    Buying clothes in shops, it seems as if
    jumpers,,coats, in xl,xxl, sizes vary from shop to shop.
    xl in 1 shop is the same as xxl in shop two.
    People who use phones in church,
    for god sake if you are going to a funeral ,switch off your phone, use airplane mode.
    you can do without texting for 20 minutes.

    people who spend 1000,s on confirmation ,
    limos, etc
    And these are the same people who only go to church for weddings ,funerals .

    Perhaps in 10 years time your children ,
    will need help going to college ,or maybe help getting a deposit on a house.
    Put that money in a savings account for that purpose,

    Did the celtic tiger kill the concept of saving money for future needs .

    Your supermarkets are open on Good Friday? They are all closed here.

    What part of the country are you in? Haven't noticed anything here.

    Annoying thing: when people at the gym put weights back on the racks all over the place. They're clearly labelled with which weight to stick onto it and people still treat it like an arts and crafts project.

    People who spit chewing gum onto the ground, they should be made to lick it back up. Just looking at the sole of my shoe here, and now face the lovely task of removing it. Ugh :mad:

    The volume that wedding bands play their music at. Last wedding I was at I spent the evening talking to an elderly man who like me had retreated to the main entrance from the noise. Met a neighbour at the end of the night who sounded like he had laryngitis. He spent the evening in the room shouting over the music to talk to people. In fairness there's no need for it.

    The use of 'alot' drives me mental, but I've just seen 'a lot of' expressed on this forum as 'alotta'. Now I need to lie down.

    The line "I know you better than you know yourself" always gets me grinding my teeth, I don't like when people assume to know what you're thinking or going to do.

    I hate phone calls.
    I could talk the back legs of a donkey face to face but I don't call for chitchat so when people call me I usually end up cleaning the kitchen, watering the plants, doing the laundry etc. If I have nothing as such to do I walk mindlessly in circles :P Or doodle...

    Trivial things that annoy me: phone calls :(

    I despise talking on the phone! I never answer incoming calls. All my friends know I hate talking on the phone, so they know I won't answer if they ring, and to text me or ring me two or three times if it's an emergency.

    Some friends who live within a 15 minute drive away try to keep the "friendship" going through phone calls alone. I make it quite clear to them that... no. I'd rather no friendship.

    Was really tired last night so fell asleep pretty quickly and slept pretty well.

    But at some point I obviously moved my head a bit, and spent at least some part of the night with my earlobe rolled over on itself under my head.

    Hurts like a bastard this morning.

    Put on accents, particularly on radio. Some newsreaders are dreadful for this, to the point that I struggle to know what they mean.

    Get your own back when on your hen party, promise you will call every day, and then turn your phone off.

    People disliking a place for being cold (strangely enough I've come across this a lot). Eh would you not check what is the weather like in that time of a year when you're planning on going? "I didn't like Berlin because it was freezing and we had to buy extra clothes and it was dark very early!" Eh genius, you went there in January... :pac:

    Then wrap up and stop whining.:):rolleyes:

    The McDonalds ad with people making weird gurning facial expressions. I must be missing something because it looks like they aren't enjoying whatever it is they're supposed to be eating.

    I've never eaten anything from McDonalds and that ad makes it even more unlikely that I ever will.

    Cellulitis infection. I've got one under my arm and it hurts. Was hoping to avoid taking the antibiotics I got yesterday but when I checked this morning the area has gotten bigger, I always draw a circle around the area so I know if it's getting better or worse. Didn't sleep much even though I did my best to anaesthetise myself with gin last night:(

    Or those "I was in xy and I know everything about the locals, I even how they think and what they do before going to bed etc. The whole country is horrible, people are rude etc. or I love that place everything is much better than back home, everything works, people love living there. They are happy."

    Hmm, interesting input, how long did you live there?? "Eh I was there 3 days for a break."

    Oh wonderful, you spent 3 days in 1 place in a certain country and you could already write thesis about it. Bravo!
