Shop assitants in the likes of Brown Thomas etc who walk around the shop like they designed the clothes and look down their nose at you. Though they are on minimum wage and a glorified hanger of clothes.. ****!!!

When I was younger they intimidated me. Now when they ask if they can help, I just say no.

Throwing change on the counter for a shop assistant/barman etc. when paying is a sure sign of a c*nt.

I'm sure this has been mentioned but it happened to me this morning.

On the train and some school kid gets on beside me, I'm listening to a podcast and all of a sudden I can hear him playing videos on his phone at near full volume (I saw him adjust the sound once).

I was kind of annoyed with myself that I wasn't saying anything...until the third video. I asked him if he could "Turn that down a bit". The lad looks at me, doesn't say a word, stands up and goes to another seat 20 yards away.

I hate this type of selfishness and ignorance to those around you. No apology, nothing. Just goes off and (presumably) plays his videos elsewhere.

I was disappointed not to find hipster porn in that link. I'd quite like to see a hipster couple have sex in their skinny jeans, because obviously penetrative sex is for twats and Northsiders. Or maybe a hipster girl f*ck herself with a bottle of craft beer.

Likewise in the reverse.

Also, men in their 50s and 60s who love rugby but hate football fans. I've shared pubs with these toilet brushes during football matches and rugby matches.

Some of them - and I'm thinking about three specific blokes in my local here - are just snobby, hypocritical dickheads who give you daggers if you're equally as passionate about, say, Liverpool as they are with Leinster. I've seen them during rugby matches. It's F this. F that. F off touch judge you F'ing peasant. But mention the F word during football and you're scum to them.

At least they support an Irish team

That's not the point though, is it?

That reminds me.

People who go around saying "That's not the point though, is it?"

Did you not refer to them as "snobby hypocritical dickheads". Kind of equates to '****' in my book, so why be surprised if they see you in the same light.

However you ARE right, who you support is not the issue, my apologies.

sure this type was mentioned before but the 'i went to austraila/america etc type'

could not give a toss where you went tbh lol

Never understood why people have about four thousand f*cking hashtags under an Instagram picture (that's attached to their Facebook page) - #girl #selfie #hair #makeup #eyes #nose #lips #fitness #irishfitfam #imawanker etc...

A set of golf clubs just inside the front door.

Not proper players at all, If they were members they'd have a locker at the clubhouse.

It's so they can share their picture with more people, #obviously.

Got cheap membership during the recession. Allowed them to upgrade from membership of the taxi and bus drivers amalgamated pitch and putt union.

Herb Powell · 01-12-2015 06:46PM

People who get overexcited about US chains opening here.

It's pure "Look at me, I've been to America!" bollocks.

fryup · 01-12-2015 07:10PM

people who roll their eyes and scoff at you for daring to give a differing opinion than theirs

Are you a rugby fan who thinks they're better than football fans? If so it would explain your defensiveness, but you need only be reminded of the fact I used the word "some" rugby fans. I'm not tarring you's all with the same brush based on those three old 'tutting' bastards in my local.

Defensiveness!

Hmmm could take a look at yourself there,pal.

Not a rugby fan in the strict sense of the word.

By the way, do those 3 auld bastards stink the kip out with fetid garlicky farts or something?

Might fully explain you animosity

Singn of a complete wanker...
They mention about 10 times that they read the book when you are talking about a film or tv series.
