Walking two dogs at the same time with leashes of different lengths. Especially when one is very fast and energetic and one is old and slow, and they like to take turns walking on either side of you until the three of you are just an enormous knot.

My neighbours just let the old one plod after them unleashed, while the young one was allowed to trot ahead on the leash.

 

Old one is dead now so they don’t have that problem anymore.

 

I like to bring happiness to the forum.

 

Pet Peeve: Ryanair are threatening to strike on the day I leave for London. Now I’m not flying from Dublin and the small regional airports generally aren’t affected by strikes but I swear to God if I have to miss my Victoria exhibitions at Kensington Palace AND my brother misses Book of Mormon, there will be hell to pay!

I think they know what they are doing. I love dogs more than anything, but they can be very mischievous a-hard-days-night-john-6

I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

When I say “far”, I mean more than half an hour’s bus ride—I thought I can just watch it somewhere near my home. There are, er, about 10 million people in my city, so there have to be tens of cinemas mccartney-shrug_01_gif

When it’s your birthday and you are given a considerable amount of money, but you are going away for the weekend and you don’t want to keep it all your wallet. So, you decide to put it somewhere safe while you are away.

Of course, when you return home a few days later, you can’t remember where you’d decided to put the money.

Denatured alcohol, i hate that the government is so against people consuming alcohol that they’ll intentionally add chemicals to rubbing alcohol to make it fatal.

Nobody should be drinking rubbing alcohol anyway it is an extremely effective and useful cleaning solution. It is not supposed to be a drink. DO NOT DRINK IT

Yeah but some people are going to drink this stuff, whether it be by accident or out of desperation, and i’d like to see those people live.

Someone who’s phone always goes to message bank, especially when you need them. At least call back 5/10 mins later. They shouldn’t have a phone if they don’t answer it.

I almost never answer my phone. I just let it go to voice mail (which I still haven’t set up, it’s been five years, oops) and then text the person.

That seems to be the preferred method for a lot of people these days. I’m guilty of that too, occasionally.

Even worse is when they call you but you just barely miss the call, then you call them back like 2 seconds later and they don’t answer!!!

The Republic of Ireland being called ‘Southern Ireland’, that’s not its name, it’s only been it’s name for slightly over a year from 1921-1922, the country is Ireland, the Republic of Ireland or if you’re speaking Irish, Éire. There’s Northern Ireland, there’s no Southern Ireland.

 

I was watching a documentary by BBC Northern Ireland (who really should know better, it’s the bloody BBC) and at one point they said “in Southern Ireland”. Southern Ireland is Cork and Tipperary i.e. counties that are in the south. 

I hear this a lot from English people, in particular, “what part of Ireland are you from the north or the south?”, I always reply with “the Republic” (whilst brandishing the tricolour that I carry for these special occasions…).

Also, they should know I’m not from Northern Ireland, I don’t have a Northern Irish accent.
