When yanks on the internet use "bias" instead of the past participle "biased".

"That's so bias".

Grrr..:mad:

Before I knew how to spell the word I used to think it was "buyest" and even wrote it in an essay:-o

Every time the camera is on him, that Brian Cody lad is pacing up and down, and spitting into his hands.
After match interview will go like this...
Marty : Well Brian, what did you think of the game?
Brian : Well Marty, I suppose d'ye know, at the end of the day it was a game of two halves d'ye know. We were put to the pin of our collar I suppose at the the end of the day I suppose d'ye know.

Turn off telly.

RTÉ - they said they are doing full coverage of Electric Picnic this year, yet here we are, with 33% of the festival complete, and not a peep on RTÉ about it.

And when they do eventually show something, it'll probably be that idiot Eoghan McDermot interviewing Georgia Flucking Salpa or some RTÉ employee and talking about wellies, while making stupid jokes about frogs and lollipops!!

No coverage of today at all. Not that I can see anyway.

Kilkenny's domination of the hurling every year.

Took the kids out to Howth today, driving around for a bit trying to find parking.
Seen a car getting ready to pull out, so I stop and jam on the indicator. The other car isn't quite ready, that's grand, the folk behind me start to drive around as they can see what is happening.
Car reverses out of space, starts to drive off, I drive slightly past the space, put the car in reverse, start the manoeuvre and a black SUV thing flys around me and into the space!
I got out of the car and said to the lady, "Excuse me, I was reversing into that space", she says something like "it doesn't matter" gestures something with her hand and nods her head.

Now at this point, if she had of said 'Sorry, i didn't realise' then I would have knew that she genuinely didn't see me.

The next words from my mouth where (rather loudly)

"YOU MOTHERF*CKER"

she was taken aback, people stopped in their tracks. Next words out of my mouth

"YOU ARE AN IGNORANT F*CKING AS$HOLE"

and she walks off.

While this was happening, some lad chimed in....'You're dead right buddy', the where murmurs from others as well, I think someone even clapped.

I couldn't believe it. I got into the car and explained to the kids that I was silly for using bad language and apologised to them.

We found parking a short time later and started to make our way to the sea lions. Guess who just happened to walk last. She said 'That is terrible language', my response was, 'Maybe, but at least I'm not a horrible person'.

If my kids were not there, I would have gone bonkers at her. Thankfully my kids understand that I'll only use bad language very rarely and when I do it serves a purpose. Although, I do feel a bit bad for any other kids that had to hear my outburst.

The epitome of struggling for something to say:

"It certainly was a game of two halves, wasn't it?"

Mister Vain · 06-09-2015 05:43PM

I'll always remember Pat Spillane's quote, "was it a good game... no, but bejasus it was exciting."

fussyonion · 06-09-2015 06:14PM

Completely feel your pain, Boombap.
I get serious rage if another driver pi**es me off. I get so annoyed that I'm visibly shaking and I can't calm down for ages.
It's gotten so bad that I've just had to bite my tongue and keep calm before I let someone get to me that badly.

Wasps. May have been mentioned before, but I can't remember them being such a problem. :mad:

I feel like I'm the only person who's not noticing this.

I'm so unhealthy!!!

Have to clean my bedroom up at some point- starting to run out of space for all the clothes and random junk.
Just need motivation to actually do it. Also, it's 2015- where are the robot butlers/maids for doing this shiote? :mad:

How so many war films have what is almost an obligatory scene where a main character is close to an explosion, and the next few scenes are silent, until their hearing eventually comes back.

When hubby decides that soothers don't need to be sterilised for 7 week olds so I end up going downstairs to sterilise it and baba wakes up while waiting. An hour and a half of feeding, winding, nappy changing, babygro changing and darling husband wakes and asks are we still awake. No I generally sleep standing up half way between the bed and the changing unit with baba slung over my shoulder you numpty. So lucky we don't have American gun licence laws.
Why doesn't he do the work? Cos he's up at 6:30 in the morning operating heavy machinery and I usually prefer him alive. He'll sterilise everything in sight after this though!!

I just remembered something about a friend I knew. He claimed to hate Billy Connolly, saying that all he does to get a laugh is shout loud and make no sense. He said he was "not funny and generally sh*t". That's fine, like. He's entitled to have an opinion, not everyone has to like the same thing as you. That's not my TA, though.

This is my TA.

I decided to challenge his opinion without him ever realizing.

Every now and then I'd quote a joke by Billy Connolly to him while in the car with him. He'd never know it was his jokes. It became a horrible habit after a while, I'd just blurt out random BC stories (any Connolly fan will know the kind of stories he does talk about in his stand-ups) and with every punch line delivered, he laughed.

After about a week I said to him that every joke I kept telling him was directly quoted from Billy Connolly and he was stumped for words. He still told me he was sh*t but I know deep down he finds his material funny.

The Trivial Annoyance is; Hating someone or something for little-to-no reason other than just for the sake of hating them.

I wouldn't have minded if the game had of been a classic, but it wasn't even that!!
I think we've been spoilt with Hurling finals the last couple of years, what with all the replays we got.
Kilkenny were off form yesterday, and they still won it!! a big lost opportunity for Galway.

When you're eating a roll with a lot of fillings and you take a bite and stuff starts squeezing out and ends up on your lap.

Kevin McStays commentary oh it was a 'delicious' point by McManus.It was a 'bitter sweet succulent' chip over the keepers head..Sounds like hes on an M&S ad on TV describing their latest deserts line for the summer

robindch · 07-09-2015 12:09PM

About 0.001 on a scale of one to ten, but medics generally referring to a newborn child by the soulless, disembodied term "baby", as in:

Doc: So, how is baby this morning.
Parent: Baby is fine this morning. I is fine this morning too. Doctor is good this morning?
Doc: WTF?

eisenberg1 · 07-09-2015 01:12PM

Boombap, I was in Howth yesterday and the parking was a nightmare alright, and aul bints like the one you encountered don't help, but what about those poxy seagulls? Fcukers were everywhere!
