Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

Bork n'Borkers I say.

So much washing in the machine that I will have to do two rounds to get them all out, duh! now even tho it makes most sense for the day, I cant shower bc Ive put the washing machine on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There was a driver on this thread a while back whose TA was pedestrians hitting the button but crossing before it turns green when it's safe enough. I said at the time I do that regularly. I do feel guilty about doing that but there's only so much time you can stand there waiting for the light to change.

It begins:

I'm never going to enjoy summer ever again, am I?

Tennis courts in the park are a building site.. would common sense not dictate that work might start to enable the amenity be ready for people to use as the good weather comes ? kids off school ? Common sense ain't so common here with decision makers.

Has to be minimum 5/6 weeks more work I'd guesstimate which will see half the summer gone…

Fecking ants appearing in the kitchen no idea where they are coming from. Saw one fecker escape under the cooker hob, tiny gap.

I had similar issue. I put out one of those ant bait stations and could see a trail of them coming in from skirting board at back door. Must have been a tiny gap but the bait station took care of the nest in a day or so.

Amazon delivery drivers. It's always Amazon. Have my windows open as you do on a lovely day, ground and first floor. Amazon guy looking to get in my apartment block to deliver parcel. I'm trying to relax and he's shouting in my window asking to be let in. Hops over my wall and looks in the window. I just tell him to get away from my window.

Nothing to do with me. I find them all very cheeky and pushy.

I was at a brilliant gig last night in the Bord Gais Theatre.

The woman in front of me, recorded the majority of the gig on her phone.
When she wasn't doing so, she was rearranging stuff on her phone. 😬

Imagine viewing Christopher Cross, needlessly through a lens, when you're 3 rows from the front.
Seriously, he's right there in front of you.
Put. The. Phone. Away.

Luckily, I'm a calm person.
Because I came close to whacking the phone out of her hand, but that would have distracted more people than her actions.

This^^^

And some of the ( non GAA, although they're particularly terrible ) presenters/ journalists on RTÉ with their pronouncing debts instead of deaths.
Pints instead of points.

Flat accents, poor grammar and pronunciation, it's beyond embarrassing.
