Report him to the company! Please, before he kills someone. It is illegal! If the police saw him they would prosecute him because he's a professional driver with the lives of many at stake.

People who do not understand that the definition of a phobia is:
1. A persistent, abnormal, and irrational fear of a specific thing or situation that compels one to avoid it, despite the awareness and reassurance that it is not dangerous.
And persist in explaining how harmless the thing or situation is and how silly I am to be frightened of it. And think that if they keep repeating this long enough I will magically lose my phobia.

You in that car, yes you, the old bloke in the little silver car. You know who you are - you're the one who suddenly hoved into view about a foot from my elbow when I was going down Prince of Wales Road at about 30mph. You're the one with whom I politely remonstrated about passing distance. And the one who moved his hands like a fisherman fabricating tales of his near catch to indicate that he thought a foot was easily adequate.
Read the fucking highway code. Especially the bit about overtaking cyclists. You'll find it says something about leaving the same space you would for a small car. The only small car that'd fit in the space you gave me would have "Matchbox" written on the underside.

TICTH arrving at my office at 7.07am this cold, dark November morning to find Bing Crosby blaring out of the CD player and shedloads of tinsel and scary-ass Father Christmi being unloaded around my desk.
Also TICTH the people from other offices who kept popping their heads round the door to say 'Aaahh, innit lovely?' and 'Ooh, it's Christmas!' No, and no.

Just heard on Animal Planet-- "This is literally a Catch-22 situation!"
Oh, really. So Joseph Heller scripted it, is that what you're saying? Or did you stumble across Youssarian's flight manual?

TITCH the asshats who maintain the grounds of our co-op. They were supposed to work on the lawn and blow the leaves away from the walkways and front porches of the apartment buildings this past Thursday. Every Thursday they're supposed to be hard at work, pruning trees and doing all their landscape things. However, lately they've been slacking off in a major way and yesterday morning... a calm and peaceful Saturday morning... everyone got jolted out of deep sleep at 7:00 a.m. by these morons and their screaming loud leaf blowers! 7:00 in the morning!! On a weekend! And they continued on making an unholy racket for two hours... in a co-op that has only eight buildings! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! I seriously wanted to kill the lot of them.

I am in complete sympathy with you. I once had athlete's foot so bad that I wanted to cut my own feet off! And I still suffer from weird, diabetes-related skin problems--my lower legs have been itching so badly for the last few months... I finally figured out that it's a neuropathic thing and that consuming too much sugar makes the itchiness worse... and I can feel it UNDER my skin! So, itchy sufferers unite!

TICTH the first head cold of the season. Woke up yesterday with a head full of snot and feeling like my entire body had been worked over with a tire-iron. Hubby's got it too, he felt so bad this morning he didn't go duck hunting, so I know he feels like skunk vomit. Stupid germs, stupid cold, stupid mucus, stupid...

You'd like to think so. It's not the experience of most cyclists. If you can get the police interested at all in a incident where no-one was injured, they'll usually hide behind "no independent witnesses". You can even send video evidence and even though you're a lawyer still find the police aren't interested.

TICTH blue Christmas decorations. Blue is not a Christmas colour. It is as appropriate for Christmas as it is for food.
Blue tinsel and baubles are wrong. Blue lights are for emergency vehicles. I saw a blue-nosed Rudolf at the weekend ![[Tear]](graemlins/tear.gif)

I have the same problem. And I am asthmatic on top of it. And I work with kids. So, whenever the latest kid-born virus trots around, not only do I catch it in three seconds, but I can look forward to 2-3 weeks of being a human Pez dispenser of phlegm, and sounding like a bagpipe left out in the rain. So I join and support your consignment.

Piglet, some days I am ashamed to be an Australian. I hate the idea of hoax calls as entertainment. I've always hated prank calls. So much unecessary pain has been perpetrated through this. I am appalled that the hoax was apparently run through the radio station's legal department before it went to air and was passed. I am appalled that the presenters were initially very pleased with themselves about how far they were able to get with it. This radio station has been in trouble twice before with idiotic publicity stunts. I hope their licence to broadcast is revoked and they are made to pay damages to the bereaved family.
I hope laws and protocols are tightened because of this. I hope the hospital AND the radio station are arranging proper counselling for all their staff. I don't want either of the presenters to take the same way out as the nurse - but I suspect their broadcasting careers are well and truly over. The radio's major sponsor has just pulled out, and people are switching off at a great rate.
But more than anything, I want some good to be made to come out of this sick, sad event.
Please don't hate all of us because of these idiots. They've just created their own hell.

TICTH the idiot cyclist who thinks it is OK to ride with lights so bright that people going towards him can't see properly.
Any idea where he got his lights from? I could do with some better ones. Every time a car comes towards me when cycling at night I get blinded and can't even see the verge. It doesn't help that some buggers never dim their lights.

TICTH the flourescent light tube in our kitchen which went 20 minutes before B&Q (DIY superstore, for those not familiar with it) closed - which is 10 minutes' drive away.
And then B&Q for not having the right one (yes I realise that's probably unreasonable, but... but... just but...).
And then me for buying completely the wrong one anyway, meaning we'll have to be sharpish away from our church Christmas meal tomorrow in order to go and get a replacement, otherwise we'll be doomed to use a small bedside lamp forever and ever.
(The big question is, can I work all this into tomorrow's sermon?)

Stejjie--
You could do something on "what do you do if the light in you goes out"...FWIW.

Whatever happened things like, oh, say, directions, paper maps, and road signs? I'm a hardcore technogeek but I don't trust those things. According to most of them my neighborhood doesnt yet exist.
