Idiocracy is council.

Our local groups are often over run by a certain loud mouth who knows everything about nothing, all the kids, dags, chameleon hair etc

Out of curiosity I clicked the profile

That’s a whole rabbit hole I can’t venture into

School rules. They’ve been massive on hydration from nursery onwards.

All kids are required to have a reusable water bottle all the time.

That seems over the top. What's wrong with using a drinking water fountain like we all did?

Because if you originate from humble council beginnings, there's a better than 50 percent chance that someone would have pooped in it. The Stanley cup is an evolutionary response to this situation.

Conflating 2 issues … council

I don't recall anyone carrying water around with them about 20 years ago or before. Why is it suddenly such an important issue ? The human body is by and large self-healing - if it needs water it makes you feel thirsty. I don't feel thirsty and so I don't drink. I also don't sweat - just like loveable Andrew.

All the years I was at school, nobody carried bottles of water around, and eating or drinking during lessons was banned anyway. Drinks were available at the tuck shop or water fountain during break and lunch. I don't recall ever feeling particularly thirsty. Come to think of it, once a week we spent all afternoon doing sport, and I don't even remember having a drink after that before going home. Strange how attitudes have changed.

Let's hope so...more and more of those types of things appearing in the woods on MTB trails.

I've ridden one (yes i know) and I feel you'd have more fun downhill on just about any decent MTB. Just laziness and a lack of respect for the trail builders IMO.

Indeed. I don't even think there was a 'water fountain' at my school. There was a vending machine where you could buy a plastic cup of generic fizzy pop or instant coffee! (definitely would not be allowed these days).

You could get tap water at lunchtime in the canteen - served from one of those bright coloured aluminium jugs.

Yeah, one little throttle twist and it digs a foot deep tyre width rut into the take off I've spent hours building

Drinking water, AKA Council pop.

Each scene is overflowing with council. I thought it was a piss take at first, but tragically it isn’t!

Just noticed the coffin is supported on a pair of saw horses in the living room.

I'm addicted to watching it!

We might scoff at it (just noticed the lions on the gatepost pillars) but one thing is for sure, the woman was clearly well loved and given an impressive send off, from the perspective of her family.

I'm intrigued as to where one gets at least ten matching white Rolls Royce Phantoms on hire!

Can't imagine jump trails being much fun on one! If I caught someone using one on my trails I'd probably be quite pissed off. I spent hours perfectly moulding that rutty berm, all for some motocross helmet wearing weapon to blow the whole thing out!

We took my 5 year old for a walk to look at the skate ramps

In the way there we got passed by a bunch of 21ish year olds on these, doing I estimate around 30mph on a gravel path, I didn’t hear them coming but thankfully my wife did just in the nick of time, would have had a squashed kid.

Always think I’m going to get mugged when I see a surron

Never met a pleasant person in one

If you click the profile that uploaded the funeral montage, you get to see Kayden getting his moped for his 16th



There’s then a picture (presumably on the same day) of it being ridden out in public!

Edit to add, Kayden also has a surron!

Most owners don't have a clue how to ride, just seem to monster truck over everything and just make inlt unridable for anyone else...we are lucky, Old Bill will turn up quite quickly if contacted.
