    Self entitled bint on the bus this morning. I was happy to stand in the aisle rather than beat my way down to the seats at the back like a hatchet lady, but as we approached the next stop I could see loads of people waiting to get on so I thought, well I'll scurry down the back and be out of their way. There was clearly a seat beside her where her coat was spilling over so I inched over and said, "excuse me" and she just looked at me and didn't bother moving her coat. So, I did the only thing I could, and sat on it. Should have seen the silly cow trying to tug it out from under my fat trivially annoyed a**. Should have let one rip on it too :P

    I think the driver may actually have the heating on on this bus.

    That my bank is getting slower and slower processing transactions. Wages used to go in around 10pm on Thursday. Then midnight. Then 8am. This morning was 10am. Wtf are they doing with my money in the meantime?

    Also, overdrawing your account and then charging you for the privilege even though you dont have an overdraft facility. I called to complain and the guy said "we'll put your ac on a special setting that means if you have insufficient funds your card will be declined" - is that not what's supposed to fuucking happen??

    As if buses are not enough of a cesspit of germs and mank, he has to incubate the thing aswell.

    You find an interesting thread in AHs. Read through it and then post something that turns out to be the kiss of death for the thread as no-one posts anything else.

    Oh yes, on another forum I'm on, I effortlessly kill threads :D.

    Absolutely hated milk in those cartons. 9 times out of 10 they didn't open properly.

    Number 3 happens to me at least 4 or 5 times per day. And then sometimes the plug will yank out of my machine due to it and the office has to suffer the sh*t I listen to while I make the decision to pause my media player, or plug the f*cker back in.

    Hot weather, well not so much hot weather, as the unravelling, and the exposure to armpits which have not seen soap/water since Christmas. I was walking behind a guy today who could have part of a germ warfare experiment. If he had been dropped behind enemy lines in the middle of the jungle, the Viet Cong would have run for the hills. Fcuking disgusting. And to compound that, there are people who seem to think jackets never need cleaning/washing....just plain manky! I shudder to think what a packed LUAS, or DART smells like at 5.30pm, with them all arms in the air holding the rails...............like smelly baboons.

    They were cnuts of things but then that 1 time in 10 it did work it was poetry in motion that gave immense satisfaction and a beautiful pour that made up for all the effing and blinding the rest of the time.

    I walked past 3 teenage scrotes with a baby in Dunnes during the week. The stench of stale urine on them would fell an elephant. I had to hold my nose every time I walked down an aisle they were in. Frigging awful.

    Food/Drink items listed on the menu/board that aren't available.

    You wait in queue for 10 minutes get to the top of the queue and then get a slack jawed 'computa says nao' response to your request .... sarry we're out of them .... oh really well then take the fvcking sign down or cross the item out.

    Or alternatively refund me the 10 minutes stood in a queue behind these ape-people.

    - Id like one of those please.

    - 'puta says no

    - oh very well, may I have 16 of the other then, and five bottles of water, 23 sugar cubes, 11 types of sauces and 4 varieties of cup.

    - that'll be 56 euro please sir.

    - Ohhh bad luck, it seems on this occasion Im all out of euros, however, perhaps we can make this transaction in Yemini rials. Seems like Ive wasted your fvcking time doesn't it.

    Here we go again. A man was shot outside a gym "only 50 metres away from a creche" - hello!!!!!!! That's two swimming pools away ffs! It could have been a child brigade at it again...

    My horror that HB have tried to pull the wool over my eyes. They have reintroduced Freaky Foots as Funny Feet now and are nothing like their predesessors, yet HB have have put the tag on the box stating "back from the 80's". No they are diffesrnt are dont taste anything like the Freaky Foots of the past. Shame on you HB

    Trying to buy stamps at lunch time. Post office closed at lunch time; grand, there's an automatic machine in the shopping centre near me. That was out of order. SIIIIIGH. OK, I know a shop that sells them, it's a small bit out of my way, but I need some: they're sold out :mad:
