People being annoyed about things I didn't even know were things.

Is it just me or does Marian Finucane heavily breathe and wheeze into the microphone like a 60-a-day smoker when her guests are speaking?

She does  and she is. But  she's permanent and pensionable so no matter how bad it gets she's there until retirement.

There was a lad there before, Cathal McGoilla maybe? He was brutal. I had to turn over. I hate that.

Couples on Facebook having a conversation via comments:

Him: first time out with the wife since the birth bla bla

Her: thanks for the date,loved every minute

Him: no probs babes

Feck me you are probably sitting beside each other on the sofa, open you bakes and talk!

Nearly everything on Facebook, especially wishing dead relatives a happy birthday.

I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Facebook gripes could nearly be a thread on its own.

Irish people dumping rubbish by the road side, in rivers and beauty spots. A lovely river close to my place has an ironing board, car battery, car shock springs, bags of dog shite, empty bottles of beers. If caught these bastards should face a firing squad.

Absolute disgrace. These are your peers, friends and relatives.

I played golf in Omagh last weekend - there's a water tap off the back of the 5th green. No fewer than 5 plastic bottles strewn around the floor.
A walk out through Campsie and the Cookstown road. A full box of lollipops just discarded on the footpath, coffee cups and Styrofoam boxes blowing around. It's ignorance in the extreme.

Couldn't agree more. I'm from a scenic country road near the border, and there are regular illegal dumpings. Couldn't come down too heavy on the f**kers

I'm forever lifting rubbish by the road at the front of the house. It amazes me that these tramps go for a feed after a night out and when they are finished eating in the car they just fire the rubbish out the window into the road rather than just take it on home and use their own bin.

I use a wee country road as a rat run outside Armagh, on the way to work, and there is always crap dumped by the roadside - at the minute it is broken insulation boards.

Speak to the Greens committee.

Though to be fair, 5 ain't bad. I would say the outrage threshold should be 15.

I went out to clear the rubbish along our land over easter, had 7 full fertiliser bags and didn't get to do half of it, shocking stuff
Excuse me for talking while you're trying to interrupt me

The DUP getting away with everything - they are currently untouchable;

RHI and the numerous items surrounding it; Planning scandals; Vote leave DUP /Tory Dark Money; Racist / homosexual comments ..........

I am not sure if as a result of any scandals has anyone resigned (&not been reinstated) or sacked ..... can you imagine if you did any of these things at work ...P45 on the way
