    The 3 f*cking wasters on the luas with their tracksuit bottoms tucked into their socks.

    They're discussing 'banging birds' and how they hate using rubbers, and they don't use rubbers when they bang their own birds.

    I want to punch them in the f*cking mouth. Now ones coughing right into the side of my head and its all phlegmy. UGH!!!!

    Unfortunately I'd say they're all fathers.

    They're about 19, and I want to injure every one of them. They played a game in Tripid, who can kiss (meet) the fattest bird.

    Oh and they used to get smelly finger in there too. F*cking tools.

    People who bang on forever about their weddings after the event.

    Look it's a great day, I'm delighted for the two of you and it's special to you both. I get that. But no-one else really gives a flying f**k once the day is over. I don't need to see the pictures or be invited to see the dvd that you're showing for the 20th time and that isn't all that funny. Being drunk is funny. Watching yourself and others being drunk when you're sober isn't.

    Keep your special day to yourselves.

    True, the bus I get to work on a Friday morning in Cork (just after all the Uni heads are heading back to college), I have to listen in about John joe banging a ''fat bird'' the other night and all the lads laughing, the same lad would come across as the big man in the group, two weeks ago there was another shower on about basically the same thing and this lad in a suit pipes up, ''listen virgin, watch your mouth'' every single one of us in tears on the bus hahah!

    I might be a bit of a snob, that's fair enough and i'm sure someone smart will say a trivial annoyance of theirs is snobs (bravo!) but scum is far from trivial! I hate that type with a passion, I come from a lovely area but wouldn't consider myself or my friends posh by any means although compared to the tracksuit and cap brigade I guess that's debatable but anyway this type of folk are exactly what floods out my way every summer without fail in their packs, running amok killing each other, wrecking the place and stealing from the shops! I actually avoid the beach here in summer in favour of some of the smaller secluded ones to avoid all that crap!

    These type of people are simply dumb, uneducated, dregs of society! Clearly their parents are incapable of bringing up their kids better as i fully believe you are a product of your environment to a certain extent! It's a viscous cycle with this lot and call me harsh but if a law was being petitioned to sterilize certain types i would have my name top of the list! Some people should not be allowed to reproduce.

    ...rant over.

    People who point out you've gone red.

    As a kid, in school if I was asked to read aloud, I would be embarrassed and my cheeks would go bright red.
    Kids used to notice it and tease me and I felt so self-conscious.

    As I got older, the problem seemed to disappear but now and again I feel my cheeks flame in an awkward or public situation.

    Was chatting to a friend last week about something (can't remember what) and she complimented me. I could feel my cheeks burning and she said "You've gone all red now, did I embarrass you?"

    WHY MENTION IT? WHY point it out when you can see I'm embarrassed?
    I wouldn't dream of being so pass-remarkable to people, yet she felt the need to state the obvious and make me feel worse.
    I also hate people who think it's their God-given right to pass comment on someone's weight.

    A family member of mine is quite overweight but is trying his best to lose weight. He popped into see an elderly relative recently who said:
    "You're really piling it on aren't you? You'd want to do something about that."
    I felt so angry on his behalf, though he just laughed it off.

    How dare people feel they can just insult people like that?

    This really is trivial, but somehow still annoys me

    When you're about to turn right on a long stretch of road, but one car is approaching you and there's not enough room to turn before they pass. Then they slow down, and flash you to let you make the turn - despite there being nothing behind them and it would actually be quicker if they just kept bloody driving at normal speed.

    I know they're only trying to be nice. What's wrong with me?

    Are you me?

    Or people trying to force feed you junk food when they know you are trying to lose weight. My family is like this. I was quite heavy about a year and a half ago and decided I needed to do something about it. They all commented on how fat I was and then when I did lose the weight they were asking me why I wasn't eating cake/biscuits/etc.......the fudge like? The actual fudge?? It's soul destroying to be called fat when you really are trying to lose weight. :(

    Every single time I go home now I get the 'Are you on a diet' bull**** and putting pressure on me to eat all of the junk food.

    It's great for people with fast metabolisms but actually have to watch what I eat.

    My sister is very skinny and everyone is always at her about her weight too! She's skinny but she's not anorexic, I'd wish they'd just leave her alone. Ugh people. :mad:

    Got this a lot when I was losing weight, the more annoying people are the ones "A burger won't hurt" "A few biscuits won't hurt" blah blah blah

    You don't know my mentality, so yes a few biscuits will hurt.
    Píss off and let me eat what I WANT TO EAT. You didn't have an issue when it was crappy fast food.

    You think you have problems. Where I live is sort of middle-of-the-road affluent-ish, but getting a belt of a Bentley driven by an escaped rugby-player is a big problem around here. :D

    I love sliced beetroot myself, but it's the obsession with surrounding it with rabbit food I object to! :mad:


    It's an odd one really, I love just sitting down with a jar of sliced beetroot and a fork or else grapefruit from a can, but I hate vinegar on my chips or grapefruit on it's own! :confused::(

    I fear so. I'm a right old tart - a wedge of Blackforest as big as your head and a half-carafe of four-star Tawny Port, and I'm anybody's. :D

    Beetroot and salt is amazing! I love beetroot sandwiches.

    I'm having chicken, leek, onion, cabbage, white wine sauce with potato and breadcrumbs on top...in 20 minutes when its out of the oven :( I hate the waiting part. Very trivial, very annoying!!

    People arriving unannounced. I know it sounds terrible but it happens in my parents house all the time. Neighbours will just decide to drop in and you are expected to stop whatever you're doing and entertain. My mum doesn't mind, says she likes it as it reminds her of a bygone era where we weren't so caught up in our own lives bah blah but it wrecks my head. I never have free time, ever (except at work and then I come here to you guys ;)) but outside that its a busy schedule and the thoughts of having to drop everything and put the kettle on... pfffft. No way.

    Oddly enough, my parents are the worst culprits for arriving unannounced. Usually when there's a load of half dead hippies strewn about my livingroom of a Saturday morning.
