TV3 overegging their Rugby World Cup coverage, all of their presenters bringing it up on unrelated segments, and now they have a countdown affixed to their logo on screen.

I'm looking forward to watching the games but lads give it a rest!!

Getting a cup of hot coffee in one of those cups that has a teeny tiny handle. Cant get your finger thru it and the cup is too hot too hold. Sitting here looking at it waiting for it to cool down.

Just a tip. You can hold the handle between your index finger and your thumb to pick it up as opposed to sticking your finger through it.

When people touch the tap with soapy hands and it's then too slippery to turn on!

I'm sure I've mentioned it before in here, but Bluetooth headset guy really gets on my nerves!!

I actually managed to pap him last week, I couldn't resist!!

I don't know why, I just don't like him!!
(Also, it's always bluetooth headset guy, never bluetooth headset girl)

(also, apologies for use of the term 'pap', TA'd with myself for using that term!)

Making too much of a delicious lunch so that it'll do for another meal later.

Lunch is so delicious that it gets walloped in its entirety.

Now I'm too full.

People who don't help themselves/unmotivated/lazy people. A friend of mine was looking for a PhD on a certain topic. The topic would be in a niche enough area and PhDs in this area are few and far between. Anyway I sent her the link and she replies "looks good, thanks. Can you tell me how to apply ect".

We also get people applying to do a PhD in the lab I used to work from. Some people expected to be handed the job. Out of 23 applicants only two read the papers involved. Another girl wanted me to help her prepare for an interview. I was in a cafe 5 mins walk from her when she text asking to meet. I told her where I was and she replied "too far"!!

I really think some of today's generation is spoiled silly.

Losing my appetite. I'm in my bf's parents house and they gave me dinner but I can only manage a quarter of it. I feel so bad leaving it.

In fairness if you can't work that out for yourself perhaps you shouldn't be allowed near hot drinks!

Edit - to add to the thread many people at work bring in lunch, in tupperware, foil or for the real cheapskates those freebie Irish Pride boxes. One guy brings his lunch in an earthenware pot tied off with a canvas rope bow. It's like something a Shogun would eat. I think I'm just jealous really.

Also much more serious is that I left my car with the mechanic Tuesday morn and he promised it would be ready this evening.Its not ready!Youd think that was bad enough but to make it WAY worse he didnt ring to tell me instead he rang my EX..this wont end well.

Isnt it bloody annoying when you are in the shower but your shampoo is in a different room? Wet carpets is another TA.

Was on the M50 today and there was an accident at the Ballymun slip road. The tail back of traffic was back to the M1. 2 lanes were blocked off by the emergency services to do what they had to do.

Firstly, the overhead signs were alerting motorists there was a serious accident. The amount of people jumping lanes, driving on the hard shoulder and making new lanes was ridiculous. Why in the name of jebus could they just not wait patiently instead of nearly causing further accidents. There was a Fiat 500 that nearly ended up under a big massive truck because it was trying to nudge in ahead of it but it's obvious the truck couldn't see the car. Luckily they backed off.

Secondly, when the traffic started to move after the accident, some drivers were driving like maniacs trying to make up lost time. The unrecognisable car that looked like an accordion didn't do anything for them.

typing out MS Word documents and that ugly red line appearing over misspelled words instead of just correcting the words itself, which it rarely does. also the passive aggressive green line where there isn't even a misspelling, just a stupid space between a full stop and another sentence. autocorrect or GTFO.

and when you're typing out a word, say 'poker' and you misspell it as 'pikeer' you go back to fix it by rearranging and replacing the letters, and the letters type over each other like a glitch. its often happened me on here as well.

It is very difficult to wind me up. I only get wound up when I feel like someone who is supposed to care about me is purposely trying to get a rise out of me. This situation almost never happens to me but when it does, it really pisses me off:

When someone starts an argument with you, and you calmly succeed in pointing out to them clearly and concisely why what they're saying is completely incorrect, and so they've run out of things to come at you with, so then they say something like "You're being argumentative / over-defensive" to try and make you look bad, because they've been proven 100% wrong and have nothing else to say.

I really hate that passive aggressive sh*t, especially when it's a friend who's doing it.

e.g. this conversation that happened last week with a friend

Them: "I think [insert claim about me and how I live my life here]"
Me: *gives clear evidence as to why this is incorrect*
Them: "Okay well I think [insert another claim about me and how I live my life here]"
Me: *gives clear evidence as to why this is incorrect*
Them: "Well I think no matter what I say you're going to be over-defensive."
Me: *screams inside, because now there's absolutely nothing I can say without them "winning" that argument*

So they've knowingly wound me up, I've defended myself, and they've tried to make me look aggressive for defending myself. Am I not meant to? Am I meant to just say "Yeah, you're right" even when what they're saying is completely factually incorrect? Or am I meant to just ignore what they're saying? If I ignored them, they'd say "Why are you ignoring me?"

Argh. I really hate that.

Card Payment reader's that don't 'beep' when entering your pin.

I need some aural feedback dammit!

These latest Suicide Prevention "copy and paste" statuses on Facebook.

Because nothing is more effective at alleviating the taboo associated with the problem than people sharing it on FB solely for the "likes" and attention.

Yes and it's even worse when you hop into the shower and forget your towels. How does someone even do that? Well apparently I do it.:(

J Mysterio · 10-09-2015 12:25PM

People who constantly complain about facebook in myriad ways. Just fckin quit it. My life has improved immesuarably since I did.

Rubberlegs · 10-09-2015 12:59PM

How come so many teens have tattoos these days ? I have nothing against tattoos at all, have some myself. I always thought you had to be over 18 to get one. Anyway my TA is my 15 yr old showing me photos on Facebook of the latest in her age group to get a tattoo, and damning me to be allowed to get one. Over my dead body at 15 !

Groups of ppl standing in a huddled group and just as you approach them they decide to disperse, invariably walking RIGHT IN YOUR PATH :mad::mad::mad:

I hate driving. I have loser plates which might explain it but I actually think other drivers are complete morons!

Driving home from work today and I see a car at the roundabout holding everyone up and telling them to go around him. I got to the roundabout and he pulled out in front of me. A minute later we come to another roundabout and the absolute idiot stops at the top of the roundabout and gestures for me to go around him! To make matters worse, it was on a hill and I conked out like a twit. What the hell was he thinking stopping to have a look around at the bloody roundabout!

And people who drive at about 6 kilometres an hour on a 100kmph road. Hurry up you snail!!
