    Install one of those looking glass devices on the front door and don't answer when it's them, that or move house and don't tell them.

    But seriously yeah that drives me mad.

    IKEA

    How do you leave??

    Once we got to the halfway point there was a canteen and I figured you could exit there but nope, the trek goes on

    I really liked IKEA apart from that, was my first time in one of these


    There are shortcuts!

    And there is a sly way out from the canteen, you just need a small child with you to trigger a sensor.

    Trivial annoyances are not flushing toilets after they've done a dump , moving my stuff. Hitting the brakes when they see a speed camera even if they aren't speeding.
    Less trivial but very annoying is when I don't use my walking stick in public ( if I'm too embarrassed) and people just assume I'm full drunk . 5 police visits and breathalyser tests in the last year attest to this . All clear ,Getting cramps or kicks in my leg if I don't take my baclofen causing me to often fall off benches ( ;( )
    Fookers who don't know the rules of the road at roundabouts. I could go on but maybe Im just cranky and want a rant, sorry !

    That guy in the office, knows loads about sports and diets don't you know, always moaning about he needs to *back* get in shape and sort himself out.....there he is now waddling across the floor with an overflowing bowl of some sort of sugar coated chocolate kids breakfast cereal. I guess he must be starting next Monday......

    The lack of blackberry jam on the shelves of shops. I know Tesco will have it but I left it off my list and forgot it last time I was there.

    Chanced my arm with this “Autumn Fruits” one Lidl have. Very disappointing, it’s basically black current jam, one of the least enjoyable of all the jams but seems to fill up shelves everywhere.

    Looking for a hit of the old “sméara dubha” for the time of year that’s in it. Liberal amounts pasted onto a white scone or homemade brown bread on a wet, grey, day like today would be wonderful.

    Instead I’m stuck with the ubiquitous, disappointing, black current masquerading as “summer fruits”.

    I was in a sports shop Yesterday and saw this hoodie in my size and I really liked it.
    I decided to try it on in the fitting room along with a pants.
    I put on the hoodie and it was tight and then I realised it was a kids size large.

    Not so trivial maybe, but i've had such a crap run of it with my dating life / men lately. i had a major letdown with a guy i was seeing about a month ago who turned out to be a total flake and ended things in a really unfair way. It really hurt me and the silence from him has been hard to take, considering how much he pursued me in the first place. followed by a colleague i had a thing with a while back totally blanking me and deleting me from all his social media for unknown reasons. i could really do with his professional advice on a new role i've started and i don't feel like i can reach out to him now because of all of this bs. and then at the weekend i heard that my long-term ex has a new girlfriend.

    which is fine and of course he should be happy, he's a really good guy. but all of these things are really hitting my self esteem like a freight train and i feel generally a bit sh1t about myself :mad: im bored of being chased and charmed by what turn out to be fickle, disappointing men.

    People who beat around the bush when they want to ask you something. Just spit it out ffs, I don't have time for you to tell me some irrelevant story of why you need to ask me whatever question that you have.

    Shaving. What an absolute chore of a thing. How many months/years have we all spent shaving? Its about time evolution took it out the back and gave it a send off with a shotgun.

    A lot of dicks who dont want a relationship, telling women want to hear until they have sex with them. Drives me mad.

    I found out one of my friends was doing this so myself and a couple of friends tore into him, he promised not to do it again.

    When I found out he was still at it, I created a fake profile using a hot girls picture, bought a sim, arranged a date in a gay bar and "stood him up" after stringing him a long with a load of running late excuses, he was there for 4 hours. He was furious :)

    What? I'm so confused. Your male friend who you think is a man-slag treats people as hookups so you decided to play him at his game. You Cat-fished him and he reacted badly. Who am I supposed to judge here?

    TA’d that anxiety affects my stomach, even though I love to eat. I keep going from hungry to feeling like I can’t eat and I only have a short window when I feel hungry to get whatever it is my stomach tells me I want.

    I've somehow managed to hurt my neck, shoulders and back. I can't move and I'm curled up in an awkward position. I feel rotten :(

    I'm suddenly remembered of the old boomtown rats song "tell me why I don't like Monday's?"

    The guy next to me in the canteen biting his cereal spoon with every mouthful. Every day.

    Don't forget the guy (or gal) who rattles their teaspoon on the inside of the cup for ages when they're stirring their tea/coffee!:mad:

    Teams with more than the specified number of members at a table quiz.

    I wonder if this could be dealt with if the average number of answers per team member was used in declaring the winner?
    E.g. if team A, with six members, had the highest score of say, 90 points, this would average 15 points per member. And if team B, with four members, scored 80 points, giving an average of 20 points per member. Therefore, team B would be declared the winners.
    Would this system work?

    My TA was lads manipulating women looking for a relationship to get a ride and then dropping / stonewalling them. Plenty of places to get a ride without ****ing people over.

    Catfished for less than a week just to tee up a date.

    Is this the judgement thread? :rolleyes:
