With all this talk of breakfast rolls I had to have a rasher sandwich. Went out with ketchup all over my face without knowing after chowing down.

Rasher and ketchup sandwiches are the dream

Graveyards.

They're disgusting, and more so for the urban ones.

Underneath your feet it's just a big toxic sludge of A. human remains (grand) B. treated wood from the coffins (Not grand) and C. the crap the undertakers fill you with to keep you fresh (Not grand)

When I shuffle off this mortal coil, it'll be a plain wooden box down the fields, and there'll be grass growing over me, not ornamental gravel adorned with plastic flowers.

Derek. Ryan is much much worse.

But yeah RTE's idolatry of tame Irish country music is annoying.

Trivially annoyed that my little shopping trolley gave up the ghost yesterday. Sure, it was just a cheap auld canvas thing from Tiger but it was reliable and made bringing groceries back from Lidls/JCs a doddle. (I don't drive)
The kickstand got banjaxed because some IGNORANT SLUT thought it would be fun to stand on the metal brake part on a packed bus. :mad:
I managed to replace it, no bother, but I still miss my old one. I'm just not a "pink strawberry motif" kind of girl!
Also, I want a breakfast roll!

The small shop on Harolds grange Road, the roll or sandwich is just stuffed with chicken pieces and the salad is the after thought and they're HUGE and only E3.50.:D

Great stuff, now all I have to do is to drive about 125 miles to get one.:(

I bought a doner kebab when sober. Bad idea, never again.

Worse idea: mentioning "kebab" in here!

My kitten brought a live mouse into the house earlier. I am terrified of them so I was crying and panicking a bit. Now everyone is laughing at me for being ridiculous

I have guests coming this weekend. What was I thinking?!

Can you get a new one in a triple pack with a tartan blanket and a platic rain bonnet (to protect the blue rinse) :pac:

In all seriousness, I'm sure they are very useful for shopping when you have no car, admittedly I do love my panniers

You know something, when I was younger I used to worry about all that crap. But once I stopped worrying about it life became so much nicer.
Just be you and have some goals that you want to achieve for you. Fck the rest of em!

People who think quoting funny bits from The Simpsons makes THEM funny.

Has anyone seen these two guys in the same room?:)

People who are perpetually offended at every single cause. On par with ISIS.

Passive-aggressive people.

My lovely friend is a long time lurker on boards. She keeps sending me snapchat pictures of my posts! Not impressed ðŸ˜

People who battle each other on every forum.

The fact that the weather for my race on Sunday has switched from "British Variable" to "just plain shíte" within today's forecasts. :mad:

I think a lot of that applies to other countries also. But the bigger crowd at your funeral is certainly uniquely Irish.

When you're quite clearly in the bathroom (light switch is on or tap is running while you wash your hands or brush your teeth) and someone tries to open the door. Some people are so unobservant!

Wrote a post ages ago in a fever of trivial annoyance and it didn't work, stupid internet.
The fabulous moment when the bag of bottles in the boot keel over en route to the bottle bank. I'm then on my knees at the boot of the car, slowly edging the boot open, desperately trying to stop an avalanche of bottles and jars crashing on the ground.
My 3yr old jumped in a little stream so violently that the water went up over her wellys, soaking her socks. This is within minutes of getting there. Cue her taking them off and having to be carried

I put a whole stock cube into the dinner when it should have been half of one. Should have gone to Specsavers

Mother on the phone....nothing else to add apart from the fact that she insists on using Viber even though the connection breaks down every 20 seconds....

rosie16 · 17-07-2015 08:41PM

Went for what was meant to be a leisurely/lazy cycle. The kind where your not interested in going fast, up hills, etc. I'm less relaxed than I was before I went-ha! Met the owner of the big black lab, put the lead on my dog and my dog got twisted up and somehow managed to snap the rear mudguard in half. It's an ancient bike but I'm still trivially annoyed. And I got two flies/midges in the same eye.

Having my phone battery at a nice healthy 80-90% before bed, but by morning it's drained overnight and down to 20 despite no activity. I can't keep it charged overnight for safety reasons and in the morning I never have enough time to get it charged back up to a decent level before I've to head out. And it drains quicker than it charges.

Safety reasons? Just plug it in before you go to bed
