    My local bakery looks to have the most gorgeous cakes and buns and everything looks delicious but nothing is ever covered and everything is always absolutely crawling with flies :(
    Why bother!

    Sickening !


    Ta'd at people who have no consideration for others and only care about themselves.

    This TA seems to be a quintessentially Irish thing: people who say they're going to leave but take ages to actually go. They have to announce that they're leaving at least 47 times.

    "I'll go now. Oh there's yer man on the telly. Oh he's good!"

    "I'll be off now. Oh that's a lovely cushion, where did you get it? Tell me where you got everything else in the room as well, actually."

    "Right lads, I'm gone! Oh, c'mere, did you hear the news about Jimmy from down the road?"

    I'm not 100% sure but I got shingles a few years ago on my face/eyelids/etc. The only thing we could trace it back to was pick n mix sweets and kids being at them. Ever since then I hate anything that isn't covered/open to people to touch.

    Shemale to the rescue...

    If you had chickenpox as a kid, the virus stays in your system and the bastard can reactivate in later years if you are stressed, run down, undergoing chemo(hope you werent) and it comes back as shingles. You are free to pick n mix or other germy stuff now :)

    I had the bastards last year, ****ing agony and exhausted for months after.

    I was in local Super Valu early and had my 3 year old with me, I told him to see what pastry he wanted. He is looking and goes to touch a pain au chocolat and I said "remember point dont touch" and he stopped.

    An older woman, 50s comes over smiles and touches a scone, then grabs a lump off another one, into her mouth and her fingers were wet and I said "Disgusting, do you have to maul every pastry?" She said, "he only wants that one". I said "He knows, I was talking to you". She was morto and scurried off.

    6 of my friends all live in a house together, I’d be over often enough. Anyway they all do this thing where they leave their fridge open for ages literally the whole time they’re cooking a meal sometimes, it drives me insane.

    But I haven’t yet devised a method to stop this without passive aggressively shutting the open fridge or getting all preachy over something I know they’ll regard as trivial.

    Teenage girl was sitting on the bus with the other seat used for her bag

    Another lady wanted to sit down and asked for her to move the bag but she got ignored. A few more requests she got blanked too.

    Getting angry she sat down and shoved the bag over. And still the girl wouldn’t move thr bag and starts smirking as if she won the argument. Cat who got the cream.

    Got off 2 bus stops later. Why the smirk, nobody won anything :confused:

    I put washing powder in the machine and went to get the clothes to put in but got distracted by something else. Ten minutes later I was passing the machine and it was running and I thought "I don't remember putting clothes in there". I hadn't! I had automatically started it :o WTF brain??

    I gave up on the Bus Eireann website years ago. Trying to plan a journey was a nightmare. I don't know how tourists manage to navigate it. Now I use "getthere.ie". It's so easy. You put in your starting point and your destination and it brings up all bus times. Why can't Bus Eireann be so simple?

    Another TA: went to look at a car. I asked the salesman for the full specifications of the car. First thing he writes down for me is the colour. :rolleyes: I don't need to match it to my accessories or my lipstick, I need to know if it works ok, if it's cheap to run, if it's safe and reliable, etc! And ok, I can be funny, but you laughed way too much... *Clint-Eastwood-like glare*


    And this latte is pretty bad, too.

    Thanks. I have my doubts about how over his marriage actually is so I'm telling myself he did me a favour.

    Man, I would have loved a rattle though.*

    Interview for a job I don't want because I already have one lined up: I put my alternative outfit on, because my suit needs a dry clean. It's a wrap dress. Wrap dress and big rack doesn't go well together....
    At least my bra is nude.
    Oh dear, I look like some office slut.

    Ppl who dont recognise that my exaggeration for comedic or not effect is NOT lying. Self referential criteria from ppl who should know better.

    People who constantly complain about Facebook, Twitter, Boards,etc and how terrible they are.
    Instrad of just leaving these optional sites.

    I get some people may have to use them for work and if you do have to be on them for family/etc avoid all those things you hate instead of putting yourself in the middle of it.

    Maybe they enjoy 99% of those sites, but there's always the small amount of narcissitic one's who'll try their best to ruin it for the normies.

    I’d recommend switching to decaf tea after 9:30pm if it’s adding to sleep trouble.

    I was on a bus once where there was a homeless guy who had passed out and shyte himself. The smell was so overwhelming that I had to get off the bus and wait for the next one.
