    Women being disorganised at the front of the shopping queue. Fair enough if they have babbies with them; not so if they still get flummoxed doing something they've done every week for X number of years...

    I have an utterly useless and infuriating knack for picking the queue behind people who seem genuinely surprised when they have to pay for their stuff.

    On a related note: what the hell do some women be doing that it takes them ten minutes after they've actually sat into their car to get moving? Get in, bag on floor, belt on, start car, move off. I've given up waiting on parking spots because of the faffing, parked my car elsewhere, and seen some women only pulling out by the time I'm walking past :confused:

    The one I was looking at was something about a time shift.....I reckon some Dr Who nerd just put that in for sh*ts and giggles.

    There's an overpowering stench of Mr Muscle oven cleaner coming from the kitchen, even with the back door and kitchen windows open. The Belling oven we bought a couple of years ago is a total piece of s*it, don't buy one based on the reputation a company used to have, the quality just isn't there anymore. As for fan oven, huh, fan oven my aunt fanny, the bloody thing cooks too fast on one side of a dish and not fast enough on the other side. It also gets manky very fast for some reason:mad:

    On a semi-related note -


    People playing musical chairs on trains. Sit down ffs, we're about to pull off! :mad:


    And the luggage, ohh jesus, the luggage. See that thing above your head that looks suspiciously like a luggage rack? Yeahhh, that's exactly what it is!


    And just now the old dear beside me asked me could I swap seats because "the train is moving the wrong way".

    The train is moving, the wrong way...


    Yes dear, and the sun revolves around the earth :(

    That, and those who quote things out of context to cause trouble. There is one person I have in mind, to whom I express no opinions, despite their fishing, because I know it will be trotted out, elsewhere, and designed to cause trouble.

    Unfortunately there are a lot of people who are like that.

    Got home from a 9 hour shift at work today to find a group of cyclists, complete with van sitting out in front of my house in my parking space and the one beside it. I had to park sort of awkwardly jutting a bit out on the road and walk through them to get to my front door.

    I was going to say nothing to them but they were still there after half an hour of seeing me go into my house and one of them decided to sit with a cooler of food and drinks on my front lawn so that tipped me over the edge.

    I went out and asked them how the **** they decided the front of my house was a picnic area and the head Dub (inevitable, he needed the cycle as well because he had a monumental beer belly) said "shure we didn't know it was your house and it was just where we stopped and it's near the shop" to which i replied "well it's obviously someones house. why not stop in front of the shop instead of someones houses? what normal person would think that's ok?" (they where taking up my neighbors parking space as well at this stage)

    He got shirty at this stage and said "what's the problem, we're only stopped here for a while?" to which i replied "do you not think it's a bit ****ing ignorant to just set yourselves up in front of someones house to have snacks and then act the **** when they say something to you about hanging around in front of their property?".

    All i got in reply was some mumbling so i just went back inside after calling them all ignorant dickheads.

    I wouldn't have minded at all if i had have been in the house at the time they arrived and had the manners to asked but sure they were the amazing Dublin people down the country to grace us with their knacker presence to do a bit of cycling so i was the asshole for questioning them breaking the simplest of social conventions.

    I had a sledge hammer out the back of the house and i was genuinely considering going out and just smashing the **** out of whatever bikes i could get near but then i'd be the one in trouble then :mad:

    Haven't been that genuinely angry in a long time. I do a bit of cycling myself but i'm not one of the spandex wearing, cycle-in-the-middle-of-the-road-three-abreast douche-bags like this crowd were.

    Going out of their way to be assholes in pretty much every way imaginable and they didn't realize how close they were to having their twatty €1500 fashion accessory road-bikes wrecked.

    There's no cameras or anything to tie me to it down here so i would have ****ed up every single one of their bikes if i wasn't outnumbered 12 to 1.

    When my son throws a tantrum in public, I like to be a responsible parent by taking him to one side away from other people and putting him in time out till he calms down and we can talk about what he did wrong. All well and good until someone, usually an old biddy, comes up and goes "Oh what's the matter, wont you daddy get you something? Oh you poor wee one."

    Great, now you have reinforced my son's opinion that I am being unreasonable and as a result you have extended his tantrum.

    You know those times when you're driving and you get stuck at every single red light? I don't mean just a couple of them in a row, I mean that it goes beyond a joke and it's like ten red lights in a row, and you get so mad you want to smash someone's face in, you want someone to blame, you want to smash something with a hammer over and over again so that it screams in pain.... how dare those lights keep going red on me!! Why meee??????!!!!!!!! And you wonder who's to blame, and then of course you realise that this is all just an unfortunate coincidence - that nobody is to blame - and that just makes it ten times worse because you've nowhere to direct your anger, and you're just left drowning in a pit of angry confusion/frustration.

    And then you arrive at your destination.

    :pac:

    Except it's not an unfortunate coincidence at all. They're on a timed sequence, so if you're driving at a particular time, you're at mercy to whatever time sequence is at play :P

    When your bedroom door is slightly open and caught in a draft so keeps on banging off the frame but doesn't actually close.
    Each time I swear to myself ''okay if it happens one more time I'll get up and close it'' but never manage to tear myself from the comfort of my bed.
    Low and behold an hour has passed and it's time to get up.
    Gah!
