This thread is purely for ranting and giving out about day to day things that we find annoying, us Irish are good at complaining so there shouldn't be a bother thinking of a few very mad

I'll kick it off:-

- Holding a door for an ignoramus that doesn't say "thank you"

- Someone standing uncomfortably close to you in a queue uh oh

When you're driving on a main road and you see someone trying to enter the main road from a side road up ahead and you flash them to let them come forward.....if they are female then they have to be invited twice. Men will fire ahead but women are more cautious. I know they are safer drivers but come on girls........go for it!

The usual ones for a start.

People who litter!
People that don't pick up their dog litter.
People that would let a door slam back on you.
Over familiar people, that you don't know.
Those that park cars on bends, and on footpaths.
People who spell badly, but know the right spelling, as in tat, and kno.
Bad timekeepers.

People reclining their seat on an aeroplane until they are practically on your lap....a three hour flight with somebody's child grinning at you looking for attention during the entire flight.....people complaining about the heat after 9 months of cold and rain....spending 10 minutes pressing different options when you ring someplace only to be told that you are through to the wrong department!...........the person who asks a million questions on the blogs and practically every sentence includes... "r u"?...frustrated

MysteriousGirl80: He has better eyebrows than me

That's if you're lucky enough to speak to a human at the bank

Not to mention speaking to an automated machine when ringing a government body and holding for half an hour

Beginning to think i've got anger issues


Government departments very mad

Was getting nowhere in a phone queue for the passport office a few years ago, so rang the secretary of dept. of foreign affairs instead.
They gave me a direct line number in passport office and the person who answered was not happy and said "where did u get this number".
I said I had contacts and guess what I got my passport in the post the next day.

Most of the mobile phone companies don't want to talk to you either confused endless menus or online chat but try speaking to a human blues

You're not the only one with anger issues laugh
