Trivial things that annoy you part 479

TA that the annoying gremlin shyte is back on Boards.ie. I can't quote posts, I can't see my own posts to just check that I actually posted and it seems almost impossible to get to the last page of a thread. No doubt I'll probably have to refresh the page about 20 times and click in and out of the thread, just to be sure this actually posted.:(

The last page of posts on most threads is still turning into the one before it for me. It's happening the most with this thread though. Now the TA thread is becoming a TA

The worst, and I mean the worst, is when you type out a really, really long, waffly reply that's probably going nowhere but there's a point in there somewhere, and press the "Post reply" button -

"You cannot reply to a post you cannot see"

Well fcuk you from a height! :mad:

The over-obtrusiveness of the media exposure in the Irish rugby camp. I don't know about anyone else, but this is meant to represent Ireland's best ever chance of winning the damn thing, so it almost hints at unprofessional how regular footage is emerging "behind-the-scenes". I for one couldn't give a feck about how "hilarious" Paddy Jackson is. Would be more concerned about him practising his kicking should he be called upon to kick a vital one if Sexton goes off injured.

I mean the English team got flak at the last World Cup for acting the bollix off the field, but it seems that Ireland are perhaps a bit laissez-faire so far themselves, which maybe explains their rustiness last day out against Italy.

Although perhaps they are enjoying the fun while it lasts as they are fully aware of the tide of critcism that is sure to come their way as soon as they inevitably come a cropper against France and the All Blacks.

The misuse of "decimate" always annoys me.

Instead of clicking on the page number of the thread, just click on the '>', if you haven't already. Worked anytime I tried it (after being diverted to the second last page on a few different threads).

People who use acronyms and then repeat the last word in that acronym.

Examples

- I need to find an A.T.M. machine

- I have to pay my D.I.R.T. tax

Dawson Street roadworks. There is one side of the road completely blocked off to pedestrians and the other side is packed with people trying to move in both directions. Cue awkward side shuffles, barging into the backs of strangers, stepped toes and a very T/A'd boardsie

TA'd that every time there's a pet thread the fcukwitted cat haters come out in force, we get it, you don't like cats, so fcuk off with your nasty bullcrap already.:mad:

Do not drag annoyances from other threads into this one.

People that bring babies into the office.

No I don't need to hear your screaming crying brat when I'm trying to get some work done.

Congratulations on the sex btw... ugh.

OldNotWIse · 08-10-2015 02:33PM

I spent a lot of money I could ill-afford on makeup. First, I said I wouldn't. Then I felt hard done by and the chatterbox started - "you spend sixty euro on cat food but you wont buy yourself nice makeup?", "you'd spend it in the vets if your dog so much as looked crooked", "you do xy & z for your parents/OH". So I thought feck it, I'll splash out.

Now I feel guilty.

My cats will starve :eek:

My parents will end up on the street :eek::eek:

The OH will be going to work naked :eek::eek::eek:

There'll be no food for the babbies :eek::eek::eek::eek:

At least I'll look pretty though

That's the main thing. At least you'll look pretty. And the cats will starve.

(Sorry, FelineOverLord!)

Paddy Power's marketing department. Some of the stuff they put out is cringe inducing and it's not half as witty as they think it is. You get the impression that there's a lot of youngish unfunny Irish guys suggesting ideas at their brainstorming sessions.

In the car...sun shining...pull down both sun visors...sun goes in between them above the mirror...fcuk off sun.

One eyed Jack · 08-10-2015 03:15PM

I really can't get used to this 40 posts per page layout at all, it's so bloody long it takes aaaages to scroll through and I begin to lose interest very quickly.

Any time it came up, people said it's great. I think the 20 posts per page is just more comfortable for reading

Very trivial, but annoying nonetheless

Not to mention the super airbrushed look she has when advertising for cosmtic brand Lancome which gave us the feckin complex in the first place

I dont mind when anyone is making a living and is made up/airbrushed/filtered to within an inch of their lives(be they male or female)on an ad or in a movie etc. We all pretty much know by now that NOBODY genuinely, really looks like that without help. She looks fabulous in those ads. But then again, so would you and I if we had all of what she had to get there

My TA with it was, it was a photo of herself, put up by herself, with her own words on it.
And it was complete and utter lies.
"Oooo, look at me......I'm so naturally beautiful from the inside that I glow on the outside and can show my face without makeup coz I'm amazing"

I've no time for that attitude, it sucks imo(I have a very low bullsh1t threshold

)

Haha i know Smidge! She doesnt really bother me at all but i was just joking how on one hand shes giving advice about natural beauty and on the other selling unnatural beauty but then again she managed to make a relationship between a poor struggling prostitute and a rich pompous punter seem really romantic and happy ever after in Pretty Woman so she does have a knack for those types of things

Some ad popped up on a site I was just on and instead of a standard "no thanks " button to clear it, I had to click one that said, "no thanks, new ideas make me feel uncomfortable". F*ck off :mad:

That's like when Ryanair makes you check a box saying you'll travel uninsured because you don't buy it from them!
