    When you're in a queue and it moves a little bit and you can feel the pressure from the pr1cks behind trying to get you to move up, even though there are still 5/6 people in front and nobody is going anywhere anytime soon. Yes lets all move 6 inches every minute instead of just taking one step when the time is right.

    Same as the "lets get our **** together at 20000 feet, so we can be first in the 20 minute shuffle to the door" brigade.

    The opposite of which is when myself and OH are driving any sort of distance, she will remove shoes for comfort, fine. Then we arrive at destination, park, apply handbrake, turn off lights, turn of radio, turn off engine, remove seatbelt and then, and Only then, does she start to put the shoes on, adding at least two minutes to a ninety minute journey!!!

    Me too. I can feel the panic from behind :) You just know that they wont skip you, and even if they ask you to move you can say, "oh, is there a free cashier?" - aaaaah dontcha love being passive aggressive :P

    And they always seem to be the people who have a breath that smells like a polar bears arse, breathin all over the back of your neck.

    Crazy old women with musty clothes and rosary beads and hairy faces thinking they've earned the right to say whatever the fuuck they want to staff working in banks/shops etc. B1tches. No wonder men tend to die off first - it's part of the grand design so they are spared living with them.

    What about queuing for Bus Eireann Expressway at the bus stations, the queues there are like mob rule. If you queue near the bus doorway another queues the opposite way, WHY is this not policed, there should be a CIE inspector roaring at the other lot, QUEUE THE CORRECT WAY PLEASE!

    Right. These two little fvckers.

    1. Red lights - never fvcking there when you need one, always there when you don't.
    2. Why the fvck is it that you can drive past a petrol station 100 times and see no-one at the water/air pumps. Then the 1 fvcking time you want to use it fvcking dopes appear out of the woodwork.


    another thing, and Ive been resisting this for a while out of not wanting to be a hater. But Sean Moncrieff and Will Smith .... can't take it any more, they're both smug self satisfied cvnts.

    Worse are the jerks who text into Sean Monocrieff show. Despite what they think themselves, they are not f***ing funny!

    Posters who use the 15 posts per page setup, rather than 40 posts per page. There is no logical reason for this to annoy me but it does :confused:

    You can set how many posts you want to appear per page. I have mine set at 40. Sometimes I'm reading a thread and someone will say something like "I'm not reading all 10 pages" and the pedant in me goes into over drive as I'll only be on page 3 or 4.

    +1000! What do people think will happen if they allow a centimetre of space between them and the person ahead of them in the queue!

    Public Transport!! It takes an hour and a half to get from Tallaght to Donnybrook (both on the southside of Dublin) by bus, it also takes an hour and a half to get from Longford to Dublin by car. How the fudge does this make sense????

    Hurting my mouth when I eat my dinner too fast. I missed lunch today and shovelled some oven chips into my mouth like a pig at a trough. Stabbed the thin skin over one of my wisdom teeth with an over-cooked oven chip:(
