Little things that irk you.. (no swearing please)

More animal woes.

Another piggie has conjunctivitis.

One of the cats has to have an operation tomorrow on her eye.

I'll be fretting about that all day.

[kryss]

Aw Prinny, not a good week for you.

[prinnysquad]

Irrespective of the emotional pisscoaster, it's also amounted to ?600 in two weeks!

At this rate I'll have to sell my sweet ass down Hartlepool docks.

Walking into a coffee shop with 2 colleagues. Every ****ing seat, sofa or table had some selfish ****er or pair of ****ers using double the seats they require.

Trying to revise for exams with a noisy neighbour next door.

People handing out leaflets. It makes getting from A to B a complete minefield. They all seem to congregate outside the student union too. Even the Green Party were ironically insisting on handing me slides of tree today.

Sometimes I feel like Solid Snake trying to get to my lecture, carefully planning my route through the leaflet people, hiding behind other people, waiting for the leaflet people to turn around before making a dash for it etc.

This could've turned into an irk but it didn't:

Man at work: "Can you come upstairs and remove the paper tray from the printer?"
Me: "Just pull it out"
Man: "It won't come out"
Me: "It will, I did it a little while ago. Just pull it towards you."
Man: "...No"
Me: "Yes"
Man: "No"
Me: "No what?"
Man: "No, it won't come out"
Me: "Are you using both hands?"
Man: "Yes. It won't come out"
Me: "How are you using both hands and talking to me on the phone? Are you on speakerphone?"
Man: "No. Let me put it on speakerphone..."
*sound of paper tray being removed*
Man: "Oh, it's out. Thank you!"

The Video Game Authority, VGA.

A bunch of people giving a game a rating and charging for it. Then sellings whacking the prices up of said games because they have a 'professional' rating.

Don't get me started on these muppets. Though I still laugh about the responses from them when asking for evidence in how they were qualified to come up with these gradings.

Obnoxious teenagers on buses with noise emanating from tinny speakers on their mobiles on crowded buses. Its usualy not just one its 3 of them playing different noise to boot as well :S

[charlesr]

What bugs me (well, one thing) about the VGA is that it's provided in a sealed case, so as far as you know, they've removed the box contents, replaced the insides with newspaper for weight and sold the contents on ebay

I think that people are just irked that they didn't think of it first.

[sj33]

I just leave them to it. If they want to pay a hefty premium just because their already new, sealed, mint game has been throw into a plastic box, more fool them.
