    Want to know the secret to the NCT test? I seen some legends doing this the last time I was there.

    Stop at the McDonalds drive thru on the way, dine in squalor at the NCT waiting area. Everyone, and I mean everyone will go through a range of emotions looking at you. Mostly jealousy.
    They dont know wether to yo-yo to the window to see thier car or try guess what you are going to pull out of your Mickey D's bag next.

    My TA is that I didn't come up with this.

    That is... so beautiful. <sniff>.

    Heh, I'm sniggering to myself as I've seen a few TA's that are things that I do :).

    My TA, everything is distracting me today, I'm a woman on the edge . Windscreen wipers too loud, radio too loud, traffic mental . I had taped One Million Dubliners ages ago, and watched it this morning when I eventually had time. Brilliant , but I remembered the lovely historian who did the tours at Glasnevin, had died, and I'm in bits since. TA'd that I let stuff like that get to me. And really TA'd that I didn't take the tour a few years back, as I had planned.

    It's quite annoying that there isn't something around that you could try different things out as a trial run. My friend wants me to let her make me blonde but I don't know if blonde hair would even suit me and I'm so annoyed that I can't look into the future see myself that colour and then make a decision

    SOAFB. Unnecessary sign language on programmes. I recorded something on BBC 4 and when I sat down to watch it, low and behold there's some fella in the corner signing. FFS, there are options available to have subtitles for the deaf on most channels. It fcuking ruined it and I deleted the damn thing after a minute since the signing is too distracting.

    Noisey eaters. People who sound like they're inhaling their food. Over the chatter, the noise of the train and the guy next to me sniffling, I can STILL hear your wan smacking her lips, sucking the juice from the orange shes trying to inhale, and then chomping on it, Jesus Christ. Now she's picking at her teeth with her fingers. Disgusting excuse for a human being. Save for the chomping, the way she's carrying on with that Orange id give her oral skills an A.

    Why do people eat on public transport?

    Lexie are you sure it wasn't a grapefruit ? :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,646 ✭✭✭✭qo2cj1dsne8y4k


    I read on the stars problem page yesterday where someone's boyfriend had two accidents in the space of a few weeks, one with the suction of a Hoover and one with some fruit from a fruit salad. I was wondering if it was a grapefruit too!!

    Ugh - someone was killed on the train line this evening, all the trains are backed up. Of course there's an aul one going around complaining about the delay (hello, someone died) and also seems fascinated wondering if it was suicide, sure it must have been suicide, sure they'd never get the whole lot of you after you were hit with a train. Oh right. That's a nice image. Nice respect for the family the train driver and the deceased too. The blue rinse brigade love a good tragedy

    So irritating!! That happens to me all the time and I always delete it, it's so distracting. Subtitles would surely the better solution here.

    Friday night and not one decent thing in TV. Over 100 channels and nothing worth watching. :(

    I wonder will they have to rename the Bord Gais Energy Theatre now in line with this?! As it is, a theatre being called the Bord Gais Energy Theatre is a TA for me!

    People get far too excited when they're in the NCT centre. Up and down looking out the window to see where their car is, giving constant updates to whoever's with them, reading out where their car is from the screen, repeating "please god it'll pass now" to whoever makes eye contact.

    I might also be slightly TA that my car didn't pass....but mainly cos of the idiots in the waiting room!

    Was getting my car NCT'd in the Tullamore branch some years back and half ear-wigging to a guy giving out to the guy who failed his car, he points to another car and says "My car failed on (didn't hear) and that fookin car has the steering wheel on the wrong fookin side, which is more of a hazard?

    Have they? I remember I was sorting out a gas connection for a gaff some time last year and I'd to call Gas Networks Ireland to get connected to the grid?

    I also got a text this morning from Three, apparently O2 customers will be joining "me" soon. Just what an already oversubscribed network needs - more subscriptions. The first time I got a 4G phone last year the network speed was ridiculously fast, 50Mb/s. Now it's usually around 20Mb/s, still quite fast, but a fair step down!

    Mmm. Hutchinson Telecom joining Telefonica, infrastructure-wise. Theoretically it should work well, but this is Ireland... :)

    Waiting for the water from the hot tap to heat up as I'm too precious to put my hands under the freezing cold water to wash my mitts.

    Or when the hot water becomes far too hot and you still have soapy hands.

    Yes, this too!

    Or you run out of liquid soap and you open up the bottle/dispenser and put just a tiny drop of water in it to get the last bit of soap stuck at the bottom but it comes out too watery!

    Girls attacking another girls appearance. If you're going to start that ****, you'd expect that girl to be an absolute model right? I bet if sue Ryder sold people, this is the girl you'd find left at the back. She's like the heel of a loaf. Everyone touches it but nobody wants it, exactly like her. If I had willies growing in a field I wouldn't let this one look over the ditch at them. And yet - there she is, criticising, judging, being sly and nasty. Who CARES what other people look like? Concentrate on yourself like a good chungwan
