    Being failed in my driving test for not being observant via not looking over my shoulder enough. spent 90% of the test looking in mirrors, well able to see what's behind me and fails me on not looking over my shoulder once or twice.

    Pedantic wanker.

    I made one screw up more so, pulling out the gate hastily, a bit wide and my car was in the way of a lady pulling in to where I was pulling out, I'll hold my hand up and say I screwed up there. But with my mirror usage today I was more than observant and could see everything, should have sailed through that test.

    Load of b*****ks.

    Not sure what the situation is on the mobile site, but on the regular desktop browser version you simply hover your mouse over the Thanks! button and the list appears - but I get what you mean, previously it wasn't even necessary to do that - the list of Thanks were displayed right below the post, no further effort required.

    Great exercise today at the gym but I’m absolutely fûcked dot com tonight... and there are people trying to make demands on my time this weekend when yesterday I’d promised myself that I was going to just recharge the batteries and was hoping the phone wasn’t going to ring, but it has and in saying no I’ve pissed off one person but in fairness they are these days habitually pissed off about anything and with anybody not singing off their hymn sheet...

    There is a wind down function that I installed some time ago on my phone. It is great. No calls or notifications after 10pm or before 7:30am. I would recommend

    The blind panic that overcomes me whenever I discover a mouse has intruded indoors.

    Spotted one the other night and I literally couldn't cope, to the extent where my GF was telling me to calm down. Thought the problem was over when the little fecker was caught in a trap later that night, but just spotted another one making a dash to the hot press ten minutes ago. It's a bleeding mystery how they gained entry to be begin with as a thorough inspection of the outer walls revealed no possible entry points, but I won't be happy until they are all definitively gone.

    Came across a dead rat on the public path outside a health centre. On my first trip I had no choice but to woman up and walk past the carcass(I'm scared witless of rats and mice) I couldn't shake the terror having to walk past it on the way back and ended up having to walk out into traffic to avoid it.

    Can you imagine the complete lack of sympathy when I made it back to work?

    How do I have a hangover when I didn't drink last night? FS.

    Went to a posh restaurant against my better judgement and it 100% lived up to my expectations. Stupid 6 course tasting menu so you get no choice, we went for the vegetarian menu because it sounded better than the non-vegetarian menu. All courses were tiny becuse there were 6 of them (ostensibly). Most courses tasted of nothing, other courses were overwhelmed by the amount of different flavours on the plate. The nicest thing was a squash risotto which came as a side dish to the 5th course which seemed to be a slice of butternut squash roasted a bit. We left the place still hungry. At least it was only £32. I'm not even disappointed coz it's totally what I expected. I just can't understand what people see in tasting menus?

    Michael Bublé. If there's a more boring, insipid singer out there, I never want to hear them.

    Being failed in my driving test for not being observant via not looking over my shoulder enough.

    If that was a bike test then fair enough. Not for nothing is looking over your shoulder known as The Life Saver by bikers.

    If it was a car then would wonder...just try driving a van if you are used to looking over your shoulder to see whats going on behind you. Some disappointment!


    TAed that I cant figure out if Zcorp was doing a bike test or a car test



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 960 ✭✭✭3d4life


    Dont know this MB but 'boring and insipid' is by no means the worst a singer can get :D

    TAed that one mans 'boring and insipid' may be another mans 'easy listening'

    I did a tasting menu once in Bang just off Stephen's Green. I swear to God that the portions were so small and the time between courses so extended that I was about to order a Chinese and have it delivered to the restaurant.

    After 6 miniscule courses I was still hungry but it was too late at that stage to get something decent.

    Ridiculous people with notions and supposed fine dining is my TA for today.

    The Emperor New Clothes comes to mind !

    Not long ago people giving out about Michael D Higgins, nose in the trough etc now everyone is fawning over him because of refusing an invitation.

    No matter what he does he will always be an arrogant puffed up prick making the most of the gravy train to me.

    Pop music does not receive the appropriate level of scorn and criticism.

    It keeps getting away with it. The Walter White of musical genres. Selling sht to kids, and never getting what it deserves.

    Videos that say 'wait for the end'.

    99% certain not to be worth watching to the end

    My electricity meter is beeping (needs topped up) and I made an attempt to top it up through the SSE app, only for it tell me "your power code has failed".

    Now I'm here, the last half hour, trying to contact Airtricity and, despite their service stating that they are available for webchat between 10am - 6pm on Weekends, their website is dropping me into this

    Instead they want me to use other methods to contact them which I'll know they won't get back to me for another 2 days - that's how it always happens. My issue is that I need to top up this meter now before it cuts me off!

    People who think you come from the same county that your car was registered..

    Case in point, packed beach in Tramore yesterday and my mate pipes up "Look at all those Dublin cars, they have enough places back home to keep them entertained, why bother coming here?". When in reality every 3rd or 4th car is registered in Dublin and the cars might just as easily belong to the local family up the road!

    Same with people who are lost and look for someone with a car with the same county on it because nobody would be driving a car outside of the county they live in...

    Gonna piggyback off this TA and express my TA at people who get annoyed at seeing people from differing COUNTIES entering their own. There's xenophobia, and then there's that. How petty.

    It's the jazz equivalent of Complan. Bland and easily digested by the very young, elderly and infirm. Jazz should be about sex, drugs, alcohol and poor life choices.

    The cleaners in our place coming in 30 minutes before we finish and poking around us with vacuum cleaners while we're trying to get stuff done 🤨

    I'm nearly certain I've talked about this here before, but I feel that I need to bring it up as it's not spoken enough about.

    I'm wearing a black t-shirt but have red belly button fluff. F*cked if I know how.

    Taking a pair of fresh boxers out, flapping them free in order to step in and get dressed and you spot a big fukcing spider right in the middle, right in the place that would be a really bad place to accidentally put a spider.

    In fairness, he was a nice spider, big but not hairy and with cool silver stripes. Still though.

    M&S coleslaw... ok it’s delicious but... there is no lid on the box, it’s just clear plastic cellophane wrap on top of the box so if you want to leave some for later / tomorrow you have to get out the cling film and start wrapping. Furthermore health experts recommend coleslaw be stored after opening in air tight containers, Annoying.

    Would the cut-off lid from an E.G. super-valu or Tesco coleslaw tub work?

    Or..

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=silicon+food+covers

    I hate coleslaw not being covered/going off too..

    T.A. - shop down the road from me used to make the best coleslaw ever!!! No competition. But they closed down and sold up (family squabbling about who would take over the business). 😁😑
