    I'm with you OP, f*ck making the bed! Just close the damn bedroom door when guests are coming over. The only time I see my bed is when I'm getting into it - ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

    Barbers. Oh man barbers. Sitting there surrounded by people's snot nosed screaming kids on a Saturday while a whole line of them get about 0.4mm taken off the top and then handing over 20 quid for the privilege. I bought an electric shaver and I just buzz the head once a month. Ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

    Shaving. Me bollox am I shaving every morning. Nah, one day a week I'm straight laced, sharp and clean shaven. The rest of the week I'm a motherloving ruggedly handsome, bestubbled bastard. Ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

    Oh Lord Jesus it's a fire. Ain't nobody got time fo' dat!

    -Pairs of socks. Bollocks to that. If I ever have a matching pair on it's pure coincidence.

    -Hear hear to the ironing of most stuff. I mean shirts, dresses, yeah. Pillowcases and jeans and stuff, pfffffffffft.

    -Hair cuts. I get one haircut about every 18 months, get it chopped up around my chin, it's halfway down my back by the time I get it cut again. Spending €70 quid or something every three months?? I will yeah. :rolleyes:

    I'd say you look only masso hunzo.

    The key bit in that post was the "no-one going to see it" bit. I'm guessing someones probably going to see your bits, so there you go, grooming is required. :):D

    Nope, I'm single. :P

    Six to eight months worth of regrowth would drive me insane!

    Birthdays - Who gives a flying fuck that you managed to stay alive for another year... It's not an achievement.

    Pissing - One minute of pure boredom, unless I'm playing the clean the previous user's shit of the bowl game. At least a shit is somewhat enjoyable, and you get to sit down.

    Ads - Thank God for Sky+.

    Topping up my phone - Hurry up automated woman person, I haven't got all day.

    Putting the lid on my dinner in the microwave - Load of bollocks! Ah yeah, the top is lovely and hot, nearly get brain freeze when I work my way down the plate.

    Changing bed clothes - Ah heyor! Just buy new ones. Would need to book a day off work to change the things.

    Waiting for my tea to cool down - Fuck that shit, just pour it half way through the kettle boiling. Save time on waiting on the bastard to boil too.

    Kitchen roll - Dafuq is that all about? Dishcloth for everyting kitchen related.

    Firelighters - Cup of diesel. Be grand.

    Ahhhhhhh....

    I haven't been clean shaven in about 7 years. Not once. Just run the neck trimmer jobby over my entire head twice a week, job done.

    Giving my twin brother a birthday present. Neither of us bother, what's the point!

    Life is not fair. There's you, all groomed and smooth, and some lazy, hairy fecker is getting all your action. I for one hope you get all the boom-boom you deserve and need. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    Cutting any hair. Don't give a fuck, it's boring and stupid and having a sharp implement that close to your face is counter intuitive to existence.

    Eating. Mostly the cooking part. I never would if I could. The best part about food is having a really great poop later.

    Also making the bed. Fuck it. There's no point.

    Shopping at all. I hate it. People shoving, then the queue, then packing it away.

    Putting clothes away. Bad enough I have to wash them. They'll only end up used again. Endless cycle. My wardrobe is the floor.

    Going to sleep. I love sleeping, but the act of going to sleep is bullshit. Lie down in the dark for ages. A second seems like five minutes.

    Hoovering. Thank God the floor here doesn't have a carpet. Hoovering is stupid.

    Waiting for updates to download. Why the fuck is it only when I need to use the software? It works already.

    YouTube. In it's current state, it's unusable. When you have to use a third party add-on to use your platform, you messed up.

    Whatever is making my Internet be a bollix. There's plenty of crap I can be doing online, why is it acting up now for no reason?

    Cleaning my studio. Just like putting clothes away. I'm only gonna be using the pedals again tomorrow. Why put them away?

    EULAs. If I wanted to read a novel, I'd go to the book store.

    What do you not got time for?

    Drying my hair. I let it air dry.

    Ironing.

    99% of news stories on tv or the internet

    Pairing up my socks

    Folding underwear. No one sees in my dresser anyway.

    Knick-knacks. Hate them.

    Make-up and nail polish. Hate it.

    Wearing underwear on hot days. Why?

    Commercials.

    Running out of tea or toilet paper.

    Aw man, I can't believe the hate for ironed bed sheets :pac:

    But they feel sooooo nice when they're all crispy and smooth! Seriously! They're the only thing I iron straight away. Clothes get ironed on a need to wear basis.

    Then if you make the bed they stay all smooth and lovely for aaaaaages

    *snuggles back into duvet*

    Anybody iron their socks?

    Friend of mine irons her socks and knickers! Anything that dries outside gets ironed!

    Worrying what people think. (I can't be bothered analyzing **** anyway most of the time people are doing their own thing no one cares it's great!)

    Unkind people. (it's nice to be nice and it costs nothing)

    People who complain about treats and nice events like 'OMG pride was so full of drink etc'...or people who give out about others do ing nice things...(like omg why give to charity you are only doing it to be seen or charity is all bent anyway etc)

    Snobs.

    Arrogant people. (ties in with snobs...borrrring..)

    People with no thought or time for others and think they are the ****. (Ironically they seem to require the most attention and can be quite needy)

    People who trash things because it is not popular or cool ( I love classical music and Opera for instance ) I don't know a lot about wine or gourmet food but I respect the effort and craft. I think you should respect the skill and hobbies of others.

    Cruelty and abuse of humans obviously but also animals. (you are not cool you are stupid).

    People who lecture others about what to eat. ( don't eat meat but I will cook meat for visitors of friends respect peoples choices).

    Quark. (ain't no one got time for that)

    People with no imagination.

    People with no magic in their lives.

    People do don't respect creative people ( I am creative ...of course)

    Manipulative people.

    I couldn't be bothered washing a plate if I know I'm going to use it again later that day. If I eat something containing sauce I'll wash the plate, but I don't see the point if all that's on it is a few breadcrumbs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,419 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    Installing a toilet in the house is a waste of time. You can use a public one most of the time and a bucket the rest. Trivial **** indeed.

    What is wrong with you?:)
    Have you just given up completely? So you don't really do anything!

    Plus, you still should hoover, carpet or not. Where do you think it goes. The floor ain't magic.

    Yeah, like, you're so like cool and free spirited.

    People with no self awareness . It is by far the most attractive traits, a person can have. Most people are terrible listeners.

    The wasters in school giving the teachers a hard time, I felt sorry for them and even more so now, they really were only hurting themselves.

    Nobody wanted to be there including myself and it was fairly opressive, but why make it harder, we'll be free in a few years time?

    I remember thinking these people are doing their jobs, can't we just leave them alone?

    I was a sort of get in there, get out there, get it done, after the novelty of 1st year wore off, which is when my grades started to drop slowly over the next 4.

    I'm actually a huge extrovert and really enthusiastically opinionated , but people got the idea in their heads that I was quiet, I just felt sensitive to other people, so acting like an rambling madman was saved for school trips and weekends with friends in private.

    Shaving. The beard/face gets done once every 1-2 weeks when I shave my head, being baldy has its pros too!


  • Posts: 53,068 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Lots of this stuff isn't trivial.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Cooking a dinner every day - easier to cook a big batch every 2-3 days and reheat

    Make-up for work, takes up valuable sleeping time in the morning

    Cleaning my bike after every long spin

    Ironing things that don't absolutely need to be ironed


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,172 ✭✭✭Ghost Buster


    Trivial shít that you don't got time for. My list is as follows:

    - Drying my hair. I couldn't be bothered. Haven't used a hair dryer in the last 2 years.
    Hair in general...
    I shaved off a fulsome head of hair for Shave or Die two years ago and have kept it shaved since. I drag a razor over it about once a week as opposed to tending to it every morning, every time it rains or is windy and getting it cut every few months.
    Baldy is besty

    Spending 3-4 hours a evening watching soaps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,119 ✭✭✭✭wp_rathead


    Having matching socks - first two i pick up is whats going on my feet (after customary sniff to make sure they are grand)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,599 ✭✭✭patmac


    Housework I mean all that hovering, ironing, dusting, etc takes ages and 6 month's later you have to do it all over again.
    Mowing the lawn what a waste, has to be done, but only when I can't see the wall, unlike my neighbour who mows his every day weather permitting.
