YESTERDAY, WE GAVE you ten mildly infuriating things that can almost ruin your day.
Now we’re lightening the mood a little bit – here are ten things that would put any Irish person in great form altogether.
1. When the bus fare machine is broken
And the driver happily waves you on. They know.
2. Finding something great on the sale rail in Penneys
You’ll be saying “Thanks, Penneys! €4!” until you’re blue in the face. AND YOU’LL LOVE IT.
3. An unexpected cup of tea, just when you needed it
Some people in your life have a sixth sense when it comes to tea. You da real MVP, brewmaker.
4. No queues in Lidl/Aldi
So rare, we almost don’t believe it when we see it.
5. Saying ‘feck it’ and having a crisp sandwich/chicken fillet roll for lunch
I’M AN ADULT! NO ONE CAN STOP ME EATING JUNK!
6. Coming into money
Payday. Getting €20 in a birthday card. Finding €2 on the ground, a fiver in your coat pocket, or even just an unexpected €10 still lingering in your wallet.
7. When there’s just enough milk left to colour your tea
It’s OK to be a little selfish once in a while. (Just don’t put the empty carton back in the fridge.)
8. When a midweek session is cancelled
And you can watch whatever awful movie RTÉ is showing that night, in your jammies, with a bag of jellies. Plus, no work hangover the next day.
9. Getting a good deal on petrol
And then telling everyone about it.
10. And when no one sits beside you on public transport
It might be because you smell. But it might also be because the gods decided you needed all that space to yourself.
