    The ABUSE I got back, Jesus. She called me old.

    I'm snappin because now I'm raging with myself for engaging her, I'm raging I didn't just delete her when she started flashing herself. And I feel sad that she thinks I'm old. I'm 12 years older than her. Twelve.

    You're more suited for this forum.

    Drive three and a half hours peacefully from Manchester to London, have two near misses due to people doing stupid **** like swerving across two lanes of traffic to get to a petrol station within 15 minutes of our house. :mad:

    On the top of the 75 bus towards Tallaght at around 7.55am, the girl going on about having to shower....prepare for the coming day...blablabla......boring sh:t .pretty audible to somebody sitting at the front too.
    But then for this situation there's always my HTC smartphone to watch youtube on.

    I got up late for work this morning. First time in years. Phone never went off. I knew I'd changed something when I was setting it last night. Lept out of the sack at 7.33....was driving out of the garage at 7.38.
    'don't worry' says herself...'I'll take the dogs out'
    'very sporting of you' says I. Did she think I was going to take them on their morning jaunt even though I was nearly half an hour late?

    "Hi, Can you do this thing for me?"
    "Sure, but I'm really busy right now. I might get to it tomorrow."
    "But, I need it done today."
    "Sorry, no can do. I've got deadlines."
    "So, do yo think you'll be able to do it today?"
    "Err, no. You're not listening, I can't do it today."
    "But this is really important and I need it done today."
    "Okay, why not speak to my project manager? If they say it is Okay then I'll do it today."
    "Can't you speak to them?"
    "No, because it's not my problem."


    "..........but I really need this done today."

    Friday, just getting to the car which had one space beside it and then a white van.
    Some ****ing spastic was parking his in between the two. You could have docked the US army's fleet of aircraft carriers in the space that was all around but no, he likes to park it cosy and stuck it in there good and tight Thankfully the drivers door was free and I was on my own but the fcuking matchstick man himself wouldn't have squeezed in on the passenger side.

    I had something similar in the Omni car park last weekend. Arrive back to my perfectly parked car and some t*t in a massive american SUV type thing was tight up against the passanger side of my car.
    The temptation was strong to leave Mrs Bap stranded in the car park, but the urge to write a note saying 'You park like a f*cking assh0le' was stronger, so I done that instead.

    I hate when you're at the til in Spar, and you ask for a bag. And the shop assistant just hands you one or puts it on the counter (sometimes they will even open it first). It's like....'yeah, now would you mind bagging the items please!?!'

    These workers are not paid enough to do something that you can just as easily do for yourself.

    BTW Vag, i'm curious about how to pronounce your username
    does it rhyme with Drag or Madge

    Why, why why do people do this!

    I was in a supermarket car park a while back, with tons of free spaces.
    Not alone does some tool squeeze their car in beside mine, instead of any of the ten spaces on either side, but they were across the f*cking line, just to add insult to injury.

    People who finish paying for stuff in the shop, but feel the need to stand in the way of the till while they finish their conversation with the shopkeeper. Have a conversation all you want, but do you really, really need to stand in the way of everyone else to do it? Is the conversation not as stimulating if it's not inconveniencing a line of people?

    One of lifes great mysteries. There were free spaces to my left, one free space to my right, then the van.
    This clutz squeezed in when there were was easily a hundred free spaces in pretty much every direction. A fcuking moron wouldn't have parked there.
    I should have taken a photo just to better convey the absurdity of it.

    Same in my case, there were loads of free spaces, it's a very big car park, and it's generally quiet. I wasn't parked near the shop door or in any place that was so much better than the other fairly empty rows. I just don't understand it.

    I'd say you just have a very good looking car!

    When someone sends a PM and then tells that person to check their messages because they sent a PM. Forums or on Facebook, you don't need a reminder that you have a PM

    People who immediately dismiss any link to Wikipedia, as if it's the one site on the internet not run by esteemed experts who have taken vows of obedience to the truth.

    Idiots who think they are doing you a favour. Last night a female cyclist, an aul wan' cycling on the footpath says 'ah you're ok', meaning I wasn't in her way:confused: I so wanted to let rip at her but was really wound up and didn't trust myself not to go postal on her. Then today in Lidl, another aul wan in front of me in the queue, didn't put the divider in between items, anyway as I put my basket up to unpack my stuff onto the belt she says, 'ah you're grand', again as if her doing something wrong is ok and I should somehow be grateful in someway:mad::eek::confused:

    Why do cashiers always as you if you want cash back when you pay with a laser card?

    Surely if someone wants cash back they would ask for it.

    The 'Do you want cash back? - No Thanks' exchange is probably adding an extra 2-3 seconds to every laser card transaction taking place in the Country and we could be losing dozens of working days every year between us all.


    It needs to stop!

    I pride myself on not being slushy/romantic, allergic to displays of affection etc. I'm trivially annoyed with myself that I really, really like Ed Sheeran's new song. In fact I seem to feel a little tear welling everytime I hear it, or see the video. WTF?!!

    People coming towards you on the path, two maybe three abreast (usually a group of friends) and who wont move to let you pass. They'd rather you step off the path and out into traffic than step aside a little bit. I've practically shouldered a few people recently standing my ground and not being bullied out onto the road.
    A small bit of consideration isnt too much to ask is it?

    I never move when I see this rudeness. I pretend I'm Richard Ashcroft in the music video for Bittersweet Symphomy. Those b*tches can move for me!

    Also, while on the subject of pedestrian etiquette, I have to say something about women with buggies who barge on through unapologetically and then glare angrily at me if I don't move quickly enough. A woman actually collided with me once, coming around the corner. Had another woman bash her buggy into the backs of my legs because I didn't move out of her way in Penney's. I genuinely didn't hear her behind me!
