    When people go to turn right, but instead of pulling into the designated turning lane (whatever they're called) level with the road, they turn into it at an angle, leaving their rear end in the middle of the road.
    Which causes cars behind to brake or swerve to the left.

    The current vogue to start replies to questions with 'so'...
    I heard some posh historian do it a few weeks ago then everybody on the BBC has started doing it...
    I know it's now going to spread to management meetings at work now because they will have seen it on breakfast TV and can't help but immediately copy it......

    The phrase 
    "and then they turn round and said"
    or
    "you can't turn round and say".
    Why is everybody turning round before they say things? Can't they just stay where they were?

    Similar to that is when you overhear a conversation, often from someone a little bit common, that goes,
    'And then I said.....
    and then they said....
    and then I said'
    Don't know what it is but it goes through me.

    Unnecessary handshaking amongst friends.
    Fine if you haven't seen each other for a while, but if I've spent time with you often, I dont feel the need to press the flesh every time we meet.
    Don't get me started on kissing cheeks either, one peck or two, what's wrong with a nod of the head?

    I'm not a big fan of tattoos in general really. I think if you're a wrestler, biker, heavy metal guitarist, Maori warrior or navy seal then fair enough. But anyone else usually looks daft to me.
    I am particularly annoyed by tattoos you have to read though. Make it a picture or GTFO.

    Tattoos are at their greatest when they're badly drawn and/or spelled.

    You are a cynic. I think it's more likely a case of Hanlon's razor, but that's due to my extremely low opinion of the Bioware developers.
    I've changed my mind about Bioware though. I hope they continue making games forever. This is hilarious. It's like the Star Wars prequels all over again.

    I know. What have they done?
    And the male lead looks exactly like the model he's based on so there is somebody at Bioware who's capable of modelling a face.

    Perhaps I'm a cynic but it does make me wonder whether it's lazy/incompetent or is this ideologically driven? We wouldn't want young teenage lads being attracted to the female lead after all because 'rape culture'.
    Anita Sarkeesian's idea of the perfect female character -

    Bioware paid Jayde Rossi to use her likeness when designing their female lead. Can Rossi sue for defamation?

    That is amazing. Maybe botox treatment is mandatory in Andromeda? That's the only explanation I can offer as to why their faces don't move. The dialogue delivery would make Microsoft Sam proud.

    I've got the VR Worlds game and the demo disc with it. Will download what's free from the PS network (as there's a couple) and see. I've heard Resi is good too, but there's no way the missus will play that lol.
