    People who sit at the front of a bus and place all their belongings (bag, coat, scarf, gloves) overhead then when the bus comes to its final stop they jump out of their seat first and proceed to stand in the aisle and put their stuff on while a queue forms behind them.

    When I'm on a bus or train, on an unfamiliar route, and I get myself all ready to get off, Gather bags, Put book/phone away, Don the scarf, gloves, hat, the lot. Get to the Door and realize, We're miles from the stop I need. :mad: :o :rolleyes:

    When you're watching tv with someone and they laugh at something but simultaneously look across at you :confused:

    What the actual f*ck? :mad:

    Every f*cking time they laugh they look at you
    :confused: as though they're saying in their minds "HAHAHA! Are you laughing too? :D"

    Just f*ck off! It really irritates my peripheral vision you freak.

    Valentines day, we hate it and basically ignore it, however we've got a left over bottle of champagne in the fridge so we'll be opening it as an anti valentine drink. Will need it after taking 4 buses to get to and from the pointless outpatient appointment at the hospital, ffs, they could just phone me and ask me the same questions that they ask me every 6 weeks, then fax the repeat prescription to my pharmacist.

    My sentiments exactly! I found a way around this problem (the hospital one, OH found a way around the other) that keeps everyone happy. I don't know if it would be suitable for your situation, and you've probably thought of it anyway, I don't think this is the thread for me to go into it on either. So p.m me if you want me to tell you what I did. :)

    I just remembered the thing that annoys me most is toilets.

    Every time I go to the toilet i can push the two doors in without touching any handles.

    But every time I leave I have to pull the shaggin door after god knows how many people haven't washed there hands have touched it after going to the toilet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭dubstarr


    Another one no matter which door you go to pull open,its always the other one.

    not to mention every time you shake hands, use a keyboard, use any other door handle on the planet, handle money, tie your shoelaces, accept a cup of coffee from a waitress who has been handling money all day, juggle cat faeces..it's never ending

    Yes! This irritates me so much. Sensor doors would be great in public toilets.

    Doing a class at the gym that has a load of lockers in the corridor right outside the room. Obviously after a class there's going to be about thirty people all trying to get their stuff out of the lockers at the same time. So everyone understands that the appropriate thing to do is queue by the wall in an orderly fashion to get to the locker, take your stuff, turn back around and carry it down the hall to sort yourself out there where there's space.

    Except for that one person (the worst thing is it's not the same person each time, there's just always one), who squeezes through where other people are patiently waiting, to get to a locker, blocking up the entire procession of both people trying to get in and people trying to get back out, to get every last piece of clothing, shoes, bag, etc. on their body before leaving the locker area.

    It's not being held up that I find annoying - I'm in no rush. It's that people are just ignorant like that for no reason sometimes. That's what really annoys me.

    When you walk into a cubicle just literally after someone's taken a dump.

    That's not trivial!

    It's that initial, hot gust that gets you in the nose. It hasn't been diluted by the air yet. :(

    If I hear any more bawling about the contents of people's freezers due to the current power-cuts I'll do someone an injury. They're talking about a couple of cubic feet of a yoke in the kitchen with about €20 worth of Tesco Value Gazebo Pure Irish Beef-Like Substance in it. About twenty years ago the same happened to my father, except the freezer was in a garage, was about the size of a small hatchback, and it had half a bullock in it. Did he complain? Did he swear like a wounded Dutch pirate? Absolutely. But we were talking about £500 or so worth of beef back when money was money, lad! :D

    Left the car in a while back to get the alternator belt changed. Small job and I thought it would be 60-80€. My drop literally dropped to the fcuking floor when I got the bill a few weeks later for 3 hundred and fifty ****ing euro!
    The car is barely worth 3 hundred and fifty ****ing euro so why the fcuk would I spend that on a minor repair.

    Needless to say I rang up to give him a piece of my fcuking mind. No way would I have paid 3 hundred and fifty fcuking euro had I known it would cost 3 hundred and fifty fcuking euro before he started. This was Wednesday and I'm still fcuking furious.

    Thanks, but there's no way out of it, it's a weird thing that they keep tabs on.
