I hate

Why has "(not) sighted" replaced words like "aware (of)" or "read"?

i.e. "I am not sighted on that report", "Once I am sighted on it we can proceed".

"Cited" would make sense, but obviously means something completely different.

Covers

Those wanky, softly sung, acoustic guitar efforts of classic songs.

The current one that really gets on my tits is this:

Makes me wanna stab a child

I thought the exact same thing watching that advert.

The acoustic guitar used to be so cool. Now it's used as an accompaniment to picnics and flicking twats.

I'm sooo with you on that one. The real problem here is, that you can never ever again listen to the original and not puke... In this particular case I can just about live with that, but many a good tune have forever been ruined this way over the years.

There's a bird that did a few, remember a few years go...couldn't go into a shop or bar(think on a few adverts too) without hearing her - don't know her name

She did a 'Blue Monday' cover and a few Cure tracks amongst others

Awful stuff

^Nouvelle Vague.

Having to be a wanker in rush hour traffic cos nobody lets me out and it's getting close to where I need to change lane, really, cos I have to turn into another direction.

Change lane earlier?

Of course I try to do that, but if sometimes that doesn't work. If you start 500 meters before and nobody is making any effort to leave a gap you then have to force your way out.

Solution: Change to right lane a mile before ;)
Problem: Only works if you know route ;)

The answer is right there... if nobody leaves you a gap, force your way out.

You pay road tax, do whatever you want.

I didn't know road tax covers being a dick. It doesn't say on the form I got, should get my magnifiers out.

I hate having to be a dick. There I said it. Do not like. Do not want. Want to be nice.

Hate it when I get carved up don't want to have to do it to others.

#goes off cries in corner

It's not on the form but is implied, you've seen other people drive, right?

Ow yeah, there's some really narrow roads in Belfast and yet people find the need to park like ****ts everywhere, stick their nose over the lane (did I mention the roads are so narrow a lorry/bus often is on the very right edge/over the lane?)

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. But somehow being a dick doesn't make me feel better.

Though it's nice I can, driving test these days is VERY strict, if you drive that like all the time you'll never get out. Though I do keep reminding myself to check mirrors all the time and indicate.

Oh the driving's terrible up there, I had real Troubles last time I drove in Belfast

^ Lol for NI ref. From what I heard of a friend of mine who took driving lessons in London years ago it could be worse: She said people banged on the door while she was in the L plate instructor car!

Makes Belfast sound good...

Ow and iTunes for windows sucks lemons, it won't sync anymore with my old iPhone on their "new" version.

my dad got chased by a gang of skinheads in a car trying to make him fail whilst on his first driving test.

My experience of driving in Belfast was that 50% of people drive far too fast and 50% of people drive far too slow, and 100% of people can't drive at all.

One of my really good friends lives in Belfast. I went over to see him in my car, first thing he says when I get off the ferry, "Beware! Nobody knows how to drive, everyone drives too fast or slow, nobody indicates, and they'll tailgate you even if they don't mean too!"

He then promptly wheelspins off, cuts across 3 lanes to turn left, and goes and sits on another car's rear bumper while doing 50 in town.

Christ in a blender.

Not that driving tests aren't terrifying enough as they are!

Ha class! Can be worse in Jordan (colleague of mine lives there now) these use a 4 lane road as a 6 lane road...in Malta they drive on the hard shoulder even though that's regularly interrupted by rocks n shit.

Saw a lovely crash fallout, back of a 208 pulverized and one car stuck on right lane indicating. Must've driven into the back of it.

The driving here can be quite entertaining to say the least.

And to add to the hate: R plates. Or being limited to 45 mph and holding people up if there's no slow lane.

Stupid idea! Especially as after 30 minutes rush hour traffic a nice motorway invites to a bit of legal speed (70 mph) but no. Not that my 62 bph doesn't take half an hour to get there lol.
