    Do you know one ? Could be a neighbour ? Could be in work ? Examples... Speak extra loud in public chastising their children for being children, Residents Association Types, Curtain Twitchers etc, Squeaky Clean, Tut Tut ! The worst have a similar spouse and are a pain in the arse. He scolded me last week for forgetting to take in my bin because I went away for the weekend ! I told him I was proud for remembering to put it out in the first place !
    He always wears a v neck jumper and a tie and sweeps the path outside his house at 8.15 every sat morning. I know the sound of a yard brush !
    I find him funny now !

    Yup, know exactly what you mean. The 'holier than thou' person that takes the high moral ground on everything, you'd swear they were a HR manual. Never encountered such a person in real life, but you come across them from time to time online.

    that's what happens to some people when they haven't got the ride in 14 years.

    While I agree with most you said, what's wrong for parents keeping their kids in line in public? Much better than the alternative of parents who feign ignorance as their brats run wild in restaurants, shops etc.

    But to bring one up, I was house sitting my granny's house a few years back. The neighbour is an absolute dickhead who was always making sure every blade of grass was in line, that sort of thing. I was out the back once when he was doing the cleaning, and he was leaning out the top window, with one of those hand held hoover things, vacuuming underneath the windowsill. Headcase.
