    People who never shut up talking. One way conversation to another person who is facilitating by being nice and not telling them to shut the **** up.

    Kids are bad enough,but adult mainly men that cycle on the pavement. They'll even go to the trouble of crossing the road to the far footpath if they can't get by.

    Time to put childish things aside.


    Waiting for a haircut for nearly an hour now. Are barbers way to finicky about cutting people's noggins nowadays? Or is it that I'm just envious of these young fellas with their copious amounts of hair.

    That must be Nigel with the brie...


    The thanks function is borked now. There is one thanks on a post, then I also thank it and it becomes 7 instead of 2.

    I have literally never heard of only bringing one shoe to the cobbler in my life 🤣

    The other presenters didn't believe him but he insisted that it worked. Imagine getting your key stuck in it and having to go to a member of staff for help 🫣

    I was watching a video of a woman eating a bag of Doritos in the back of an Uber. The female driver politely told her that eating in the car is not allowed but the passenger kept saying I can eat if I want to, I'm not making a mess (even though she kept sprinkling Dorito dust round the car).

    The driver warned her a few times that she would cancel the ride if she didn't stop eating and the passenger kept saying 'you just try it and see what happens'. So the driver finally pulls over and tells her to get out but she refuses. The driver had to call the police before she would get out of the car. Then she starts shouting over and over for the driver to 'give me back my money' the driver was trying to explain that she cancelled the ride so she doesn't recieve the fare.

    Next thing the passenger completely loses it and starts assaulting the driver through the window 🙈

    The very next ad on after the video was a young woman saying 'I always feel safe driving my Uber anytime' 🤭

    I noticed lots of posts in Facebook groups being signed off as TIA. I couldn't figure out who this TIA person was because they were often anonymous.

    I then figured out TIA was Thanks in Advance.

    To make it even more confusing, it’s often signed off as tia or Tia.

    I've met a few scummers on bikes recently bombing it down the road with their dog chasing them trying to catch up. It looks like they are going to have a heart attack. And in this weather, so cruel.

    Lads if you're going out on the bike leave the dog at home.

    My barber is dear but you can book a slot online so you never have to wait more than 5 minutes

    Library staff & customers talking too loudly in the library, with no attempt to speak in hushed tones 🤫



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,031 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    That just means that in the time since you opened the page, 5 other people thanked the post. If you had refreshed the page before thanking it, there would have been 6 'thanks'.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,598 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I don't think you are expected to speak quietly in libraries any more?

    At least not any library I've been in over the last decade or more.

    They tend to still be quiet places in general, but most people if they need to chat don't do it in whispers any more.

    I can only presume we are talking about the Michael Keaton Batman here

    Hold on to your hat, the original Keaton film is 36 years old!

    people who have ADHD like hyper fixations about stuff that they aggressively project onto others in an almost harassing fashion over stuff that doesn’t or shouldn’t matter one iota, bizarre…just..go..away….

    Mini marathon, Its a 10k. People calling their 5k and 10ks "mini marathons". The only acceptable usage is half marathon and marathon. Bunch of hippy, love everything do gooders always call their 5k and 10ks a mini marathon.

    Also the VHI's mini marathons special road race status, literally every other race has to close up asap and start very early but this one gets a lunch time start and no one is in any rush to re open the roads.

    Rant over.

    Walked past a man feeding the raucy seagulls in an apartment complex. Thought it very selfish to neighbours who have to listen to them shrieking every morning. Idiot.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,114 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    had fancied a walk but 35 kmph wind gusts now out my way not all that conducive to an enjoyable, comfortable experience…..

    The next door neighbour with a football field for a garden picking Sunday as his lawnmower day.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,789 ✭✭✭✭lawred2


    What's the problem with him cutting his lawn on a Sunday?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,299 ✭✭✭Comhrá


    For many people it's their only day off work and they may want to enjoy a quiet afternoon at home to relax. Not too much to ask for, I think.

    His garden is huge. The lawnmower has been going a lot, particularly I think because of the current growing weather. After a couple of hours today I wondered could he not take a break on a Sunday. It can grate after a while.

    Anyway, it's a trivial annoyance. I'm not going to go over and plant his rake in his head.
