Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 6

[Pistol Night]

Mash the go pedal to find out whether they're more serious about not being passed than I am about passing them

Its like playing chicken for middle aged angry driving flogs like me. What a rush.

Doesn't fit the thread but this chat has reminded me of a little story. I once spent like an hour slowly inching my way forward, car by car, overtaking lane by overtaking lane, trying to pass this slow ****er up front. I finally managed to make it to the front only to hear the little shits in the backseat say they need the toilet. I could have left them there on the side of the road.

I like people watching and then making assumptions about their back story, particularly when out on the piss.

I work in public libraries. It's a great job for people watching. Most customers are happy to chat about themselves too.

You could write a book about them..

 

[Neese]

I could.

 

[Billy ray]

you should

"the observations of neese"

One chapter would be all the men in the children's area that I have told to put their dick away and leave before I call the Police.

Another kicking out teens for having sex in our loos.

I understand the mentality. You feel like you've achieved something with every overtake until you get to the front of the slow car. But it probably doesn't get you where you need to go quicker. Definitely not safer.

The fact its happened more than once is absurd. WTF is wrong with some weird scumbags

Whenever I hear rhe word hooligans my mind goes to hundreds of opposing soccer supporters going hell for leather at each other. The video just seems a small scuffle involving a handful of people.

when I hear the word hooligans my mind goes to Bilbo Hicks

We have a double lane at the turn right which leads quite quickly 100m into the expressway on-ramp

My mates favourite saying is ''pick a lane pick a lane '' because
1. the lanes squiggle and if you arent aware you drift into one
2. if you choose wrong you may not get into the expressway on-ramp because my mate will speed up to block you

ie pick a lane pick the lane that you need not one thats convenient

“You can have any lane you like but it’s limited to one mate”

At more than one branch too. It's just a factor when dealing with society unfortunately. Good customers far outweigh he dodgy ones.

 

[phantom13]

And then you get dicked by Sgt Peppers just waiting around the corner

“Get dicked by the sgt peppers” is maybe the best sentence I’ve ever seen on this site. Absolutely pissing myself

 

[GreyCrow]

“You can have any lane you like but it’s limited to one mate”

I think my frustration mostly comes from people either not planning their driving/direction and expecting others to get out of their way

Don't get me wrong. I'm not speeding to do this. I don't speed at all. I just ask to be able to do the speed limit.

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

I think his "Look, I have nothing against Welcome to Country ceremonies, but it would be better if we vetted their speeches" rant was my personal favourite.

Why do people always mount a horse from the left?

The ****????

Uh huh. All true unfortunately.

gotta love traditions that started because guys used to wear swords

I reckon some put their indicator on, count to three and slowly start moving to change lanes, assuming a gap will be made.

That's what the tinterwebz tells me but I still don't understand it. Swords haven't really been a big thing for centuries.

Many traditions have come and gone over the years. Why has this one persisted? My flabber is gasted because I only noticed this the other day.

Horses and riders get trained though

There's no real reason to change something like that

 

[PoppedCorn]

my favs when the left lane ends but its a dotted line, so the person coming over actually has to give way and you dont slow down to let them in and then you get abused if they get in behind you or pull up beside at a set of lights

its then fun explaining if theres no dotted line and it just ends then the person in front has the right of way, but if its a dotted line....you have to give way you ****ing moron as you're changing lanes and you had ****ing ages to actually get across as there is signs for about 600 meters yet you wanted to wait till the last 4 meters.

if you dont know how to drive you should prob catch a bus

 

[JackOutback]

Whatever the letter of the law, if someone needs to merge into a lane and you hold your speed to prevent them getting over, you’re the arseh*le, no two ways about. What’s the goal, to force the lane that needs to merge into a busy freeway to come to a complete stop?
