People who post photos online without a watermark, and then get all precious when they pop up elsewhere without them being credited
It's not exactly hard to look at the EXIF data in the image, or do a reverse image search, before you use it.Plastering a watermark all over a pic belongs in the last century.

I have Waze on every day travelling to work and back. Which would look, to the casual observer like a SatNav in operation.
After 10 years, I'm getting close to knowing the way by heart
, but its critical purpose is traffic management. I want to know to divert my route *before* I join the back of a lengthy queue. And, yes, that could easily be less than a mile from home.
I’m a recent ‘wazer’ And have a question, as it’s given me duff info a couple of times.After 10 years, I'm getting close to knowing the way by heart

And, yes, that could easily be less than a mile from home.If I, with waze on, drive through what has been marked as a traffic jam, without a problem, does waze notice what I’ve managed and turn off the traffic jam notifications for that spot?
A few times it has tried to divert me around places I know are very unlikely to have a jam, and there’s been no jam, so I’ve driven straight through.
Women wearing Ugg (or worse, cheap knock-offs) boots. It's mostly dry and cold and that means a preponderance of Uggs. They look absolutely s
t. Horrific. Ask anyone who's wearing them 'why', and a pound to a penny says they'll respond with a 'because they're comfy'.
Well yes, love, so is my dressing gown, and my wk slacks, but I don't fking wear them in public.

And this is a bad thing? Men's shoes are, on the whole, comfortable and easy to live with all day without feeling like your feet have been permanently crippled by the end of the day. The same can't be said for ladies shoes, sadly.
So "because they're comfy" is a big deal and comes much higher up the priority list than satisfying the sartorial requirements of a random male stranger.

Yes, I believe it does. It knows what speed you are going and where you are and that should tell it that there is no jam.

If the issue is on local/suburban roads, I will often get closer to the issue and then zoom in to see what current average speeds are in the area on the map - they seem to show anything less than 50% of the speed limit.

A self entitled little tart at work who barged in front of everyone else who were waiting patiently for the lift at work this morning irritated me more than it probably should. Clearly thought she was more important than everyone else. Probably late for her boss who was patiently waiting for his blow job.

About 98.73% of Ugg boots I've seen being worn have already been "ruined"...
...feckin' horrid things.

It's a bit "it ain't what you wear, it's the way that you wear it"
