    My TA for the day is people who don't put a divider down before plonking their shopping on the conveyor belt right behind someone else's shopping.

    Or when there's only a couple of dividers and the checkout person doesn't shove them down towards the end of the conveyor belt, so you have to squeeze past the people in front of you to get one. My local Lidl is the worst culprit for this. They can't seem to fathom that it's the people at the end of the conveyor that need the dividers the most. Eejits!

    Totally full pavements.

    Ok, I was walking from Grafton St to Westmoreland today. It was like hell on wheels.

    No room to walk at all. AT ALL. Choked almighty.

    Something has to be done here by god.

    Move to the countryside. I meet no-one for miles when walking.

    Electric prods should be legal.

    People have no spacial awareness in crowds.

    My OH is from the deep country, sorry but I went for a week there one DAY!

    I know cities are choked but Dublin is unreal for pedestrians now.

    This is the truth.

    Feck, I want to get from A to B, but there are so many morons in my way I get a bit miffed.

    But the pavements are so narrow compared with the size of the road!

    I don't believe that. I have been to the big smoke a few times and your footpaths are wider than most of our roads.

    You have roads??! You lucky bastards.

    We have to machete our way through the undergrowth to get anywhere.

    A most awful happening has occurred.

    I was very poor before Christmas and let my health insurance payments lapse. Yesterday I decided to do something about it. Turns out I have to serve a five year waiting period again :(

    Sad and afraid.

    Nooooooo :( Sorry to hear that.

    TA is that I couldn't find my Kindle lately, just found it, turns out I've been carrying it around in my handbag the past couple of weeks with no cover on it ... there is now a black blob on the screen. :( It's only small but sooo annoying.

    Ah I know. But there are too many millions in Dublin now, all walking down MY streets, it is unreal really. Choked I'm telling ya.

    I want the streets to be for me alone. lol.

    My flash player freaks out when I watch porn. It's absolutely grand for videos, Youtube, streaming, etc, but when I watch porn videos it's insanely slow, prone to crashing, cuts out, etc... It's infuriating, literally only happens with porn. I've had many an angry ****, where I just get fed up waiting for it load so I fap to my imagination instead, but in disappointment and frustration. :mad:

    TA'd when I see fellas with dyed pink hair! I'm all for individual styles but let's be honest, you just look like a flamin' eejit who's probably an SJW to the extreme.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,121 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    There I was peeling some spuds. And the knife went into my finger.

    I never saw so much blood in my life. But then again I survived and learned a lesson. Super Valu has ready made mash.

    Someone else can get a gash on their finger now. For a while anyway until I recover!

    I'm sure there is a back story to that comment.

    But me being such an innocent, I have to ask for an explanation now!

    Allow me.

    Kfallon means he would like his finger and a vagina to meet each other.

    Thank you lady x

    Is the blob something stuck on it or the screen has gone kind of funny?

    Me too, friend. When I get bored, my mind drifts to other things.

    My TA is that some apps make a sound despite my iPad being on mute.

    Nothing stuck on it, probably got banged off something in my bag. At least it's still functional!

    Another Kindle annoyance - when I go to read a book I've read before, and when I click into it it opens on the last page! I know I've already read it so I already know what happens, but it still ruins the whole experience slightly for me!

    I'm in the early stages of looking for a house to buy.

    Price on Fúcking Application* should be banned from estate agents' listings. I don't go into Aldi and have to bring all my stuff to the till before they tell me how much it costs.

    Also, people advertising sites for sale with a picture of a house on the ad (this is what it could look like, if you have another 200k or so lying around, on top of the listing price) should be forced to build you the house for that price.

    All I want to do is quickly look for houses in my (tiny) price range. Grrr. :mad:



    * Feel free to make naughty puns at my expense.

    I'm looking at cheap properties on Daft so I'm entering €150,000 as the max price. First entry on the results page is a POA mansion property with an granny flat bigger than my parents house along with 3 outer buildings on an acre of land.

    This thread has gotten too chatty lately.
    This thread has gotten too bloggy lately.
    This thread has some some borderline medical/health advice creeping into it.

    This is a place to list your annoyances rather that blog what you are doing day to day and chatting about it. Chat threads are not allowed in AH.
    Lets keep the the 'TA's', for example, that Boom_Bap is a stickler for the rulez.

    This is a classic, so I'm sure it's been said many times.

    When you go to the supermarket to buy a bottle of water and come back with a bag of crisps, a chocolate bar, chewing gum, toilet gel, bacon, pasta, a vegetable peeler and......no water. Had to go back again. :(

    Finding mould on my McCambridges Brown Bread after I have eaten a slice and having to throw out half the pack.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,660 ✭✭✭armaghlad


    Men that drive minis.

    One of the slight perks of rush hour is checking out the mini drivers when the traffic is queued.

    I expect to see a wee stun hun or princess, not some tech nerd behind the wheel :/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,891 ✭✭✭✭Hugo Stiglitz


    My TA is that those little compressed cans of deodorant just suck. You get about 12 short little sprays out of them before the fragrance vanishes from the pitiful spray.

    TA that I have become a cyclist. Do I now have to retract all the nasty things I have said about cyclists over the years?

    **Dont get too excited ladies, I am not taking to wearing spandex. Soz.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Nope, even when you are a cyclist there are plenty of other cyclists who behave like absolute bellends - red light jumping, doing stupid things in traffic, riding on pavements etc.

    TA'd that I need to clean my kitchen but getting off my couch seems like such an effort...
