People in supermarkets who assume its their right to eat a few grapes while browsing through the fruit section

Johnwayne98 · 04-05-2014 10:49PM

You're for the birds

Johnwayne98 · 04-05-2014 10:51PM

People who pass a skip outside a house and assume they can throw all their rubbish into it.

Johnwayne98 · 04-05-2014 10:52PM

People who express their grattitude by saying 'sound' instead of thank you.

And people who say 'cheers' instead of thank you

God I hate people who say cheers. My granny used to write 'cheers' on the few xmas/bday cards she did manage to send to me. She was a wagon and because of that, I now hate the word 'cheers'.

Any topic about college. You'll always get some people that make some sort of comment of the persons grammar as if you still study English in college. (well, some do but most dont). You need a ordinary level pass in the leaving cert for the majority of courses, not past experience writing Shakespearean sonnets.

i am a woman of the world but that does not mean all creatures are ....simpatico...i have a sturdy mystical streak and large black birds give me the creeps. magpies too and great black backed gulls

after all, these are all creatures who predate on other critters. had a kitten taken by a magpie and lost many chicks to gulls. chicks that would have grown to feed me and others..

as i say to folk who speak as you do. taking what you say, should we welcome slugs on our vegetable plants, or the microbes etc that cause illnesses. or let mice and rats loose in your kitchen..

sentimental i am not! far too much a woman of the world for that;)

when i am at one weekly market i feed sparrows and a robin but chase off any crow that tries to muscle in...

Male skangers in pajamas. I didn't know until today that the disease of pajama wearing in public had crossed the gender divide. Saw a guy wearing pajama bottoms, flip flops and a hoody in the shopping centre today. I thought it was bad with women/girls doing it but there's just something utterly depressing seeing guys dress like that in public.

Whaaaaaaa'?? :eek:

Ohh Christ please let this just be that one guy that thinks he has to be "an individual", rather than an indication that the phenomenon has indeed crossed gender divides!

Bad enough we see women at this craic without men joining them in a race to the bottom.

Meanwhile - 'siblings'?

It can't be that difficult to say 'brothers and sisters'. 'Siblings' always sound so aloof and impersonal.

There's a fella actually regularly comes into our shop with a onesie on him.

Saw two guys at Dublin Airport Departures, in onesies, last year.

speaking of clothes, heavily pregnant women wearing skin tight clothes..last time i was at the hospital there was clearly a maternity clinic down the corridor..they may as well have been naked.

i like the word siblings. but i got used to it on a remote island where inbreeding was a danger so they all knew who was "sib". cosy word..my two home cats are siblings. i use the word a lot

Talc Powder, honestly. As long as there's no wound on the skin this works a treat.

Sean Moncrieff's Crossfire quiz show is
really annoying me at the moment as there is such a macho air about it. Mostly guys on it. Was wondering if many women applied to enter. A guy, Shane, who was on it tonight said that his mother had been the one to see the notice about the show. They had both been on quiz programmes previously and she had done better than he had. Both of them had applied for Crossfire but only he was accepted!

ardle1 · 06-05-2014 02:10AM

I'd say they go for youth. It is quite a good quiz show but I don't see how it's macho.

I watch a lot of quiz shows and I have never seen such a gender imbalance as there is on Crossfire. Jonathan McCrea
has just completed 'The Lie' and there was a far better cross-section of people
among the participants.

Elmo · 06-05-2014 02:49AM

I doubt very much the producers set out to have an imbalance both shows are produced by the same company. On the two occasions I have seen crossfire there was one woman playing.

It's better than the lie tbh

There. Just, the mere mention of that clown, the 'cute hoor' head on him, the sharp, ear-splitting tone of his voice like he's been sucking helium when he's not on air... Sneery, snivelling little shìte! :mad:

Phew, that was coming a while! :pac:
