    People who eat "clean".

    As in people who say the word clean in relation to their diet? Or people who actually eat healthily?

    People who use the term "clean" in relation to their diet. Hence the quotation marks. Why would I think people who at healthily are w*nkers? :)

    Yeah, I guess I was thinking about warning signs if you are out with someone. First dates and that :) Lots of people appear nice but are rude to staff because they think they can get away with it, and at a later date you realise how nasty they are.
    Yeah, people can somehow think it looks intelligent, cool or attractive or something to be pointlessly condescending/rude to a waiter/waitress/similar.

    He could have had enough respect for the barista to give his real name and not something insultingly sarcastic. As we know, taking the piss out of service staff is verboten and is acting like a wanker. :D

    Who knows, perhaps his name was actually Hamlet and I'm being harsh, therefore it's his parents who are the ****.

    There's one actually. Parents who name their kids with 'pop cultural/fashion/sport' inspired names.

    e.g.

    Well hipster = wanker
    So if his name is Hamlet then that makes his parents ****
    Which would make him a second generation thoroughbred Wanker

    Tbf, any time I'm overtaken dangerously on the motorway, it's usually some cünt in an Audi and it tends to colour my opinon of Audi drivers in general.

    Yeah, that's being fair.

    Totally fair. That's why I can justify sticking potatoes up their exhausts.

    Right...so he's not just a wanker, he's an unfunny wanker

    People who wear Kilkenny tops everyday of the god damn year.

    It's only ok to wear "your team" clothes continously if you are a professional and therefore seen to be representing your club at all times.

    Or if you feel like it.

    But those are the only two reasons.

    Is it just Kilkenny tops?

    Can I get away with strutting around wearing Mayo tops 24/7/365?

    The person in front of you stops at the FIRST petrol pump leaving the pump in front of them free and me fuming behind them. ****:mad:

    I often do wonder about these people. How did they get so far in life? i.e. they actually passed a driving test and they own a car. But yet they are so dim they cannot make a simple A or B decision.

    A = If I park here it will block the vacant pump in front of me
    free and possibly cause a queue of traffic in petrol station.

    B = If I drive to the vacant pump nearer the filling station shop, this will
    allow two cars to fill up with petrol at the same time and will actually
    mean less of a walk to pay for their fuel.

    But a substantial amount of people still pick option A. WTF?

    Nah, ye can't just feel like wearing a gaa top every day. In my view its an "I'm from kilkenny and i loves me GAA" beacon. Struttin around other counties like a great fella, like they are part of something special. As if they're a member of some prestigious clan in the upper echelons of society when in fact if you tried to say hello to tommy Walsh in the street he'd probably just continue picking his nose....

    Mayo is alright though.

    Dim as this...

    T-shirts with gas slogans....

    If found return to the pub

    Gas stuff like that, proof that the person wearing it is great fun and has a tremendous sense of humour.

    Also, I've noticed the majority of motorists when entering a busy forecourt sit back at the entrance waiting to see which becomes available first blocking motorists behind from also entering the forecourt. This really ****ing bugs me. Just pick a pump and let others in.

    asking for things in a demanding way with no 'please' or 'thank you''. eg barging into a deli counter ''gis a chicken fillet roll.....''

    being too forward and overly familiar with people you've just met, acting like you've known them for years through ''jokes'' and not bothering to make a good first impression. if they start insulting you within minutes of meeting you, bad sign.

    People who wear gaa jerseys when they're on holidays. To go along with that, Irish people who go to Irish bars when on holidays abroad "cause they are great craic"........clowns.

    If it's quiet i often pick A.

    Reasoning being, signage is often ****ing terrible, and its nothing short of infuriating to go to pump 2 and see that its gas oil or some other bull****, and not the diesel you wanted. By the time you've found this out, the spot behind you is full and you have to loop around and try again.
    More often that not, i just say **** these idiots, i'm going to the next station.

    I don't get this, just as many Irish people wear Irish or provincial rugby jersey's when abroad but according to boards.ie it's only embarrassing when it's people in GAA jerseys.

    Get some lenses sunshine, you obviously have a problem with your eyesight if you cant see that you look like a fu(king tosser!

    As someone with sever myopia and astigmatism, this annoys me. I wonder if they think spending thousands on contact lenses, cleaning solution, eye drops, prescription glasses, prescription sunglasses, checkups, eye hospital bills when you burn your eyes with hydrogen peroxide.... as glamorous as their fake f*cking glasses.

    People who think being hungover or telling people they are is some kind of statement about having a great personality and being fun to be around.

    Does this actually happen?

    I've never come across it & quite frankly wouldn't understand it if I did :confused:
