Congratulations antares... I knew we were around the date

Tampon ads . Years ago they were like whiskas ads , now it's " get it up there girls"
Kinda gross really ;(

I'd consider myself a modern woman but I even find that ad revolting.
It actually sets feminism back about a decade.
Imagine if it were 2 male actors presenting that ad. There would be uproar but because they're women, it's 'enlightening'.

My nosy neighbour actually asked me today "and how are you feeding your baby?" ( She's one week old and I'm close to madness struggling to nurse)

I would never ask someone that. TA the response "very well thank you" only dawned on me five hours after. She also asked "what kind of birth did you have".

As if either of those things are anrmassMasxy of her business. TA people who think your choices are everyone else's business.

Massive hug darling ❤️
Ta that life is so tough. I miss everyone and everything.

Congratulations Antares. Enjoy your summer baby.

On an otherwise fabulous morning, two things irked me.

1) A 10 minute long driver change on O'Connell St because the drivers wouldn't stop yapping.

2) An aul pair feeding the pigeons in St. Stephen's Green. If I ruled the country there would be no pigeons. Less pigeons, more ducks.

castletownman · 30-05-2020 12:48pm

Being called a clown, a plonker and a couple other things by grown adults on social media because I had the temerity to hold a different opinion on something than them.

Now I would understand it if I was racist/anti-vax/homophobic or whatever, but I literally held the view that a GAA player was over-rated in my opinion, and backed up my thoughts with stats.

I do generally have a thick skin when it comes to this sort of thing as I am a journalist, but still it is annoying (as much as I love having debates). But still, if you can't respectfully challenge someone's thought with reasoned counter-points, and instead resort to name-calling, then who is the bigger person?

TA at the quality of the 3 magnum white chocolate & cookie I bought in Tesco.
There is some sort of pink ice on the outside, the chocolate shell has come away from the ice cream and the cream feels like crunchy ice.
Kinda like a snowball.
And no real taste of them.
What's going on with them?

I'd email those pics to magnum customer service... It will take 5 mins... I've done similar before to a different company.... Got a lil goody box back.

Might do for the craic.

A far cry from what they lead you to believe you're getting.
I can see why Michael Douglas's character in Fallen Down lost it :pac:

Looks like that had thawed and was stuck back into the freezer.

I am TA'd at that magnum too.
I choose my moments to have sweet stuff (middle age spread and all that) and would be irked if I was treating myself and it turned out to be sub par.

late to the show but big congratulations on new baby Antares! The fun starts here, the best of times ahead!

madmaggie · 30-05-2020 11:26pm

Owing to misunderstanding, a relative wrongly believes I did something to annoy him. Now blanking me.

Lucky Lou · 30-05-2020 11:28pm

I can't talk now but I will call you as soon as baby settles.
7 days ago.
I'd seek help.

Antares35 · 30-05-2020 11:40pm

Thanks everyone! My TA is I thought becoming a mother would allow me to throw off the shackles of being a crank and I'd bask in the glow of life having a new purpose and I'd let the trivial things slide.

Well, I'm basically still as much of an antichrist as always, but now more so because sleep deprivation is thrown into the mix

I predict a lot more TAs.

Badly Drunk Boy · 31-05-2020 7:51am

Why is everybody trivially annoyed that Antares35 had a baby? Oh...the over-population of the planet? :pac:

I'm annoyed that my family want me to visit them later. I'm allowed to. My mother and brother live 0.85km from here ("Why don't you ever drop over?" "There's a virus...")...but then I'll have to talk to them. And then I'll have to justify leaving...

Panda Killa · 31-05-2020 9:50am

Unusual one and trivial too.
Mario Pasalic is off to Atalanta today....
who's he I hear you say?...well...he's a Chelsea player for the last 6 years....
not heard of him you say?....well...maybe it's because he's never kicked a ball for them!
€14.5 million in wages in that time ...I suppose bits just another case of the haves...and the have-nots...
Nevermind me...I'm just having an auld moan.

I Am Nobody · 31-05-2020 6:40pm

The lack of common sense and the new generation. Seriously how are they going to lead or survive?

Wanderer2010 · 31-05-2020 8:34pm

People who treat a horrendous and tragic event like suicide as nothing more that passable, salacious gossip in order to pass a few boring minutes at work. A guy from my hometown ended his life last week and I was just thinking about how sad it was and I felt such empathy for his family, when I happened to be in the local shop and I overheard a few cows whispering to each other about the event.

One of them got a text and her eyes bulged, obviously amazed by the news, she went straight over to her workmate, who was in the middle of serving a customer, and whispered, very loudly, "Did you hear so and so killed himself, yeah he was found dead today" as if they were discussing a 20% off Sale from Next. The other one loved this news, put her hand over her mouth all dramatic, and said "Fcuk me, wow, I must tell everyone hang on" and started texting all her contacts furiously. I should have said something, I should have released some of that anger bubbling underneath and told them how utterly despicable human beings they were, disregarding the torment and pain of a fellow human just for a bit of stupid gossip, but im glad I didn't now.

I hope one day, they don't come home to find a dead partner/sibling/friend etc who couldn't bear the torment in his or her soul a second longer and decided to depart this world. I wonder would they still laugh or engage in Chinese Whispers if it were them who had to pick out a coffin, final song, burial plot etc. Some people are absolute fcuking animals.

You are allowed to be a crank. Rule number one for a new baby is that nothing else matters.. Mother and baby need sleep so grab a nap when baby does. The sun is shining, housework can be put on hold. Being a new mother in summer is so much easier than in the dark winter months.
Embrace the fact that nosy people can't visit and expect to be entertained or have the baby awakened for their delight.
Hard not having close family but that will come soon,

Deja Boo · 31-05-2020 9:31pm

Congratz Antares and the new boardsie bairn!

my ta - sleep pattern is off and refuses to change, makes you knackered (and ill-tempered) all day --> precious little gets done :mad:

Aglomerado · 31-05-2020 11:04pm

Neighbours and their sh1te music blaring into their gardens. Disney crap from the young families and wagon wheel and other vomit from the middle aged ones.
Ennio Morricone in my garden today!

Purple Mountain · 31-05-2020 11:47pm

I bought a set of 6 fancy glasses about a year ago.
Tonight, I broke number 4. It literally just slipped out of my fingers.
So I've 2 left out of 6

Badly Drunk Boy · 01-06-2020 2:16am

I'm trivially annoyed that the estate bingo has extended to a drinking party after 2am. Maybe the annoyance is about the fact that we didn't have these sessions 20 years ago...;) *Not part of the gang...again*

madmaggie · 01-06-2020 2:39am

Can't sleep. Too warm, too tired, too restless.

The drinking party is still going on, so at this stage, I can only commend the participants!

And they're not noisy anymore...

Amen to that.

TA is that while everyone else is in bed, I still have to get up to work. No bank holiday for me.

Do you know what's almost worse? Forgetting to switch off the alarm for the bank holiday MONDAY. :mad::mad::mad: --> Being woken up at stupid o'clock for no valid reason. :mad::mad::mad:

Got up at 7.30am to make the most of my day off. My children have been emptying the dishwasher most of the time but as they were still asleep, I decided to do it instead. Managed to break a glass in the process. Mostly big pieces but some shards stuck to the inside of the wet door so have spent the last while painstaking checking it with gloves on and using a wet paper towel to wipe down. Paranoid that invisible shards have attached themselves to the clean dishes that were still in it. So will have to run them all through again. Amazing how one small thing that totally screw up and take the goodness out of the day.

Sephiroth_dude · 01-06-2020 10:06am

Ta'd at listening to Coast to Coast am shows I've already listened to, I should really take note of the ones I've already listened to.

Its a valid concern in fairness, I'd do the same.

wildwillow · 01-06-2020 10:26am

Annoying neighbours who venture in when they find my gate open and think they deserve a tour of my humble abode just because I've done extensive building works. When denied access one woman actually put her hands and face to the window to peer in at my new kitchen. Thank heavens for the lockdown as an excuse.

Use masking tape or sellotape or brown sticky tape or even a sticky lint roll, they'll pick up much more stuff than anything else (bar a bare foot or a gloveless hand

Ah, wait, wet door of the dishwasher...NVM).

Oh, and do a quick rinse cycle, that will remove anything.
