    Non absorbent tea towels that push the water around the plate and leave it covered in hairs :mad:

    That reminded me of:
    You get out of the shower, grab the towel, get into the drying business and what happens!? Fcuking nothing! Might as well shake it all off like a dog. :mac:
    That was a towel given with a hairdryer as a freebee, quite obvious why.

    Whiskeyman, thanks for tip off but Yuck!
    He was actually ok, didn't say a word and didn't smell. Got off at the same stop but walked away in the opposite direction.

    When you want to register a web address and you check to see if it's available and it says it's already taken and you go to the website to see what it is but it's not active! So annoying!

    (This has only happened me two times.)

    When my housemates creep up on me out of nowhere and scare the living sh*t out of me. But any other time they're walking around the house it sounds like a f*cking elephant parade is going on. F cking weirdos.

    On my way into town and the bus driver is seriously driving approx 30km the whole way in. There's 2 long stretches of road that are quiet enough at this time of eve & he's sauntering along.... Even breaking as he approaches green lights. (I know you need to check junctions before you clear them but your not even going fast enough buddy!!!)
    There's def somewhere he doesn't want to be!!! Haha

    Also, it's nobody's fault but so irritating at this time of night when every single stop has just 1 person at it....... :(

    He sounds o.k to me. Sat beside you, ignored you, got off the bus and walked in the opposite direction to you. Now when I did that (that time I went to the pictures with Joey) He just couldn't understand it at all. Some people huh?:confused::D

    On the subject of buses, I hate getting a driver who is in an arsey mood. Jesus, we all have crappy days and stress to deal with, but some of these guys are just downright rude and aggressive at times.

    I almost forgot one of my biggest peeves, people who change their minds about buying frozen goods in the supermarket, instead of bringing them back to the freezer cabinet or giving the frozen stuff to the person on the checkout they just dump it on a random shelf.:mad:

    When someone who you know walks down the street after you, on your heels, but doesn't actually let you know they are there/ say hello. Trivial yes, but goddam weird too!

    There are two sticky out smillies there because the text input for them is case sensitive and if you used a capital P to create the smiley it worked but if you used a lower case p to write it then you just ended up with [noparse] :p [/noparse]

    I think DeV put it in as a quick fix and it has never been tidied up

    Ha! Reading that is like when you hit your funny bone, you know you shouldn't be laughing, but you can't help yourself - I winced but couldn't help laughing at the same time :D

    Narrowly avoided it myself once -

    The phrase "She broke more banjo strings than an epileptic hillbilly" springs to mind:D

    Pet hate of mine are people with UK/NI style plates with Irish Registered Cars.
    This is really prevalent in Donegal. If you want UK plates move there.

    I absolutely loathe those
    "Please share this pic of a flower on your profile for 12 minutes to show how you care about "Generic Disease X" . Only those who really really really care will make the effort to move their mouse three inches and click the 'like' and 'share' button. If you dont you are contributing to the death of a polio suffering cancer riddled puppy in Guatemala.
    What I loathe is the fact that some couch potato is actually feeling worthwhile and that they are some how doing a noble deed and contributing to the greater good by generating spam.
    But what i absolutely ****ing resent is the implication that if you dont follow the herd you are indifferent to what ever the (probably) noble cause is.
    I was taken to task by a friend or two in the past for refusing to do this crap. Friends who were (NOT ****ING NOW MATEY!!) oblivious to the fact that after holding my mother in laws hand as she died of oesophagial cancer I have raised several thousand on Shave or Dye, Lollypop day, daffodil day and hosted several coffee mornings for my local hospice.
    **** away off with your pic of a ****ing flower.!!


    Feeling better now.....:cool:

    People organising their home life from their desks while other people (i.e. me) pick up the work slack. :mad:

    Guess who'd be the biggest prick in the world if I brought it up though :P
