I hate

I think that’s a shitter rip off of the Virgin trains one which I do actually crack a smile at on occasion

Excuse the shit and crack unintended puns

I have two pairs of these and regret nothing.

Outdoor slippers FTW.

A couple of months ago I was on a virgin train, in quite an emotional state after saying goodbye to a young lady I'm seeing long distance, knowing I wouldn't see her for several weeks. I went to the toilet and it started talking to me in a patronising, "funny" voice, a step too far in my opinion. I flew into a rage and ended up battering the speaker. To Branson's credit, they can really take a punch.

Fuckwits in cars you've never heard of new models of Dacias, Protons, Daewoo, or Godawful Chevrolet bottom of the barrel models - always shite drivers and generally old people driving them. They think they've outflanked the whole of the car industry by getting one of these abominations for less than the price of a used volkswagen - gramps, there's a reason... bet they have a caravan as well... something my mate said, stays on your drive for 11 months of the year, is like gluing an ipod to your hifi.

Given up on relationships I just can't handle the emotional rollercoaster, I really can't be arsed.

Ha, I'm not far off myself. A long distance relationship is a particularly intense rollercoaster. Still worth it so far though. (Despite the occasional need to fight an inanimate object in a toilet).

You can get something for that.....

Incredible

Views on American cheese-style products aside, what kind of sicko puts them in this order. Clearly it should go orange-orange/yellow-yellow. Just not on.

orange-orange/yellow-yellow.

You know what yellow looks like don't you?

I’d say this was something like c0m3y15k0

It's a bike forum: RAL1017/RAL9001

Last car rental I had I was given a Dacia Duster and it was surprisingly ok; the only niggles were the slightly agricultural-feeling clutch, and the brake bite point was weirdly late. I may well be a shite driver, mind.

flies. coming inside the kitchen and not fucking off out again.

We have a handheld Dyson Vacuum cleaner. Insects prepare to meet the vortex of doom.

Moronic traffic light phasing.
Unless I press the button 5 minutes before the light won't go green for me as a pedestrian/cyclist...even though it's green for cars going in that direction.

My brother used to use Scotch Photo Mount or Display Mount (whatever he had to hand) instead of fly spray. Watching some unfortunate blue bottle take one flap and have it’s wings stuck to its body cascading to earth can’t have been a nice way to go.

Haha. I had an old porsche once that you had to get used to second gear on, it was renowned for being uncooperative, fab car though. The best gearbox description was from Jeremy Clarkson who described a Renault Clio’s as like a branch in a bucket of coal. I’ve had that car and he was bang on!

As much as I loath clarkson, that’s pretty great. I’m currently in LA visiting family - been driving their 72 alpha spider a bit. I first drove the car when I was 18 and had just passed my (U.K.) test - it’s gearbox is a vague, mercurial thing, with barely any synchromesh to speak of.

I hate that Virgin Trains stung me for £338 quid for a walk-up return Manchester - London. Actually I don't care because I'm expensing it, but it takes the absolute piss.

I complained on Twitter but they just said that ticketing is confidential and they won't discuss it.

did you look at plane ticket costs?
