Trivial things that annoy you

If I see that Flora ad one more time - "Wrestlers by Josh"

And the stupid intentional "mistake" when he says "anninversary" - its not fuucking cute or funny ok! Josh shouldn't be on tv if he cant speak properly. Anninversary.....ffs

And Flora is muck anyway.

I know we may all need to blow the nose in public from time to time but what is it with aul fellas who take out a what used to white hankie and expunge about two pounds of snot into it, then OPEN it and in and peer at it, with an almost proud look on their face, you half expect them to say to you "here, look at that"

"Pick the bones out of that one"

Not a trivial thing, but it annoyed me very much. Charity muggers inside my building today. Inside!!

Is there no end to this sh*t? :mad:

People saying or writing I seen instead of I saw - it's the adult equivalent of eating with your mouth open.

Waaaaaah!

*Fcuks phone away over shoulder*

I've read enough!

*Crosses intersection diagonally*

Feck yiz all!

On that note though, trivial thing that annoys me is those pedestrian crossings at intersections where you only have seven seconds to cross the second one after you've crossed the first one. I don't like being forced to hop, skip and jump across the road while some little prick is revving his engine, half the time I'm tempted to leave his front bumper up on his windscreen with a kick! :mad:

People on the street who tell the charity muggers "sorry, I don't have time right now". Sorry????? For what? Why are you talking to them? I just stare through them like they're not there. I don't blink for the whole 50 yards that they're waving and jumping up and down in front of me and then I sail passed.

Absolutely.

On a similar note, a conversation I had the other evening on Dame Street...

"Story bud, any spare change?"
"Haven't a bean"
"You wanna buy some coke?"
"No I don't want to buy any coke"
"Are you sure you don't want any?"
"Pissss offfff"
*starts walking off* "Prick"
"F*ck you"
*futher away* "Dirtbag"
"F*CK YOU!!"

I have a friend who does that! So annoying. Then I have to counter her niceness by saying really loudly to her, "dont apologise to them, you've nothing to be sorry for!"......and then the world in all its horrible misery and crankiness is balanced again....sigh..... (No, I dont know why she is still my friend either)

My friend's daughter was taught about talking to strangers last year. For 2 days every time someone she didn't know approached them she screamed. Freaked the Hell out of one of the chuggers.. Friend gave money because he was so mortified.
I am not friends with the daughter apparently because I won't give her biscuits when she wants the-her words not mine.

Currently looking at the Penguin Cam for Dublin Zoo and there is a big spider web right in front of it. Wasn't too bad until the sun hit it.

noodler · 12-11-2013 03:37PM

The use of the phrase "to the tune of" in the media.

Bailed out "to the tune of" etc.

Hate it.

Yeah, I've never heard the song '64 billion euros' so I get really upset when I'm sitting with my casio keyboard beside the telly watching the news trying to figure out what song was playing when they were being bailed out.

Is there nothing the porn industry hasn't given us?

Someone should tell them that's not how you broadcast on the web…

saltyjack silverblade · 12-11-2013 03:49PM

You may all mock but I know everyone of you has gone looking for the cam. So I am going to be the bigger person here and put a link to it.
FYI, penguin porn is a thing.
