...Aaaand the panic attacks are back again.
I really thought it was just an odd heart flutter here and there, small bit of frustration or whatever. But no, back to full swing anxiety and panic attacks every day. The annoyance is overwhelming.

I'm so ridiculously emotional that I cried with happiness when a random guy won 5 thousand euro on the radio this morning. What is wrong with me???

Trivially annoyed I had to google who Niall Boylan is:(. Not me !

He is a sh1t stirring knob jockey of the highest order, who I am convinced has his mates and relatives call his show with some made up stories.

Having to refresh the page just to get the "Thank" button to work.

Having to refresh the page because it looks all f*ckety.

Having my phone go apesh1t and close boards just because I tried to open a link in another window.

The fact that I still read boards on my phone even though it causes so many annoyances and eats up so much battery power.

Sure why would you be crying? Just buy a pack of those things advertised on TV, and you will be able to go swimming, play tennis, parachute from a plane, play the piano, surf, disco, climb mountains...all the while wearing your favourite white trousers. It's a doddle.

Ah now, in fairness, did you not read the warning on the container?

'WARNING: Contents will be hot when heated' :rolleyes:

(I hate those stupid disclaimers, like the 'Do not turn upside down' written on the bottom of the container...)

Those ads are one of the biggest annoyances of my life. That and the fact I have the worst timing in the world. Mine started during an exam today, was not impressed by the cramps :rolleyes:

castletownman · 16-12-2015 02:41PM

TA'd that I can't express my TA's about Christmas in public without being labelled as some sort of grinch.

I just made the point to my family that Xmas tv specials are generally ****e and of a worse quality than the show itself, and that the majority of TV around Christmas time is a load of poo-poo anyway (RTE are airing a doc on Panti Bliss and giving Al Porter his own show are just two examples). And they treated what I said as some sort of warped concotion of blasphemous and sacrilegious propaganda.

I had to put on ice my opinion on Christmas songs (over-saturated and get annoying quicker than regular tunes), and the over-commercialization and over-indulgence of the holiday period.

endofrainbow · 16-12-2015 02:52PM

People who refer to it as *the christmas* I mean just how many Christmases are there? you don't call it *the Easter* do you ?

Oh and radio ads where they depict Santa with a West Brit accent.

Feeling Bah Humbuggy today.

RiderOnTheStorm · 16-12-2015 03:13PM

ZIPS ..... i effen hate them! I have lost count of the number of them I have broken. There is a 50% chance every time I open or close one, that it will get stuck on some piece of fluff or thread, or the 2 sides to are not 10000% parallel and some tiny crease in the fabric means the zip will stall, and then I am faced with dilemma of just pulling a bit harder and risk breaking another zip, or un-zipping and trying again, and take the risk of looking like some with OCD who has to zip / unzip 57 times in case someone dies ....

I thought "the Christmas" was just shorthand-speak for "the Christmas holidays", as in "What are you doing for the Christmas holidays?" is shortened for "What are you doing for the Christmas?" , and that Q is different to "What are you doing for Christmas?". The "the holidays" can be anytime (of any duration) between middle of December and early Jan. Whereas "Christmas" is usually the couple of days around the 25th...... or so I thought.

Yup, def with you on this one!

This is mainly a mucksavage thing - I do it myself, and is a habit originally developed due to speaking English with an Irish accent, i.e. An Nollaig.

For me its the opposite, I can't stand button up jeans especially if you are busting for a slash.

People who insist that just because a film takes place at Christmas or has Christmas in it, its a Christmas film. I'm sorry but Die hard and Harry Potter aren't Christmas films they just have Christmas in it.

I understand people are sick of watching the same films over again but you don't have to watch them. Die hard is brilliant it should be watched all year round not just at Christmas

Fcuk Chris de Burgh and his ****ty spaceman song, it's poxy!
Even by Xmas song standards

Medusa22 · 16-12-2015 04:35PM

My lungs keep whistling every time I take a breath in, it's incredibly annoying to listen to.

So there's a battle against mannequin's in stores as it may set unrealistic images for girls, yet I've had to go around 5 sports stores today and the mannequins in the mens's section are built like He-Man.

Booked 3 cinema tickets

Booking details printed out, seats are K18, K16, K17

The fact they are in the wrong order is really pissing me off

OldNotWIse · 16-12-2015 05:10PM

My ball and chain has just announced plans to travel to her home country next year....which apparently may involve a visit from an ex. I'm so bored I can't even think of a plan of revenge to exact, and so tired that I am only mildly angry. I'm TA'd that I'm not angry.... Or something.
