    Constant news about recession/banking/property bust.
    ....

    +1, the media absolutely wallow in it and it makes people miserable.

    Toddlers on long plane journeys.
    Phone in competitions on radio shows.
    X-Factor and the shower of cúnts that get sucked into it.
    Gossip artists and the sphere of negativity they thrive on.

    People who watch the X Factor should be ashamed. As Ricky Gervais put it quite well: 'wheeling out the weak and bewildered to be laughed at by multi millionaires, the modern day Victorian freakshow'.

    I do paraphrase there, but very well said.

    Snoring and idiots that love the sound of their own voice i.e. the person at work I am sitting next to right now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 Camarillo Brillo


    People who when spelling a word pronounce the letter "A" as ah instead of ey.

    Fellas who were still going to school well into their twenties when there were loads of jobs during the mid noughties.

    Degree takes 4 years sunshine, Masters another 2 and Ph.D another 4. 18 + 4 + 2 + 4 = 28.

    she, whistling threw her crow head kinda snoring, but its not so much that, Its the way she speaks and how loud she speaks, EG instead of saying the word "computer" to a customer she shouts the word "COMPPUUTAAA" in an annoying whiney english accent even tho she is from Greece..AHHHH I hate it:mad:

    I hate when pedestrians cross the road diagonally. ****ing ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 657 ✭✭✭Sooopie


    People that have their bag on a seat on a packed bus in rush hour on the way home

    and the look they give you if you have the audacity to ask them to move it so you can sit down

    Them arseholes on buses and planes who tilt the chair back into your chest without so much as an "Excuse me". They probably all vote for Fianna Fail too, the bastards.

    Sweet Jesus, this makes my blood boil. One díck tried to do it to me once, he pretended he didn't hear me say 'excuse me', but he couldn't ignore the all mighty jab he got in the shoulder when I told him to move his seat as I could barely breathe.

    Every other vehicle on the road annoys me...

    :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,656 ✭✭✭cgpg5


    People in shops with buggies when it's really busy, people that walk really slowly in front of you, especially in groups, and there's no room to go by and people who say that they "failed an exam so badly" yet always end up with the highest marks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭Scrappychimow


    Sometimes I feel an irrational hatred of peoples faces ,to the point where i have to restrain myself.

    Another thing that annoys me is small talk from idiots, for example I was sitting in a cafe the other day and 3 men walked in, one in particular was throwing shapes and he pointed to cakes and said to the others ' are yous paying ', and started to snigger.

    I felt like fucking my cup of coffee into the bastards face.

    Drivers who just come to a full stop to have a chat with the driver of an on coming car. Ever heard of mobile phones.

    People who walk behind a reversing car.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,401 ✭✭✭Seanchai


    People who when spelling a word pronounce the letter "A" as ah instead of ey.

    "Ah" roughly represents the pronunciation of the letter A in Irish so as such it's a perfectly legitimate and natural pronunciation of the letter in Ireland.

    When people use "literally" incorrectly. My head literally explodes with anger when I see that kind of thing.

    When newspapers slap an "exclusive" banner onto opinion pieces by their own in-house columnists. Of course it's bloody exclusive!

    When you're on a guided tour of a historical monument, and there's always some douchebag at the front nodding away in agreement with everything the guide says. We get it. You know some history, and you want to let us know how intelligent you are. Why not just become a guide then?!

    Auld wans unloading meaty farts going up escalators.

    Was going up the 'lator in Dundrum and this wide-arsed heavy set auld wan was in front.

    Festooned with bags and blocking the way through.

    Half way up she bent down to pick up the bags and blew out a fcuking rasper of a thick meaty fart. You could sew a fcuking button on the thing.

    Hit me at full toss:eek:Burnin' bad powder.

    Fcuking bang of cabbage and gravy was vile, not a bother on her, even loosed a few follow ups, to 'clear her throat'

    Thick cow:mad:
    Couldn't stop laughing trying to visualise that:D:D:D:D:D

    Ignorant people, drivers still on their phones whilst driving, facebook changing stuff, some people on facebook using it as an agony aunt column with statuses that scream I'm starved of attention so feel sorry for me. Since I started doing the school run it annoys that there's certain cliques of mammys like the loaded ones, the arty farty ones, the "yummy mummies" and the pushy mammys.

    You forgot the mummies who were the first women on earth to ever have a child and insist that they know what's better for your child than you do.

    I forgot about that kind of mummy sorry:) they're the kind that had no pain relief giving birth and even 10 years later are boasting of the fact. They also brag about every one of their little "angel's" accomplishments every chance they get.

    For me, it has to be people who take light entertainment shows too seriously....

    I've apologised to the other ladies who were in my maternity ward for this (they thought I was this type), I arrived to the unit too late for pain relief or epidural, but there certainly was pain. And my "little angel" is just as capable of being as mean as the friends she complains about. I feel like you understand. THANKS.

    People who think they're the dogs bollocks for no particular reason.

    Lads who think they're a 16 stone boxer after a few drinks.

    People who are die hard supporters of a political party and everything their ministers do for no reason other than they are part of said political party.

    People who jump on hate bandwagons.

    People who accept something is dangerous without questioning it purely because people who are not qualified to comment on it say so.

    Just a quick little list off the top of my head :o

    That was a dig at so called super mums so I wasn't trying to offend anyone. I had no pain relief with my last baby either but it was more of a test for myself to see if I could handle it. Didn't do too badly either but there was some swearing involved:) mothers of yesteryear coped without the mod cons of pain relief so why can't we.

    HO NO NO NO. That was not a dig, please believe me, when I walked down to the ward I was immediately disliked. And like you there was noise, to the point that the mid-wife told my husband to close the window - like that was going to stop the people in the neighbouring county from hearing me!!!
