Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

Made me think of a poem ChatGPT wrote for me a while back. All jokes aside, cigarettes are awful things.

—

She digs through her purse with a sigh,
Not much there, but she’ll get by,
Two euros left for milk and bread,
But “Ah, the smokes!” run through her head.

The kids ask for shoes, maybe toys,
But her fags bring her more joys.
They nag and tug, “Mum, what’s for tea?”
She shrugs, “Same as yesterday, wait and see.”

She lights up, puffing stress away,
Thinking, “Kids need less these days.”
No need for a lavish spread,
When a cig can clear her head!

They say “mum’s always got the knack” —
At least she’s got her fags in the pack.

Those sachets of sauces you get when out. Sometimes they don’t open properly-

When this happens Solutions -

1. Get another one
2. Use a fork (Risks going everywhere)
3. Scissors (Who has that with them out and about?)

For some reason the majority seem to opt for choice 2.

The challenge of it. Levels of tension that must be up there with bomb disposal. Arguably worse when wearing any white clothing.

Scissors (Who has that with them out and about?)

Always

Stop discriminating ...

He can be autistic AND a little ****

Nice tidy car for €3,750 though Niman.

TA, reverse image search engines, you can't hide anything nowadays.

The ringing is getting louder!

Dayum tinnitus.

Watching the late late show and finding myself liking Daniel O'Donnell . He seems a sound fella which is really annoying

Mine is seriously higher the last 48 hours… dunno if environmental/weather conditions influence or what but high winds seem to exacerbate it as well as atmospheric pressure, apparently..

My trivial annoyance is the cough I've had for the last day or two. I woke up an hour ago, coughing, and can't get back to sleep for a Saturday lie-in. It's not too bad when I'm sitting up but as soon as I go horizontal, the coughing resumes.

My second, related annoyance is that yesterday I took the recommendation of the pharmacist about what cough medicine to get. I forgot that Brontostop is disgusting and ineffective. 😒

What is it about Ford Ranger's that seems to attract ignorant imbeciles?

Queuing at my nearest petrol station on way home from work there, I was clearly next in line for the pump that correalated to the side the cap is on. Fella in one of those machines pulls in right behind the car already using it (the opposite end of mine) and plonks himself there, with no intention of following queue etiquette.

The layout of the yard means that when you drive through the gate, the two pumps are to the right but you drive around to queue if they are occupied as you'll block the gate otherwise. This pleb in his redneck mobile didn't give two hoots about that though and after he was blocking everyone else, proceeded to skip me when the first customer had moved away, who couldn't believe what he was seeing too.

Disgusted I just drove to the next petrol station (the other pump was still occupied and there was a queue anyway) as this lad is clearly a hardy bastard and I wouldn't want to look at him the wrong way.

Taking the piss.

Each bar 31.5g.

Anyone know what they were?

Edit: 4 pack is 148g on Cadbury site.

Funny both sizes say 162cal per bar.

Not really ) don’t remember his last name . But that’s irrelevant to the point
