    Vaccines for cervical cancer, fair enough. But if its vaccines for communicable disease like measles then its highly irresponsible.

    Absolutely I agree, vaccines for widespread disease that is going to affect a multitude, fine but a vaccine that is little researched, has unknown side effects and 'may' help in the fight against cancer and has caused fertility problems in laboratory rats but is being given to teenagers as part of there school health programme, no.

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


    I must say this thread is giving me great ideas on how to annoy the fuck out of, well, everybody! :D

    Nobody annoys me. You're all stars in your own right. Each and every one of you. I love you all.


    Even if anybody did annoy me I wouldn't let them know because, well, with the people I know they'd just go out of their way to do the same thing many times over to get the rise out of me.

    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.

    Why oh why would you want to :confused:

    Or, by the sounds of it, you were on the other end of the line

    I'm a software developer and I worked in jobs for years that required me to call costumer care of multiple companies many times every day so I'm not some rube who doesn't know what he's talking about

    For example I know about the data protection act that means they can only talk to the account holder or a nominated contact

    Every time I read this thread, I think of more things/people that annoy me - dunno what that says about me!! :P

    Additions:
    People who insist on standing in the middle of the elevator - move to one side and let others past! Same goes for people who walk in reeeally slooooow groups and take up the whole path. MOVE!

    Guitar music with the treble up too high.

    People who chew gum noisily. I don't even know how they do it but it's so irritating! Was doing an exam last year and a girl in the next row was chewing gum in the loudest possible way, made my skin crawl and was so distracting!

    Having to shout over so-called background music that no one wants or is listening to in order to have a conversation in a pub. There you are, having a good chat with friends, as are groups of people all around the pub. There is a good buzz in the place and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves and the pub is quite full, so they are doing a good business. Then all of a sudden music starts blaring from speakers, either from recorded music or a live performer in a place that is not a music pub or concert venue. The staff have put this on and although they have to shout at you to repeat your order because they can't hear you over the din of the music and the voices that have had to be raised to maintain the conversations, they won't even turn the music down, never mind off completely. After getting rid of smoke, it is now the most annoying thing in a pub. If we want music, we'll go to a music pub or concert venue. The regular pubs should leave the music off so that people can continue to enjoy their night as they were up to the point the music was put on. Background music is all very well, but it should be just that: background music.
