TV's in bedrooms, specifically on the other side of our bedroom wall. The next door nightmares bedroom is on the other side of our bedroom and from time to time she'll blast the volume for hours. This pisses me off as for about 3 hours or so, Monday through Wednesday nights we've to put up with their lodgers upstairs TV on really loud. We can just mute ours and listen word for word to his. Anyways, they've just had a guy run a Sky connection into their bedroom ffs. Now she'll be fricking worse. I acutally look forward to Thursdays so we don't have to listen to an upstairs TV in there. Sick of it.:mad:

You poor thing! Your neighbour sounds like an absolute arsehole. We lived beside a woman who used to tell her son to blast his stereo, and when her son would ask "what about the neighbours" she would say "**** them" She would also have parties all night every weekend so I feel your pain. Luckily we moved away.

Convincing someone to give me a shoulder massage but its a terrible massage, if you're going to do something put a little bit of effort into it, cost me half a bag of buttons as well, tragic.

Those toothpaste tubes of cheese-like substances were very popular in Canada at one time.

Very popular in England too, also very handy for hiding a cat pill in, especially the cheese and ham tubes.

I hear this. It's either monkey-metal or brittle plastic that breaks when you look at it, or somewhat better stuff with some gowl's name on it ("Carolyn Donnelly Eclectic!" is de rigeur in our local one) that's about twice overpriced. I hate Dunnes!! :mad:

I've found a nice Denby one that'll last for ever, feels solid enough to double up as a weapon too.:D

The resealable tabs on bags of pasta etc, that are clearly not resealable, and pop off the second you reseal the bag. Does my head in.

Is that some sort of game for grown ups?:D

Ritter Sport is a German chocolate brand. They have all sorts of types and I find the chocolate quite delicious.

I grew up eating German/Swiss chocolate so I generally don't like Cadbury as I find it awfully sweet. Too sweet. But I take that over any American crap that they have the cheek to label as chocolate any day!

Blisters. I doubled my route yesterday from 2 to 4 miles, now I've got a nice blister on the ball of my foot. Still have 4 miles to do later. Also, fricking hoardes of teenagers that take up the footpaths. Jesus, I end up walking on the road to get past them, they're too ignorant to let a woman pass them on the footpath. I don't do the walking on Friday or Saturdays, it isn't worth it with all the fricking teens wandering in flocks/herds.

The Compeed thingies are good for blisters.

Yeah, they're great for heels but won't stick to the sole of my foot. A month ago I put one on the sole while wearing sandals. I was only out for 10 minutes and when I got back it had fallen out somewhere.:D I got some marathon socks today, so hopefully they'll help. In fairness I wasn't sure how well the walking was going to go so I only bought cheap trainers and jogging pants. I'll get better quality stuff as I go along.

czechlin · 17-09-2014 07:35PM

I must be the only person on the planet, who still prefers to go to human cashiers rather than the self service scanning machines in supermarkets. However, I was forced to use one today. Argh, the stupid thing got stuck on item 5 and kept talking about a bag in the bagging area, which didn't bother it before.
You computerised prick!!! You're so lucky they didn't sell sledgehammers!!!

I hate them, my husband almost goes into a meltdown of annoyance if we ever use one. Unexpected item in bagging area, yeah, it's a bag, what's unexpected about that? Want to buy alcohol? Forget it, unless you wait for someone to come and put in an authorisation code for it.

CrowdedHouse · 17-09-2014 07:54PM

and when you press 'I brought my own bag' someone has to put in a code - they are great for getting rid of loose change though

Not anymore. There's a slot now that makes it difficult to empty a jar a coppers into it. Still somehow manages to give me my change in the smallest amounts possible.

There is a volume button on the bottom of the screen that will shut her up on them self service checkouts.

Just after having pizza for dinner & after burning the top of my mouth.

True but I'm stubborn and delay and annoy myself and everyone else

When you drop a blueberry into your cleavage. Dammit :mad: It's a purple disaster trying to fish that out. Thank goodness it was a black bra and a black top :pac:

Better yet .... you shower, put on a clean top while getting dressed up, date shows up, nice restaurant, your meal comes and you promptly spill food on your boobs.

Breaking in new trainers. I looked like a right special case running along in them

:D

People eating bags of crisps.

Hope they choke on the the crisps and I mean it.

Vomit inducing shyte.

So slowly, crinkle crinkle crinkle, with the packet. So annoying.

That's how I originally hooked up with my OH. :eek: Except it was ice, not a blueberry.

The innuendos flying between Alan Hughes and Edward Hayden on TV3, it's bloody annoying, cringe worthy, but hilarious at the same time... I'm conflicted :pac:

There's a girrl in our local Tesco, she's a complete airhead and always chewing gum and being rude in general. She's a really big girl, I'd say at least 18 stone. She has really bad hair extensions and fake tan that looks like muck, her eyebrows are put on with what looks like permanent marker and she has those big hoopy earrings.

Last night my husband tells me he finds her really sexy. This morning he backtracked and said he called her mildly attractive, but he definitely said 'really sexy'.

Christ :mad: I think it only annoyed me because I'm joining unislim to lose weight and look more attractive, when he finds someone like that attractive!!

I think that's kinda heart-warming. Fat people need love too.
