Because I don't know what to buy until I see it! How will I know what is on special offer? What has been discounted? What has longer than one day's sell by date on it?!?!
I do not use it to fill up a gap in my day!

Big Mac and Fries to go, in room 101.
2) Yeah but we should be tolerant of those who don't follow the Great God Gnu. Come the apocalypse we'll have the pleasure of knocking on their doors and saying we told you so.
3) They serve a purpose, someone has to sell houses don't they? I'm sure they could do with some improvements but you argument gives me no reason to let them through the door.

1. Ticket touts - why? They buy up all the tickets straight away for a gig I want to go to, no matter how long before the tickets go on sale I get prepared on the computer, they have some super duper software that nips in and pinches my ticket
2. Noisy eaters - why? I do not need to see the contents of someone's mouth whilst they are eating, I do not need to hear them chomping and slopping their food about. Eating with your mouth open gives you wind
3. Grey hair - I don't like it, I don't need it, it makes me feel old and costs me a lot of money in hair dye!

This is the life I choose for my son, its not doing him any harm, so stop comparing me to you and realise that we all have different needs for our kids. Its not a competion. (wow that feels better )
2. 4wd in town, many of them with bull bars. Hey at least you will be OK if you hit a child!! The majority of my friends or family that have bought 4wds have become terrible drivers. Unobservant, impatient and take far too many risks. What is the need for a 4wd that is never taken off road or even onto bumpy roads.
3. The traffic lights on the Princes Highway. I swear they all have it in for me!!

2) Well where do we stop? If we took 4WDs off the roads perhaps then we should look at sports cars? Who needs to do 0-60 in 5 seconds or reach 200k+? I agree it is annoying to see these cars that have never seen a dusty road let alone gone proper offroading. But it's a question of demand. People want them so just because you or I don't like it we can't stop the manufacturers or the purchasers. Wouldn't it be better to try and educate people instead?
3) I'll take your word on that. But it's too specific for me to pass judgement on. If they have it in for you, perhaps that means someone else gets away with a street of green lights? Ho hum.

Re: Room 101
Lazy/Ignorant gits who park in disabled/parent and child spaces when they're neither
People who abuse power. You've all met them, give them a job promo or a fancy title and they think they're god
People with lit cigarettes who think it's OK to almost take little kids eyes out with them when they pass!! FFS, lift it up if you can't wait until you get home, my kids don't want to inhale your smoke, or lose the sight in one eye!!
Can I also add smokers who crowd all shop entrances these days since the smoking ban came into effect. You can't get in and out of shops etc, now without feeling like you've smoked a couple yourself!! (can you tell I'm an ex smoker
)
Bullies - all sorts - school, workplace, online.
sorry, I'm on a bit of a Monday morning roll.
