British Expats - Pet Peeves?

Escorts were cool back then, they ruined that one by squaring it off, like Leyland did to the Marina to create the Ital (which was bad before the warm-over). Aside from the late 70's Mexico (with wind-dam front), and the mid 80's Cosworth, the Escort was never cool again. :(

My mate worked as a barman in a local hotel growing up - he described one night when he walked in to discover someone had left the bathroom looking like that ...

When you have your window open to enjoy the nice breeze coming in and some inconsiderate arsehole decides to smoke a fag right under it.

Bucket, water, head come to mind. Just been cleaning the floor though, and had to get rid of the water somehow. ;)

Too much like hard work. I have a screen on the window and a deck overhang in the way.

I believe the technical term is "Sharting". :D

I think that (if it were actually shit in that picture) had long since crossed the line where a simple shart becomes actually just badly shitting yourself.

I mean, there's following though and then there's explosive squits ...
