..."carbon emissions" ONE more time, I think I'm going to scream.

It's CARBON DIOXIDE FFS!! banghead

Mind you, even if I hear any more bks about carbon dioxide I think I'll probably do someone a serious injury.

CO2? bks. Climate change is completely inevitable. In fact, I'd be rather concerned if it NEVER changed. It's been warming up and cooling down for billions of years. Live with it.

You're probably wondering what's boiled my urine tonight - it's the announcement by the Limp Demoprats that "..airline tickets should show a passenger's carbon emissions for their flight.."

I don't give a fk. By the time I'm looking at the ticket, it's irrelevant either way you twonks.

fk it, I'm going outside to rev the nuts off my car just because.

Indeed. Although I've heard some people do read aloud (admittedly only the stupid).

Which would present him with a very awkward situation.

I struggle to read the posts out loud at the same time as licking the screen. It's not easy you know.

An encompassing phrase so it includes carbon monoxide as well?

Ah, that other naturally-occurring gas. Also an infinitesimally small percentage of the overall atmosphere. There'll be a tax on that soon too no doubt.

It's another sentence filler employed by those of limited vocabulary along with other words and phrases like 'basically', 'absolutely', 'actually', 'physically', 'simple as', 'end of' and 'weapons grade'.

actually you forgot the word "innit" so you must have a limited vocabulary, which basically makes you a weapons grade cock, simple as

I've just typed this on a hemp keyboard, so this is a carbon neutral statement.

I left 'that' out on purpose.

There are some things a gentleman just doesn't write.

Sheffield had a festival of transport today (not sure festival was such a good word..the highlight was a lovely lovely tuscan..thats about it) and there was a big banner that said ¨do you use diesel?¨ next to some eco ste.

Not sure my answer of ¨fk no, I use proper stuff¨ went down too well.

Anyone else notice that on multimap it tells you your ¨carbon output¨ for your required journey? It doesn't if you put in walking though..A conspiracy.
