It's nice to use a bowl, a bit less messy than eating from the packet but we don't do it unless we're finishing them off. Putting them in the cupboard in a bowl does seem weird.

Crisps and sweets get eaten from a bowl in our house for a few reasons.
1) Less chance of the bag ripping open and spilling its contents all over the place.
2) Less noise...hate that russtle sound.
3) You can pick the sweets you like and leave the ones you dont (brown M&Ms!)
4) Its just muck savage to do it any other way!

Its the green ones that get left here..I bought Jelly Babies during the week and about 75% were green:( What brown M&Ms dont you like..peanut or chocolate?
Also I eat more (especially peanuts)if theyre in a bowl .

The fact that I have no edibles in the house so I need to go and interact with local people in the local shop (for locals!).

The deli is good but the volume of one of the staff causes ear-ringing for miles around.

Trivially annoyed that so many sweets have gelatine in them. Being a veggie means I can't find many that are veggie friendly and am 'forced' to eat family sized bags of crisps instead at weekends.:D

Drizzle. If it's going to rain just ****ing rain, don't leave me in this limbo as to if I can go about my business outdoors.

My biggest weather annoyance though is wind. There are times I like the cold or enjoy the rain beating down outside when I'm indoors but wind really pisses my off. That feeling of something constantly blowing at you and the noise it makes.

Wind is the worst thing about Ireland's weather. 18 degrees should mean being able to get away with a cheeky pair of shorts. A gust of wind and it feels like it could be snowing.

A "cheeky" pair of shorts? Please explain, and bear in mind that a lot of the posters here have minds that are constantly in the sewer.....not me though:D

They're the shorts you wear going to nandos.

Being a townie living on a farm. We had to go and move cattle from one field to another. No one had a plan so there was a lot of yelling and running around like headless chickens.

Next time I want a two page plan, risk assessment and a diagram before I go near those bloody beasts!

The "we'll buy your phone" company (I wont name it) who thought it was a great idea to do a "leaflet" drop of (30 X 45cm, ish) plastic bags thru the letterbox, sure don't kids hate colourful things like that and wouldn't dream of playing with it. nice one.

Thank you soo much!

How did the use of that expression reach epidemic proportions?

Pumpkinseeds · 25-06-2015 09:04PM

Clumsiness. I hit myself in the jaw with a cupboard door, the irony was that I was putting painkillers back in that cupboard.

Guys in flats beside us cooking horrible smelling food and I dont think theres anything i can do to stop the smell coming in

Miss Demeanour · 25-06-2015 10:23PM

When you come in from a night out. You have work in the morning. You know you should go to bed.....then that bottle of white waves at you teasingly from the fridge......

Already expensive pizza places increasing their prices.

When the main shower in the house runs out of hot water....have to do that cold wet run to the other shower that heats its own water.
And always forget to conduct an investigation in to why the hot water ran out in the first place.

I can't stop biting my nails. I just bit my thumbnail and a bit of skin came off in the corner, that'll hurt later. I know nail-biting is disgusting and makes a horrible sound, but I can't stop. It's a habit. I once tried that stuff that you dip your nails in, that is supposed to taste horrible and is meant to put you off biting your nails. I liked the taste! Aw cr@p, my thumb is bleeding now.

CrowdedHouse · 26-06-2015 10:08AM

I was doing a bit of weeding in the garden last evening, I seem to have got a thistle thorn in my finger, every so often it hits me a dart - annoying!

Robsweezie · 26-06-2015 10:40AM

Keyboard warriors on Facebook with no profile picture, or stuff that isn't even them like football crests, anime characters, their dog.....sorry I can't take anyone serious if they haven't the balls to show their face whilst acting brave :-o

People with no sense of urgency. If we have to be out the door to be somewhere in 5-10 minutes you better move quick. Hate time wasting or dawdling.

When the volume of a spilled liquid, doesn't add up to the volume of the original liquid that was contained within a glass/cup.

I sat on the couch the other night and rested my mug where I have been resting it for the last several years.

However on this occasion, my hand suddenly decided to develop epilepsy and flung the contents of the cup onto the floor as I was putting the mug down.

I spent the next five minutes cleaning up the mess and there was so much tea on the ground, I had to eventually go and get a towel.

I then picked up the mug and noticed that only a mouthful of tea was gone from the mug. I had just spent five minutes cleaning about 3 litres of tea from the floor, yet there was only a mouthful gone from my cup.

Me too! I have kicked it in the main but have to have a nail file /clippers everywhere I go and use them if I get a nick. I had to try a different brand of nail bite stuff and use it just as a reminder not to be doing it. I found it harder to kick than smoking.

On thread - that ****ING new Vodafone advert. Melts my ****ING brain ðŸ˜ ðŸ˜
