#Faceplam!

But on here, somebody made a single comment, in a rant thread, directed at nobody in particular, and suddenly people are all affronted.

Where did that happen sorry?

Yeah, I saw that. My presumption was that itsbruce was calling the people who agreed with James1822's point "precious, over-sensitive cocks". On re-reading, I might be wrong, and he was calling out the people disagreeing with that point.

I was asking for clarification because if my original assumption was correct then I think itsbruce has misrepresented the way the argument has developed. If I am wrong though, then he's correct.

I am very firmly in agreement with James1822's point, which I've made clear in the Bad Cyclists thread.

/extremely boring attempt at clarity
/agressive feminism

Meh, I think it's fairly natural to look at people, I don't think I'm some kind of pervert but my eye's momentarily been caught before.

I can't imagine anyone who's really rubbernecking as they pass ladies will last long on London roads though, they'll be 2D under a bus or have their face squished up against the back of a taxi in fairly short order.

Got DAS'd by a black guy wearing glasses at the lights on ladbroke grove this morning, was especially surprised as he was working on an electrical box

I was responding negatively to mistertea's comment. HTH.

Cool, I just wanted to be sure I wasn't jumping down your throat incorrectly - I misread your post so I'm glad I paused to think.

Got DAS'd by a black guy

isn't it frowned upon to point that out?

No more than

Got DAS'd by a ginger bloke

I should hope

isn't it frowned upon to point that out?

I don't see why it should be, it's a pretty important thing to know when identifying someone.

OK, go back to the last 1257 pages and point out how many times someone said "I spotted this white guy...."

Maybe people should but with about 80% of the uk being white British I guess I just assume people are that unless someone says otherwise, I know I shouldn't but I guess that's how my mind works right now.

Yesterday working on some traffic lights in Ladbroke Grove area, spotted a racially ambiguous dude (sort of like a member of DeBarge) on what might have been a Dolan. My DAS and was kindly obliged.
About an hour later saw another kid, must have been Dominican or maybe Moroccan, certainly wasn't Dikembe Mutombo black like me at the next junction.
I'd say let's form a gang but Ohana already exists.

Good article, he's right. I remember old Top Gear, it wasn't shit.

I'd forgotten about Angela Rippon! The thinking man's crumpet.

I've said too much, but this was the '80s.

Think you'll find they actually pushed it all the way to three, just to look like the total over the top cunts they are.

^^^^ then watch 5th gear
