    Litter.
    People who dump household rubbish in and around public litter bins. I was out walking last night, and saw this, in a number of different areas. Disgusting.

    The aircon in Mrs. Goose's car is out of action this long time. With the warm weather coming in now I'm going to repair it, but the system is pissing out refrigerant somewhere. Grrrr. Fungbassid HVAC leaks, hate hate hate!! :mad:

    This gets better. Courtesy of the good burghers at the EU, it is now effectively illegal to pump a blacklight dye into a HVAC that's known to be leaking. Also, the upcoming ban on R134a refrigerant has resulted in it being astronomically expensive. Apparently it's bad for the sky, or some shyte. The new R1234yf stuff has been known to explode on contact with hot oil, but that only maims scumbag humans and not little fluffy forest creatures so that's alright.

    Looks like I'll talk to ye from the burns unit of the medical centre in Mountjoy sometime next week! :D

    Grown women who put on a fake little girly laugh:mad: Amanda Holden is on Sky news and is a prime offender, can't stand her either. I don't know why but that fake giggly little school girl laugh in a woman just pi*ses me off.
    Women who speak in a high pitched childish voice are even worse. Sharon Osbourne does my head in.

    I would've said Sharon Osbourne was just a cackling modern day Ms. Haversham. Nasal American women, drive me spare. Sharon Osbourne and Sarah Michelle Gellar are classic examples of the phenomenon.

    A girl working where I get my nails done calls every single woman she talks to "missus", it drives me insane, even elderly ladies and it just sounds disrespectful then

    ATMs that are permanently out of service. FFS, there is one in a shop near where I work, and I have never seen it in service. Ridiculous.

    You're standing at the till in the local shop with a few bits-and-pieces in hand, waiting to pay. The person (generally young) behind the counter says "Are you alright?". What? Am I alright?? Why yes, I'm perfectly well thank you. I'd just like to pay for these and leave. Is that alright? Are you alright?? :confused:

    Or 'yawrigh'...even worse. :mad:

    micky I appreciate your concern, genuinely I do, but around here in the trivial thread we tend to take the piss a bit. The young lad is in no danger I can assure you.


    But again, I do thank you and appreciate your concern.

    Throw a blanket over him and leave him there. He'll be fine. Just make sure the doors and windows are locked.

    Himself and Rihanna are responsible for the 'we found dove in a soapless place' headwrecker. I can't stand that song, it was played everywhere at any time.

    A bit off topic but for some reason this reminds me of a story my mum told me about my Dad and her brother in law having a race to put together 2 Wendy houses that Santa brought 1 Christmas eve. They were both totally rat arsed and decided to see which of them could put it together fastest. I don't remember who won but I do remember the Wendy house.

    Funnily enough that was the only Christmas they and their kids came to us for Christmas:D

    Would it be similar to Spin 1032.

    First car I had could only tune Spin 1032 in, In Dublin at the time the newsreaders would say "this is the story I am "name" on Spin 1032", one of their names was Rory "this is the story I am Rory on Spin 1032".
