Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

"of course you didn't know this and you are also probably american and have no real concept of driving fast. "

Note to tpp: get the fuck out of the fast lane and you wont get killed. Also, get to a dentist.

yeah i'm sure.

I'm basically cool with Excel, despite the formatting annoyances and the fact that casual oversights can result in mighty fuckups (who hasn't forgotten to sort their print areas and accidentally printed a modest spreadsheet over 200 pages?). Word is definitely the devil tho, no piece of software goes more out of its way to make things hard for you.

like i said i've been brought up using only word and it kinda does it all for me at this stage.

access is kinda great too, as a fairly untaxing office worker type user.

oh man. Access *shudder*

brits who correct you if you use 'americanisms'

at least u acknowledge that they're correct

people who yell from their cars that they can fix the dent in my bumper, leave me the fuck alone.

the once a year bike commuter jerk who locked up sideways in our overcrowded bikeracks, thereby taking up 5 spots.

ok that's a bit lol though

better than the person who parked sideways across the five disabled car spaces at our local A&E ward last friday and stayed there for two hours.

cos i mean trump that one

agreed. he triple locked the bike. he left his arkel panniers on the bike. srsly wtf.

hired three bikes for the day on sat, was instructed to leave the bikes locked to a lamppost at the end of the trail, helmets, rain gears etc underneath with the keys to be left in the panniers.

Surveyor guy at work who turned on his laser measurement gadget and started waving it around at eye height while I was stood right in front of him (and no, he hadn't asked me to get out of the way or anything). I guess I'd know about it if it had done any damage, right?

Rand Paul, for being an ignorant toad

Rand Paul and I are trying to remember why Harlan, Kentucky, might be famous. That's where Paul is driving me, on a coiling back road through the low green mountains of the state's southeastern corner, in his big black GMC Yukon festooned with RON PAUL 2008 and RAND PAUL 2010 stickers. Something about Harlan has lodged itself in my brain the way a shard of barbecue gets stuck in one's teeth, and I've asked Paul for help. "I don't know," he says in an elusive accent that's not quite southern and not quite not-southern. The town of Hazard is nearby, he notes: "It's famous for, like, The Dukes of Hazzard."

jfc

Paul believes mountaintop removal just needs a little rebranding. "I think they should name it something better," he says. "The top ends up flatter, but we're not talking about Mount Everest. We're talking about these little knobby hills that are everywhere out here. And I've seen the reclaimed lands. One of them is 800 acres, with a sports complex on it, elk roaming, covered in grass." Most people, he continues, "would say the land is of enhanced value, because now you can build on it."

he is truly a disgusting savage

The woman I saw today that was at least 7 months pregnant and was smoking a cigarette.

-me

I just poured capn crunch on my oatmeal

bein too harsh on yrself and oatmeal both

people who go to predominantly black nations and take pictures of running black children

I have probably savaged them before, but...

People who send every single email message as HIGH IMPORTANCE! regardless of how important or urgent it is: DISGUSTING SAVAGES

ugh yes

and add people who send mails about losing their car keys to the entire staff list, although there are 8 offices on it.

but that may be a litle me-specific

Can we have a short discussion about people who text message during movies?

Like why it's not socially acceptable for me to punch them in the back of the head and go, "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!"

They're probably not even texting.

They're probably TWEETING. #spoilers

And you know, this only happens when I see like Pirahna 3D or Sherlock Holmes or Avatar and not when I see The Secret In Their Eyes or Moon or the Metropolis remaster.

Like if I'm going to see a movie, it can't be any dumber than The White Ribbon if I don't want some dipshit's cellphone screen strobing at me in the dark 20 times?

i think it IS socially acceptable for u to donkey punch them

just been donkey punched while watching piranha 3D wtf is up w/kids these days

ppl who try to get on the train before letting people off

People who go to meetings or to take a shit or whatever, and leave their phones on their desks, which then proceed to go off with the most irritating loud ringtone.

morrissey

lady sitting next to me at the food court your kid has obviously crapped his pants plz go change him or sit somewhere else an stop harshing my food buzz tbh

Disgusting savagery with a little bit of kinda lol but mostly sad thrown in:

People who hang around outside subway stations, places of gatherings (and in the middle of the day, not after parties/outside bars/etc.) who try to hand people cards with the address of their blog on it (and not printed flyers, but sheets of paper with the address handwritten on it).

I have seen two of these in my life.

People that chew with their mouth open in public.

People who crack the spine of books that you lend them. This drives me nuts. Spinecrackers fuck you!

oh fuck those guys for real

My mother-in-law is the worst at this btw. She'll take books away with her when I'm not there, new stuff I've not even read myself yet, then bring them back a few weeks later, totally fucking trashed and say stuff like 'I borrowed this the other day thanks for that but it wasn't really my thing have you read it yet?'. Grrr!

people who eat beef without mustard:

Having an appointment at a city tavern one day, [English stage actor Charles Mathews] was shown into the commercial room, where a traveler was regaling himself upon boiled beef. Casting his eyes upon the table, he observed he was not using mustard; this put him into a fidget. He took up a newspaper and tried to read, but spite of him his eyes would wander in the direction of that mustardless plate. At length he could endure it no longer. "I beg your pardon, sir," he said in his mildest accents, "I don't think you are aware that you have no mustard?" The man stared, nodded, and went on with his meal. Mathews again took up the newspaper; but again the abnormal sight irritated him beyond endurance, and advancing to the table and slapping it with his hand, he called out sharply, "Are—you—aware—sir, that you are eating beef without mustard?" Again the man stared without deigning a reply. This was more than Mathews could stand. Rushing to the side-board, he snatched up a mustard pot, and clapped it down in front of him with, "By ***, you SHALL take mustard!" But he did not, and Mathews in a towering passion summoned the waiter, and desired to be shown into another room, remarking that he had never been in the company of such a disgusting savage before, and that he was quite sick at the revolting sight.

People that refuse to physically walk up or down an escalator when an arriving train can be heard, effectively blocking everyone stuck behind them from a shot at making the train.

someone should invent a motionless escalator of sorts. it would be wider, safer (no moving parts!), and less congested than the traditional escalator, allowing impatient travelers to sidestep the slowpokes and hurry up and down floors with ease. I dunno if there's a market for it (what with 95% of people being too lazy to walk, if given the option), but it's a thought.

People who hang around outside subway stations, places of gatherings (and in the middle of the day, not after parties/outside bars/etc.) who try to hand people cards with the address of their blog on it (and not printed flyers, but sheets of paper with the address handwritten on it).

People do this? How peculiar. Are they schizophrenics with web access or what?

remarking that he had never been in the company of such a disgusting savage before

IRL lols and eyes prickling with tears at this. A+++++++

I need this book. Fantastic quote.
