Wanker watch: Warning signs that someone is a tosser

Boring username

What sets your alarm bells ringing that someone is a bit of an arsehole? For me, there are a handful of things that almost always ring true (although there have been very, very rare exceptions in general.)

1. Wearing a trendy Palestinian type scarf. Always a major indicator that a know it all, insufferable bore is about to lecture you with their 'right on' views of the world. Sometimes accompanied by a neckbeard and general scruffiness.

2. A cokehead. I don't think I ever met a cokehead who wasn't a prick. It really is a great way of identifying a jumped up big time wannabe. Avoid.

3. Any of that corporate speak i.e. "going forward, we'll touch base, from the get-go, out of the ballpark etc".

You are cordially invited to vent you rage and misgivings in your own words.

Big time but her poxy accent and pompus attitude is too much for me, her looks cannot cancel out the rest. and that other stocking cagney looks like an oul coot beside her, grinning all the time like the housewifes favourite.

Just to add my two cents of working in retail

-people who won't get off the phone when you're doing a transaction
-people who fling the money on the counter instead of into your hand
-people who give out to the cashier over the price of goods
-people who throw a bag at you and expect you to pack everything for them
-all those yokes who never say please or thank you

On the other side of the above

Cashiers who put the change on the counter despite you handing the money to them and you have your hand out.

Cashiers who continue on with a conversation on the phone it with a work colleague while your standing there.

Cashiers who dont say hello or please, thank you or goodbye.

I fucking loathe when people say "Euro" instead of the plural "Euros". It sounds retarded. Some gushing idiot on the radio or tv announcing prices ...."Summer saver discount fares to all destinations. Price start at just 29 Euro"

Sounds absurd. When the pound was the currency you said "4 pounds, 27 pounds", whatever. A few dopes in Ireland would say "Jaysus, Francie, dat only cost tree pound" Did Irish people also say "5 Franc", "1000 peseta", "50 deutschmark"??

It's 1 fucking euro or two/three/four euros.

"Ladies who lunch"

Something like ordering a f%cking pannini and a few taytos, a salad, discarding the bread out of the inside of a roll, all that stuff, when you know full well if they were at home they'd tear into a huge dinner and stuff their faces. Why don't they just go for the option they truly want. We're the only species who seem to think it's wrong to be hungry and we must suppress it.

Same applies to people who insist on getting their portion of salad in their kebab at 3 o'clock in the morning and hold up the Q. Ffs.

Those who pull out in front of you, from a side road onto the main road, and then don't bother their arse speeding up, so you end up having to jam on the brakes.

Especially when you're the only car on the road and there's nobody behind you, but they felt the need to pull out in just front of you rather than let you pass.

Guys who walk around with their protein shakers every where they go. Even a few dopes where I work who walk through the office at exact times to the water cooler to fill their shakers just to show everyone that they are , you know, very serious about their fitness.

**** off and drink a protein shake if you want but your not ****ing Arnold Schwarzenegger because your able to mix up water and powder.

People who went out of their way to make sure everyone knew that they were voting yes in the marriage equality referendum because they feel so strongly about equality in our society and then proceeded to vote against lowering the presidency age. Dribbling morons.

I vote yes to both but in fairness they weren't the same type of issue at all. The age restriction on the presidency affects all groups in our society equally.

Just about sums up the staff in my local Dunnes. You spend your time looking at the back of their head... It's like getting served by Linda Blair.

And what about the people under 21 that wanted to be President? You could also argue that not being allowed to marry until your 17 or 18 is ageist against pre-teens. We have age restrictions for many things in life. It's why we don't see 10 year olds driving cars. We have an age restriction for the presidency that applies equally to all people irrespective of race, gender, sexual orientation or creed - marriage prior to the referendum was discriminatory to gay people.

While the logic may be perfectly sound, it is still selective equality and entirely hypocritical but there you go, people can bend their definition of equality to suit their own beliefs.

Do we remove all age restrictions to achieve true equality? Like I said I voted to lower the age of eligibility but many people preferred restricting it to people they felt had more life experience. That's fair enough - it was always seemed more about the notion of someone conceivably running for president in their 20s if they wanted to rather than the very real day to day problem of gay people not being allowed to enjoy the same privileges as those of straight people.

- People reading newspapers when driving. The same thing applies to people on mobile phones when driving.

- People in (mostly) flashy cars driving like they think they own the road.

- Skobies in their souped up cars blasting out whatever sort of music they listen to and just tear around the place.

- People being c*nts to others because they are generally just c*nts. Treating them like they are lesser than them.

- People that clear their throats of phlegm in front of others.

- People that spit on the streets or just litter. There's no need for it.

Yes, there are, most of them some variation on adult vs child. Name another of them of substance with a cutoff higher than 21. What about the presidency makes it resonable that Leo Varadkar couldn't legally do it before last year?

But not age. I think we've already established this.

- marriage prior to the referendum was discriminatory to gay people.

I have no idea what you're arguing here. Yes, discrimination is bad.

It's a pretty standard cutoff age internationally.

I was saying that before the referendum was discriminatory specifically to gay people - the presidential age limit applies whether you're gay, straight, man or woman. I voted in favour of it but I'm not going to wring my hands in despair that the youth of this country are suffering because it didn't pass.

Yeah_Right

People who ruin a fun, lighthearted thread that lots of people are enjoying by arguing with other posters about topics that actually had their own threads and were debated to death ages ago.

Those people = ****.

"It's only equality when I agree with it"..

In reality if you're deemed old enough to vote, then you should also be old enough to receive a vote in a Presidential election. It's needs no further complication. We are a republic of citizens.

No excuses about how gays deserve more 'equality' than the rest of us. Because unlike that particular group of people the under 25's have no powerful lobby group or any real political representation to speak on their behalf.. Which brings us back to the reason why a young person should be able to run for President.

Equality-whingers really are at times their own biggest enemies / hypocrites.
