Not The Trivial things that make you happy

All Hail President Murphy · 27-02-2014 12:25pm #1

Following on from the trivial things that annoy you, I hope we can start a thread on trivial things that make you happy.

I love pushing the button for the lift and the doors open right away.

Being able to walk straight down an escalator or up it without people standing in the way.

Being bale to sail down the driving lane and use the passing lane without lane-hoggers or slow drivers.

A good thread on boards.ie

when the bus is there as soon as i arrive at the bus stop or train as soon as I arrive at the platform.

when the parking spot that I usually park in in the local shopping centre is free.

What makes you happy??

A big poo.

Merkin · 27-02-2014 12:30pm

Traffic lights turning green on approach

A child's laughter

Beer

I love the signs of spring, new buds on plants.

Sunshiny days, like today.

27-02-2014 12:38pm

Sunshine on a rainy day

When the straw on my juice box goes in perfectly first time.

MrStuffins · 27-02-2014 12:39pm

Toast! With real butter!

Dravokivich · 27-02-2014 12:40pm

My girlfriend used to say when a child cries. So I got her one. She's changed her mind since.

bogwalrus · 27-02-2014 12:43pm

When I wake up in the morning and catch my girlfriend just out of the shower about to change. It's trivial nice thing I enjoy some mornings. She knows I'm awake so nothing Pervy about it.

BadCompany · 27-02-2014 12:45pm

When dogs are given instrinsically human names like Ian.

Donkey Oaty · 27-02-2014 12:46pm

When pay for my shopping without needing approval or having an unexpected item in the baggage area.

Tilly · 27-02-2014 12:46pm

Fresh bed sheets.

I also love this, except it's not my girlfriend but the nursing home across the road.

scrubber72 · 27-02-2014 12:49pm

Trivial things like freshly made coffee, clothes folded nicely and a freshly made bed. Others being on time.

27-02-2014 12:50pm

Fresh bedsheets

That's a euphemism isn't it?

893bet · 27-02-2014 12:51pm

First taste of "new potatoes".
Some one doing you a genuine tiny favour for no reason.
The stretch in the evenings
Passing the NCT despite not serving the car or checking anything before hand (will still service now obviously).
Good neighbours.
A really good pint of Guinness.
Light 3betting and subsequently crushing the flop

When you're running late but end up getting your regular train cos it's late too.

tmc86 · 27-02-2014 12:57pm

Waking up on a Saturday morning thinking it's a workday!

The Diabolical Monocle · 27-02-2014 12:58pm

The morning piss.

michael.dublin · 27-02-2014 1:02pm

then someone, for no reason at all, does something kind for you. now that just the best feeling in the world :-)

Biting the chocolate off a malteser without biting the malty bit

Peeling an orange in one piece

Changing lanes without hitting a catseye

Little victories \o/

Pausing a dvd and realising one of the actors was in the middle of a word or facial expression and look weird

Fishyfreak · 27-02-2014 1:19pm

Cleaning my ears with a moist cotton bud, ahhhh bliss.

pajor · 27-02-2014 1:26pm

Not being asked for ID when buying drink (at 22).

geckovision · 27-02-2014 1:30pm

Sitting down to a nice a meal.

When the trailers come on before the film you're about to see in the cinema. Heightens the excitement of what's about to be shown.

Being asked for ID when I buy drink ( in my 30's)

MonstaMash · 27-02-2014 1:40pm

Sticking my finger in the OH's mouth mid-yawn

Really pisses her off & gives me an immense sense of sadistic pleasure :eek:

WellThen? · 27-02-2014 1:45pm

When your checking the Dublin Bus app to see when the next one is , but before it loads you see the bus coming. About once a year that happens!

Stone Deaf 4evr · 27-02-2014 1:58pm

being told my takeaway delivery will be about 40 minutes and then it arrives in 15.

Menas · 27-02-2014 2:01pm

Triggers make me happy.

That and getting to work with no red lights, a passage of green and amber lights.

The Master · 27-02-2014 2:01pm

Sally O'Brien and the way she might look at you...

eisenberg1 · 27-02-2014 2:28pm

little puppies, kind people who always help other, small kiddies, people who give up seats on..................aaaagh, no, fcuk it, I can't do it.

This thread is all too nicey nicey for me........I am out.

Runs screaming back to the annoyance people

quickbeam · 27-02-2014 2:30pm

Getting a flash of the lights or a wave of the hand from a driver after I've done something nice for them like letting them out at traffic. Love feeling appreciated.

Oops69 · 27-02-2014 2:33pm

When threads like this die well before the trivial annoying things thread , hello what are we , californians on Prozac or properly grumpy irish people !:D

EyeSight · 27-02-2014 2:39pm

seeing people stand up to scumbags and causing them harm

Super-Rush · 27-02-2014 2:43pm

The smell of frying bacon wafting up the stairs.

When the cat we rescued forgets that its afraid of its own shadow and falls asleep on my lap.

Listening to someone getting ready for work knowing you have the day off.

Returning home from an afternoon with my nephews and enjoying the silence.

GenieOz · 27-02-2014 2:46pm

Going into the gym and seeing it completely empty

Aw, that's kinda sad that grumpiness makes you happy. I feel bad for you.

Have a hug.

danniemcq · 27-02-2014 3:03pm

When i get home from a crappy day at work and open the front door and my wee dog goes mental.

When my girlfriend is sitting on the couch beside me with her legs over mine and i feel her legs twitch as she falls asleep. When she puts her ankle between my legs when we spoon as we fall asleep. I feel so content and love the fact that she is comfy enough to do this.

getting the chewy malteaser in a packet

27-02-2014 3:19pm

Flipping a perfect pancake!

Slaygal · 27-02-2014 3:26pm

a cup of tea and a bar of chocolate

Getting a run of green lights on the N81 (doesn't happen often)

893bet · 27-02-2014 3:27pm

Seeing a speed van.............then checking to see your speed and realising you are ok!

Sar Bear · 27-02-2014 3:29pm

When you have music on shuffle and you get a string of your favourite songs.

When my hair doesn't look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards.

Having the weekend off (happens maybe 4 times a year).

When the boyfriend brings home wine.

27-02-2014 3:38pm

When the dude in avoca makes a heart shape in my hot chocolate (don't even care that he does it for everyone).
