I used to work in a newsagents and Lidl but it still bugs me more than it should when I'm shopping and I see people abandon items in a different section of shelves, like a carton of orange juice just fúcked in between the pack of biscuits or bread left at the fridge with milk.

I do that sometimes. Once I got a hot cooked chicken from the rotisserie counter, then as I continued with my shopping I changed my mind about the chicken. (can't remember why.) I didn't want to give it back to the rotisserie counter as I would have felt silly changing my mind after getting them to bag it up. I also didn't know if they would accept hot food back. So I walked down the deserted crisps aisle and hid the chicken amongst the crisps.

It's not very nice for the child though, having a very unusual or silly name. If the parents like a ridiculous name so much, they should change their own name instead. My parents gave me a Gaelic name that, living in England, nobody here had heard of or could pronounce and it was embarrassing.

Liars and stupid people who park too close to me and bang their doors on my car. Then they walk away as if nothing's happened!

People who don't cover their mouths when they yawn, I don't need to see inside your mouth.

People who continue to speak during the yawn they fail to cover with a hand. They are just too busy too either stop talking while yawning, or raise a hand to cover their mouth.
Far too busy, and it's just exhausting for them.

Tony EH · 09-12-2014 08:16PM

Bad and ignorant drivers (our roads are full of these dickheads).

There, literally isn't a day that goes by when I don't see some fool take a very serious risk on my commute to work. Not one.

Cig butts. They're everywhere. Disgusting.

I was talking with a few smokers the other night and the subject of "scumbags littering" came up. The fag break ended and every one of them threw their fag butt on the ground. :rolleyes:

Adrian J Lynch · 10-12-2014 06:28PM

People who burp out load

Stinginess.

People that don't say hi back on corridors, i'd forgive shyness but some people look you in the eye as if you called them a dickhead

slurping of Tea

bad manners

not saying thanks

Leaving instant coffee granules in the sugar bowl...thanks that will go nicely with my tae :mad:

The Adversary · 10-12-2014 08:11PM

When you're talking to someone, usually after they ask you for help and mid conversation their attention just drifts to something or someone else.

simonsays1 · 10-12-2014 08:58PM

Food waste
Yawning while making a horrid yawny noise.goes right through me
Talking&eating & not covering gob with hand!!

miezekatze · 10-12-2014 09:04PM

People who whistle, so irritating!

People who spit on the footpath.

I can't stand food abandoners in supermarkets either, but I only mind if it causes the food to go bad. If someone changes their mind about stuff that needs to be chilled or frozen then at least leave it in a fridge or freezer.

People who hug the handrails on the luas when it's busy so they can read their book or play with their phone, and other people are left with nowhere to hold on to.

helluvalife · 10-12-2014 09:23PM

People who have a problem with Americanisms but just use british words instead.

pragmatic1 · 10-12-2014 10:07PM

People that have no concept of personal space. The type that parks their mug inches away from you when talking.

Nosey people. Something very insecure about people that preoccupy themselves with other peoples lives.

Controlling people. Similar to nosey people but more virulent.

bigar · 10-12-2014 10:28PM

- Noisy heels, can can people walk with all that noise constantly?
- people who are slow at tills, use both your hands please and have your purse ready to pay

Flutterby80 · 10-12-2014 10:50PM

Drivers who don't salute you when you let them pull out in front of you in traffic, also people who don't know how to indicate on a roundabout.
People who stand too close to you in a queue, nudging me won't make the queue move any faster.
Cyclists who ride side by side having a chat on narrow roads even though there's a traffic build up behind them.
Women who Hover over toilet seats and pee all over them, you are the reason no one wants to sit and empty their bladders properly!

Aongus Von Bismarck · 10-12-2014 10:56PM

Some of the people I was with in college during my undergraduate are on Facebook. Still espousing ridiculous socialist ideologies. Solidarity for Cuba, burn the bondholders, the failures of Capitalism. All of them living in Ireland, of the last true social democracies in the world. I've been to Cuba. Wonderful people, but the utter inhumanity of the political ideology they live under is plain to see. A living hell.

I remain friends with them out of morbid curiosity. It's no wonder that many of them were the pass and 2:2 portion of the class.

apaynea · 12-12-2014 06:56AM

People who eat with their mouth open.

People who grow up in a working class background, end up with a good career and love to look down on others. (I just think they should know better)

Wannabe snobs. (Don't actually have the lifestyle but still believe they are on such a different level to others)

My cat hates when we go to the vet and he gets out the thermometer...am I doing this wrong?

zcorpian88 · 14-12-2014 04:23AM

People that gather in a large circles on the footpath and chat away not minding oncoming pedestrains that might want to use the footpath also and have to walk on the road risking injury from traffic. Happened me today while out Christmas shopping,

Feckin hipster teenagers are more prone to doing it than anyone else, they seem to want to gather in circles on narrow footpaths to hug each other and discuss how "toooootally A-mazing" their lives are while half the town wanders into traffic because they won't get the f**k out of the way or move in a bit. Little b******s!

ratmouse · 14-12-2014 04:51AM

Selflies. Get over yourselves people.

Dr. Zaius Dr. Zaius! · 14-12-2014 05:13AM

People with no "indoor voice". They just have the one setting, LOUD, and thats it. Why must you roar at the top of your lungs all the the time! Read the room!!

Or on the other end..

Sitting in class, listening to teacher/lecturer and two people who decide they dont want to listen are talking to eachother. So what you have then is a low annoying monotone murmur for background noise because you cant actually hear what they are saying! Shaddap!!

J Mysterio · 14-12-2014 07:17AM

Super rich celebrities advertising/ promoting various products - why?! Stop selling out, do you not have enough money? Padraig Harrinton, Flora.

Cyclists on footpaths

Pedestrians not looking in at drivers as they approach/ walk over pedestrian crossings - almost as if they are daring you to knock them down. Just have a feckin look to see if the driver has/ will react.

Bad manners - yes please, thank you. Not saying hello, returning a wave.

Tribalism - obnoxious locals in pubs.

Most reality TV (Kardashians, Geordie Shore)

Telemarketers.

Optimalprimerib · 14-12-2014 07:34AM

The mispronunciation of cork on the radio. Its caahrk not quirk.

rush hour on the m50, why do so many idiots drive to work instead of using the public transport. I would be home an hour ago if these idiots were not clogging up the lanes.

Then it hits me.....

Parents who won't control their kids just because the parents are just too fcukin lazy and new age and like to let the little runts express themselves

Also the same parents explaining their kids bad behaviour on ADHD or some other makie uppie nonsense, your kids don't have ADHD, they're just bold little bastards with bad parents

People who feel the need to judge other people and their children when they haven't got a clue what's going on.

The next time you feel the need to judge parents like me, take a second and think!! I have a gorgeous little boy, on the outside he looks perfectly 'normal' but on the inside he's dealing with the after effects of a horrific traumatic early birth. These issues can lead him to have uncontrolled outbursts etc. The amount of times I've had people stare at my son, point, and then feel the need to tell me what a **** job I'm doing is beyond a joke.

Perhaps if my son had a more recognizable disability or moved to using a wheelchair much quicker than needed that would make you feel better. Or I could get him use to wearing a sign to explain his medical issues that have been labelled with one of those makey upey ADHD/ADD illnesses??

Unfortunately we have to rely on the people who caused his issues to resolve them.

In the meantime we'll continue on, explaining to him that its rude to stare at others, and he shouldn't be ashamed of who he is or what he does all because it offends those who seemingly know better...

zcorpian88 · 15-12-2014 04:00PM

People that can't organize stuff to do with their time off!/Or not stick to their plans.

My parents are a good example of this, they spend a ridiculous amount of time whinging about their jobs and never do much on their days off, the rare occurence has happened this week where they are both on a weeks holidays and they are just hanging around the house doing f**k all. My dad in particular will waffle the night before drinking a can or two of Guinness about bringing the mother christmas shopping in Waterford, he'll get her hopes up and then the next day he won't be in the mood and not go.

People that don't stick to their plans just annoys me!
