    The word 'cringe'.

    People typing Google into the search bar.

    People who don't acknowledge when I let them out in traffic or hold a door open for them. I try to make a mental note of who they are so I can remember to not help them again. I never remember.

    That one patch of stubble that remains after a shave. Fecking pisses me off.

    Do gooders who hand out soup and sambos to the homeless and then tell all in sundry about it ! Do it on the Qt and tell nobody

    People who tell me their dreams. "I had a mad dream last night..", then proceed to tell me all about it.
    I try and look as disinterested as possible but it doesn't deter them.
    I'm sorry but no matter how fantastical and how weird it was, it was all in your head, it wasn't real and I'm just not interested.

    Hospital appointments.

    Why do they issue you with an appointment but make you wait in the waiting area with about thirty others and they just go on who's been there the longest?!

    Why make my appointment for 11am and not see me til 1.30pm?

    One time I was running late for an appointment and I showed up ten minutes late. Didn't think it'd matter because at this particular consultant's office, there's always a delay.

    I checked in and sat down and the nurse said "You're late".
    I felt like screaming at her "YOU'RE always late! I'M ALWAYS early, but this one occasion it's ME that's late and you're harping on about it?!"

    When more than one person does karaoke at a time. Don't be a coward, do it on your own.

    Every Good Friday, people who are at pains to tell everyone how they'll be having a fry for breakfast, a burger for lunch and a steak for dinner, all washed down with a slab AB InBev's finest beer-flavoured piss water, just to "stick" it to the law and the Catholic Church. It's completely unoriginal and about as rebellious as a child staying up ten minutes past his bed time.

    It's okay though, with it's stance on gays and women, the way it can act with impunity in this state and the fact it controls most of the schools in this country, the Catholic Church gets to have the last laugh.

    People who put on Facebook and in texts 'xxx' (ie kisses) at the end of a sentence. As if you do that in real life: so p*ss off

    It doesn't bother me as much as people who get annoyed if I don't send THEM kisses. Sorry, but if I don't kiss you when we meet in person, I won't be "kissing" you online either :P

    The way Americans say " I have no clue". I have no idea or I don't know should be the appropriate response for the clueless, overweight warmongers.

    When you go into town to meet someone, their phone's off and you're left wandering around a packed pub looking for them. Only to end up getting the luas home half an hour later.

    People who say sh*t like "happy monday/tuesday"
    People who say they're afraid of clowns and sh*t.. No you just think your cute sayin that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55 ✭✭gallifreya


    Parents who take up every parking space outside the school,even parking in the drop-off point who then hang around gossiping at the gate.

    Presenters on TV who wear suits and open neck shirts with no ties. Just looks wrong.

    Kids that do that really loud, really high pitched scream, constantly but are just 'expressing themselves'. In shopping centres I can cope with it but at a funeral - just no.

    Waking up after having a dirty dream and Tommy Bowe isn't beside me to continue it.

    #1 - People who abbreviate already short words, like "tnx" or even "rgds" in emails. It's work time, you don't need to save micro-seconds in work! People even abbreviate "ok" to "k".

    #2 - Another work related one, people who take MY ****ing Dairygold from the fridge and leave it on the counter for me to find HOURS later. Cnuts. Same pricks normally leave half their toast in crumb form in there as well, dirty bastards.

    #3 - Women in front at the till. 9 times out of 10 they stand there with the purse closed in the bag until they are told the total, then rummage around for fcuking ages counting out bits of change, then prick about putting their change back in, and the receipt, and then packing their stuff.

    #4 - Children with snots that their parents are either oblivious to or just ignore. Then the kid starts coughing and hacking all over your remote, phone, keys etc.. Minging.

    #5 - People who don't greet you before your name in an email, usually Yanks in fairness. Instead of "Hi John" or "Hello John", you just get "John," - sets me off on the wrong foot with them all the time!

    People who use the word "revert" in the wrong context in emails. They're a plague on society.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭languagenerd


    Having to change the format of a document due to convention and not liking how it looks.

    So trivial, but it just looks wrong now, dammit!

    when your watching a match in the pub when a bloke enters and stands in front of the TV deciding weather to watch the match or not and then lingers for 5 minutes or so standing around while deciding.

    related, people who look through pub windows to check the score then linger for a few minutes watching it.

    That depends on how much yeast used-

    You wrap your jesus loaf in a grease proof muslin, throw it in a giant pizza oven at about 30°C and bake for three days.

    Mind though that the oven door doesn't open of it's own accord and the air gets in at your jesus loaf and makes it shrink to nothing, leaving only the muslin wrapper in the oven.

    /gets coat, fecks off down to the bakery for some hot cross buns. The hot baker always gets cross when I touch her buns! I can't help it, they're delicious!

    Happy Yeaster everybody
