    Oh and English people on holiday, well some of them, they mostly have tattoos and wear England tops and read the sun

    Couldnt agree more! Turns my stomach, I cant even look at it.

    Surely respect has to be earned.

    If respect is earned wouldn't you already know the stuff that annoys you about the person in question?


  • Registered Users Posts: 294 ✭✭Vegetarian2017


    People who put their bags on train/bus seats and won’t move until someone has to ask can they sit there Ditto people who sit o the outside of the row when the inside is vacant

    I have a lot of train issues


    Ever think maybe said person is sitting on outside seat to allow someone have the inside as they are getting off a few stops later hence leaving it free and when person takes window seat u aren't disturbing them to get them up again five mins later more thoughtful than rude perhaps or pregnant n afraid they may need to make a quick exit ...so next time u throw an arrogant prejudge look it could be u in wrong O_o

    Complaining about "suits" and judging people who wear them. This often comes with a hatred for middle class professionals in non-creative careers. Grow up you f**cking infantile morons.

    Suits generally means bosses. Innit.

    A zealot is a zealot.

    Right wing or left wing isn't relevant

    People that define their intelligence by what programs they find entertaining. The way they go on you'd think they'd written The Wire rather than just sat on their arse and watched it. There's people that think they're a genius because they like South Park and think anyone that doesn't 'get it' is an idiot.

    I always feel a tiny bit inferior to those who watch Game of Thrones and Breaking bad etc :D you've hit the nail on the head. Oh and people who are into really obscure music and turn their nose up when you've no focking idea what they're listening to.

    Anti vax conspiracy theorists. No explaining to them or showing them proof. They put others at risk with their stupidity and refuse to listen to reason. Zero respect from me.

    And berate you when you disagree by asking you for conclusive evidence. :eek: if they’d provide conclusive evidence for their opinion to the contrary then we might be onto something but that never happens.

    I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for people who drink / sunbathe / generally laze about in front of their houses - that's what back gardens are for you fúcktard.
    If you don't have a back garden (which I didn't for donkeys years - go to a park)
    I don't want to see and hear either you or your flabby lady friend screaming and shouting about what exactly happened with Charleene after Jacintas christening, all the while soundtracked by the appalling faux reggae stylings UB fúcking 40.

    People that believe that there are more than two genders.

    Biologically you're either male or female, end of story.

    No problem with gay people or whatever it's the 'identify as...' bull crap.

    I see that even United Airlines now have a third checkbox for intending passengers. You can be Mr , Ms or Mx !!! The can of worms that opens is that you can now most likely insist that you be searched by an 'Mx' :D

    I am sorry but that simply isnt true.
    Intersex people are real and exist.
    Also why would you really care how does it effect you?


    I do however have a problem with tits like Sam Smith deciding they are non-binary and gender fluid on a whim.

    Is “whim” a new pronoun? I’m so confused...

    I watched the interview with Jameela Jamil (who I like very much) he didnt come across genuinely at all IMO, he still wants to be known as He, Him for example.

    Combination of Woman and Him....Whim.
    Please refer to me by this going forward :).


    I have no issue with people identifying as whatever they want btw, I identify as a gay man, I was more talking about the Sam Smith thing in that context.
    People should be allowed to live as whoever they want, I dont see the harm.

    I still find it hard to get my head around, the non-binary, gender fluid, they them thing as well, but thats up to me not the person involved obviously.

    But I would say dont get pissed off if I mistake you for him/her when the person wants to be referred to as they, how the hell am I meant to know! (that actually happened to me before)

    Calling anyone you don't agree with a "snowflake" or a "libtard".

    If you have an argument, make it, don't just resort to namecalling...

    ha love it.



    She is absolutely stunning no doubt about that, plus hilarious in the good place (which also sounds like an innuendo.....)

    I also really like how she calls out all the detox tea instagram tools as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,812 ✭✭✭✭sbsquarepants


    I've never actually seen the good place -is it any use?

    She seems like a bit of craic on celebrity juice and things like that - and she is so god damn hot!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,886 ✭✭✭beans


    I like how she was hit by a car while being chased by a bee.
