Lies, some roundabouts are treacherous! There is one up by me and there is forever accidents on it! 3 lane roundabout, best thing they ever done was put lights on it and its still dodgey!

If the roundabout needs lights, then remove the roundabout

When you've been frequenting the same coffee shop for the past few months and are able to get in and out without any exchanges with the cashier bar the usual please and thank you and then they start to recognise you and then one day 'the chat' happens and now you can't go in and out anonymously anymore and must engage in small talk, which mainly seems to be about the weather as quite frankly there is nothing else for us to chat about. If I wasn't addicted to the scones I'd have to seriously consider going elsewhere!

Enjoy it while you can. We've got to try somewhere new this week as the place we used for years has decided that a toasted sandwich is no longer being served before noon. What absolute bollix thought it up I don't know. It didn't force us to order from the breakfast menu, it just meant that we only bought coffee and will go elsewhere, as will a lot of their regulars.

I don't know what it is with some businesses. It didn't help that after telling me that they don't serve them until after noon she proceeded to ask me if I'd like a scone instead

No, I did not want a fcuking scone, if I'd wanted a fcuking scone I'd have ordered a fcuking scone.

traffic lights on roundabouts, defeats the purpose of roundabouts.

I hate to be the 'only in Ireland' guy, but does this ever happen outside Ireland? I seem to recall it was first done on the Red Cow junction (and then the other M50 junctions), when it finally became obvious to our determinedly-shortsighted transport planners that a roundabout wasn't going to cut it. Looking at the crazy junctions at the Red Cow/Blanchardstown you have to wonder how much money the cost-saving decisions not to implement cloverleaf junctions in the first place actually cost us.

The guy opposite me in work chews his tongue. Sometimes he will stick it out and slurp the side of his face while he chews it. Looks like an excited dog waiting for a tennis ball.

Some skanky woman left the casing of her tampax tampon in the shower cubicle at my gym.

For the uninitiated, the tube casing is the bit that's placed in the front of the hole to help push the tampon in.

So it's clearly an "internal" thing.

The man mini bun.
It just makes most of the lads look really stupid imo.

And while I'm at the shallow visual issues. The popularity of beards. I've got mates, who've been sporting beards way before the trend kicked in but now it seems like every second guy is growing a beard. The big bushy one.
I've gotten to like the stubble look or even the short trimmed beard but not the bushy beards. I know it's really my "problem" but I'm starting to feel like there won't be any men to kiss very soon!:(

The really funny thing is that they sell both fruit scones and brown scones and I've yet to be there when someone orders a fruit scone and isn't told that they're out of fruit scones. So in a way I was a saint for not asking for a fruit scone, otherwise I'd have had to launch myself across the table and throttle her when she told me they didn't have any left:D

When you're taking in a line full of lovely, clean, washed clothes, and you discover a big drop of bird do on them.
And its never a small bit either, it's like something that fell from a B-52

Governments and employers referring to people as resources. Resources are electricity etc. People are people.

They don't get 188 for going on course anymore. They might get an increase but not to 188 AFAIK and they dropped the "Book Allowance". It does nothing for Live Register figures to have people on Back to Education.

Advantages of Back to Education:-

1. You can work for 20hours
2. You get a free course
3. You see an increase in your Jobseeker's Allowance.
4. Your money goes into the bank
5. You don't have to sign on

Though I agree, people should be put on suitable course. DSP are to busy trying to change things but have failed to make changes so that they can advise people as to what they should do in terms of work and education.

I'm not familliar with the BTE scheme, but they seemed convinced that they'd get 188 a week, they'll be in for a disappointment so.

Get a clean knife, take some butter, spread it on the toast. Instead of rub the knife in butter, rub it on toast, realise you don't have enough and repeat.
