Pet Peeves

Neil Delamere is a sneaky sneak.  He'll wait for someone funnier than him to say something funny and then jump on it and modify and regurgitate it.  Sneaky sneaky.

Nothing worse...Paul Merton can do that sometimes as well although he can be funny enough in his own right....

[Pedrito]

It would be incredibly difficult to do,  no doubt about it.  I still think that's no excuse for the 90% of unfunny crap that you see.  So many cliches getting recycled by so many boring twats, and worse,  being laughed at by thick cunts who are more than happy to laugh at the same joke over and over.  Is Trump thick? Really? Does he have a big orange face and a comb over? Really? Thanks,  I hadn't noticed that and the penny hadn't yet dropped in the past three years of every fucking comedian pointing it out at every given opportunity! Oh, your granny is from India and speaks like what exactly? How novel! What,  something about your period? How utterly outrageous! Just an endless stew of sameness.

100% no excuse. I couldn't agree more with everything you mention above. Any of those topics start rearing their head in a sketch and I'm gone.

Cunts trying to start a converastion with you when you're wearing headphones. Fuck off!!!

I had this last Friday evening as I walked across town for a few pints after work. I'd had a long week and was in the form for a few beers and chilling out.

Listening to music on headphones, spacing out as I went on my way from the office when out of nowhere this Church of Latter Day Saints with his name badge, back pack and healthy American teeth starts walking alongside me and talking - none of which I can hear because of the headphones which I indicate to him. He put his hand on my shoulder to get me to stop/slow down to which I shot him a look but I didn't say anything. He backed off and I went on my righteous way to the pub...

... where I felt guilty for not stopping to listen to his bullshit.

For the third of the pint anyway.

Hand in front of your fave, Touching or any type of blocking is looking to get a dig. They can fuck right off with the cuntery.

This is well trodden ground but...

Cunts in the cinema.

Jesus wept. You've paid a decent amount of money to come and watch a film. Watch the fucking thing!

[John Kimble]

Absolutely. Particularly these days when it costs a small fortune to go to the cinema. Equally infuriating is the staff's general reluctance to do anything about it. I just tend to avoid the cinema during weekends or anytime likely to attract teenagers.

Can be a particularly infuriating experience in Limerick cinemas when a bunch of the local caravan enthusiasts wander in 15 minutes after a film has started and proceed to chat full volume across aisles to each other.

Heh heh.

Same in Cork. The biggest and probably best equipped cinema is in Mahon Point which is right next to a caravan ranch.

You have no choice but to pick a seat in there these days. I was at some film recently and, like that, they arrived in and started immediately.

"Iss fu-rry dark in huur. Sit done duur. No, duur!"

Somebody asked them to be quiet or something.

"Fuck you and your shushin'"

Then a couple arrive in with teenage kids - "Sorry I think you're in our seats".

"We're sittin' huur, sit done duur. Or over duur."

"Sorry now but we booked those seats."

"We'll wuur sittin' huur."

You man gets a cinema employee who tries to reason with them. (The trailers have started now).

Don't forget that we have a Nespresso bar in the lobby.........

"You went and got tha' man (the cinema employee who was no more than 20 and about 7 stone) to get us to move ouhha hour saaaaates?! Yeh horrible bastard yeh." and then drops into a boxing stance and goes "Big brave man!"

In the background there's an ad for Bank Of Ireland mortgages on the screen now........

The cinema lad goes "If I could just see your tickets..."

"Ask humm fur hus tickeh! Why are you asking me?! Ask hum first!"

So the young lad asks the family man who produces four tickets.

Lifestyle Sports for all your tracksuit and white Nike Air Max needs.........

"We're noh moo-hoo-vin!"

"Could I see your tick..."

"DIS is my FUCKIN TICKEH!" and puts a fist close to the young fella's face. Then sits back down.

The young lad looks at the family and then leaves - I don't blame him, I wouldn't fancy getting hit by a Hi-Ace Pilot for my part-time job either.

The family find other seats and just sit down.

The film starts.

"Yeh rat! Yeh ratted us! You're dead after this."

This prick is still goading a guy who has come to see a movie with his kids.

Nothing happens for about 20 mins. Then... in the darkness;

"DIS IS PURE SHIT!" and up they get and start to leave (noisily) but not before throwing a massive bucket of Coke/Fanta/Sprite/piss in the general direction of the poor fucker whose seats they were in.

And that is why I don't really go to the cinema any more.

[Ollkiller]

Ah good ould Mahon Point. Lovely seats, great screens and sound system all ruined by tracksuit zombies. If there's anyone round me talking when the film starts they are told in no uncertain terms  to shut the fuck.

[The Heretic]

I generally find that when you stand up to these knuckle draggers they usually back down....most are fat out of shape buffoons...

[StoutAndAle]

You don't need to be that fit to swing a slash hook. 

[Makeshiftatomsmasher]

Permanent tsb. Can access  my accounts online with pc/laptop. Try and do it on the phone and that option isn't there. Need  the app which has mixed views at best.

How come when you want to buy a CD cheap on eBay it's at least a tenner plus couple of quid for postage but when I try and sell one I'm lucky to get a pound?
