    Just found six napkins in with my roll that I just bought. SIX.
    A grown adult needs one, maximum.

    My TA is the opposite. I hate it when you only get one measly napkin!

    I could not give a sh1t about Jeremy Clarkson's BBC contract.

    People with zero spatial awareness in close surroundings like public transport. Stuff like refusing to take off your dumb rucksack or slamming into people's space.

    Like the moron beside me that looks like she's reading this as I type it.

    Jesus, I'm sick and tired of hearing news coverage about bloody Jeremy Clarkson, the guys a wan*er who presents a car programme. His loss isn't a tragedy, enough already with the news coverage, at this rate they'll be interviewing dogs in the street for their opinion on the matter.

    This rubbish about breaking the internet. Go away!! I don't want to read those words together on every single article I read.

    TA: I'm on a health kick over the past few weeks, but I've to work late tonight and can feel my belly starting to rattle.
    The canteen is closed and the only healthy thing the vending machines have are bottles of water!
    Galaxy Caramels are full of essential nutrients right?

    Right??

    What annoys me a little is that every single shop assistant seems to use that 'are you ok there?' phrase these days now. Whats wrong with 'can I help you with something' or 'what can I do for you' or 'yes please' or the likes. Its kinda flippant I find. Its like its too much to acknowledge they're there to actually serve you.

    Ye I'm fkn grand here, great spot this, anything else you wanna ask me?

    I can top that. Bought some cheap knickers this morning in Dunnes and yer wan behind the desk asked me if I like boxer style knickers, I don't, so I said no, at which point she grabbed a pair of pink boxer style knickers off a rail behind her and started telling me how comfy they are and how much she loves them. :eek: Eh feck off love, I don't like discussing my underwear with strangers.

    Kids, particularly the really, really, really annoying ones. There was one in Lidl this morning and he kept shouting his little head off. He was shouting the name of everything he passed in the shop, i.e, bananas. That wasn't as bad as the constant shouts of Mommy, mom, mommy, mommy mom. I actually felt really sorry for his mum, I could barely cope with it for the few minutes that I was in the shop, I honestly have no idea how people cope with kids.

    I was hobbling along last night on my 'power walk' and an elderly man was almost keeping pace with me. In my defence, I was in a lot of pain, but still like, the humiliation of it. I can try to convince myself that he was an especially fit oap, but I'd be kidding myself.

    Bird overtook me in heels last year, and as a born bogger I walk fast.

    Morto I was.

    Jogging to keep up with a young wan is not cool

    She actually said this to you?
    And you didn't respond with telling her to fukc right off with her judgemental crap about your appearance(although a well timed uppercut would have been sweet)

    Jesus, and people wonder why bullying in schools is rife.......
    It's not off the stones they lick it.


    Yes she actually said that to me, and even tho I wanted to tell her to f off I decided that I wouldn't let myself down. I just ignored her and one of the other mothers started talking to me about make up and clothes, really just to piss her off.

    I thought when I left school that I would leave all the bitchiness behind, but some women are just bitches at any age.

    My boyfriend's dad just backed into my car and has left quite a dent in the back door. I don't really mind as I had it parked in a silly place. My boyfriend, on the other hand, is being completely ridiculous about it. Some people over react far too much!

    I just had someone ring my mobile, it was a mobile number I didn't recognise so I didn't answer. He left a voicemail, 2 sentences and I couldn't understand what he said. no idea who it was.

    I text the number to ask who it was but got no answer. Annoying.

    They can't kill you over the phone, and if it's someone you don't want to speak to, just hang up!

    No way, hate getting stuck talking. I just don't answer, if it's important they'll send a message or leave a voicemail.

    Preparations needed for the NCT. Hate having to go to the hassle of temporarily having to empty all my work equipment out of the boot.

    Mine is coming up. Every two years I need to spend about half an hour with the hair dryer trying to get the condensation out of the left indicator light chassis before driving down to get the NCT.
    And then when you pass - feel like dumping the car and getting pissed.
