    The postman who leaves a "Sorry, I missed You" card in our door even though he never made any attempt to knock because he couldn't be bothered bringing the parcel/packet with him.

    How do I know this? He told me "Sorry, I didn't want to bring it out with me so I left it at the depot so you can pick it up when you're ready".

    People who use incorrect tags on instagram. If I'm searching for #lowcarb why am I seeing home decor, gardens, clothes hauls and stupid stuff like that?

    People who use instagram.And people complain about the stupidity of instagram users!

    My initial reaction would be to complain about him to An Post but then I would worry that he would subseuently f*ck with your mail in the future

    Not being able to go out on a mad one anymore without having to take at least the Monday and more often than not, the Tuesday off work and not feeling right again until the Thursday or Friday

    People impatiently hitting the button at traffic lights in a furious manner. It won't make the green man come any quicker.

    Two people walking together on the path coming towards you and one of them refuses to move back slightly so you can pass by. I tend to let loose with the shoulder in those situations!

    Inconsiderate people. I was in Dunnes earlier on with 2 pillows in 1 hand and a large bag of shopping in the other hand, so I was a bit of a wide load:D, the amount of people who didn't have the basic courtesy to move their trolleys or prams out of the way in the aisles is shocking. Whatever happened to good manners or even common courtesy? Some days I just feel like going on a rampage/killing spree:D(not really) well maybe just a small rampage:)

    The postman here has started to just pull up outside the house and sit in the van beeping if we ave a parcel to be delivered, no matter what size it is, he'll just sit there beeping till someone figures out which house in the estate he's beeping at.

    No, no it isn't.

    60% of Irish women are obese or overweight. It's this kind of "i'm brilliant anyway" attitude that has us living in a country of fat chicks. I'm sure i'm "body-shaming" or some other twaddle but it's not right that more than half the female population of a country is clinically classified as fat.

    I absolutely hate people, who do this. I love dogs but I respect the animal and the owner. A while back a cute dog walked over to me in the park but I asked the owner first if it's ok to touch him (touch the dog, not the owner!:p). He said yes. And then we had a chat about the above mentioned issues. I used to have a big dog and a tiny dog. The big one was the biggest sweetest fool you could meet, but she could do damage because she was so strong and clumsy. The small one was a mean bitch, who didn't really like kids. Very often I'd walk them together, they were a hilarious duo but the amount of people I had to give out to stay away from both was unbearable. My brother has a small terrier, she's very friendly but he was mightily annoyed the other day when he was stopped in the street because some woman just decided to pick her up to cuddle her! :eek:

    My friend has horses and very often gets mad because even though she has "Private property, do not enter" signs everywhere people still think it's ok to enter her property AND feed the horses. 1)The horses could harm them or their kids, 2) (and more important) They could kill the animals with the crap they feed them. Just because it's a horse it doesn't mean it eats everything you think it eats, they have health issues as well.

    People, who have no respect really piss me off.

    Some people have asked me if it's ok, and understand when I tell them she is not really into kids, but I can count them on one hand. I'd much rather have the "dont touch him, he might be viscious" ones to contend with - at least their kids stay away!

    It's not just the women in fairness, the population as a whole (both men,women and children) are getting very fat.

    But I understand what you're saying with women justifying being very heavy. Aside from anything else, they're putting their health at risk.

    Having a great sleep but waking up to a bad dream. Debate getting up or get even more sleep.

    Finally chose to get up and get breakfast. Just had a Tshirt and underwear on wandering round the house when my housemate came home for lunch. Awkward.

    Parents nagging at you about wishing for grandchildren. Dad, get it on eBay or something and leave me alone :mad:

    Needless to say, he's not pleased with my attitude... :pac:

    He doesn't have to do the physical heavy-sledging associated therewith, such as carting around an extra 50% of your bodyweight for three-quarters of a year and then doing the equivalent of shítting a football at the end of it. Tell him that "giving him an heir" malarkey went out with the Flood unless your name is Windsor. :D

    I was in a coffee shop earlier, waiting to give my order, when an American male barged past me, and stood at the till, cos, I was, of course, invisible.
    The girl working there was having none of it. She said to him, 'this lady is first', and took my order.
    Fair play. Twas one of those situations where I wasn't going to bother, cos if he was that rude, in the first place, what's the point?
    He is probably 'doing Ireland', so was rushing to get his garishly dressed butt back on the bus to get to Kerry, Galway, and back to Dublin. Job done.

    I did. So far he has a fighter fish. I think he'll kill it with love because he overfeeds it so much. I love him but he does my head in sometimes. I was asked a few months back if I have a life partner. A LIFE PARTNER. Not even a boyfriend.

    And my dearest stepdad was horrified at the idea of me not wanting a big wedding because of course he wants to throw a big party. He already has gallons of homemade spirit saved for it, and there will be beer flowing and piglets will be roasted etc., how could I do that to him!?!?!?

    I'm a terrible terrible child...:pac:

    I fear the day when they'll overcome their differences and team up against me.

    People on facebook commenting about the Israel-Palestine conflict. I'm pretty sure 99% of them got all their knowledge on it from the film "You don't mess with the Zohan" because they have to be the most uninformed dolts I've ever come across.

    Why can't people just call a spade a spade? I came across a facebook relationship status today where someone described themselves as being in
    'a domestic partnership' wtf:confused: What's wrong with saying you live together? It just gives the impression that the guy has his head so far up his own arse that he's gotten lost.

    I did complain semi-anonymously via the social medias for that very reason. They refused to consider my complaint unless I gave them a real name and address.
