    Remember my (very inebriated) mate having a pee and then looking down and saying "Oh no! I've pee'd all over my shoes" - to which the (thankfully equally wrecked) bloke next to him looked down and said "yep - and you pee'd all over mine as well" - a swift exit ensued....

    Clearly there is special place reserved in hell for drivers who don't raise their hand to say thanks when you let them in in traffic...even more 'special' if they are coming the opposite way and the parked car is on their side and they speed-up to get through and just blank you.

    Unfortunately from the dogs perspective, if it's got shelter and food and water then it can be left legally for really as much time as the owner wants. The dog is obviously showing signs of separation anxiety and it's suffering distress but nothing that can be measured from a legal perspective.
    They're idiots (the owners not dogs). I'd report them for noise issues but only as a warning at first IF they are council tenants. Then recommend they get someone to come and walk the dog at least once in the day and get some advice on why dogs do this and how to combat it. If they aren't interested in any of this then i'd be at the council 24/7 and i'd make something get done. If it's a private house then sadly I believe you're screwed all ends up and just have to put up with it unless you can sort it amicably between yourselves.
    Hope you can get it sorted Wolfie.

    McDonalds drive throughs. Who decided it would be a good idea to put the menu board AFTER the talk box?
    "Hi sir, welcome to McDonalds - can I take your order?"
    "Err, hello. Can you just give me 2 minutes whilst I now look at the menu that has only just come into view as there wasn't one before anywhere whilst I was queuing"
    Brains in their arse.

    Most reputable animal centres won't rehome a dog to someone who works full time unless they have guarantees that someone will be able to take the dog out once or twice during the day. They will also speak to third parties responsible for taking the dog out to ensure they are in agreement with this and they are happy to do so. They won't rehome a pup to anyone who works full time regardless nor a dog that has a record of being left and being problematic.
    I won't get a dog because I haven't the time for it. It's important to remember though that we live in a society where people have kids willy nilly when they haven't got the time for them so in that respect, dogs have no chance.
    Sensible, responsible dog owners who work full time will ensure their dog is cared for appropriately just like sensible, responsible parents will do so for their kids. Anyone else doing otherwise need to ask themselves why they wanted a dog / kids in the first place.

    I didn't know that about the McDonalds case. Jeez. World's gone mad. At my kids school there is one the biggest horse chestnut trees you'll ever see in the playground but they aren't allowed to play conkers or collect them, even fallen ones.
    Truly sad.

    People who tweet football players. Tonight to Will Huhes - 'hope you guys are ready to kick start the season'. Then there's those happy birthday tweets. Get over yourselves! The grovel fest to Shaun Barker, just stop that now. 
    People who make a huge production out of a sneeze. Guy just sneezed and somebody down the other end of the complex shouted 'bless you'. God knows how many decibels he produced but olives were dropping of the bloody trees outside. 
    People who can't wait to tell everyone they've 'been on a cruise'. How magnificent you went to a floating Butlins, good for you.

    I too have numerous tattoos. They are either Austrian themed or band logos.
    I now dislike most of them and want them gone but I have to live with them now. I'm nearly 40.
    All my tattoos mean something personal to me though which I am proud of in a way. I haven't just plumped for the seemingly obligatory celtic arm / sleeve generic design thingy that nearly every bloke seems to have nowadays. Not judging anyone who has one of these, it's not my body so do what you like to yours. I agree with the two other posters on here who commented about other issues which cause people to get tattoos done. I think there is a sense of getting them to compensate for insecurities for some or just getting them to pose which again, insecurities but in another sense. Others simply like the designs and artwork and love them so fair enough. I don't really like tattoos. Never have done really if i'm honest.
    I thought they would make me look cool at the time but now 15 years on I look like a tw*t.
    That said though, I think of all the club badges, the Derby ram stood alone in bold black is a simple but bloody good design to get tattooed.

    This falls under litigation culture in general. You can blame that numpty that got millions out of McDonalds because they didn't warn her that the coffee she'd bought was quite hot.

    that drives me crazy, why they don't work on one section at a time is beyond me, even more annoying is the 50mph speed limit they operate in these vast swathes of emptiness , how are we protecting the workers when they are 40 miles down the road.

    Regular sized bags of crisps with an easy peel panel on the front to "make them easier to share".
    1. Share my crisps?
    2. Have we, as a society, really reached the stage where making a nick in the corner of the bag and opening it fully is too much effort or too complicated for people to figure out?

    The 'convenient' flaps on a sealed pack of, for example, ham that's supposed to make it easier to open that simply snap off.  Do any of them work, ever???

    Drivers trying to get out of car parks at the end of matches. But not any driver, those in particular who feel the need to edge and edge and edge their way as close to my car as is possible. If you wait patiently for me to let you out then i'll let you out no problems. If you think you are intimidating me and encouraging me to let you out by bullying your way in front of me then i'll happily drive past, even causing some superficial damage to my vehicle if you are too close, and i'll make you wait for the next available opportunity. We're all in a rush, we're all attempting to make our way home so what makes your circumstances any more special?
