    1. The 1st traffic light i have on my commute remains red for at least another 2 minutes when you arrive.
    2. The complete and utter idiot who didnt stop at the line, and thus on the sensors in the road, at above traffic light so the light probably would still be red now if i hadnt get out of my car to point it out to the ****wit.

    This happened to me at a humpbacked canal bridge in deepest Offaly. I'll forgive the driver as they were French tourists. But as the lights changed the fcukers behind nearly drove over me as I was trying to get back in the car.:mad:

    There seems to be a mania for ripping streets at the moment and for using traffic control lights that take a geological age to go from red to green.

    Ignorant people who barge into you and just expect you too move out of the way for them, not happening love.

    "Noy". It absolutely drills through my brain. I just cannot listen to any Nordie accent. Painful.

    Got the windscreen replaced on the car a month or so ago. Like a new car!

    Driving behind a quarry truck earlier, and even keeping my distance, I saw a rogue stone bounce out of the trailer and careen into my lovely new windscreen. Only left a minute scratch, but now of course I cannot take my focus off the mark when I am driving.

    People may late late twenties who share meme about it being great when they were a teenager because there was no mobile phones or social media. When i fact there was and they had/used them.
    Also when they share memes about being about to into the shop and buy crisps, a can of coke, a bar of chocolate, loads of penny sweets and still have change out of 20p!

    I'm not in anyway a germ freak but apart from looking silly, I'm not entirely convinced of the cleanliness of them.

    Arwen and Beren are both from Tolkien. Nala is Swahili for "Gift". But I suspect was just lifted straight from The Lion King :pac:

    Actually, there's a related TA - a neighbour of mine named their dog Simba. Simba is literally Swahili for "lion", why would anyone call their dog that???

    Just got whistled at by a group of travellers. Not sure whether to be flattered or offended but sure we’ll take it.

    It's my sister's hen this weekend. We're not close and I haven't seen her for four months. I'm absolutely dreading it. My aunt and my cousin will be there and they are the types to be botoxed and false eyelashed and hair extensioned to the max, and they look down their noses at everyone, it's all about who you know and your career trajectory with them. I am a fat ugly mess who is staying with my parents and currently unemployed. I would do anything to get out of this night. My sister wouldn't even give a sh1t if I went or not but my mother would be put out if I didn't. I have a chest infection and I'm sorely tempted to be too sick to go.
