Do you drive a helicopter, I think fly would be the correct word.

OT, the thing I hate, are the phrases are that regurgitated into every thread. The one being the Dunning–Kruger effect, used for middle lane hoggers, when it has clearly no relevance. It pops up on threads daily and if they could be bothered to understand it would find out it actually has little relevance.

I would suggest that the number of the same lefties who are always posting on NP&E, queuing up here to say it is inhabited overwhelmingly by the right is evidence they are wrong. Look folks - the real world contains people with other views and they dont necessarily echo those of your mates on Facebook, Twitter and CiF. It must be hard coming to terms with people posting opposing views and I am sure you secretly desire some Stalinist censorship of counter-revolutionary views.
Have you ever read the NPandE?

Any election poll on pistonheads shows a massive majority to right wing parties. There's no doubt whatsoever that the NPandE is hugely right wing. Even conservative voters get called jealous lefties.

I occasionally refer to the Dunning-Kruger effect. It's a brilliant piece of explanatory research IMO; but for "middle lane hoggers" ?
How do people manage to make that connection?

Imagine the EDL but without quite so many communists and intellectuals and a few more people on benefits. biggrin

"applying the principle of Occam's Razor" is another one that winds me up.

People who quote a very photo heavy post just to add something like "Nice car".

There are indeed a few very unpleasantly misogynistic posters on PH. Utter misfits who seemingly presume that because they find it impossible to relate to 51% of the world's population that it must be the fault of the women.

This is completely untrue. It's more than a few.

One only has to endure the threads related to certain TV motoring show to see every week the "ooh blonde behind Hammond" crossness.

It's the divorce and other relationship-related threads that really seem to bring out the misogynists with their "SwT" obession.

A lot of the posts on this thread are indicative of some of the less attractive traits on PH: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I forget who said it first - I've been called a misogynist. How can anyone who's been married five times not like women?
