thing on it and I didn't want it to get wet so I started to rig up a cover with a bin bag but meanwhile my other dog had an accident on the mat. (Annoying). Totally not her fault, her medication makes her really struggle to hold her pee and I should have let her out before I started making the cover for the other dogs foot but I'm an idiot. (Annoying).

So I had to let her out. Then put the mat in the wash and mopped the floor (annoying) before making the cover for the other dogs paw and letting her out too.

Then as I go to walk away I somehow knock a big glass bottle and it smashes everywhere. (Annoying) So I start the clean up and as I stand up I whack my head off the island...

Annoying!!!!

And now ages later I'm still finding bits of glass.... Yeah you guessed it. Annoying!

(Sorry the way I wrote this might be TA for others!
