Is that why they have bullsh1t names like Candi and stuff? That makes so much sense actually.

For me its TV programmes like eastenders showing someone experiencing a real life mishap, then at the end of the program "If you have been effected by this episode call the Ive stubbed my toe hotline, there will be someone to help."

Fecking hell don't wrap the whole of life in cotton wool.

Indeed, and they never seem to have a helpline for those affected by the p1ss poor acting and predictable script... Oh wait, is that a remote control I spy?

Colette Browne's opinion pieces for the Irish Independent. How one person can conjure a constant stream of drivel and nonsense is beyond me.

Martina Devlin. Not only is she a complete assault on the senses (cut your hair ya fuucking ginger rake!) but it's so obvious that she just writes her s1t to stir things up a bit so people will complain and therefore bump her profile- what a pathetic way to cling to your column. Give it over to someone who actually can write...

(I'm secretly burning up with envy - imagine having your own column where you could spout whatever fuucking drivel you wanted every week - and lots of people to read it. The world according to me and why you're all a pack of imbeciles! hahahaaaaaa) sigh.....:P

I'm supposed to be in court tomorrow and my solicitor said she would adjourn the hearing until March or April. I haven't heard from her since then and it's sooo difficult to actually talk to her. I dont know if it's adjourned or not. It's not trivial but it's so fudging annoying.

Murder? Unpaid parking fines? Incest? Victim?

The LUAS ticket machine touch screen, or hammer screen as it should be called. I only use the LUAS occasionally, thankfully, because if I was to use it every day I would have stumps for fingers

Unwanted advice! I was in the local having a quite pint by myself and as I have a cold, I got a fit of coughing - nothing unusual for a cough/cold sufferer. Then this auld biddy turns and starts giving me old wives tales of cures that I wouldn't try on a lab rat. Píss off and leave me alone you auld harridan! It's a virus, there is no cure only pain relief and time for my immune system to adjust to the new strain.

This a real bug bear of mine....

People who sit in the car with the engine on. Especially annoying when you are minding kids.

For example, I am bringing the kids to school. I am getting the kids out of the car to go into the schoolyard. There is a guy beside me sitting in the car. He has the engine on. He's looking at his phone.

Is he staying?

Is he going?

Can I walk out in front of him with the kids?

Should I wait for him?

Ditto if you are looking for a car park space, and you think the guy is leaving......and you wait.....and you wait.....and he's still sitting there, with the engine on, not moving, reading the phone.

Why cant he just turn the engine off, and save everyone the guessing game.

Real pain in the hole that. (And for anyone who wants to make a suicide joke, its too obvious, you wouldnt be proving anything and clearly not what I'm talking about).

Walking behind the car would be the safer option all round surely? I can remember from learning my safe cross code 30 odd years ago that when you get off the bus, walk behind the bus so that oncoming cars can see you and let you cross the road, rather than trying to walk from the front of the bus straight into traffic.

I had always assumed the same for cars, no? Walk behind the car, so that oncoming traffic can see you, rather than walking in front of the car straight out into traffic that can't see you.

Thats if they are driving on the road.....

If a car is stationary in a carpark with the engine on then (i) there's possibly no room behind him (ii) you are taking in the fumes behind him and (iii) you actually dont know which way he will drive......could reverse, could go forward.....

People trying to offload post Xmas crap.

Kids in supermarkets. I was queuing this morning and a kid of about 4, was behind me with her mother. The child kept bumping into my back, but what can you do she's a child. The mother wasn't paying attention and I just couldn't be bothered to make an issue of it at the time. It was only later that I realised the back of my coat had bits of the biscuity snack thing the child had been eating all over it.:mad:

I take the passive aggressive route and sigh loudly and shake my head at the parent until they do something

I've been known to do that many a time, but I'm a bit viral and wooly headed at the moment and just wanted to get home to some warm solpadeine:D

This time of year, sometimes you have to clear the windows before you can move off. It's handier when you have all the necessary cloths, scrapers, etc. handy to do it by hand, but sometimes you just have to sit there for a couple of minutes while the air con clears the window.
