    Pushy people. I'm with O2. They've got riding people down to such an art, I bet they have lab rats to practice on first. So, I found that I can get much better deal with 3. Rang them up, they sound super good. 20 euro a month for a rake of minutes/texts and unlimited data. Now, bear in mind I only called up to get idea of plans. Next thing he's asking me for my direct debit details. I explain I don't have it to hand, and I'll call back. Do you think that was good enough?? No. Telling me that he'd wait on the phone until I went and found the details, then he suggested I log onto online banking from another device to get the info needed. I said I couldn't get it right that minute, and he said he'd call me back after 5. Then he said he'd call back in 30 minutes as that would give me time to get the details.

    What the actual ****? Where's the Fire? Why so pushy?
    When he finally did call back I was in the middle of watching a video, so ended the call and he rang back straight away. So annoying. Seriously put me off leaving O2 as well.


    Then checking my email, was browsing on asos earlier, added stuff to my shopping bag to get on payday, then asos sent me a promotion email "don't forget about me" and a clip of something from my bag.

    Calm down with the pressure everybody

    When I do something wrong and can't blame anyone else.

    E.g. have to spend time going to pick up my phone because I left it somewhere last night. I'm angry but have no one to blame!!!!!

    I hate that.
    "Did you forget something in your basket?"
    Eh, are you giving it away for free??

    Skangers in A&E.

    I was there a few nights ago with my mother and there was this girl who had "collapsed" on the floor in the waiting room.
    I told the receptionist and she said "It's alright, we know. She's been doing this all evening."

    The traige nurse then came out and insisted she stand up. The girl was drunk and was screaming she wanted to be seen to.
    She was seen to in triage, and left the room looking pretty sober to me, so the collapse was obviously a ploy to get seen to quicker.

    Then you've the usual people moaning about waiting ages and "how long will I be waiting?/They went in before me!".

    Oh sorry that that woman with the heart attack got seen to before you. How inconvenient for you.

    I was rear ended on the bike on Thursday evening on my home from work (I wasn't at fault, the other fúcking cúnt was) but I actually nearly went into even more shock by how quickly I was seen in Waterford Regional and in an actual designated treatment cubicle. I arrived at around 6:30pm and was walking (thankfully) out of the hospital at 9:30pm. :eek::eek:
    Nothing broken but my back is absolutely and utterly fúcked in the worst way possible.

    The last time someone hit me on the bike (again, the other fúcker's fault), 3 years ago, I had broken bones, arrived in at around 6pm and was left lying on a trolley in a corridor until nearly 10pm before I was even brought to x-ray and then I was left lying around again until 3am when I was brought up to an all male ward and they were all burping and farting and walking around with their willies hanging out of their robes.

    Todays TA; thanks/like whores. People who constantly put up selfies of themselves and then revel on the likes and comments. The same goes for grief/death like fishing. Its madness that people need to share every lIttle detail of their lives for the sake of a few facebook likes


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


    Awake on and off since 4 this morning. I dreamt the IRA were after me and my youngest, trying to shoot us. It was actually John Boy out of Love/Hate. Terrified I was!!
    Up after 7 then, put on cartoons for little one, and my head kept nodding. So every time it did, she was hungry / needed the toilet/ wanted me to change channel/ freaking out when ads came on.
    I saw a cushion in Tesco that actually said "You is proper fit " on it. The rage! Do people really buy this kind of crap??
    Scarily friendly over talkative girl on the checkout. F*ck off I'm tired :(
    I drove home in thick fog this evening, and at least 3 dipsticks with not a single light on. Oh sweet suffering Jesus!

    I dreamt I was in school doing my leaving cert and that jimgoose and eisy were in my class. Then when I went to some boys house, for a house party, there was a swimming pool out the back that was filthy, and jimgoose was dismembered in it, turned black and all. Very strange.

    It's hillarious reading the comments under selfies. All the 'gorgeous hun' ****e and all I can think is 'are these people looking at the same photo as me? I don't think so.:D This is especially true of single middle-aged women.

    No disrespect to you because that was an insightful view into your subconscious.

    BUT WHEN PEOPLE TELL YOU THEIR DREAMS.

    Makes me feel like my soul is eating itself

    I changed my profile pic last night (don't change it much) pretty much all my comments were about my eyebrows. :/
    None of this "gorgeous hun" business for me. That's pretty TA!

    People who know they're decent looking and constantly changing their profile picture looking for 'gorgeous hun xx' and such comments and likes. I didn't know people could find nurishment from facebook comments and likes. Soon there will be Oxfam type ads for people starving for likes and comments.

    Played to the tune of Everybody Hurts

    'Just one like a day can feed a person's ego for an hour. A comment can sustain them for an hour. Please donate your likes and comments to help end this tragedy. Without your help these people will starve and with their egos deflated. Please help, thank you.'

    Feck, a girl in the pub was being friendly in the smoking area and I didn't pay attention as I thought she was a Bruree house merchant. She told me she was waiting on a friend. An hour later she's chatting up some other bloke and the friend arrives. I coulda scored! gfdi.

    If I could thank you 100 times, I would.
    I HATE people telling me about their dreams. I have zero interest in what happened in your IMAGINATION WHILE YOU SLEPT.
    Bore off.

    9/10 times I respond to a dream story in two really childish ways.

    1. Tell them a long story in minute detail about my "dream" which entails a regular day where nothing of note happens.

    2. Tell them that last night I dreamt I lit their house on fire after they told me a dream story

    Ah thanks.
    Unfortunately getting rear ended on a bike is pretty clear cut, it's basically guaranteeing you a fúcked back for life.
    It happened on Thursday and I still can't walk properly. I was bad enough walking on my leg that was broken in the previous crash, still a lot of problems with that, so basically now I just need to be put down :rolleyes:

    TA'd that Graham Norton never seems to leave enough time for the "stories from the red chair" . It's my favourite part but the time is usually hogged by crap music performances and pointless interviews afterwards.

    I'd love it if they got rid of the music performances altogether and just stuck to chatting to guests and the red chair.
    The red chair is hilarious :pac:

    People who defend the actions of parents smacking kids. I don't particularly like kids, and I absolutely detest naughty kids, but hate the thoughts of a grown adult striking a small child. There's so many more effective ways to teach kids right from wrong. It bugs me how many people seem to think its ok.

    They should do a red chair special at least once a month :D .

    Always easy to look on judgmental from the outside.
