    Do we need Viagra Connect adverts about erectile dysfunction on the radio during the day?

    "Dad, what's erectile dysfunction?".

    "Ask yer ma!!"

    If bought off Ebay or Discogs, they will refund as it's collected at checkout for purchases <£150. They won't cover the An Post admin fee though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,956 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    That An Post admin fee is annoying, especially if you are buying something that is low cost (otherwise).



  • Posts: 4,214 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    The worst is if the seller ships every item separately - I had an incident like that earlier this year. Four cheap items all arrived individually with An Post taking 3.50 every time.

    I’m in bits with a cold virus since Tuesday. And now I have a painful blister on my tongue.

    That I keep getting 'welcome to Ireland ' texts from Vodafone. Its literally only which way the wind is blowing whether you're on uk or Irish signal.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,357 ✭✭✭Poochie05


    Uk retailers that think 2nd class Royal Mail post will get to Ireland



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭The Continental Op


    Worse still UK Government that only ever use 2nd class Royal Mail. So mail for anything I do for my mother using my Power of Attorney (pension, allowances etc) takes up to six weeks to arrive.

    Wake me up when it's all over.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,767 ✭✭✭✭blade1

    I get monthly texts from Vodafone that my revised bill is now available and that my account is in credit. I left Vodafone over a year ago and can't get into my account, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a euro or two still in my account from when I left them.

    Website's that list out of stock items, if it's not in stock, then don't show me them, it just clutters up the browsing experience.

    Even worse is when you actually have to click into the product to find out if it is in stock or not.

    Applied for a job on the continent. Got the call today telling me that I made the final selection but got rejected. Joy.

    I thought I’d pop in to Dunnes Rathmines for a literal couple of things on the way home at about 4pm. Bad move. It’s a pretty cramped store, and today it was packed and half the customers had full trolleys. Queues for all tills reached halfway to the back and weren’t moving. I bailed out, after getting cut off so many times I got a PTSD flashback, from the time I visited Bangalore and experienced the local traffic.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    The once-in-a-year drinkers in the their black winter coats (you know their important then) that come out this time of year (or arrive back from foreign) and rot the ear off you in the pub about how good their job is.

    Artificial sweeteners in soft drinks and the nerve of Lucozade to put “Original” on their bottles/cans when it’s nothing like it.

    The crusties that turn up at Newgrange every year, banging drums and shìt.

    Wikipedia. I was looking at something when I get 'times up ' unless I pay €2 .

    The wanky tv ads for fragrances every Xmas.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,778 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    The Workday ad on TV… with all the corporate money grabbing ‘ rockers ‘…. Billy Idol, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Clark Jr, Paul Stanley, Joan Jett….

    None of them will before seeing the word ‘workday’ on the cheque will have heard of it, none will ever use or have used it in their lifetime…. Yet the advertisement is supposed to give ‘kudos’ to the product by virtue of people who are famous via musical/entertainment endeavours…. Yes, everyone in the office is now a rockstar, thanks to ‘workday’…. Weird and creepy. “ hi I’m Oswald “… fûck off Oswald !

    As well as having a bad cold and a tongue blister, I now have a big cold sore on my bottom lip 😖



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,672 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    I have one that's visible from space on my top lip. Happy Christmas to us.

    Normally park outside or very near the café where I have my Saturday morning fry.

    Town packed today, lots of bad parking meant that I had to leave the car in a side street around 10 minutes walk away.

    When I arrived at the café, there were two vacant parking spaces directly outside it.
