Little things that irritate you

Watching Tipping Point in the afternoon.....now that irritates the hell out of me.

I don't know why I watch it as some of the people on there are so thick, they shouldn't be let anywhere near a quiz show.

And when they press the button to release the counters......why do they do it so late? It's not effing rocket science.

One bloke was asked a question last week and the answer was Sir Isaac Newton. The bloke said "I know that one....it's Cheech and Chong" Even Ben Shephard was wetting himself.

C***s the lot of em. :arry:

"Your not a parent, you don't know what it's like/understand "

A sentence said to me about 5 times in the last few months, once by my own mother.

My missus and her being a good person/friend. We had this lovely weekend planned, her best mate has just found out her husband has been banging someone else, so she is coming to ours for the weekend now to sort her nut out and give herself "thinking time".

I get why it would be irritating. But it is true, if you're not a parent, then you won't understand the absolute crap you have to put up with.

Absolutely!
Sort out a load of drinks (and some weed or other substances) on the way home, give yourself a bit of a tidy up once indoors and who knows where the weekend will end up? :wink:

No dissimilar to this - people that talk about their pets as if they are children.

When I go for a wee at work the urinal, without fail, is flushing or rinsing or whatever it does at that exact moment.

That means some expert flow control is in order to avoid the overflow and potential wet shoes as they don't drain quick enough.

I was not sure about responding to this one and I do not want to argue about it but I think you can love your pets as much as children.

Especially if,like us, you are not going to have children for various reasons.

If your kids are anything like mine, the dog (who has issues) is infinitely more lovable.

Oregano, and the overuse thereof in anything "Italian".

Hmm, I was referring to people that talk as if looking after pets is the same as looking after kids.

I too had a bit of grit or something in my eye when we had to put our dogs down. Windy day, must've blown something into my eye. Made me look a right tart.

Breaking a toe bashing it on one of the stair gates. Highly f*cking annoying.
