well thanks heaps FD
i aimed to do some work this afternoon but now i will just spend my time thinking about selecting my best “everyone else is a selfish bastard” experience.
hmmm, now is it fair game to use my outlaws as an example? what about that idiot neighbour and them complaining about us burning the fireplace due to global warming? my golf scores? yeah i hate cyclists too, but you have already covered that? masterchef? celebrities? economists?
shit i could be up all night!

On behalf of ‘appalling should never be allowed to park in a city’ drivers everywhere: sounds like she’s never been taught how to reverse park. (Like me). Possibly, also like me, no one in her immediate circle dares to try. This sounds like a job for ‘Super Dog’. Spend saturday afternoon with her letting her into driving secrets like why they have all the mirrors in the car (except for doing your hair of course) and how you know where the curb is when you can’t see it even with all those mirrors and how do you get a metre and a half wide car out of 30 cm of space…..
Suspect it’s a Zen thing. Or maybe you need the Secret Driver’s passwoprd and All Is Revealed.
ps I don’t try to park in cities. But then I don’t have to live in one. Take pity on her, First Dog, and show her The Way.

OK FDOTM, you must be my neighbour or you must be me. I have the exact same thoughts about Bad Parking Post Graduate University Boy. Even down to the *same* fantasies. I haven’t resorted to nearly using post it notes, but am sorely tempted to adopt your idea. This cartoon is going on the fridge!

But it does sh-t me to tears when people don’t let me off the tram before trying to get on. I have adopted a policy of bundling through them like a rugby player making for the try line. They are most affronted. I fear I am becoming as bad as them.
