People posting very specific TAs that can't be related to generally.

I had a moment like that this morning alright, wasn't sure was it something that could be related to generally or specifically, which was damn TA in itself

Basically when you call someone in for a chat and before I even opened my mouth, they admitted something which was much worse than the thing I was going to chat to them about! :pac:

I couldn't say anything then as I felt so bad for them

Queue skippers! Was stood behind a guy last Saturday while he spent literally aaages filling in his lotto slip. I needed to use the pen otherwise I wouldn't have waited behind him. He only had the one slip as well. Christ he was slow.

Then he proceeds to walk to the head of the queue and skips about ten people waiting in line. It really annoys me when people skip and it equally annoys me when nobody complains to the person for skipping. I went straight up to him and said "excuse me the queue starts this way", and he took his place behind me. Its so bloody cheeky, like we are gonna say "oh off ya go there aren't ya lovely, sure we're all just lining up here for the craic!"

If there is one thing that will get me shouting and ranting in public it is queue skippers. I hate them!

Automatic air fresheners - the kind that gives a squirt every 5 minutes or so.
In the office, during the week, fine. But on Monday morning, when nobody's been in the bog for two days and there's absolutely no ventilation, the atmosphere is barely breathable.

Kids running around in supermarkets and it's only going to get worse over the summer. Why dafuq do they need 3 months holiday? It's ridiculous.:mad:

Buying a car!

"Is it worth my driving for an hour to view it" I said
"Oh yes, it's a lovely car" he said
"9 out of ten, it is" he said
"Best example of this model/year in Ireland"'he said
"Genuine car, one owner, warranty" he said

I went and viewed it

"Shove it up yer hole" I said

This has its roots in various archaic reasoning to do with school building ventilation, the belief that the poor little waifs weren't able for a full year of school, the fact that in the old days half of them didn't turn up anyway, the requirements of farm-work, and last-but-not-least the emergence of a new and Teachery middle-class who increasingly wanted to ape their betters by spending the Summer big-game hunting in The Gambia. :pac:

I spent quite a bit of time staring at the letters 'TA' which kept cropping up in this thread, it's embarrassing how long it took me to realise that it was an abbreviation for 'Trivial Annoyances', which is a trivial annoyance in itself

When you're next in the queue in the supermarket with people behind you... you thought the person in front looked like trouble but the queue was shorter but it's all going well so far... nearly scanned all the items... and you see the checkout girl reaching for the phone...

It's not holidays that are needed, but more spaying.

Welcome to the club, do come in, there are many of us here.

Having long legs. They don't fit in small cars or under tables and they stick out too far from the chair I'm sitting on. I just can't seem to find a place for them where they are out of the way.

Sometimes I wish I was shorter but then other times I love being tall. I can't make up my mind.

I'll have your long legs ! I'd kill sometimes to be willowy and elegant. I hate sitting on chairs and my legs are swinging like a child. I do this thing where I try to compensate by bending my feet back the way , but it gives me cramps. I drive on top of the steering wheel and hope I'm never smothered with the airbag

. It was handy last Halloween though, I had a witches hat on going out with the little one, and I got sweets too

Jack Grealish for Ireland. Why would he want to play for our bunch of no-hopers? He'll never play in a major tournament.

One last annoyance for the day. I'm house sitting these past few weeks for my sister and her husband. I came home today to find his mother had let herself in and taken all my washing that I had on the radiators and hung them out to dry, like all my underwear and everything! Am I right to be a little annoyed by that?!

Pumpkinseeds

When your washing stinks of the neighbours bbq smoke. :mad:

The OH squeezes and squirts far too much cleaning products when cleaning up. Only a small bit is needed!
Best not to complain as she's the one cleaning!

Really annoys me. I call them on it too. I love the 'pretend you think everyone else is so stupid' effort whereby someone walks in, sees a long queue, and walks straight to the desk. Yes, the rest of us are just having a little stand here, don't you know.

I was in Marks and Spencers one evening, returning something, and there is a long couch to sit on, while waiting. It was very busy so everyone sat down. There is no mistaking that it is the queue though. People are still in a row, there is a rope alongside, and the whole lot. The only difference is people can sit, instead of standing.

But of course, someone arrived, attempted to walk straight to the desk, then belatedly asked 'is this the queue'. No, we are just sitting here gazing at the staff doing their jobs.

I was relieved when my GP finally employed a receptionist as until that point the queue jumpers had a nasty habit of loitering in the corridor and making a dash in to the doctor as soon as the previous patient came out of the room while everyone else sat in the waiting room. A couple of times I spotted it and greeted them with a loud 'I don't fcuking think so':mad: Sometimes you just have to publicly embarrass them and most people prefer to avoid a scene, so they get into the habit of jumping the queue.

Just noticed that lots of my plants in the garden have aphids and spittlebugs on them

so frustrating! I lost a good few of them a few years ago thanks to a massive infestation, it nearly put me off gardening altogether. I hope I caught it early enough this time.

When you cut the grass and it looks lovely, then a few days later it has feckin grown again. Full of daisies too. Hate that.

I get so narky when it grows so fast. As if I'm going to cut it every week.

Huge bloody garden too, so I am totally fekked.

I've been having the same conversation with the same person every damn day and it's really getting on my t1ts. "What did you do today? What are you doing tonight?" Are they tracking my movements or what?

I made a trap to catch fruit flies and the little f*ckers aren't taking the bait. They are the bane of my life right now. F*cking flying in my face, landing on food I'm preparing dancing on the dishes as I'm putting them on the draining board. And the spiders I've given free reign to aren't eating them!

This impatient b1tch stood right up my arse when I was picking bread in the shop, it took me 2 seconds but she still felt the need to tut and invade my personal space.

I've been trying to drink more water and I've been yo-yoing to and from the bathroom.

I broke ANOTHER glass and forgot to get more in the shop today.

I scalded my knee when I was carrying a pot of tea.

I haven't had the opportunity to rant on this much lately. Sorry - build-up
