One single thing that makes you think "knob" Vol 3
Discussion
The rolling coal scene'd VW Golf last night and it must have had an EGR bypass and straight through exhaust as it sounded like a cement mixer in a caravan and smoked so much I put my fog lights on to make a point. Oh, and it had a stupid waste gate that sounded like someone had slapped a Telly Tubby in the face. All together it was like the sounds Disney would dub over Donald Duck snoring through a set of knackered headphones.
Quwa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-ack! Whoooooooooo!
Quwa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-ack! Whoooooooooo!
Complete crap box. The rear of the car was so mucky you couldn't tell if the lights were on or not let alone try to read the number plate. Crawling along the fifty and sixty zones and speeding though the thirty zones. There was a short section of dual carriageway ahead of the thirty zone and I managed to make up the gap left behind by the VW speeding through the thirty. Indicated and moved over to the right lane. Just as I was close enough to do a PIT maneuver the VW swings two wheels over the centre line.
I dropped a gear and got past. Slowed for the sixty section and guess what? I had a VW Golf sat on my back bumper.
The next section was a forty zone so I made sure my brake lights were working a few times and absolutely sure my windscreen was clear. Probably the only time the VW gets a wash as the front was as bad as the back. No wonder it crawled through the sixty zones the headlights were covered in crap I doubt the owner could see where he/she/other was going.
The next national speed limit section I got up to sixty and kept it there through the bends. The VW was about half a mile behind me by the time I was in the next thirty zone.
A few minutes later I was nearly rammed in the back by the same VW Golf doing about fifty in the thirty zone to have caught me up in that distance.

No this isn't a dig at the Dub Scene just happens to be an individual with a poorly modified VW who happens to also have an IQ lower than his suspension.

When still facepalms just aren't enough to articulate the weirdness of complete strangers gang up together to bully another stranger on a forum

?? prob not as i have skinny legs and they would snap if big boys kicked balls near me
maybe i only live inside the internet wondering why people bully other people. all this does is make other people wary about posting their opinions for fear of bullies with nothing better to do from trolling all their posts and ripping them to bits as some sort of dull hobby
ah well... sunday. time to go see the oracle to break some vases

Amazing sight on the way to Ebbor Gorge today. Just outside Frome I give way to a Suzuki Liana hatch at a roundabout...
In the front:
Driver
Passenger with small child on her lap, window fully open, both of them hanging out of it waving
In the back:
3 Adults, at least one with child on lap I think
I then pull out behind them, in the boot:
2 Adults led on top of each other, swigging massive bottle of beer

Road captains out tonight, policing the merge points from 200 yards back. One got so far over to the right to block people merging that I went round him on the left. He was not pleased.
Another great MIT story. Always exiting.merging happens when the traffic is moving
if its stationary then how can you actually merge without forcing your way in??

yes, using the right turn lane to jump the queue = annoying
but also if the stationary traffic has merged 500m before the end of the lane....but us brits do love to queue
JJ is my name
JJ aka problemchild aka James
Thanks for that. I have used the Brits and queueing comparison before. Most Brits, I would argue, would move over to the left lane at first sight of the 'Lane Closed 800 yards' sign. Some don't though. If you have 800 yards warning there is, IMO, no excuse for charging up the right hand lane and expect to be let in when others are still queueing. These drivers who are patient and considerate, are often accused of being 'sheeples' or other derogatory names just for doing the right thing.but also if the stationary traffic has merged 500m before the end of the lane....but us brits do love to queue

For what other reason are the 'lane closed 800/600/400/200/100 yards signs for? They are saying move over to the left/right lane. Only when the sign 'Use both lanes when queueing' is shown should you make ground along the lane that is closing.
If they wanted you to merge 800 yards earlier they'd have closed the lane 800 yards earlier. How stupid can people be?The Spruce goose said:
