I'm currently sitting on the couch. The Now TV remote is also missing. The program is nearly over. I'm terrified if I move I'll sit on a button and go to home menu!

Why dreams can't be more like mini holidays for a bit of refreshment, instead of the neverending "rehashing of all the negative issues of your life with symbolic ugliness" - it makes sleep exhausting! :mad:

When people use the term "buddy" - usually on Boards! I just cringe for them. It's so passive aggressive and silly. Even if I agree with what they are saying once they say, "I don't think so buddy" I just lose all respect for them.

I got one better (or worse depending on how you look at it) but I had a "friend" call me "son" in conversation. He's a year older than me and was in the same class as me in school. He did this in front of people he knew - strangers to me.

Never said it to anyone else, just me.

Very belittling

Was shaking a bottle of chipotle ketchup, the cover must not have been on properly since I last used it because the entire contents of it spilled all over the fecking counter.

My own impatience: I ordered something online yesterday, delivery in 5-6 days (next Friday). Great, but... Why isn't it here yet?

Poopheads in the workplace who seem to live their lives by one simple rule: Everyone who is over them they kiss their ass shamelessly. Anyone who is under them they treat like absolute dirt.

Neighbours shouting abuse at the droves of kids that play in our cul de sac telling the to play away from their house. People forget they were once children and that they once had young kids.

There's a special area of hell reserved for people who pierce a small hole in the tab of a ketchup bottle rather than taking the entire tab off when opening.

Ordered 2 books for my grandsons.Give 10 days for delivery.No sign of them,they wont answer emails and wont answer facebook messages.

Im giving it till Monday and them im going to ask my bank for a chargeback.

bnt · 19-09-2020 5:26pm

TA-ed at getting spam email - on an account I have almost stopped using entirely - with a password I used once many years ago. The sender claims to have hijacked my PC's webcam - which it doesn't have - to spy on me being "intimate". So this person is threatening to post non-existent video to my contacts on social media - I don't use social media* - showing me doing ... I have no idea.

Yes, we know some website password databases were hacked, that's why you don't re-use passwords. There are websites such as Have I Been Pwned? where you can check whether this has happened to you.

* no, Boards is not social media, it's more like anti-social media.

Gervais08 · 19-09-2020 5:28pm

Annoyed at myself - got a new job and loving it but I am so annoyed that I’m letting the crap from my old job live rent free in my head!!!

I’m free, the new job is amazing - I just need to let go!

Antares35 · 19-09-2020 5:44pm

Ordered my parents online shopping for them. Told them when it would be delivered. Got a call from the driver saying there was nobody in. Had to rush to their place. Met them coming in the gate with handfuls of blackberries. "Oh we only went out for five minutes"

mrslancaster · 19-09-2020 5:54pm

TA'd that so many people walking dogs in my local area let their dog run free - dogs not on a lead

Some of us walkers are not dog lovers and don't want your big labrador or barking pooch jumping all over us until you decide to call it back

:D

Boiler won’t work all of a sudden for literally no reason. It was serviced less than two months ago.
I’m so hungover and all I want is a hot shower. It’s ****ing 2020 and I can’t have a hot shower. I’m minutes away from smashing the thing up with a hurl.

Relax there, this is the place to offload the TA's to reduce anger levels, not increase them.

Edit,as in I don't get if you were TAd by someone asking if she is their dog or if you asked that. I'm confused!

“She was such a good girl” like she’s their dog or something? It’s just cringeworthy, IMO. Cloying nonsense like that is a joe.ie hallmark.

Shopping in Dunnes, the isles are marked for social distancing. But you still encounter the one who blocks the aisle with their cart. While chatting on their phone and won't make an effort to accommodate other shoppers.

People who call a shopping trolley a cart!

Amazon Prime constantly freezing or skipping on me :mad: All I want to do is to watch The Man In The High Castle but it's unbearable. This has been going on for a few weeks now.

In my home country we call it a cart, it is still a habit to call it as such. There is so much I'm willing to acclimate here. If that annoys you then I don't know what else to say. Except deal with it.

Gervais08 · 19-09-2020 11:09pm

The way the two actresses sound out Hyalouronic Acid on that L’Oréal advert makes me want to scratch my ears off.

That and those Dove sponsorship indents on Sky annoy me greatly.

Probably the same ones whose shopping reaches 48euro so they go skipping off to find something for 2 euro so they can use their token, with little regard for everyone behind them!

Antares35 · 20-09-2020 12:39am

People who complain about "bad eyesight" which is usually just age related. My parents complain about having to wear glasses to read etc. I've had the type of myopia that has onset around age 11 and got steadily worse until my early twenties. My vision now is minus 7. Basically, without lenses or glasses I won't even see a car coming as I try to cross a road. I've dealt with this all my life, and all the faffing around with lenses, solutions, eye infections, scratched glasses on and on and on.

Then to hear someone in their seventies complain about needing cheapo over the pharmacy counter perspex lenses for a fiver so they can read a tiny font ingredients list, when it's simply just normal macular degeneration, really TAs me. Really, you just don't know what "bad eyesight" is.

My ex is German and called it a wagon. I thought it was cute

too many noisy cars.

in my suburb, you'd think it was the city center or the nascar 500.

and this might be at 9 or 10 at night. seriously take a break for 5 minutes. its just woosh wooosh woooosh wooosh.

i try to listen to something on my headphones, and every cnting time some prick in a car goes by at the important part, or a bus. the buses are just way over the top loud.
cant hear sht at high volume.

so i press the lights on my route even when i dont need to cross. to fck back. i know you pricks are going nowhere, running pointless errands and driving like its an emergency. i know it a pint of milk or a shoe left in someones house.

I wish I could thank this a thousand times! I’ve got a really weird prescription that both get worse annually. Specs need changing and they’re 400 euro a throw currently.

So you just waste people's time for no reason because you think you’re some kind of self appointed traffic warden.
Jesus that’s a big TA of mine.

Gregor Samsa · 20-09-2020 10:21am

I buy a lot of milk, usually 12 one litre cartons at a time. If I put them all up on the belt, the cashiers complain that they have to handle them all, and say to just put one up and tell them how many there is. If I do that, they invariably fück it up.

So today I decide to do it their way. One carton in the belt, the other 11 fully visible in the child seat of the trolley. She scans the milk, just as I say “I’ve got 12 of those” and point at the mass of milk in my trolley. Then she stops, takes it back from the packing area, taps furiously in the checkout, huffs and puffs and proceeds to scan the one carton of milk individually 12 times.

TA’d that I can’t win.

NewbridgeIR · 20-09-2020 1:28pm

Are they one litre tetrapaks?

Can't beat full fat milk in a one litre tetrapak.

The branded tin foil wrapping on the top of cans of San Pellegrino. No need for it and must be environmentally inefficient.

No need for the tin foil wrapping, the can itself or the contents imo
