    When the girl you have been seeing wants to have a chat "about us" which means you are about to get dumped. Pretty sure i will be on the receiving end of that chat this evening!

    My last bf wanted to have that chat. It was like a job interview!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,166 ✭✭✭Tasden


    Could be about "the three of us" :)

    (by which I mean PREGNANT, not threesome)

    Ooh didn't think of this!

    Congratulations!

    Sometimes that's a chat about making things more serious or at least discussing where its heading. Don't know which you'd prefer, good luck though! :pac:

    Its definitely not about pregnancy so its something like where is this going/we should end it I reckon.

    I'd prefer the second option myself....

    Maybe she wants to introduce her twin sister to the fun....:rolleyes:

    Checkout people who make comments about the stuff you've purchased as they're checking it through.
    "Ohh, I just love these chocolates too"
    "I really love the smell of fresh basis"
    "Multi-pack of condoms? Someone's getting lucky tonight"

    Yep, that really bugs the crap out of me. My husband loves real ales, so whenever I see some new ones in Dunnes I'll get him some. I have to try to avoid the checkout woman who always, always asks me if they're nice. I don't know, I don't drink them, every time you ask me that question I give you the same answer 'I don't know, I don't drink beer, my husband likes them'

    Unlikely!

    I guess I will just have to wait and see.

    People, mainly in my office, still bathering on about Christmas.

    People, mainly in my office, buying things in the sales to be used as gifts for next Christmas.

    Get over it people!

    When people say they love their job. I always think they are either lying or they make me envious as I don't love mine. I just tolerate it in order to pay the bills and /or until I figure out what I really want to do. But i don't know what that is yet! :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,318 ✭✭✭Vel


    Young girls dressed as mini versions of their mothers - fur gilets, leather boots, that kind of get up.

    Young girls whose parents constantly dress them in pink. I've yet to meet anyone, be they ,an, woman, child or beast who really suits pink!

    Same here, I feel like a drone in sector 7G, it could be worse but could be better. My OH makes me wanna puke, fuucken loves her job, jumps out bed every morning looking forward to work!! She would do it for free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Oops69


    People wishing you 'happy new year ' still , look, go away its the middle if January , all my 'season of good will ' good Cheer is long gone and right now I feel like having a castle knock chess game with you !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 480 ✭✭saltyjack silverblade


    "You look exactly like [your sibling's name]!".

    Really? I look exactly like the person I am closely genetically linked too. Amazing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    Oh, you don't look like either of your parents. WTF do you say to that? It's always tempting to answer with 'are you calling my mother a whore? What a stupid and utterly pointless thing to say to someone. It's usually some friend of my parents who makes that kind of remark too.

    Reminded me of something I posted in the previous "Trivial things..." thread -

    This reminds me of something my mother said last night at a family barbecue-

    "You were the only one in the family with that olive skin that tans like that", I took a look round at my ferociously freckled, ginger haired brothers that looked like a pack of topless lobsters and had a bit of a "WTF? She's right!" moment, then just thought to myself...

    "What are you trying to say mam?" :pac:


    Being unable to quote directly from a locked thread, that's annoying! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,720 ✭✭✭Sir Arthur Daley


    People who keep nitpicking.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,441 ✭✭✭old hippy


    People who dismiss others as loonies and crusties because they are opposed to war.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,724 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    People that just launch dishes into the dishwasher - there is a system. Always results in it having to be rearranged before you can fit everything in.


    :mad::mad: Every time!!:mad::mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,421 ✭✭✭major bill


    Poor manners!!!

    People that don't say thanks when a door has been opened for them or when you let them out in traffic.

    saying hi or hello to someone in a corridor and been ignored


    No need for it.

    "Shannon Whoreport" though hippy?

    Because that's not designed to get a prickly reaction at all at all... :D
