When someone continuously keeps texting/ringing you AFTER you've told them to stop, and ignored the calls. The dope STILL can't get the message!!

I overheard my new neighbour telling another neighbour she "quite fancied some high trees at the end of her garden."
Cheers. Just what I need; less sunlight. :mad:

I could have put this TA with my previous one but I can't be ar*ed to edit.

The mid-Atlantic, Americany accent more and more people are adopting these days.

I was in the gym today and overheard a woman say to another:

"What shall we have for lanch today?"
"Ooh well I've got some turkey on the bowne and bran bread. We could have thash with some tomasho and bayzil soup?"
"Ooh sounds gorgeous."
"Yah, new Rachel Allen recipe. I love her cooking; she's just so relayshable."
"Roysh, must borrow thash from you when you're done."
"No worries. Roysh are we ready for the off? I am so exhausted from that spin. Even my tews hurt!"

I wanted to turn around and smack them both in the gob.
Every word was over-exaggerated and had an American twang. I can't even properly portray it here, but you get what I mean.

Do you mean DART speak? Or should that be Dorsh speak? The stops from Sydney Parade to Bray are brilliant/terrible for it.

In fairness, you made a damn good job of it all the same, phonetics and all

I've often wondered when I'm watching her programme, what the hell is the woman on, that her elocution is so mangled? It's like watching someone in a hallucinogenic state the way she goes on!

Light bulbs.

Needed some for the living room so thought I would get some of the LED ones, have seen them for about 7 euro in the shops. It wasnt as easy as I was expecting.
We have one of those things that require 3 bulbs and has a dimmer switch. Turns out the LED lights which are suitable for dimmers are around 20 each, not too bad if you just want the one, when you need 3 for 1 room it becomes more of a problem.
Then theres choosing the shape and brightness.

I did. Ouch! My condolences. Sounds far from trivial!

strelok · 27-10-2015 10:09PM

ah mine's only a baby one, some of the ones on google look horrendous.

fussyonion · 27-10-2015 10:13PM

I had one of those, sterlok. One of the most painful things ever.
Worse was when they were packing the post-op wound with wads of cotton wool.

im just hoping it goes away, or at least goes more dormant, soon. packing the wound 1-2 times a day for weeks really does not sound like fun

If it's not that big, the best piece of advice I can give you is to keep that area as dry as you can, make sure there are no loose hairs getting stuck there and try not sit/stand too wide apart if you know what I mean.
That can make it open wider and make it more sore and raw.

Does anyone's fingers sting when cutting tomatoes or do i have weird fingers? I burnt my roll too whilst being stung to death by tomatoes.

justchecked · 27-10-2015 11:04PM

Food packets that say serves 4.

Yeah 4 pygmy models on diets maybe.

Uncle Bens boil in a bag rice. On the box it says that 1 bag serves 2 people. I have 2 bags for myself.

Try peeling and slicing up a butternut squash. Strips a layer of skin right off your hands.

Comfy and warm in bed but need to go pee!!! Own fault for drinking a pint of water while reading.

The new mcdonalds pulled pork wrap ad, with the girl making wraps with a smug look on her face

KatW4 · 28-10-2015 12:44AM

My bf said he'd be finished playing the Playstation in 10 minutes. That was 45 minutes ago. The git. Worst part is that it's that farm game yet he is a farmer and spends all day doing the work in real life. Haha I don't understand boys at all!

rosie16 · 28-10-2015 08:28AM

Starving since half 6 and that's why you shouldn't have a sandwich for dinner. I usually don't get hungry this early at all. Made scrambled eggs and felt sick at the smell of melted butter. Can't win.

The OH is on nights for the first time in ages this week. The little one was awake till 11.30 because Daddy wasn't there. I had to go into the teenager after 2am to tell her to get off her phone. I'm awake listening to him snoring and fidgeting since he came in at 6.30 this morning. She is usually up after 7 but still snoozing now. When she does get up I have to try keep her quiet so he can sleep. My mother is looking for me to go and collect her, said she will be ready for 10, and the eldest needs a lift to the Cork bus. Oh, and there's a hospital appointment sometime in the afternoon too. I'm thinking of running away:(

I was making coffee and was open the window blind, I pull the string down then wrestle with it to try get it to stay down. I look down and I have dropped about 30cm of the end of the string into my coffee.

Perfectly trivially annoying start to the day.

Whitewinged · 28-10-2015 09:01AM

Went outside to put the fake spider web decorations on the windows for Holloween and after taking a close look, they have quite a few real webs. Now i have to clean the real webs away in order to put fake ones up!

Sunshineboo · 28-10-2015 09:27AM

Pigeons getting in my way on my walk to work and almost flying directly in my face, No boundaries!!

Neverforgotten · 28-10-2015 09:30AM

I have realised one of my trivial annoyances is
Typos. Even typos in the subtitles on TV drive me mad. ( I am currently waiting for an appointment so spotting the typos on Ireland Am to pass the time)
