Title: TGI Friday
Post by: TeaLeaf on November 21, 2008, 03:55:08 PM
Why does the start of the weekend always bring out the idiots?  Take for example the guy I just met.

I was at my local shops and stopped on the left of the local road to wait for a car to reverse out of a car park space which I was then going to drive into to park.  A gentlemen walks through the line of cars on my left and then walks around my car to the other side of the road and gets into his car which was parked on the opposite side of the road.  He then promptly reverses straight backwards into my car and makes a right royal mess of the driver's side bodywork.  God help us all, how do these idiots get a licence?

I am convinced the majority of people are idiots, just the thought process some people need to go through amazes me.
For instance every day whilst travelling on the tube I get caught up by people who have got as far as the gates, then stop to retrieve their ticket. I mean come on!! what else did you expect to be doing before you got to the gate??

Another thing that convinces me is advertising and goverment warnings etc that people take on board with out even registering the swimming baths I go to are usually quite reasonable it terms of space to swim then kellogs launch a swimming for familys thing and the pool is stuffed...
It was as if they had never even thought about swimming before, imagine them picking up the box

Hmmmmmm, Swimming fancy that

The worst thing is I am not surprised someone walked past your car and then reversed into it..

I drove past a lorry on the motorway the other day, the driver was in the middle lane overtaking another lorry whilst on the phone and leafing through paperwork on the steering wheel.

I have also passed no end of people reading the paper whilst driving.

Bloody idiots the lot of them!!!
