Twice I was repeatedly flashed by old women in Hondas after passing them in the second lane of the M25 and returning to the left-hand lane (a good two car lengths ahead of them, mind). k off.I have absolutely no idea why but it's not the first time I've experienced it.

Not everyone in the UK has a planner full of Channel4 documentaries.

The Yummy Mummy in her Kia Sportage in Lease White who drove through the middle of Dunnington village in excess of 40mph. With cars on both sides and children walking to and from the shops. Must have been well worth it, because I still caught up to you at the traffic lights to join the A1079.
Still at least your children are safe.

Can't help myself, when I see one I just think - knob

The van driver this morning on Goodge Street who tailgated a slow moving articulated lorry through a yellow box junction as the lights turned to red.
He subsequently stopped in the yellow box after pulling up so closely to the back of the HGV, he'd be invisible to the driver.
All done while on the phone.
How many points would that get him?

A "modern and vibrant look" - which obscure thesaurus did they have to look in to find those as alternatives to "vulgar and gaudy"?
The drivers of the blue skoda and builders van who decided that in this morning's rush hour the M27 followed by the 4 lane stretch of the A27 would be a great place to have full on red mist road rage. I watched from behind for a good 5+ minutes as they both cut across all lanes possible to get in front and brake check each other, no doubt all the while screaming and gesticulating.
Plenty of other cars got caught up in it, backing off or switching lanes to avoid.
My memory is crap these days for stuff like reg numbers or the builders name (plastered all over the van, good advertising....), must sort out that dashcam!

People with satnavs and loads of crap directly in their field of vision on the windscreen, saw one guy who I assume was a minicab driver with five suction mounted devices (2 phones, a satnav, dashcam and something I couldn't work out) all just above the steering wheel blocking a lot of the screen.
Recently at work they replaced the microwave with industrial 2000w types, I don't have any issue with using them as I use them at half power but most other people don't.
Often I hear cursing as they don't reduce the time they put the food in them for so they are left with superheated food.

today i went to use one of the microwaves which my work provide for "packed lunch nerds" like me. I couldn't get it to work, and it just said "LOCKED" on the screen. I tried pressing several buttons but no dice. The guy behind me stepped up and said "oh you fix it like this" and pressed a couple of buttons, et voila. He then proceeded to put his lunch in and turn it on, the fking . And it was one of those stupid big pots of soup that take about 10 minutes to cook. What a fking liberty.
Tbh if he didn't show you how then he you would still be waiting so it's justified imo.king . And it was one of those stupid big pots of soup that take about 10 minutes to cook. What a fking liberty.

another type of knob is those people, and they seem pretty numerous, who f
king piss about in their microwave heating of food like it's masterchef. There's sometimes a queue of 10 people and the tts at the front are constantly pulling their tupperwares out, stirring, tasting, pondering, stirring, tasting, put back in for 30 seconds and repeat, over and over. The spend 20 minutes heating it when 3 mins straight would do fine, and then they can't eat it for another 10 minutes because it's hotter than the sun. It's a microwave. You are ruining your food whatever you do so just get on with it and fk off!!Blown2CV said:

BMW driver this morning who was (unsurprisingly) sat in L2 of the DC doing about 40 whilst being undertaken by multiple cars in L1.
Further knobishness occurred when a busy slip road came up, multiple cars entering from the slip road forced to come to a complete stop as nobody was able to move over to let them in due to MR BMW knob being sat like a prize plank in L2.

that reminds me - when i'm waiting in the queue for the drinks machine and the guy or girl in front has one of those stupid plastic things with the multiple cup holes and is busy getting 8 little cups of tea that take 30 seconds each to take over to the group of people on their desk 20 feet away. Perish the thought that i might suggest breaking the 'round' that you've been in since 1998 but it would be a bit fairer to everyone else. People getting 8 coffees in coffee shops pretty similar issue but at least it doesn't block the queue!!

THIS.This knobisness really winds me up, especially if I go to get a coffee during my (already short) break and end up spending 98% of it waiting for some knob to fill up 8 odd cups.

eCame back after a good 5 minutes munching some sort of goat entrail sandwich & seemed so surprised someone was waiting for the pump.
