General Chit Chat

Is people's driving always this bad over the holidays?

Just before xmas got scraped while parked by someone who plowed through a few cars then ended up in the river. At the moment it seems like people are all either lost or drunk or both. There was even a pileup on my way to Sainsbury's which meant I had to go to Asda instead.

Madness!

I nearly knocked someone over yesterday

Can't blame booze, perhaps the sun in my eyes but mainly poor judgement on my behalf. If you happen to be readin this - I'm sorry and the V's you gave me were fair enough

"Your current position in line is 31"....Strange, I had no such wait when you wanted my money, charlatans.

Two and a half hours later....

I know! As if Asda is even remotely a substitute for Sainsbury's!

Amen, Bruh!

In case that was sarcasm, it was a big Sainsbury's and a medium-sized Asda, B&M didn't have what I was looking for, Lidl was shut, I was in the wrong lane for Morrison's, the big Asda was too far and Waitrose would have meant traffic. I hope this demonstrates the severity of the situation!

Hope that wasn't up Plodder Lane H.G. Some walloper in a black 4x4 almost took out me and the dog at the lights up near the ambulance station turn off. We were walking down the Lane and stood at the lights waiting to cross the road there and, when they changed to red a car drove up and stopped. We stepped out across the front of it and I had to dive forward and drag the dog across the road as this idiot came tearing up the outside lane and turned right almost on two wheels. If I'd been a couple of seconds later there was no way on earth they could have stopped in time at that speed. Didn't slow or stop after turning right, just roared off like a maniac. Course, when they do hit or kill somebody it will be the other person's fault, that's a given.

Not Harry - probably his brother from what I hear.

I see this feck* has been tempting fate given the events os the calendar year.

[Prufrock]

2016 has only bothered with the talented.

[Bruce Rioja]

What a day to come down with manflu. Have even had to cry-off attending BB's wedding.

Clearly. Wednesday and I'm driving down the M40 through Oxfordshire in the dark with fog bringing visibilty down to 50 metres in patches and it's -2 degC. That very morning a woman had been killed in a 20 car pile-up on the adjoining A40.

Aresholes think that it's still OK to drive at high speed. Wankers.

[Hoboh]

I'm sure this is so important it is going to cure the world of many ills, not.

They should triple the fees!

[Lord Kangana]

Duly bookmarked for when they end up as your carers in a few years time.

By the time I need them the pill option will be available which will be a blessing.
There are good carers and bad/bit part players who treat the old like lumps of meat now, wouldn't want to tempt fate by requiring a 'flake to wipe one's ass would you?

[Lord Kangana]

If you're into that stuff, then so be it, who am I to judge, but I'd prefer it if they just used toilet roll in all honesty.

Old people do not count in the snowflake world, the young think the aged are a burden, they know everything 'cause it was on Facebook, whilst being happy to suck up money and inheritance as their divine right.
You were talking about carers matey and that's the sort of work they do.

[Lord Kangana]

So the definition of a snowflake now broadens to anyone who doesn't look after the elderly.


Are you now working in a care home I take it?

Found out what created the snowflake generation during discussions over the New Year, must admit it made sense.

Hard work care homes if run right.

No, I don't work in one the pay is lousy for starters and unlikely to improve because the 'flakes think any cash should be for them.

Anyway if I was a young 'flake today I'd be more worried about this;

Sorry, low pay in elderly care homes is also the fault of snowfakes?

One could be tempted to conclude these snowflakes are actually a bunch of geniuses, having had such a large impact on everything everywhere simultaneously in such a short lifetime. No?

Products of a bunch of supporting hail stones who started the rot.

Do we have a wikipedia link to get me up to speed on the nomenclature of groups I should hate and blame for everything? Only I don't read The Daily Mail so I feel at a disadvantage on the subject. (obvs no need to include the dastardly EU!)
