    People constantly complaining they are 'absolutely wrecked' or 'soooo tired' all the f*cking time.

    Drives me soft. 99% of the time its because they didn't get 8 hours sleep.

    Absolutely wrecked... what in the f*ck does that actually mean??

    Wrecked from what?

    There's something that I more than likely need to go out for today.

    But I can hear it bucketing down rain really heavy today.

    Even the post just came in through the door very wet.

    Well my baby is teething and won't sleep for longer than two hours at a time if I'm lucky. She tends to wake just at the moment that I am falling into a deep sleep. I'm like a walking zombie. I'm absolutely wrecked. Hope I'm not TA'ing you but you did ask! :p

    Teetha is your best friend is you are not familiar with it!

    I'm annoyed that my young lad was up and dressed this morning when I woke up. I'm normally the first awake and I have a routine for annoying him to wake him up. I'll just have to double the effort tomorrow morning.

    People giggling at every line during 'Brooklyn' in the cinema

    Lovely, lyrical film (but not especially funny) - ruined by people sniggering!

    Really enjoyed it otherwise though. Saoirse was fantastic.

    I hate people who laugh out loud or express any kind of outward emotion in the cinema. You can f*ck off to the pantomime if you want to behave like that! :mad:

    Snow forecast tonight and now I have to figure out how to convince the neighbours to let me take their dog inside for the night. Or possibly just sneak her away.

    Went for an interview yesterday and was asked "how would you deal with an irate customer"...Is it wrong that i wanted to say "tell them to f*** off and hang up on them" ?????

    As opposed to what?

    Reasons behind actions and behaviours rather than focusing purely on the actions and behaviours themselves.

    Trying to get an understanding of what's in a person's head that's leading them to behave how they are, not just focusing purely on their behaviours.

    Lots of things. There are reasons behind behaviours and I continually see how different things could be if we focused a little more on reasons rather than purely behaviours.

    Thanks for clearing that up. I agree.

    No worries. Sorry I was so unclear first time round. I was annoyed by a few more recent examples of it, but didn't wanna end up going on a rant :D

    My wonderful child has acquired a new bed time habit, no matter what time she goes to sleep she will wake up at 4am, proceed to lie with her feet on the headboard and kick it repeatedly and loudly over and over again while roaring "Help me, mommy!" coupled with random quotes from her favourite tv shows.

    She will keep at this until she falls back to sleep anywhere from ten minutes to (as you can see it being 6am) two hours.

    When I go into her, she will refuse to come out of cot or she will wait until we've done the whole getting up for the day thing before nodding off on the couch or crying to go back to sleep. So I have no choice but to ignore her and lie awake listening to this ****eology and thank my lucky stars that I actually hate my neighbour so at least he's suffering too as her room is next to his.

    Yeah, FML. 😢

    Oh and I forgot, she will always ALWAYS fall asleep the wrong way round in the cot on top of the bedclothes, so like an eedjit, I have to stay awake to get up when she does fall asleep and put her right way round and under the covers, so my precious baby wont get cold and wake up.

    This post reminded me to take my pill :D

    Only joking, can't wait for kids. Love this post :)

    My own laziness is annoying me today...I really should get out of the house but it is so warm and comfy..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,707 ✭✭✭whatismyname


    Needing to ring a person about a thing, but not wanting them to think that I'm hassling them about the thing.

    Leave a voicemail, then text, possibly email, maybe even drive around their house and sit outside trying to decide whether to call in or not.

    Nothing weird about any of that, right?

    If you had no legs, would you put a photo (or let someone else ) of yourself
    On FB and ask for 9999 likes and a "if you scroll and don't type amen you are a bastard" quote.

    Wouldn't even waste the energy telling them to fcuk right off tbh. I detest that sort of shyte! :mad:

    Trivially annoying that I'm only catching up on the thread now after being in meetings all morning, and then they tried to schedule another one for tonight, I had to tell them in the most polite way possible that won't be happening.

    Annoying that I had to do that because I don't like having to turn people down, but then they seem to think that's a licence to take the piss altogether! I have them down on the list to get them a saddle for Christmas, get up on me altogether ffs! :pac:

    :pac:

    My OH is German and the blank stare that
    I get when I say "oh so and so is behind you", wanting the panto response and not getting it because she's never been to a pantomime. I've explained to her that the correct response is "oh no, he's not" but she refuses to humour me! :p

    Whenever my housemate comes into my room, there is always a specific reason. He knocks, we talk bull**** for a while and just before leaving he goes, "Oh hey, by the way..." then he talks about what he really came into me for. Its so transparent at this stage, I wish he'd just spit it out straight away.

    Parents refusing to allow their adult children to grow up and insisting on undermining them at every juncture. Urgh :mad:

    Items on amazon that dont ship to ireland.

    Yeah ok i know were 2nd rate nobodies and all, and im used to that but youre in the uk.

    Its so fking close we had iodine capsules.

    But they'll ship it to NI. When you live in Donegal it is even more annoying, just leave on the border and I'll go pick it up myself.
