Trivial things that annoy you Part 27

Evil b.itch on the luas this morning with a fur coat. Eugh. How many innocent animals were anally electrocuted and skinned while still conscious so that she can look like a c*nt?

The moron sitting in front of me wiping fluff off his trousers - hello it's going to land on me!

Facebook statuses asking people/telling people what they are giving up for lent.

The automatic died. Now I have to spend the weekend learning how to work a manual. F.uck. I've only been driving for three years. How embarrassing to have to stick up the L plates and get instructions from Daddy at 31 years of age.

When you wear your watch high up because it's a little loose, but then you can't pull your sleeve over it so one sleeve is higher than the other.

Texting an ex co-worker to meet for lunch and he replies that he can't (that part is ok) because he...has to "go to a strategic management meeting" - he's not a wet f.cuking weekend in the place and he thinks he's king of the corporate world with his f.ucking strategy meeting (which we all know just involves dozing while someone reads out slides of meaningless business lingo and then eating pastries after)


When a menu offers "codling" instead of cod. Now I have to dine elsewhere since I don't want to eat a baby

Wally's walking around with ashes on their foreheads all day. OK you've been to mass! good for you! but clean your bloody head after you leave the church because you look fu©king stupid!

I think most of them don't bother cleaning it of because they want everyone to see they've went to mass and everyone to think how wonderful they are.

Yes! Remember when we were school kids and we'd all be marched over the the paedo cave I mean church to get our faces blackened and we thought it was cool? It was ok to think it was cool because we were kids. Clearly some people never grew up. They just look like dipsticks. No problem with people who are actually devout having it done of course, but any of the idiots I've seen wearing shít on their craniums are those who I know for a fact use contraception, don't go to mass, eat meat on Friday, hate their neighbours, probably covet their neighbours wives etc. Just....attention seeking hypocrites. I'm also TA that this annoys me so much and I can't figure out why. Maybe it's because these people are so sanctimonious and they think we think they are cool... I actually confronted someone about it yesterday. I siad, "what the hell are you doing with that smut on your face, sure you've the moral compass of an alley cat?" and she didn't know what to say

My best friend is getting married tomorrow and I'm a bridesmaid. I've got two massive spots on my face! Typical!

My best friend got married last year and I wan't invited.

When my best friend got married, I had to go lie down in the bridal suite to sober up. I'm the classy friend.

Good and rightly-so. There is no place for lawless nut-jobs in wildlife management. What happened the automatic, BTW?

She just up and died Well, she'd been having a few problems. Leaking radiator so had to keep filling up with water. Got to a point where even filling her up would only get you a mile before the engine light would come on. Steering had gone a bit stiff too. 16 years old. Ex-taxi too and regularly used for carting around dogs and various other animals. Also, the one I learned to drive in so I may have contributed somewhat to the wear and tear. Quote of 500 to fix, not really worth it, and it wouldn't be let into a NCT centre

Thanks everyone for the advice! I'll try that Lexie! We are having someone to do our makeup so hopefully she'll cover it.

ONW that's awful, I can't beleive how mean she was to you

A couple of years ago, her mother gave her money (now, her mother wouldn't be too generous either, the kind with thousands in the bank but still waters down the orange juice), I think around fifty quid to get presents for all of my family for Christmas. She went to Heatons and bought Baylis and Hard on glitter/talc "gift" sets that had been reduced to a few euro, and pocketed the change. I still remember my mother's face when she opened a ten pack of strawberry and mango flavoured glitter shower gel, wondering who over the age of ten would use such a thing, while my ex BF received a lovely gift of perfume and of course beautiful toys for her son from all of us (not the little fella's fault of course, and I really miss him sometimes). What made it worse was that year my mum had actually suggested not exchanging gifts or doing a kris kindle and her mother insisted on doing it because it was "the last year she would be working" - hate to see what the gifts would be now!

Also, two years on the trot, she made a half hearted attempt to turn up at my birthday (always late of course and would arrive in a flurry, "I can't stay long, my parking is only paid up until 10!"), would drink a lime cordial, hand me a card and then say, "Oh shít I left your present in the boot!" - I never saw said present again on either occasion :P

<FNARGH!> The new "Vajazzling"?? :pac:

It's the "blue label" vajazzle, you might say. No need for jewels just sprinkle a bit of glitter on the ground and roll in it like an alley cat :P

My best friend got married in summer 2013. She's a complete princess, but we actually get on quite well usually. She gets me to do loads of stuff for her, never gives me anything, but if she picks me up or drives me somewhere I always give her money. Annnnnyway she had asked me if I could mind her dog while she was on two weeks honeymoon, I said that was okay, so just about 5 days before the wedding, that was when my dad was really sick. He was just finished his third round of chemo and he was really bad. Bloated up, couldn't walk, couldn't breathe. Brought him into oncology, and he was admitted into ICU. They got him
Sorted there pretty quick but that wasn't the point. His oncology doctor came to speak to me to tell me that it was "ward management" and therefore if he died. They would not resuscitate him. As usual, I was by myself. I'm not big into talking about my feelings, but I was so upset that I text her. I was sure he was going to die. So, I said to her about dad, the chemo and the icu. You know what she replied? "Oh ****. Does that mean you cannot mind the dog?"

I still went to the wedding and all, but we fell out shortly after and are only back on good terms a couple of months

It TAs me that I love being annoyed so much that I go out of my way to be annoyed. There is very little I like about Facebook, but I still look everyday to see what crap people are spouting. It makes my heart light to bitch and moan about it, even if it's only to myself. Right now I find myself looking at The Jeremy Kyle Show, I can't stand it, but the young one has it on. I hate him, I hate his degenerate guests, they must dredge the bottom of the barrel for them. Yet it's giving me so much to give out about, I'm actually delighted. Maybe I should make this my trivial thing that makes me happy?

Get out.

I posted it at the time and pretty much everyone else said the same thing Jim. Meh, live and learn though. I didn't mind the dog in the end
