cyclist who have mega uber super mega lights on their bike an who aim them up so as you go past them you get sun burnt an your eyes fall out

now i run 3 lights on my pedeller, a 300 lumen , an x2 5000 lumen (supposedly) lights

i only use the super bright ones when there is no-one about as it blinds people - you wouldn't drive around with full beam on would you?

so what is grinding your gears?

Epilepsy inducing flashing cycle lights.

I live next to a junior school and the local swimming pool is the other side of the road (the road being a 20 Mph residential cul-de-sac), they make all the kids dress up in hi-vis vests, with hi-vis markers on their kit bags, and then hold hands in a massive long train to walk the 25 meters to the pool............. health and safety gone mad.

Horse shit on the roads round here grinds my fucking gears, huge piles of slippery crap that seem to always be spread all over nice fast corners. This entire fucking area is surrounded by bridleways why the fuck do they need to take their worthless walking lidl lasagne to shit all over the sodding road.

Why is because you saw it.

Same with pedalist lights.

The apparent emerging tendency for German car manufacturers to only fit turn signals as optional extras that almost no-one is prepared to pay for.

people who think you are evil for not liking the greed and gluttony inducing "festive" period. please I would rather blow my brains out than try and enjoy this despicable stolen religious ceremony about person who even if he did exists could not have existed until 4 years after the supposed date and was most likely born in November. beyond that all seem to have done is cause war, killing and maiming - not something I want to be acquainted with.

Strange how they'd scrimp on such a thing when they must spend so much on those fucking huge magnets that make the car gravitate towards filtering bikes.

Parking on pavements really tweaks my nipples.

Why park on the pavement when there is a road?

Reversing out of a drive also makes me seethe, my daughter was almost mown down some year ago by a twat in a van trying to do 40mph+ backwards out of a drive onto a main road, when I shouted out to my daughter to stop he got rather aggressive with me as he thought I was shouting at him.

It may take a little bit longer to back into a drive but no time at all to drive out when required.

When using a driveway, reverse in and drive out if you can.

Mrs Borg is a forward-in, reverse-out. But then, she drives so slowly that there's usually an Impreza up her arse[*] when she gets home, and she gets all flustered, bless her.

[*] 3 of them in our street, well classy, us.

It's not the manufacturers but it's the level of arrogant twat who gravitates towards them and buys/drives (company car, don't give a toss as it's not mine, free maintenance, make way you oik). These people annoy me*.


*Grinding my gears is too American for me.

I think your missing the point.

It's not about killing or maiming, it's about getting pissed mid-morning and eating an entire Toblerone for breakfast - guilt free.

The increasing trend to blame one of the following groups for all of societies problems.

- Obese people (New in this week at No.1)
- Immigrants
- Asylum seekers
- People on benefits (An old favourite)
- The unemployed
- Binge drinkers
- People of a higher or lower "class"
- Smokers (How dare they buy a legal product!)
- Motorists
- Muslims (Most time spent in the charts)

If I hear someone moaning about any of these groups I instantly know that they are pig ignorant prole. Thumbs Up
