Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

people, including my offspring, who despite many entreaties to the contrary, keep making a plural out of you, yous…….aargh!!

p.s. same with euros. The plural of euro is euro!!

Here ye hear ye... bring back ye as the plural of you.

In my local yesterday evening for a couple of pints during the match. Had a prime seat close to the bar, happy enough as it was wedged, full of blow-ins from the capital.

Got up to get another pint, it was a clear as day that was my intention. As soon as I took two steps away from the seat a couple vultured in and plonked themselves down, no questions asked. Now there was a lad I know at the bar so I stood there chatting to him after it happened, but I was peeved.

A couple of mins later, the fella in the couple went up to order a drink and I politely said 'eh that was my seat by the way'. Looked at me up and down and with a south county Dublin accent said 'roysh' and couldn't give two shites.

Pricks like that seem to be drawn to the pub when rugby matches are on.

TA - I've got the wrong bread to have baked beans on toast :-(

Some things need to be done right and standards maintained. Hovis Malted Granary Bread is to thin to soft and doesn't toast well enough to do beans on toast; it absorbs the "juice" to quickly and goes soggy. Hovis Granary is good but the gold standard (in brown bread) is Hovis Thick Granary Bread.

Note my previous post ;-)

Apologies if I've just created a brand new TA for anyone by saying "juice" in reference to sauce the beans are in.

People walking or jogging who play their music, podcast or radio out loud. It used to be just teens but now it is mostly middle age people and older.

That sounds like the type of classless entitled snob who would also be in being rude to the staff and regulars during the grand national. I reply to @castletownman

Too short a timeframe. Those teens would only be early to mid 20s by now. The oldies seem to be copying them.

I was mostly joking. It seems to becoming the norm not to use headphones. Which is strange since earbuds are very cheap, small and very convenient. It's especially annoying on public transport where you are stuck listening to the *******

When you're eating something and you actually think too much about it. Like I decided to have some tuna mayonnaise on brown bread....it tastes nice but I got the idea of the actual fish in my head 🤢 and also theres sweetcorn too. Sweetcorn on bread?? 🤢🤢

Had a horrible anxiety attack early this am, still feeling it in my head and tummy. Sib walks into where I am having breakfast and asks why things don't work when they are needed?. (possibly because they don't do follow-up on anything) and starts waving some gardening gaged that makes a horrible noise x2. It seems to be fixed now as they have left the room.

Ta that in a house with rooms that don't have me in, this is the one they choose to make noise in for the few minutes I have for food!

woken up circa 6am by the sound of my neighbours bin being sent flying and if that wasn't enough the associated laughter and screeching from the dweeb perpetrators who were obviously leaving a party somewhere and couldn’t resist disturbing people in the dead of morning....nice one 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thing was, public holiday or otherwise Monday is not a bin day here so the gobshîtes in the property put the thing out by mistake. So dumbness / idiocy on two levels….costing me about an hour of sleep. 🩸🗡️

Brought my dad's bag of random shrapnel coins to the machine in the local petrol station 12.5% surcharge but he's happy with that as he doesn't want to carry around five kilos of small coins. Pop them in the machine, all good and get the payment receipt.

Go to the till and hand the cashier the receipt, he looks at me and says is this a joke? I raise an eyebrow and he says, is this like a code or something? Has something changed in the shop since I started work this morning?

Hands back the receipt and it's a penny's receipt for a seven pack of deadpool design socks. I gave him the wrong slip of paper and now he thinks I'm a lunatic
