I am a cyclist (and a driver) and it drives me mad when cyclists jump lights grrrrr .
In other irritations related news, I got stung by a wasp for the first time in over forty years on Monday. The blackberry bush I planted in my back garden is producing vast quantities of delicious fruit but the jaspers have moved in and are not keen on sharing the bounty. The sting didn't hurt for long but the finger is red, sore, hot (!) and itchy. I expect I'll live but I don't remember the effects lasting this long in the past. Mind you, my hand must have looked enormous and pretty threatening to the wasp so I'm not surprised it defended itself.

My son and I were waiting at the Hope and Anchor lights yesterday, on our bikes, and whilst the lights were still red, four cars just went off down Upper Street regardless. Ironically, this is the one place I have been booked for jumping a red light while cycling.
My point is - it's not just cyclists. And personally, I would never dream of doing it whilst driving a car (that last point is probably irrelevant...)

I totally agree with you. It would be nice if everyone - pedestrians included - could just use the systems as they were intended to be used.

People who do not have their method of payment ready, especially cash, after filling up and then spend 15 minutes wandering aimlessly around petrol supermarkets. Also, people that can't make a purchase without calling someone on their b astard mobile.

My almost 4 year old does have a tablet but we regulate it (inc setting an auto-power off after xx minutes) but is is very easy, too easy & tempting, for parents to use it as a first resort. Modern technology is almost impossible to avoid.
He does play with toys and lego and he loves to be outdoors, especially in our local woods, parks & playground. Even in winter when it's -10000oC and I'm standing there shivering whilst he's joyfully playing on the swings and we'e the only b'stard people in the playground 'cos everyone else is snuggly warm at home.
I read the other day a school in the US has banned phones from classrooms and lo and behold, pupils are more attentative, less irrittable and more chatty with their classmates.
There is some hope, some.

Went into subway on the Barking Road today near Canning Town as I had a delivery nearby and I was due my break, ordered a mega melt which usually comes with Pork sausages and bacon with a poached egg, this one had Turkey sausage and turkey rashers, when I asked why they said it’s what the local community wants, hold on I said I only live down the road which makes me part of the local community, the reply was “ go to a different subway if you don’t like it”

EFL. English Football League. F*ck my dad, you pricks. It's the football league. We invented that shit. You only need to clarify when it's somewhere else. Scottish Football League? Fine. English Football League? That's 33% redundant.
Shite.
Also. I've probably said it before on this thread. Probably like a page ago but anyone on a bike pulling wheelies. Any type of person, any type of bike. But if you're over 15 I firmly, honestly believe that you should be executed in the street.

Private hire/Uber drivers particularly the ones that drive a Prius, they drop off on zig zags/ junctions and I was behind one today who was in the right hand lane of two then turned left hitting and knocking off some bloke on a bike, luckily he was okay. Where do these fûckers learn to drive and what checks are done to see if they are competent to carry passengers. In my job as a van driver I have to have an assessment before I can drive and if I’m involved In an accident regardless of fault I have to have another.

Good point about the dropping off at junctions. I had an accident because someone parked on the right hand curved section of a busy T junction. I could barely see anything to my right and after a lot of aborted attempts to pull out, I edged out and clipped a passing car. My fault but the other driver was sympathetic and agreed that I had had a real job on hands trying to turn right there. Grrrrr.

There was I yesterday, feeling all proud of myself for having mastered the document scanning system at work. I walked back to my desk from the printer, checked my e-mail, and sure enough, the scanned document was there at the top of my inbox. Smiling slightly smugly, I opened the mail only to find - to my dismay - that I had managed to e-mail the document not only to myself but also to a colleague. The document was my contract of employment, complete with salary details .
Luckily, the colleague was a jovial VP (such people do exist) on megabucks.
What am I like?

I went to a decent burger restaurant at lunch today.
There was a family taking up a few tables. A few adults, lots of kids. One of the kids, a little toddler kept breaking free and running around. Annoying but standard.
Was going right across the room to bother some diners over the other side.
So the mum occasionally would pick her up and spin her around a bit. The kid was hyper as fk after that and was straight screaming most of the time. Or running back over to the other bit.
PUT THE KID BETWEEN TWO ADULTS YOU FKING DOLTS.
But that's not even the reason to post. What really pissed me off is that their eldest kid (about 12ish) was in on their laptop the whole time.
You're raising shit kids, you parental fk ups. A laptop in a restaurant. I hope you all fking DIE.
