A black Honda Accord with a 2L would be one hell of a first car around here. But we'll have to see what's about end of May/start of June.
 
When you're trying to get rid of someone, and telling them that you're a 16 year old male who watches My Little Pony and enjoys it doesn't work!! :grumpy:

What grinds my gears right now is people who use hash tags on Facebook. They're meant for Twitter!
It's because people use TweetDeck which posts to both at the same time.
CARCRASH
I still have a massive lump on my head from last Friday when I hit my head on a pole in a WWI trench in Belgium
Now you know how I feel, I hit my head on pretty much everything. :grumpy:

Punishing myself on the AutoTrader website again.
I do that a lot too. I'm only 14, and yet I'm looking up my first car. Found an MX-5 for £950, looked pretty nice...
 
When people don't take you seriously. Was told bad, one-liner gay jokes on Facebook after publicly coming out - after saying I was serious about 3 times :(

As I said elsewhere, don't let it get to you. Just block them, think happy thoughts, talk to real friends who respect you, anything to forget about it and put it behind you. :)
 
Uninformed news reports like this.

But the scariest transaction came after dark in a pharmacy parking lot. The online ad was for a 50-caliber sniper rifle, the most powerful gun legally sold in the U.S.: bullet range 5 miles. It can pierce armored vehicles, even bring down a helicopter. But the seller was so laid-back, you’d think he was hocking a used bicycle.

Bring down a helicopter? When the hell has that ever happened?
Range of 5 miles? The longest sniper rifle kill ever recorded was about 2 miles.

What are these people on?
 
When you have half a Youtube video loaded, you're in a middle of a conversation with someone, and the internet closes itself because it wants to 🤬 update! :mad:

Could it be from the distance that the bullet could theoretically travel before landing on the ground?

Although yes, 5 miles range is a load of bull though. Lasers, yes, bullets?

Currently I have small gear grinders but nothing major, yet.
 
Those j.d. wentworth commercials... Also other commercials that have nothing to do with the product
 
Chart Music.

/rant

Okay, try number 2. Yes, I hate chart music too, and don't understand how people can like it more than real music which isn't about sex (or "banging") or partying. Probably the media just exaggerates the chart music so much that the people with a bad taste can definitely listen to it, and then show it to others with a bad taste too.
 
Having a spare half hour or so to have a quick look at the latest GT5 OCD selection and maybe an attempt at one of the most recent Seasonal Events - only to find that the PSN requires an update first. 20+ minutes later and i finally get to load GT5 - only to find GT5 needs updating too :rolleyes:

Recipe for a hit in the charts.

1 good looking male/female.
1 computer.
10 minutes with a sheet of paper, rhyming words like cup and up.

Recipe for a good song.

A talented Musician/musicians
A hell of a lot of inspiration.
Some Instruments.
weeks of work on one song.
Great Vocals

etc etc...

Bring down a helicopter? What are these people on?

A .50 cal round is more than capable of taking down a helicopter, especially unarmoured civillian aircraft.

A bulb blowing and tripping a circuit breaker in the fuseboard on a early morning toilet trip. I should just pee in the dark, that's what mops are for, right?

They didn't take you seriously, or they were just laughing at you?
 
Today the weather was clear, despite my Yahoo! weather widget telling me there was a slight chance of showers.

I'm searching for the weather in Chongqing. It's a big place, the size of England maybe. Why can I only find an average forecast? 15+ sites and half of them tell me showers, the others say dry with cloud cover. I need to know whether I can cycle tomorrow to work, I'm not cycling in rain with slick tyres.

How hard can it be. I live in the centre, the city! There are 15 million people here, please, please, just make it easy for us to find out what the weather will be like in a 20 mile square radius, that's about the extent of this city. :grumpy:

You're in China, it's a clear sunny day no matter what ;)

I have slick tyres on my racing bike and I was riding in the Ice and Snow!

Wuss! :D
