    drivers overtaking on the motorway who leave it until the last second to move to the passing lane and then cut in right in front of you. it happens all the time here, even if there's only the two cars on the road. and even in wet conditions.

    And then pull in to take a slip road about 100 yrds ahead the ass*oles.

    Yesterday I was driving in the middle lane of the m50 and there was this fella/muppet ahead of me.
    There was a massive gap (400 yards perhaps) between him and the car in front- and this gap is getting larger.
    He was going well under the limit at about 80 KPH and the traffic in the passing lane was flying bye at about 100-110.
    But this muppet is sitting there with his indicator on to go in to the passing lane and is not attempting to get up to the right speed. Never mind the ever increasing 400 yard gap to the car ahead of him.
    AND the numpty starts beeping at the cars in the passing lane for not letting him in!

    Honest to God I felt like Ramming him. No judge in the country would convict me.

    I always post about this. Shoppers in a trance at the shelves like some religious epiphany has shone its divine light upon them as they peruse the varying differences between toilet roll and toilet roll. Spaced out of it and wandering aimlessly through the aisles unaware of others around them that might actually need to access products.
    You are NOT Britney and Justin in the cinema closed especially for you.

    Not eating regularly during the day then being unable to stop eating cereal straight from the box in great big fistfuls. Just one more. This is the last one now. OK really this time I've had enough. *hand reaches for box for the 10th time*

    My cough makes me sound like an old man who has been smoking for 40 years.

    The cough medicine I bought is absolutely delicious. I'm annoyed that I can only have some 3-4 times a day. :p

    The dryer turned my work trousers into a wrinkly mess. I suppose I should buy an iron!

    The word "stunhun" seems to be making a comeback on Facebook:

    "Happy birthday stunhun, lov dis pic of ya!"

    "Ah stop, de onli stunhun is you!"

    6 hours later....

    "Headin out fer me burtday wit dese 2 stunhuns. #lookinunreal"

    Comment: "Hav a gr8 nite ye stunhuns ye."

    - that non word just makes me cringe. And twitch. And groan. And want to strangle something. And pluck my eyebrows :p (which I actually have time for today. No more Oscar brows for me.)

    I set off every smoke alarm in the house cooking breakfast earlier. No amount of flapping a towel around would help, so I had to open windows, and the door. Thereby letting in the freezing cold, and alerting the neighbours that I was burning something again :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,572 ✭✭✭Colser


    Lashed on moisturiser all over and went to walk across the room,nearly broke my neck from a huge slip but managed to stay upright..hate the fright you get when you nearly fall.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    Went in to town this morning and had a lovely breakfast and wander around. Then decided to go to a cafe on Dawson st that I have been to a few times...walk all the way over there to discover that it is closed down.
    Ended up in Starbucks instead...double TA!

    Hate that. It's the same with tripping. I always get a sharp pain in my face when I almost trip over. Like my face hurts in anticipation of being flattened against the ground.

    After seeing some poxy ad for a soft toy with a flashlight in it's belly, ideal for easing kids fear of the dark, the youngest is insisting she is afraid of the dark. Feck's sake, what next ?

    Will you stop with all that home cooking,making me feel guilty offering cereal and toast:p

    People who finish shower gels ect and dont replace them so you have to get out dripping wet(another slipping hazard:pac:) and get a new one..replace toilet rolls too please dont leave empty ones on the hanger and just new one put up on the window sill.

    Empty pockets before putting clothes for wash and DONT wrap dark jocks and socks up in a white tshirt as it drives the laundry fairy insane.

    If youre unsure if the clothes youve thrown on the ground are clean or dirty dont be a lazy git and throw them for the wash because its easier than actually checking them.

    Dont leave dirty wet smelly football boots in the gear bag.Dont trail that fcuking Astroturf around the whole house.

    Check if theres someone in the other shower BEFORE you start your one because the tripswitch knocks the other one out and Im in there covered in suds.

    Give me strength Lord:(

    My 15yr old is a lazy mare. Quite often, rather than put clean clothes away, she throws them back into the wash along with her dirty ones. And then complains she has nothing to wear. I'll be had up for murder yet :(

    At least then you won't have to worry about replacing the shower gels in the communal showers either, you'll be more worried about dropping the soap! :pac:

    The mental images... too much! :D

    TA now they're going to be in my head all day, I won't get a stroke of work done! :pac:

    Im looking for that thread for people with "simple" questions about computers and i cant find it anywhere. If I dont sort the slowness on this laptop soon it will go through the window.
    Every time I move on here a load of stuff comes up in the bottom left corner eg waiting for cache or 5 edge chat and transferring this that and the fecking other..it takes for ages:(

    You really need to make friends with a computer techie.

    Everyone should be able to count a computer techie, a plumber, an electrician and a handy man amongst their friends!

    Well I have 3 out of 4 of them:p

    Now I'm ever so slightly annoyed at the fact that I don't know which three you mean, and if there's a techie among 'em, I'd hate to be so presumptuous (like that's really ever stopped me before? :p), but sure if you want to throw it out there whatever the problem is and we could all have a look at it :D

    Also quite annoyed right now that I just took off the plaster from donating blood the other night too (split the crotch in my trousers, still hopped up on the table, not too sure the guy across from me with the birds eye view was all that grateful :pac:), and there's quite a nice little bruise at the injection site with some discoloration. I know it'll wear off but still, annoyingly trivial! :p

    Making awkward eye contact with a guy on the screen of a phone that is being carried around by this other guy who is video chatting with him and swinging the phone all over the place while he walks around the shopping centre, not really minding where he's going and almost bumping into me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,821 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    Is "meet your sister" or "here's your sister" a new expression?

    E.G:
    "Jesus I'm dying of a hangover. I'm in bits."
    Friend: "Meet your sister."
    I says: "What?"
    She says: "It means I'm in the same boat as ya!"

    Since then I've heard it quite a lot lately.

    I don't know why but my God it actually irritates the hell out of me.
    I can't explain it...I just hate that expression now!

    'I'm happy out' is an expression that really annoys me, it seems to have replaced, among others, 'so that's alright'. I can understand it if you're happy about something, but your location -in or out or over or whatever- really doesn't make much of a difference - so, if you were stuck in the house, would you be any happier/sadder? Grrrrrrr.
