Things That Trivially Annoy You.

Can't seem to put on weight and kind of using it as an excuse to not get back to exercise which I know will help everything.

A group walking 5 abreast on the footpath all with umbrellas. Have you no consideration for other pedestrians?

Also people eating smelly food on the bus. So inconsiderate.

If said group face oncomming traffic on adjacent road then I put this down as a Major A. Time to apply steel tip of umbrella to ankle of pedestrian

Yea was downloading an update for the car sat nav when it went kaput.

The download is 28 GB so even with reasonably fast bb it takes an age.

About half done when it went and I managed to delete the bit I had :mad:

I have a lovely new candle that I can't bring myself to light. I keep opening the box and sniffing it, the box is so pretty and it smells so nice, but if I light it that's it on the way to being gone. Knowing I am a weirdo is a TA.

I got a gorgeous candle as a present 5 years ago and I've still not lit it because it's too pretty to ruin!

Watching any nature documentary that isn't narrated by David Attenborough just feels wrong.

northgirl · 13-10-2018 8:28pm

It's 8.30 on Saturday night and I'm in bed the last hour watching Mr Mercedes. I am officially OLD.

TA my right eye has been a little blurry all day . I kept cleaning my glasses thinking that was the problem .
Daughter called in earlier and asked why my eye was all puffy/swollen .

That explains it , although now I don't know why it's puffy

madmaggie · 13-10-2018 11:15pm

You're not a weirdo, Rubberlegs. I have expensive lotions (gifts) that I consider too good to use. Daft.

madmaggie · 13-10-2018 11:19pm

Big TA is my ancient laptop, on the way out after 7 years. The thoughts of trying to understand Windows whatever is out now is scaring me. I like my Windows 7.

misstearheus · 14-10-2018 1:39am

Had a Biro in my hand one minute writing something. Next minute it has just vanished, flew off into Outer Space, never to be seen again. :rolleyes: Now I have to leave my cosy spot and get up and go get another Biro. :mad:

The higher storage requirements to properly run Windows 10 took my budget out of the running for a new laptop. Settled for a Chromebook, gets me online (and that's about it)... Samsung's wearing out after only 16 months.

Expensive technology = ta.

Windows 10 can take a little while to get used to.. but you can always download "classic shell" onto a laptop of you purchase.
It makes the layout look like windows 7

Wish sites would use torrents for large downloads. Then the download could simply pick up where it let off when you get back online.

Well it does tbh but I was getting annoyed by the pop ups saying errors/check connection that I closed it which deleted the download. I'd prefer if it just gave the option to get updates for Ireland.

Not really trivial but the lack of focus on the problem of elderly drivers. Seem to get a free pass because everyone is complaining about young men driving.

bonzodog2 · 14-10-2018 10:44am

TA when I'm playing some music tracks on Youtube, comments like "<some TV show> brought me here" and "Who's listening to this in 2018 ?"

+ I "almost met" an elderly driver driving the wrong way up the slip road onto a 120kmh HQDC. They would have had to have either done a U-turn on the HQDC or driven at least 2km the wrong way up the HQDC from the next junction to get there!

Why haven't phone manufacturers fixed this yet? If I take a photo in portrait, I don't lose 70% so it should be the same for video. This issue annoys everyone so whatever phone company solves the problem first will take a lot from the competition.

Effects of the IVs wearing off already. Finished them on Monday and the joint and sinus pain started up again on Friday. Ah well, those were a nice few illness free days

Go out and slit their throat. I fcuking hate noisey outdoor Sunday work.

Snapchats that have text on them that only stay on the screen for 2 or 3 seconds.

retro:electro · 14-10-2018 1:29pm

The fact tv3 can’t go a wet week without hawking out the same fcuking shlte viewing. The Snapper, Circle of Friends, and the rest of the bargain bin shlte they regularly regurgitate.

Also, left my jacket in the pub.

For me, it's worse hearing that on a Saturday morning. Occasionally I'll have a lie-in on a Saturday but never ever on a Sunday*.

The cringe of those Dolmio ads. What must Italian people think of them? It'd be like an ad on the telly in Italy for genuine Bacon and Cabbage thats sold in a can, and a family of Irish people with bright red hair and no teeth sitting around going, "be gorrah, shur jaysus tis great shtuff, cabbage out of a can"

Mollyb60 · 14-10-2018 4:47pm

****ed up my back yesterday. No no, I wasn't windsurfing or running in a marathon. Just sitting round my kitchen table with friends. In agony with the ****er today. How can a person just put out their back by sitting down?
