Having watched my first MOTD of the season (don't acknowledge the football season until October) the new Newcastle strip without stripes on the back is extremely annoying and confusing.3

Car drivers that do acknowledge me but do it by just raising one finger off the steering wheel. What's that all about, are they giving me out or something? I guess any more movement would exhaust them.MrOneLung said:Car drivers who don't acknowledge me.
I don't mean when I let them through. I mean when they let me through, I give the wave and I want them to do the same back so I know they appreciate my original acknowledgement.2 -

People driving 4x4's, or more often People Carriers, who drive down little country lanes and wont move over for fear of scratching their precious 15ft wide vehicle which they use to collect a "lIttle Princess" (according to the notice in the rear window), and dont know how to reverse back into a passing space, which means that you have to squeeze past and scrape your car into the bushes in order to get by, and never any form of acknowledment like a wave, then you travel another 50 ft and come across ANOTHER "Precious Angel" sitting ALONE in another Huge people carrier and you have to repeat the whole bloody exercise again, and then you think thats it and go round the next bend and come across a People Carrier and a Ocado/Tesco van (using a road far too narrow but its been recomended on the SATNav, and they have to deliver Kumquats to CHezNous up the lane,) going in opposite directions and neither can get past the other and theres also a orange Skip Lorry waiting behind them, and they have all been slowly edging backwards and forwards for the past 3 days and all are probably stuck there for all eternity, so you have to reverse back to a space where you can turn round and then come across ANOTHER people carrier with the driver wearing sunglasses in the rain, chatting to her mate on the mobile, with Jocasta in the back seat, in the middle of the lane coming the other way............OH it makes me mad!!!14

You should try living in North London mate. I would estimate that 1 in 10 people acknowledge you if you wait/let them through. You'd be unlikely to receive a response to thanking them as they won't understand what you're doing.MrOneLung said:Car drivers who don't acknowledge me.

Again - Foggy morning, utter twat in grey car with no head lights on.
Why in rainy weather does the traffic volume increase, are there people who stay in when its nice weather, but when it rains just have to go out. WTF?0 -
The lack of distinction between uninterested and disinterested. Uninterested means you don't care, disinterested means you are impartial, like a referee. The fact that the dictionary has started saying there is a second meaning for disinterested drives me nuts, it's a usage that has come into play by everyone getting it wrong. Like how Jamie Redknapp has single-handedly introduced a second definition of 'literally' purely by being a moron1

Disinterested also means 'uninvolved' and 'dispassionate', as in, 'can't be arsed' - an appropriate summary of much of our play before Jacko and Moussa came on yesterday vs Fulham.Garrymanilow said:The lack of distinction between uninterested and disinterested.

Just heard on the news, a tory MP, (did not hear his name), said they should stop fuel allowance for OAP's, (yes I am one), he said most would probably be dead by the next election and the rest will probably forget (dementia), which party brought it in. Disgusting comment, not the fuel allowance but regards to OAP's.0

Go Compare have also come up with a new series of crap adverts to maintain their dire reputation. The only advert that I really like at the moment is the Ford one with the little boy looking for the orangutan in the back of the car- Oobedooo I wnna be like you......!suzisausage said:

"If you did it now, chances are that in 2020 someone who has had their winter fuel cut might be thinking, 'Oh I can't remember, was it this government or was it the last one? I'm not quite sure."

it's the sort of thing I expect companies/governments/newspapers/friends and families to say behind your back. ie I'm not naive enough to think that governments and big businesses don't think like that about the electorate or their customers, but am surprised they would say it in the public arena1

Just whilst I'm on this thread - I'm at work, I was on the phone, mispronounced a word, everyone around me jumps on it. Who cares? Very annoying, people that are listening out for meaningless errors just so they can make their little joke2

It's so tiresome. The people that tend to do it are also repeat offenders. In my head I want to lob my laptop at them, but I also want to show no reaction, so as to not rise to it.Greenie said:

Its sad isn't it, they obviously admire you to such a degree that they are just looking for the chink in your armour.

Agree that is a great advert. The look on the boy's face when he finds it is a picture. While on this thread the M25,dog shit on pavements, Chelsea, Americans, speed cameras & fucking Russell Brand.Halix said:
