I was really shocked at how badly it got to me. I'm not overly concerned with age or aging as such, but it just kind of hit me all of a sudden and I felt very nostalgic and melancholy. We don't have kids either but I new from childhood that I didn't want kids. I'm 41 now and found out a few months ago that I'm in menopause so maybe that had something to do with why I felt so weird about it.

Fingers crossed for you. Someone who worked for me has a new sister, 20 year age difference, as her mum desperately wanted another child. They'd to do a few rounds of IVF which I understand was very tough, but they have their baby now.:)

Nausea. Been feeling horribly queasy the last hour or so. Either get sick or don't, stomach. Make up your mind!

The bint who undertook me this morning, couldn't go fast enough just to hard break at the red light 200 feet ahead. The same bint had a 'slow down Lucy on board' sign on her rear window.

People walking slow when I'm in a rush

@ Lexie....I use Dermalogica products also and find them brilliant but my trivial annoyance is that the salons do 20% off now and again but usually when Ive just bought my stuff...I need to buy very soon...have you any inside info from salon about any discounts happening soon?:)

Id recommend either kudosbeauty.ie or millies.ie to buy the products because they're much less than in salons. It's hard to know what salons will do discounts, it really depends on how well they're doing and if they're trying to promote facials or get rid of old stock then they'll advertise it as special offers. If you're on Facebook like all your local salons pages, they'll always have their specials up on that

It's annoying having a big house and nowhere to put things.
We live in a 4 bed, there's only two of us that live here and space is still limited.
One of the bedrooms is 'his', like a man cave, playstation Xbox tv treadmill ect
One is mine, all the wardrobes, shoes, hair stuff makeup ect
Then one is our room that's not allowed get cluttered up and
One is the room I use for work so we took the wardrobe out of there and put it in my room.

Except now I have nowhere to put my clothes. He's on my case telling me to throw them out, he has a rake of space in his wardrobe and he won't let me put clothes into his. I've been asking and asking him to get another one and he still hasn't.

So, asos have a 50% sale on today, I'm after buying stuff and now when it arrives ill have to just bring it out to my brothers house and reclaim my old room.

Life would be so much simpler if he could do what I ask him, without me having to repeat myself like a parrot for 6 months

+1 for millies too. I've never bought Dermalogica from anywhere else.

Use of the word 'space' in TV house makeover/Grand Design shows.

"This is a nice space", no ya numbskull its a nice room.

Was kinda looking forward to the four of us commuting to work on a Honda Cub - Indian family stylee.

Rums · 12-10-2014 04:08PM

Tourists who stop in the middle of clearly busy streets/ bridges in large groups to take photos leaving no room to go past them on the street/bridge.

People who don't clean up their dog poops.

People who park in cul de sac blocking entry and exit of vehicles when they don't even live there, a neighbour nearly died from a stroke because the ambulance could not get in to him due to twats parked on both side of the road in the cul de sac preventing the ambulance from getting near his house.
On other not so serious occasions they have blocked oil delivery trucks in and residents out... what is worse is sometimes the cheeky bastards are actually sitting in their cars but still will not move them to let people in and out... one woman (from Kerry originally) was told to **** off back home when she asked a man to move his car so she could get her car our of the estate.

Rubberlegs · 12-10-2014 07:28PM

People who hold up the whole main road into town, doing 60. Then on the stretch approaching the roundabout, where they are actually meant to do 60, suddenly speed up to 80. See it all the time.

Cheryl Cole, and her retarded facial expressions in her videos .

When I'm dying to let a fart so I wait until the coast is clear and then let one rip. Then out of nowhere someone comes up behind me and starts talking to me. Some people are like ninjas, ninjas I tells ya.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 12-10-2014 07:45PM

Being hassled for something despite telling someone 3 times I am unavailable today

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 13-10-2014 12:40AM

It's trivially annoying that I ruin pretty much all my clothes because I have ridiculously pointy nails that rips through my tops.
http://tinypic.com/r/2z3q3w1/8 my clothes are just full of those tiny ****ty little holes
http://tinypic.com/r/250tsg4/8 - claws not nails

OldNotWIse · 13-10-2014 09:55AM

Spending all day in college and then being delayed going home because of water protestors. Just, fúck off with your signs and let me get home. You've officially lost a supporter because you ruined my evening.

OldNotWIse · 13-10-2014 11:54AM

People who post rubbish "comments on life" quotes on their FB pages as if it gives them some kind of special status. Ooooh look at you Mr Deep, so learned and wise. Wherever did you get that chocolate-box, self-growth, American psychobabble claptrap cartoon? I think you are my hero! PS don't forget...the only disability in life is a bad attitude. oh....wait.... :pac:

osarusan · 13-10-2014 11:57AM

The expression 'hive mind' is starting to be a trivial annoyance.

eisenberg1 · 13-10-2014 12:04PM

I have a thing about newspapers, I hate if someone reads (tries to) my newspaper, before I do.
You know, when you dont get a chance to read it straight away, and you forget to hide it,
and someone grabs it, with a "I 'll just have a quick read of this if you dont mind"

"You will in your arse, and yes I do mind, it's mine!!"

Funny, thing though, if I dont have one to read, I dont mind borrowing one...........

Are you afraid they'll wear it out? :P

Now that you mention newspapers, I hate the way tabloids and general lower quality journalism papers use sensationalist, rubbish language. Yesterday I was flicking through one that my primate brother had left in the kitchen - things like "the pair were caged" (imprisoned following sentencing) and the "beast was free to roam" (the convicted rapist was allowed back into society again) - I mean, why do they need to use this language? News items, by their nature are thought provoking and moving (that's why they are news) - they don't need to be dressed up with such tripe.

Heh - things like that always remind me of the line from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein: "I was benevolent and good; misery made me a FIIEEEND!!" :pac:
