    I was awoken at 6:45 this morning by a teddy to the face...15 minutes later than usual. I feel lucky!

    People with double-barrelled names.

    A few girls who I went to school with are now married and a few days after the wedding they changed their names on Facebook.

    Out of 8 of them who were married, 6 now have double-barrelled names.
    So instead of it being (e.g) "Lisa Smith", it's now "Lisa Smith-Murphy" or instead of it being "Ciara Ryan" it's now "Ciara Ryan-King".

    Feck off.


    I'm not a fan of double-barrelled names but I'd forgive females having their maiden name and their married names on Facebook for the reason that it's easier for people to find them, so long as there's no hyphen. Using your example, Ciara Ryan-King=bad, Ciara Ryan King=good.

    The double-barrelled name shouldn't be used in the real world. I worked with a lad who added his wife's surname to his own. :confused:

    Being asked "where are the eggs / bread / coffee etc"? when I'm in a supermarket - just because I'm wearing a shirt and tie.

    I don't know why, but for some reason whenever I'm walking around in a hospital people just assume I'm a doctor, maybe it's my resting bitch face.:D

    OK, I need a bit of a vent. People who disturb your sleep on a Sundays morning, yes SKY, I know we're having an engineer come out on Wednesday, but there really is no need to text me at 8am on a Sunday morning to remind me of that.

    I thought that was bad enough, only for fookwit and friends to arrive back at 9.30am pilled up from wherever they were last night. 2 fooking car loads of the pilled up bastards and I can hear them babbling away so fast they sound like horse racing commentators. Those idiots need a big mug of go the fook home to your parents house and sleep it off. Now where did I leave that AK47?

    I'm annoyed that I seem to have lost my ability to be annoyed by trivial things. I feel like I've lost my ranting mojo!

    I have a double barrelled surname because my mother didn't change her name when she got married. I don't see why a guy wouldn't take his wife's name???

    That never happens to me because I turn off my mobile phone when I go to bed.

    Agree about the double barrelled names.

    They sound particularly bad when the 2 surnames are a Mc, an O or similar.

    And then some folk have a double barrelled first name too.

    What about Marie-Loiuse O'Doherty - Mc Laughlin.

    Why is it that whenever you're in a rush, the time flies by, but when you're not going anywhere, time stands still?!

    I'm going out soon and my wet hair is still in a towel, I haven't a scrap of make-up on, I haven't eaten and I have no idea what I'm wearing.
    I'm meant to be leaving the house in an hour!

    Seeing the first signs of Christmas in the supermarkets. Last week the tins of biscuits appeared on display this week the snazzy coffee machines are sitting on the top shelves. It's still August, only just, but still.

    trivially annoyed that I forget my TAs as soon as I log into Boards.


    Have a long list of them mounting up during the day, but as soon Boards.ie is in address bar it is a "delete memory" job in brain.

    Fookwit and friends are still going strong. Jesus H, I'm sick of listening to them at this point. Whatever pills or potions they're on to keep them going from last night til now must be bloody good. I think it's going to be a long night.:(

    I know how you feel. Usually it's the early hours of a Saturday/Sunday morning if he does this crap. I always wear ear plugs on Friday and Saturday nights, but my husband has to get up for work at 5amish:(:mad: Anyway, I'm off to bed for a read, hopefully we'll just nod off eventually:mad:

    "Friends" who have a habit of leaning on you or resting their elbow on your shoulder and then get pissed off when you walk away and let them fall.
