    That Texaco children's art competition ad, "Bobby the Cow".
    "Bobby" is male we are informed.

    Perhaps he identifies as a cow...can't even assume animals gender these days :)

    The word "sesh" ....just grates on my nerves...
    users should be wearing JD trakkies, white socks outside...
    and hands constantly down their jocks...nobody else should use the word!

    Drunk mates. Especially when I am sober enough and they are blacking out right in front of my eyes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,845 ✭✭✭Antares35


    How judgemental people can be, based solely on looks. I often run into the local supervalu after work to pick up one or two things. No issues there. But I noticed the odd person will stare at me if I go in while wearing outdoor clothes for dog walking. Went in today and fair enough had on my wellies, black jeans, black outdoor jacket and had my hair tied up and no makeup because there is quite simply no point showering and doing hair and makeup until after the dogs are walked and fed. Some stupid aul bint in front of me actually moved away. I'm the same person she wouldnt bat an eyelid around if I went in wearing my nice work clothes and looked well. Stupid old snobby cow. Take your frozen yoghurt and TV guide and be gone back to your thoroughly average house.TA people are still so shallow as to judge people solely on looks.

    Based on judging by looks . people assuming I'm drunk because I walk funny. I've overheard one pious old witch call me a alco in my own home.
    Others have called police (5 breathalyser tests in 13 months) which is better as there's a definite answer.

    If she's in your home sling her out, though she would probably blame that on "the drink" too.

    TA my curtain rail has fallen down and pending it being fixed tomorrow I have a creepy night ahead not knowing who or what might be looking in.

    Ever have that niggling feeling that something is wrong, but you can't identify precisely what is troubling you ?

    I hated when my my mother would say dinner is ready but it would still be 15 minutes till it was cooked.

    People who tell you about their problems then criticise you for quietness when you were listening attentively and offering encouraging words at the right moments. Its like "right, got that off my chest, so why arent you entertaining me? "

    Is your house decorated in an eclectic style?
    Only asking because I love it when houses are, and the way you said "thoroughly average house" reminds me of me saying "cream three piece suite and Billy bookcase in the upvc sun room". I've already been bollocked for saying that but I still think it sometimes.

    When you're in a rented or borrowed car and need a fill up when you realise you have no clue which side the petrol cap is on.

    My wife's car is 17 years old and I still can't remember. When I choose the wrong side to get my petrol I always wonder will the hose thingy be long enough to stretch across the car. (and avoid damaging the rear view wiper)

    The only consolation is that I always get a few drops of the last person's petrol caught in the hose....

    I have a thing about my newspapers....if I buy it, I don’t like anyone to read it before me...
    I was on a flight recently, for which I always try to be prepared with water, iPad for reading/film/music and a newspaper. The plane has just taken off and I M waiting for everything to settle down when the guy beside me asks “If you are not reading that paper, can I borrow it?” I replied “no, I’ll be reading it in a minute”....he kinda snorted.
    Mrs E thought I was being awkward
    Who gets on a flight (alone) without a book or electronic device of some sort?

    Your way too polite, I would have glared at him and told him to phuck write off.... and then complained to the air staff that he was harassing you.

    You need to deal with passive aggressiveness comprehensively.

    A lot of people are mad in the head. And not like x is a mad bastard in a funny way, no x is a fookin space cadet that needs a dose of reality.

    Also dry****es full of their own self importance. Get over yourself you flutebag. That is all.

    Small environmentally friendly cisterns that require you to strategically plan your operation, with multiple flushes where you might anticipate a significant ratio of material to paper lest you be left with significant unflushed material and an awkward wait.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭madmaggie


    Agree with Antares about the funny looks. I work outdoors, and pop into supermarket on the way home. I know I'm mucky and probably sweaty, but it's from good honest work.

    My TA is people being surprised that I can type, cook, use a computer etc. I didn't go to third level, but it doesn't mean I'm thick.

    Not to dismiss yours, but it reminds me of the opposite situation I had last night. 3 am, small 50 kph road, asshole tailgating and flashing his lights before overtaking me and roaring away. I was doing bang on the limit. Some days, you wish there was a guard up ahead.

    Driving at the limit is fine, it’s people doing 10 below on a 50 that drive me mad

    Some days I wish I was a guard in an unmarked car, so I can return the flashing favour when they overtake!

    Some days I also wish I was a traffic warden so I could fine stupid inconsiderate parking.

    I wouldn't actually do either of those jobs though :)

    FF =Fantasy football. Their goalies or defenders conceded goals meaning no 4 point bonanza for them.

    Right so this sounds petty. But about ten years ago I was over in America and when I came home I introduced the cousins, friends and whoever else to how great American Football is. It's got to the stage that my cousins have become obsessed with it. They have a Super Bowl party every year, and I was invited last year purely because I was family and to make up a seat. But other than that it seems to be an exclusive guest list: you have to have played for the county at least once before you are allowed through the door. One lad is travelling half an hour out of his way to be there when I am five mins away. Definition of trivially annoyed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,305 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I do enjoy watching the NFL highlights, but I agree that there seems to be some sort of cult clique of die-hard Irish NFL fans. They get a bit too obsessed imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    TA on behalf of my boyfriend. He was at a work poker night last night and it was all paid for through their sports and social. When it came to handing out drinks vouchers the old bint who organised it wouldn’t waste a voucher on him because he was driving and only having soft drinks. She said she didn’t want to “waste them” on non alcoholic drinks despite the fact some people were using two for vodka and cokes and despite the fact she brought her mother who isn’t even an employee and who drank the place dry with them! Like in essence he pays every week from his wages for things like that. He wasn’t even annoyed about it but since he told me I am fuming lol and I don’t even work there or know these people I need to get a life
