    Sorry I can't help, but perhaps KatW4 can lend you one of her fluffy jumpers...


    You can chose from 3 different types ;)

    TA - I got some new navy jeans and the dye is coming off on my hands. I have blue hands and a blue face. I look ridiculous.

    I have blue skin and fluffy jumpers made from cat hair. When will I be normal? :O

    Ads for electronic cigarettes on TV

    Advertising combustible nicotine consumption = bad

    Advertising electronic nicotine consumption = no problem

    Being tormented by bad thoughts and fear, and knowing there'll probably never be a solution to it.

    Not a trivial thing really, don't know why I'm posting, sorry.

    Speaking of... well, not incontinence at least, but sitting here in the doctors waiting room. If there's ever a last place you want to be, and yes, I know there are worse places I could be, but that doesn't make me feel any better about having to be sitting here, right now.

    Some people don't like the dentist, I love going to the dentist, instant results, coming out with a sparkly set of chompers. Going to the doctor - take these and if they don't work, call me again in two weeks :mad:

    Honestly though, I'm lucky I have a brilliant doctor, and I consider him a good friend that I can talk to about anything. I still hate going to see him though! :pac:

    The fact that my mother gave up her job when they adopted my brother and never went back. So my poor dad had to work twice as hard all his life and is still doing the odd job even though he is not able for it, while she sits at home doing the poor mouth at every opportunity and having a go at him over money. He drove a taxi for a couple of years and sometimes he'd come in after a night driving around and hand over what he had earned and she'd say, "is that all you got?" :mad: urgh....... the rage, I mean...trivial annoyance :P But then sometimes I am trivially annoyed by the fact that he facilitated her lazy áss behavior too. And then I get annoyed thinking about all the lovely money I hand over every week to fund their mortgage, knowing that if she had worked, there feckin well wouldn't be money owing on it. God damn :( I'm more annoyed now than I was when I started my post :(:(

    Young-ish women with small children in grocery stores. Specifically, the sort of young-ish woman who treats the chore that is grocery-shopping as Quality Family Time, and brings the two-year-old and the hapless, helpless ape of a husband with her. The child doesn't want to be there, and spends the entire duration having suitable conniptions, up to and occasionally including bawling so hard she makes herself vomit, and the husband isn't too far behind her only doesn't say so. What is this about? Wouldn't it make rather more sense for one of them to stay at home with the child while the other nips out to grab the groceries? Wouldn't that be considerably more pleasant and productive for all concerned, including the public at large? But no, it has to be the full production, trundling through the place like an Australian road-train, My Child, My Husband, My Busy, Fulfilled Life, My Arse. Fcuk you, ma'am. Just fcuk you.

    People who cite their age or the age of the person they are representing in an attempt to add leverage to their complaint.

    For example, "my 87 year old father went into your shop and was treated very badly" - why is it necessary to point out his age? It is wrong that any customer who goes into a shop is treated badly, and their age doesn't make this more wrong.

    I know it's bad but if someone starts a conversation with me and mentions their or anyone else's age it instantly gets my back up.

    Q102's relentless fúcking playing of Hozier. Relentless!!! I don't even listen to it all the time, but any time I do, they are playing him so I can only imagine how much they play him over the course of a day.

    Also, when you go into a toilet cubicle and there is nobody else in the bathroom and you make some noises you wouldn't normally make if you were in company, so things like talking to yourself/humming/letting rip and then....then....AFTER you've been there for a minute some sneaky fúcker makes a noise and you realise they have been in the cubicle beside you all along. WTF are they doing sitting there all quiet like creeps?? Then you have to run out and wash your hands in a hurry and get out before they do because your staff badge is at the sink and if they come out of their cubicle before you, they'll know it was you and most annoying of all....you will never know who they were..... mind-bend....

    I hate coming out of a cubicle and meeting a colleague there when washing hands.

    Small talk? What do you say?
    "Sounded like you had a great poo there...curry for tea last night?"...

    Haha, I hate this too. Sometimes I loiter in the cubicle after I'm done so I don't have to talk to them.

    If I'm particularly snarly I'll come out with something like, "well there's no hierarchy of grades when it comes to taking a dump" :P

    I'm one of those creepy people lurking in the toilets, I used to do it a lot on my lunch break in work or when I was in college. Sometimes I just want a moment to myself where nobody can talk to me or annoy me at all, and even being in a cafe or a restaurant isn't enough solitude for me, so I'd sneak off to the toilet and lock myself in the cubicle and listen to some music or browse the internet on my phone, for a bit of peace.

    Road works, esp the signs left up after the work is done, telling drivers that there are temp traffic lights ahead, or no road markings ..... when there isnt!

    Worse are the signs & cones reducing road to one lane (and no roadworks!) when there would be 2 lanes if the signs were not there! The bloody signs are making it 1 lane!!

    Family members who believe in conspiracy theories. They can't be avoided like regular, non-family nutbags.

    Ordinarily, they aren't especially stupid. They can hold down a job and pay for rearing a family. In this particular case, a divorce, a new partner and a fairly elaborate second wedding too. This makes their intellectual deficits all the more insidious, as much for the time spent doubting yourself when you are inevitably drawn into debating them. After which point, you realise that they are more stupid than you previously thought, but your will to live has been thoroughly tested and you'll never get back those few hours. You leave the room wishing Mossad actually was outside ready to ' take him off the grid '.

    Seven days in a week, two weeks in a fortnight. 7+2=9, and eleven players on a soccer team, see where this is going.....:D
