    TA at myself for finding a bargain on eBay...but then getting in a bidding war for said item....and ending up paying over the odds.
    Too stubborn for my own good.

    I never get involved with that because the money escalates way too fast.

    I know. And I know all the pit falls. And I know Mrs Happy will not be happy....but hard to resist temptation sometimes!

    The teachers moaning and complaining on the INTO thing in Ennis.
    A permanent, well paid, pensionable job. Loads of holidays, and short hours.
    Sure isn't it terrible for them. Finished every day at 3 o'clock.

    People that diagnose themselves with medical conditions. Unless they're skilled to do so. And by skilled I don't mean - can use a search engine.

    In fairness it's what a lot of the doctors are using these days.

    Being shushed in a pub by some cnut because their mate decides to provide unsolicited impromptu music /singing (that invariably sounds like a cat being skinned).

    A friend of mine is going in to be induced today, she told her close friends and said not to spread it around.

    Another friend posts on her Facebook 'good luck today with the induction, can't wait to meet the little man! '

    Now there's dozens of comments, oh it's a boy how lovely, you're being induced? Why didn't you tell me? Etc.

    It's sods law, there's always some talentless fcukwit with a guitar. The worst are the middle-aged guys, usually late 30's, who are still playing gigs in pubs but think one day they'll be famous. They always take their guitars to parties and bore the arse of people. :rolleyes:

    Or worse, when the rugby is on and everyone in the pub goes quiet when there is a penalty or conversion.....we're hardly gonna put the cúnt off when he's in another country :rolleyes:

    Finding something you need for a great price on Amazon.co.uk, you order it and go through the motions to pay only to be then told that it can't be shipped to Ireland. :mad:

    When you put a wash on, turn around and notice one sock has fallen out of the pile on the way over to the machine and is lying on the floor!

    Now that really annoys me!

    I'll be giving this a go tomorrow, I'm really nervous for some reason. Idiot :o

    I felt fine all day, had a lovely day at the beach, just had half an easter Egg and now I'm dying with heartburn. Why did I have to eat it??

    Tesco was closed at 9. That never happens. I was confusedly standing in front of the automatic door, wondering why it wasn't opening.

    there's an app that you can have on your phone, pop it on when that happens, and tells you what the song is.

    Not sure what it is called, but my friend uses it and finds it fab. Happy to check with her what it's called for you :D

    when a song on the radio is just about to finish, you reach around for your phone looking to shazam it but it finishes before you can....

    that app is brilliant all the same, it solves a classic first world problem, if you can find your phone quick enough :0

    The person in my 'social group' (wouldn't call her a friend) who is a complete compulsive liar. Watching eejits believe all the bull dramatic stories she tells is my TA. Talking about how educated she is, is the best because she cheated & plagiarised her way through college.

    I need to meet new people.
