Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

… One to mention to a councillor next time they are knocking on doors, or take a picture and email to them?

I thought there was some council provision for getting onto homeowners to cut back stuff hanging over paths.

Ha ha these peeps barely know what day of the week it is....I think they practice the rictus grin and the vacant stare to get themselves outa trouble.

I had that for two weeks with tiredness and muscle pains

in hindsight I think I had Covid but didn’t test.

In theory councils have powers to nudge the property owners, especially roadside obstruction issues

Constant "this clip contains strong language" or "this clip contains disturbing scenes", when they contains neither.

Latest one is Trump cursing on the Indo site. Except you don't hear a curse, it's bleeped out.

And the disturbing scenes cones now are basically anything. Years ago you might have seen a dead body in the clip, now you watch it and think, "where was the disturbing scene?".

Little sneezing fits I seem to get most days.

@gormdubhgorm last year I went to the quarterfinals in Croker & then walked down to Fairview for the Saw Doctors. Once it doesn't go to extra time you will fine.

Still smothered, and I have the rest of the week off work. Typical. Going to build myself a blanket fort on the couch and not come out for the day.

When someone inquires about something, so you phone them back, they don't answer so you leave a voicemail mail carefully explaining all the info they need.

Two seconds later your phone rings, "Hi I got a missed call from this number…" The person clearly hasn't listened to the voicemail and has no clue why you rang them. Then you have to re-explain everything again, right after having to waste your time, sitting through listening to the old "the Vodafone customer you are calling, is not available..."

For the love of god, please listen to the damn voicemail, before ringing me back, you're wasting both of our time!

My Dad still leaves a voicemail any time you miss a call from him. We all stopped listening to them years ago, I'd say I have 17 million "DH, it's Dad, you might give a call back when you get this" messages in my mailbox. I would have done it anyway as soon as I saw the missed call!

The ridiculous flags you see in the crowd at Glastonbury music festivals - Impossible not to be distracted by them when trying to see the bands on stage. They should be banned…

3 junkies sitting outside near my bedroom window the past hour wrecking my head. Looks like they're camped there for the night.

Singing and shouting and being complete scumbags. I really fancied an early night tonight. If I went out to them and asked them to keep the noise down I'd get a rock through my window.

this is both trivially annoying and hugely hilarious(i thought)…in work yesterday,my turn in the control room watching the cctv,girl walking a big dog across the pavement outside,looked away for a couple of minutes,next i see is the dog assuming the position,by the time i got outside both she and dog were gone from sight but left behind a pile,now have to say was impressed with the size of the pile!!anyway had to get it cleaned,our landscapers were working so went looking for them and their power washer,on the way back with one of the lads and the gear we spot a "phone zombie" on direct collision course with the pile,we shouted but no luck…he finally noticed when he was up to his ankle!!we kindly offered to power wash him as well…he did ask what kind of dog could leave something that size,told him was a chihuahua…

"I'd get a rock through my window" - free way to get drugs so (excluding the cost of fixing the window!)

There are some great hayfever meds going cheap in Mr.Price at the mo. I picked up a few of them and was worried they'd be gimmick fluff but it is good stuff.
