    Psychotic last minute shoppers. I was rammed with a trolley this morning by an old lady, rammed in the bum to push me forward out of her way, I wasn't in the way, I was moving in an orderly fashion through Supervalu picking up 2 bottles of prosecco and brie, and then she rammed me. I turned around and said "Ho ho ho to you too", thought I was being very droll and she said "Shove it up your arse", something she was clearly trying to do.
    Scarred I am. I may have had to go home and have a coffee with Baileys cream in it for the shock, and 1 or 2 more because the first one just didn't quite cut it.

    The fridge is so full of food that the door needs a shove to close properly and my husband keeps forgetting.

    Charity bag packers today. Girl tosses a bottle of wine on top of the bread - flattens bread. " it's fine" I say "I'd rather pack my own". She stomps off in a hissey fit.

    It TA's me that my handwriting has gone to the dogs. I blame it on texting etc. , as I rarely need to actually write anymore. So when I have to send the odd note into the school, or write Christmas cards, it's like I have no control over the pen. The result is what looks like I have written it lefthanded and drunk :'(

    Tell me about it! My handwriting was never good - as a result of being left handed but forced to write with my right. But now, because I rarely use a pen for anything other than filling in crosswords, it has gone to the dogs. I'm actually embarrassed by it at this stage.

    Modern technology is great , but has a lot to answer for at times. I remember my Dad had lovely writing, and was very proud of it. People of his generation had writing that was very similar, I assume it is how they were taught to write. I am lucky now if I can read my own shopping lists these days .

    TA of the day for me. People who don't comprehend the concept of a Trivial Annoyance.

    Also, how will a company fix issues if people don't tell them what the annoying issues are? These companies are loosing money hand over fist - ultimately our money. They need to see the annoyance they cause and the reason people drift away from using their services. It's a TA that so many give out but rarely actually complain directly to the companies involved.

    After a 5 hour shop spree in Portlaoise on Sunday with O.H sore feet, bored senseless over to McD's for a coffee n burger throw 4 milks into the coffee quick stir, little sip burnt the tongue, exactly what bloody temperature do they have the machine set at, SCALD? everyone knows water shouldn't be boiled for coffee, (this is what's making Ro Keating open a coffee shop here, or so it said in Hearld at weekend),

    I actually think that we are right and everybody else is wrong:DWe would be happy little campers if everyone else copped on and used their brains in normal everyday situations rather than acting the maggot:mad: When I read Scrameens post about the woman in the supermarket today i was heading out the door so couldnt comment but its been bugging me all day and I wasnt even there..I mean that really makes you wonder about how some peoples brains are wired:confused:

    Oh dear Lord! God forbid! What would give us cause for trivial annoyances if that happened?

    Don't loose the run of yourself. ;)

    I got a rake of tips in work today. I'm going to drop some of it in a trolley in tesco and hopefully someone who needs it will find it. It's bugging me though that someone I don't like might come And find it. I should have done it where I don't know anybody

    TA: work!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    I haven't heard the speech but Sky news have a headline 'Was Cameron's speech to Christian?'. Eh, can I just say what the absolute fcuk:confused: It's Christmas eve, a 'Christian' time of year. I'm not religious but what other kind of speech do they want him to make:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭Rubberlegs


    Ooh, it's like a ghost town here today !! My TA right now is I must look like a miserable bitch most of the time. That's judging by how many times I have been told to smile by my daughter today. I'm smiling on the inside, just distractedl on the outside!

    Another thing that bugs me is how Henry V111, did away with wives because they didn't give him a son. Clearly, it was his fault as the man decides the sex of the child!!
    Hehe , I cooked dinner for everyone today, and nobody else wanted the sparkly wine, so I had to drink it all.

    Merry Christmas ��!!!!

    Our neighbours are having a massive row really loudly but not quite loud enough for us to hear what they're saying. We want to share the drama!

    My husband and I rarely fight - we need to get our excitement from somewhere :D

    We may or may not have paused Home Alone and done this. We have no shame! It was a humdinger :D

    Then it woke up the baby and I was proper annoyed - not just trivially!
