I hate

I hate all these musicians. Musicians eh? And bands. I hate all these bands too.

You must be incredibly interesting and cool, like everyone in the memes thread

I'm pretty sure @Jonny69 was making a joke at the expense of exatly that conversation. If you're also making a joke, you didn't signal it so well.

Ha, the old failure of sarcasm to come through via the written word - I was indeed attempting to agree with @Jonny69 about everyone boring on over there about whatever bands they did or did not like.

I think a basic propery of the Interweb is that it's missed when it's there and assumed when it isn't.

No need for that kind of talk.

FFS people, you have to use a wink smiley if you're telling a joke.

What's the fucken point of sarcasm if you have to put a big flag next to it saying THIS IS SARCASM

...Whoops, just realised I was probably replying to sarcasm

Really

Lead time on furniture. Don't say it's in fucking stock if it's going to take 8 weeks to deliver, that's not in stock you cunt.

And you only find that out once you added all your delivery details. Cunts.

Past me: "This really important document is important and I will put it right here for when I know I will needs it in 2 months time. I am very clever."

Current me: "Where the fuckity fuck did I put that fucking thing?"

Gout, fuck off you giant fucking clown foot.

Cyclist who jump the cycle lane lights just enough to not be able to see them, then hang about in everyone's way when they turn green. If you're gonna RLJ at least commit to it.

Who the feck thought it was a good idea to have "reactions" to Outlook emails?

Whoever it is can just fuck off.

I don't want work to be like social media.

Ok you have your SUV your dog on an extended leash at full stretch, it’s raining so of course you are carrying a pub parasol around as an umbrella and are standing at a choke point on the footpath. But where to go from there? Add few kg and chub up a bit? Wear the dryrobe? Get some shoes that have a far bigger footprint than your actual shoe size? Bigger phone? Shout? These are all marginal gains..what about a fucking Zorb ball?

All this space is yours for the taking, populated by savages awaiting your colonial land grab

Missed opportunity for a choose life parody

Just look at the size of cars these days...

The increasing popularity of SUVs and trucks on UK roads is a public health hazard in the making. Per annum, the US has double the number of road deaths vs. other developed countries, and thousands more serious injuries from vehicle accidents. Guess what the #1 contributor is? Hint: for every 1 person they ‘save’ in a crash, they kill 12.

Yes the old 'im safer in my big car', at the expense of literally everyone else.

I've noticed more and more of the big flat trucks with aggressive names like 'Raptor' etc near me. I live on a relatively narrow road, so the fella up the road has to park on the pavement, as it's too wide to just be on the road, and too long that it doesn't fit on their drive. An elderly lady on mobility scooter further up the road has to go into the road to get around it.

Yeah, it's an arms race for vehicle size. I'm seeing more of those Raptor "boys toys" fucking twin cab, lifted "work" vehicles over here. They're common in Oz but this is London ffs.

Countries should be banning all production of SUVs. They're the cigarette of the car realm.

I think the cars are a symptom of a land grab mentality

Occupy as much area as you possibly can I think it’s some kind of reaction to the need to leave less impact on the environment.

Not fully up to speed but HMRC tried to return twat wagons from work vehicle to normal big polluting car tax status but shock horror their was an "outcry from the owners" and they back tracked.

AFAIK there's going to be another push to get these cunts taxed as they should be as even normal motorists think they're fucking pricks.

it's an arms race

Symptomatic of American mental state since WW2. Useful (though possibly not ideal) during the Cold War, but dysfunctional ever since the wall came down. It stems from a need for feeling safe, and cuts across all facets of life: someone might hurt me with a gun, so I need my own guns; someone might hurt me in a car crash, so I need a bigger higher car; people are consuming more illegal drugs, so I need more cops with more power and more weapons; a few cunts hijacked and crashed some planes right under my nose, so I need to know everything about everyone at all times; China and others don’t agree with me, so I need to spend even more money on weaponry to make sure I can destroy them if they attack me.

There are alternative routes to every scenario above, but the US always prioritises the one involving reactive violence and force. It’s a goddam mental illness.

I think all that is true, but now maybe they’re just becoming the norm so everyone else will start getting them. A bit like giant phones, and jeans. Hopefully in a few years they’ll get smaller again. Phones, cars and jeans
