Unforgivable sin? Dirtbags who throw MacDonald's trash, cigarette butts, beer cans, wine bottles, snot rags, Tampax, paper cups, used syringes, used condoms and all manner of stinking detritus, out their car windows. These cretinous subhumans should be buried alive in their own rotting shit and offered the tube from a used enema bag as a breathing device. (so I can piss down it)

Presumably where it's socially acceptable to drop your shit whenever impulse dictates with the assumption that others will wipe your arse.

Something tells me the answer involves people whining about a lot of random shit and calling it a thread.

Although I must say that this thread certainly has gotten worlds more entertaining. You never know what you're going to find after a two-hour nap.

Y'know, I always thought the idea of only having one unforgivable sin was stupid - you won't catch enough people that way. Far better to have several unforgivable sins, and change them randomly. I also modify whether they're unforgivable according to who it is who's committing them

Current unforgivables include:

• Walking slowly down the pavement and veering from side to side.
• Whining.
• Being an asswipe*.
• Drinking tea.

Offenders will be hunted down and have their skin rubbed off using wire wool. Then I'll set free my specially trained mice, who will gnaw through their chests and allow me to dig out their still beating hearts with a pair of chopsticks.

Whilst the mice are gnawing, I'll be using the bones in the offenders' bodies to conduct stress tests looking how much weight can a bone take before it snaps, and whether surface area of the weight makes a difference (it's all part of my doctoral thesis).

Anyone here who has recently committed an unforgivable?

*This never makes it off the list. Instead the conditions/attributes which make you an asswipe change. And no, I'm not telling you what they currently are, as that would spoil all my fun

I arrange my top sheets on the same "top side up" principle. I have a friend who believes in placing them the other way so that the print (if there is one) shows when you fold the top of sheet down over the blanket. It seems so fussy and wrong to me that when I stay at her house I'm always tempted to correct it and then put it back her way (i.e., the wrong way) in the morning.

Thank you. A week ago my otherwise perfect dinner party was almost ruined by the after dinner necessity to make tea as well as coffee for the tea drinking priss pots who had to have the whole kettle, teapot, loose leaf and strainer shebang. Loose leaves which clogged my tea pot and overflowed all over the counter.

Why on God's green earth do people want that pot of liquid tin can and all it's messy paraphernalia when a good cup of Columbian coffee is what He meant us all to drink! I'm sure it's in the Bible.

Come to think of it, deliberately damaging your car/bike/property comes pretty high on the list.

And then there's those who make a big show of leaving details ... but they're false.

Oh, and fitted frigin' sheets are a work of the devil. I would rather be disembowled by sarkycow than wrestle with a fitted sheet.

As a matter of fact, that quote wasn't really in the Bible at all, as anyone with a pretense to any education should know.

And in an age of free electrons, not to say free radicals, what does a few more lines matter? (Or "do", if it comes to that?) Though if you don't drink tea, you might not get it when it comes to radicals.

Even so, does quoted text count in a post?

1. Leaving your trolley at an aisle end, where it blocks people going past, while you go down the aisle without it.*
2. Leaving one member of the party by the checkout, with the goods on the conveyor while you go back to the shelves for more goods.

Hear, hear! I've been tempted to ring up one of those curry places and say 'I was going to order one of your currys but since your man couldn't be bothered to shut the gate – forget it!'.

I'm so going to try dropping some extra items in there and then watch the fun as they load them onto the checkout. Extra-strong ribbed Durex anyone...?
