    Those are replacement heads for an electric toothbrush, not razors! 😂

    It seems the beautiful weather has dried out the sewers and the whole area smells like horribleness.

    That can go with my fly beer I’m after having .

    People who drive far below the speed limit, particularly on motorways.

    You obviously don't drive on the M50 to often! Getting anywhere near the speed limit is a dream 😁

    Fading eyesight in old age. Watching the masters wondering where the ball is.

    people without medical qualifications or experience of a certain medical condition, advising and sharing their opinions to people who do have it. Be quiet, engage the brain, people don’t want to hear your made up hokey, helps nobody aside from you and your ego…

    Losing a Parker pen I'd managed to keep on me for the last two years. Worst part of it was I'd just bought an expensive refill for it a week earlier.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    repeating myself here, but FFS there’s no need for hi hi hi hi hi for every single email you’re sending to the same persons on the same thread. It’s looks fooking retarded, not to mention ridiculously childish!!

    Worse still: “I hope this email finds you well” on every bleedin reply

    A few days of reasonably good weather and the fcuking bluebottle invasion has begin already. I HATE them.

    People skipping the queue for the self-service screens in McDonalds.

    Us plebs were just standing in an obvious line here for the craic. Asshat comes in from the side and plonks herself into the next available screen, not a care in the world. I was hangry and impatient and pointed out to her that she would want to learn some manners- might as well be talking to the wall.

    They always seem to be good folk from our capital city for some reason. Probably down in the area for their 'holliers'.

    People leaving it till 3pm on a Friday afternoon to visit their local HSE primary care centre and then... all amazed when its staffed like a ghost town and they can't even get to speak to anyone that they need to regarding getting their hands on their replacement mobility aid that was ordered for them ages ago…or supposed to have been…



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,766 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    there is a certain type of person who find it impossible to hold onto charging cables for devices. Don’t get why its a thing. They asked me for a cable earlier for their phone as they left theirs in a hotel. I’m known to have a treasure trove of spares for tablets, wireless speakers, phones, laptops, dental flossers, razors etc…

    The cable I gave them was brand new and still in the sealed box which I don’t mind but I am finding now I’ve no other spares for my own phone and the one I’m using saw better days so I have to go order right now, hmm.

    id like to add 10mm spanners/sockets to your list…


    "They gave me an impossible task,one which they said I wouldnt return from...."

    "You are him…the one they call the "Baba Yaga"…

    yo,kevo…im still waiting on my free rte branded flip-flops and macaroons…

    Web sites that force acceptance of their cookies. They know they are legally obliged to provide choices and options, and know people don't have time to be complaining.

    ^^^^^^
    And on the cookie theme , sites that don’t have a reject all option and make you scroll down unclicking .

    My TA now is I’ve forgotten my TA 😡



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 764 ✭✭✭Dan Steely


    Yeah. A list a couple of thousand check boxes long. That's more than a trivial annoyance, it's throw the phone across the room time.

    I was walking the two dogs on the beach earlier. I thought I saw a large red bull mastiff dog up ahead so I put the dogs on the leash. When I got closer it turned out to be a young one in her 20s with red hair sitting down. I definitely should remember to bring my prescription sunglasses next time I’m out with the mutts 👀

    There's a joke about a bitch somewhere in there.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 764 ✭✭✭Dan Steely


    Was out on Dalkey beach myself the other day in the good weather. Minding my own business when this red haired bitch ran up to me and said

    Vine reviews on Amazon. As soon as I see the green text I click the back button. More or less fraud.

    This kind of thing happens in my family all the time. It's a result of the brain putting the pictures back in an order that makes sense to it, rather than the reality of the surroundings. Ta that being dyslexic/dyspraxic can cause this kind of thing, and ppl take advantage. Obv not you Sgt!

    A family member with a progressively worsening hearing problem. I’m asked a question 3 times, my answer isn’t heard despite me increasing the volume of my answer incrementally 3 times..4th time I amplify my voice to just about shouting, not to be rude, just so they can hear, I’m told in a huff..“ look, no need to shout at me “.. “well, thing is, there is, 3 attempts and you can’t hear despite me gradually talking louder. “



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,791 ✭✭✭Sgt Hartman


    I’m a bit dyspraxic myself so that would make sense, especially when combined with my failing eyesight 🤓



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,528 ✭✭✭Archeron


    Almost just got run over on a pedestrian crossing when some mad bint flew through at about twice the speed limit, the car in the other direction had already stopped.

    Now I'm safely in the town and having a coffee and there's a fat angry looking baby glaring at me like it wants to kill me.
