    People who fold the corners of pages to use as a bookmark.

    It's not that hard to remember where you last read up to.

    Some people think the know it all, and only other people make mistakes, then they go on to argue that black is white with confidence.

    Anyone else having problems with this the last couple of days?

    Yes every site works perfectly fine in multiple browsers, but once I click on my Boards.ie bookmark I'll get the above message. And the fact that this is happening intermittently makes it more annoying.:(

    Entire population of internet.

    Fair play to ya, I always tend to forget about the existence of the feedback forum. Never posting there or lurking there probably doesn't help.

    Ticked off because there's a giant hypermarket near where I am at the moment (Poland somewhere) called Auchan, which I thought was a German company so I was pronouncing it ow-khan, but a friend told me this morning it's actually French and corrected my pronunciation, except now I've forgotten what she said it was and it's driving me batty.

    You've probably figured it out by now, but as far as I recall it's "oh-Shan" :)

    Food coma on a Friday :(

    Also, there is a point where I cross the road to take the luas where three roads cross through a junction. Every single morning without fail as I am walking down the road towards the pedestrian crossing, I could (in theory) cross the road diagonally to get across because the green man is up (I know he comes up after a particular set of cars goes through) but I cant see him because I am not at the lights yet and I can't f*cking hear him because of the noise of the cars driving past me so I don't want to take my life in my hands and cross without being really certain. By the time I get down the road far enough to see the lights/the cars that have sped through the lights have fecked off with their noisy engines, it's usually the amber man and I have to run across.

    I am also annoyed now reliving this TA, and equally annoyed at how long it took to explain and how I it makes so little sense even though in my head, it's really straight forward.

    I'm so tired, snapping that I said I'd play ball after work :/

    When people completely ignore a good question or observation you've asked in an email. If someone asked you something in reality you wouldn't just stare ahead and have no response.

    Friday night and happy to stay in.
    Pop to shops for something, and don't pick up any sugary goodness or treats.... only to get back home and wonder why the hell I didn't buy any nice stuff??!
    It's what I always said I'd do as a kid... to make sure there's treats in the house when I want, but I'm too lazy, or probably sensible, to get anyway!!
    Damn my old age sensibility!

    Was it just me of did President Obamas speech this morning (about the shooting over there, terrible) sound bad, he took pauses after single words, and two words,
    I don't think he said a full sentence in one go, was his ear piece not working and couldn't hear the guy telling him what to say or is there a reason for it?

    When a guy presses the button at a pedestrian crossing and just fcuks off up the road.

    Fcuker had no intention on crossing, im sat there in the creepmobile like a dickhead waiting for the lights to change.

    Fridge light blew. To be fair the light has been there since we bought the fridge years ago, but you end up taking for granted how easy it is to open the door and look inside without turning on other lights in the kitchen. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    ^^
    I only recently changed our fridge light as a present for my wife's birthday!

    When she opened the door, you should have seen her face light up...






    TA - too many films to watch and can't choose which one!

    In threads like the 'Countryside or City' thread, or something like 'foods you avoid', there's always a couple of posters pissing and moaning about what somebody else has posted.

    Why would you even give a crap about somebody else's preference?

    You know what really pïsses me off, arrogant gits complaining about other people drinking Starbucks. Fúck you, I'll drink what I want, and frappucinos are like liquid crack. You're not better than me just cause you take your coffee black. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,407 ✭✭✭Pac1Man


    I don't think you can be annoyed by natural bodily functions but I hate when you drink a small cup of tea and then piss about three litres. Shouldn't happen.

    Worst is when you're disturbed in your sleep because of that late cuppa :mad:

    Columbo solved a murder because the victim did that.

    I felt a bit cold today, even though it was a nice sunny day.
    I wore a jumper. Not particularly heavy, just nice and cosy.

    The amount of people who said "Jaysus are you not roasting in that?" or "What are you wearing a jumper for?" was unreal.
    I was cold, ok? Sorry if I didn't feel as warm as you. Sorry I've offended you.

    That's probably why they were killed

    'Elite Singles' ads at 11pm on a Saturday night.

    Seriously, just how many 'elite singles' are slumped on the sofa watching ITV on a Saturday night?
