The same could most certainly be said of you. Besides I wasn't talking about on here, this most definitely is not real life.

 

Condescending lefties are another group that annoy me.

 

This is an interesting post, hypo. Are you saying that when you come on here, you don't give an honest account of yourself? That you play a character? When you play this character, is it self-aware?

I am very self aware.

 

You said this wasn't real life. I am interested in how that manifests itself in your case.

 

There are certain events in your posting history I believe to be fictional, so in the recent spirit of reconciliation :D

 

Another pet pap peeve

People who have girlfriends

 

a) who don't post on here

b) who suddenly spring into existence when boyfriend is banned, posting several things in his defence in his own writing style

c) never post on here once he comes back.

 

Another pet hypo peeve

People with memories.

Cyclists who ignore the perfectly good cycle path three foot to their left in the misguided belief that they are some new Bradley Wiggins and that cycling on the road is better for the cadence / wattage output etc. No, you are just a fat middle aged git who is in the throws of a mid life crisis.

 

Cyclists who complain that they do not get enough respect from motorists and promptly jump lights and cycling up the inside of cars at speed - and you wonder why you get knocked off?

 

Cyclists who ride two or three abreast. The outside riders should be legally classified as fair game.

 

Middle Lane drivers.

Drivers that don't indicate.

Drivers that push out of side roads cos they have no patience.

Drivers that stop on a main road to let a driver on a side road out thereby slowing everybody down.

Drivers that get irate when I don't let them push in from a side road. Wait you turn,. If everyone did then traffic would flow quicker and we'd all get there quicker.

Drivers that drive just slow enough so they get across the lights, but you don't.

Drivers that don't give you a wave of thanks when you have waited for them even though they could quite easily have been the one to stop and wait for you.

Drivers that queue jump then force there way back in at the front of the queue (by signalling and moving in without being welcomed to do so) thereby making the queue even longer for those that did queue patiently. ****s.

Drivers that get in the wrong lane at roundabouts, probably because they are queue jumping, but cut you up rather than go round the roundabout again.

Drivers that throw their lit ciggy out of the car window so it hits your window in a flash of embers scaring the **** out of you as you were expecting a firework to hit you as you drove along.

Drivers at the front of the queue at the traffic lights that are too busy chatting and don't see the change of lights. They then go through them fine, but those several cars back don't get across cos you've been a selfish ****.

Drivers that don't join the motorway at a suitable speed similar to the traffic on the motorway casing cars to slow down to avoid them.

Drivers that go less than 55mph on a motorway. You are a danger to everyone else. **** off onto an A road.

Drivers that park on double yellow lines near junctions making it difficult for you to pull out from them safely.

Drivers that overtake you and then pull in immediately almost taking the front of your car off.

Drivers that tailgate, even though there's an average speed limit.

Drivers speaking on their phone whilst driving.

Drivers texting whilst driving.

Drivers that fail to put their lights on when its dark or raining or both.

Drivers that leave their fog lights on when its not foggy.

Drivers that fail to clear their car of ice or snow. Lazy ****s are a danger to the rest of us.

Drivers that cut the corners at junctions nearly taking my front end off. Lazy ****s.

Drivers that slow down to a stop for no apparent reason and without any indication before then finally using the indicator to tell you they won't be proceeding any further. ******s.

Drivers pulling caravans but still going 90mph. And we wonder why there are lots of caravan accidents.

Drivers without insurance. Total ******s.

Drink drivers. Slime of humanity.

 

And I thought I was the only one who's blood boiled at all the above. The top one with them are definitely the cyclists not using the cycle lane, as us drivers have to crawl at your slow speed, That's why the council spent all that money on the lane for your safety and so the traffic moves smoothly.

All of the second posters drive me insane.

Perhaps driving lessons in my day actually made you actually respect other drivers.

a) She used to post on here. We broke up and I remembered her logon.

b) Eh? If you are referring to natsiedoodaa that was me as I already said. I don't have any other account other than that one when I was banned. As I said that was my ex girlfriend's account.

c) The account was banned.

 

I presume you mean this thread:

Other than talking about myself in the third person I don't think I made any particular attempt to hide it. Other than that one time the account was Natasha's.

What's wrong with Farnborough or Aldershot FC then? :)

 

Can't be bothered to give you the full story.

 

Will just sum up.

 

Hated football up until 13 (only watched England matches), then started liking it from playing FIFA with friends.

 

Started supporting Spurs for about 6 months, then Arsenal for a couple of years (never went to any games was purely a glory hunting w*nker).

 

Went to St. Mary's for the first time in May 2005 (V Norwich 4-3) and the rest they say is history.

 

As for not supporting Aldershot or Farnborough, just got no emotional attachment with either of those teams, if I'd gone to an Aldershot game first instead of going to a Saints game it might of been a different story.

 

I always look for Aldershot's results today and I hope they don't go down but I don't support them.

 

Only started properly supporting Saints when we were in the Championship so can hardly be considered a Glory Hunter by anyones standards, more like a Misery Hunter.

People that drive past The Station pub and don't indicate that they plan to go straight up Bullar Road. It's a junction, indicate.

 

Accidents are rarely amusing, and never so if somebody gets injured, but I had to suppress a cackle at that junction when I witnessed one. I was waiting in Bullar Road to head across towards Athelstan, with the Station on my right, two cars in front of me. The bloke at the head of the queue was patiently taking notice of the fact that oncoming traffic wasn't bothering to indicate left that they were coming down Bullar, and the bloke behind him (and in front of me) was blowing his horn for all he was worth. I remember thinking, well if he pulled out and they followed the road round, (which is what the lack of indication indicated if you get me,) he'd be the one causing an accident.

 

Fast-forward two minutes, oncoming traffic dies down for a moment and the first car pulls across the junction. More oncoming traffic, not indicating. Bloke in front of me pulls out anyway at high speed, and collides head-on with an oncoming car that had taken the bend. I stopped to give my name as a witness etc, the bloke who'd pulled out was screaming at the other driver as to why he wasn't indicating right. It didn't seem to calm the situation when I pointed out that he didn't need to given the road layout, in the end the police happened by and sorted it.

Doesn't surprise me at all. I grew up living in Athelstan Road and saw a lot of near misses due to this exact scenario. Quite simply, if you are crossing a give-way line to your left then you indicate left. It's not exactly rocket-science.

That's certainly being weighed into the evidence hypo.

 

The post-natsiedoodaa one that you over-mention also factors in.

Well, BlakeySFC - I don't have the heart to rip you after that candid account.

 

On vicinity, strictly speaking I should have supported Swaythling - but if I'd have done that, I might be an Eastleigh fan by now.

Over mention? Can you find more than two references? I mentioned her once here within a load of other things and last year I mentioned that her dad is from Iraq.

 

Just because people made a huge deal out of it when you I did mention it doesn't mean I do it all the time. Probably the same amount that you mention your wife or kids.

There is a big difference between my potentially made up missus and kids, and your potential made up girlfriends.

 

Mostly it's how we present ourselves. One of the benefits of not being anonymous is that people can say "yeah, I know that nobhead. He's definitely got kids" :) Also, their grandfather posts here.

 

He's probably in on the scam too !

Press conference, which have no point because all of the information has been leaked in advance e.g. Politician and today's example is chris hoys forthcoming retirement press conference. We all know your retiring so save everyone the bother and time.
