Things That Trialvilly Annoy You.

Had a lady stop to allow me to cross the road earlier. Nice gesture and all, but I was already stepping out into the road to cross as she was the last car before it was clear. Because she stopped I had to hesitate to see wtf she was doing, then hurry across. All in all I'd have preferred she kept going!

Shortly after that I came to a roundabout with a car already on it, and though it was coming from the opposite side and had no right indicator on I stopped. Which was a good thing, because she took the third exit without indicating once. As did the four cars behind her. FFS people - the lord moves in mysterious ways but you don't have to....

I was just thinking earlier does anyone else get annoyed when someone else stops to let them cross the road because then you feel like you have to hurry and they'll see your stupid run and your belly wobbling. :D:D

And the fear of tripping and face-planting yourself to the ground.

In the checkout queue in Aldi. Person behind keeps bumping into me. Won't make the people ahead of me go faster love!

People trying to define, label and neatly box me as quickly as possible.

An example: I laughed at something and the other person immediately concluded "slapstick is your humour, so".

Actually I like a wide variety of comedy, especially jokes that make you think.

I drank my tea weak and milky years ago during a bout of nausea, and someone keeps informing me I like weak, milky tea. I did once, am I now stuck with it forever? What is wrong with some peoples brains that they automatically seek to reduce and limit me to a few narrow labels...the worst being, because I was quiet for a little while mainly because the person was behaving oddly and I was unnerved, they slapped the label.'shy' on me. I'm anything but. I pointed out that was early on and for a brief time. They conceded "you opened up a lot but at the start". So....the entirety of my dealings with you are ignored because of fifteen minutes of being uneasily subdued around you, you great hairy weirdo ape?

Oh another one. I went to a party ONCE so now any time I mention I'm going out they assume I'm going to a party.

TA is Liverpool have played 25 games and have 73 points.
Almost a perfect season so far apart from that blip

Every time there's a vote, RTE dust off the same old article they use to tell us that "Islanders are the first to vote". Who cares? This is not news. It happens every time. We get it. They live remotely, the ballot box is sent over a day early etc. Go away with your stupid non news story.

I'm not a morning person and will usually not talk to anyone except my dog until I hit work which suits me fine. I need time to emerge from myself in the morning. When my parents are here they feckin bounce around the place being nice but actually just annoying me. They'll make my breakfast and I have to eat with them. They'll touch my toast by taking it out of the toaster (and I've already a TA about people who dont wash their hands and face upon rising) and all the questions and chat is like an onslaught. I can feel myself physically reconciling from the effort of interaction and it exhausts me.

TA that election flyers have my address on them. I never put anything with an address on in the bin so I have to tear it off of each of them and throw it on the fire.

TA, Srameen is gone. I enjoyed his posts and maybe am gullible but I took him at his word.. I think he was genuine. :(

Could you point me towards further info?

On my epic return journey to collect my car.

Will be over 1k lighter by the end of it.

Just looked at my coat and looks like a bird pooped while I was waiting to board the bus... At least I feckin hope it's bird poop "vomit"

Two months ago I realised that €165 was taken out of my bank account in error by eir.

After speaking to four or five "customer service" agents I was eventually told that they accepted it was an error on their part due to the fact that they'd taken another customer's bill out of my bank account! (Some of the agents were very polite and helpful, others made me feel as though I was a dick for wasting their time!)

Obviously, I expected the €165 to be refunded as quickly as possible, but I'm still waiting so I gave them a call again today. I've always been friendly and polite with anyone I've ever had to deal with - they are doing a job and don't deserve abuse for doing it, although at times this has left me feeling very frustrated.

So today I spoke with a really lovely agent. I had to go through the whole story from start to finish, then wait on hold for 10 minutes, and then she told me that there appears to have been some kind of fraudulent activity on my account :eek:

Now, and only now, has this been reported to their Fraud Team. I've been promised a phone call or an email back later today or Monday to let me know what's happening (I won't hold my breath).

Why oh why did it take eir so long to do this when it was first reported two months ago?

My TA is not specifically aimed at eir, it's all these type of companies who are happy to take your money, but when it comes to dealing with your problems start to give you the runaround in the hope that you'll eventually give up.

The elastic in the waist band of my boxers has loosened somewhat, and now my underwear is falling down inside my trousers as I walk about.
Every now and then I have to find a quiet spot and put my hand down inside to pull them back up again.
