Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

THe fear of offending.

So we have been saying "the N word" for about 20yrs now.

It appears the Indo thinks the word "bitch" is so offensive, that they are now censoring it.

Speaking of fb, I found its new annoying habit.

Usually, if I come across a word I don't understand, I will highlight it and click to find its meaning( the definition of a teachable moment, ime)

Now it just takes me to a link for Facebook and not an online dictionary or definition like it usually does. Can't think what that achieves!

Didn't work and ta's me as I rarely to back to what I was interested in initially.

Down visiting relations, they have a very narky dog, constant high-pitched barking and goes mental when someone drives into the driveway or if one of its people leave the room. Probably overly pampered as a puppy.

Little fucker sat up on my knee, and while gently giving it a pet, it randomly lashed out and bit my finger and turned into an anti-christ.

Of course it was my fault then, couldn't possibly be the dog being a little c*nt no.

Got my clothes ready for my shower and had my shower at about eight.

Couldn't find my socks and just looked in the toilet a few minutes ago.

Heard the news reader on radio tonight say, "only one more sleep til Oasis".

Ah, f off would ye.

That would be TAing:-)

So maybe right thread after all?

I'm not a fan of Dunnes Stores so I very rarely go there, even though there's one near me. Yesterday evening at 9-ish, I wanted to do a bit of shopping and on the way to whichever shop, I suddenly decided to go to Dunnes (for the first time in a few years). As I went in I said to myself "What's the betting I come out with a trivial annoyance?". 🤔

Anyway, I was pottering around, picking up a few items, and as I was leaving the frozen section, I started to get a bit dizzy. At the next aisle, it was worse so I just stopped to get support from one of the end freezers (nice and cooling!) but the dizziness wasn't going away. When I looked straight ahead, my field of vision would quickly move 45 degrees to the right. And again. And again. And again After a few minutes, I caught the attention of a worker who got me a chair and some water. At this stage, the sweat was bucketing out of me. 😓

A manager came over, and between her and the original lad, they looked after me until my brother arrived. I had called him even though I could barely focus on my phone. A nurse happened to be shopping and helped with an unofficial assessment, and said I needed an ambulance, so the Dunnes worker called for one. After drinking a sports drink and waiting for 50 minutes, I felt better so I cancelled the ambulance which hadn't even started out at that stage.

TL;DR: Bad things happen when I go to Dunnes, but their employees are lovely and very helpful in a (mini-)crisis.

And my actual trivial annoyance is that I went shopping unnecessarily on a very active (and hot) day for me when I ate very little.

He was very diplomatic on Linekers podcast too which I found very strange as they basically say whatever they want on that show as opposed to being more measured on MOTD. I was wondering if it's a case where Shearer is worried that if he rips into Isak it will make him even more stubborn about leaving or the club asked Shearer to not rock the boat.
