    Self service tills are great, but why do they have to talk at me!

    There is a button on the Tesco ones anyway at the bottom to control the volume on these.


    Only found this out recently/

    People who say "Gords" when they mean "Guards" , their address ends in a 4 !

    Posh fcukers on the news always pronounce it that way. Why is it that you never hear anyone with a normal Dublin accent working on television and radio?

    That's like saying you can have sex with Jennifer Lawrence but you'll have to do it in a threesome with Susan Boyle..

    Yeah that Lawrence one is cat altogether but if I had to ride her to get to Susan Boyle, I would.

    Jennifer Lawrence is definitely somewhere in my top 10 at the moment! I'd definitely take a hit and jump SuBo to have a crack at her, i'd even consider giving Danny Boyle a go if Jennifer was sitting there waiting her turn!

    Because they'd never live it down with their friends if they were forced to say 'dun layerra ' instead of the usual 'dun leery' pronunciation for the town.

    Joe DUffy is the exception but he's just freaky

    Not actually sure if it can be classed as trivial as it could (in theory) prove fatal, but drivers who don't indicate. A quick question to all you guilty miscreants; why do you think indicators were put on motorvehicles? Because they're a pretty yellow colour?

    You forgot the 'y' after the initial C!

    I think that's been brought up already. Drives me mad at roundabouts.

    People who have pictures of what they are selling on Donedeal sideways or upside down, if they have the intelligence to upload photos how hard can it be to use the rotate function?

    People who think that because they've been to "the dam" (Amsterdam) they've become experts in the field of stone-ology and are now some way linked to rastafarian-ism

    Many of these have also been to 'San Fran'. I used to get annoyed listening to people who'd been there saying...'over in San Fran...' and 'San Fran this' and 'popped down to San Fran' like they had built the place.

    San Fran me bollix.

    San Fran is actually the dogs bollix in fairness! :p

    I wouldn't dare suggest otherwise. It's the unashamed name-dropping that these people do that I find annoying.

    Or people who put them on after they have slowed the car and started to turn. Note: its too fuucking late then! Have also seen idiots driving along with them still on long after they have turned, and indicating one way and going the other...and learners have a bad rep? :)

    Getting an uneven number of thanks on a post.

    So someone asks you the name of a website.

    You answer: (name of website) .com

    They then say: So do I just Google that name.

    Me: :confused: I just told you the name of the website

    :rolleyes:

    Would you really be surprised the number of people that type 'facebook' into the search box on the Google home page?




    You don't believe me, do you? :D
