Arsebook is crazy for political discussion. People say the dumbest things on there as if it is the undeniable truth. Even worse is when they go nuts over someone else going nuts, and think that they are completely calm and collected while the other person is ranting.

Dripping with preachy self-righteousness from either side of the divide, as well.

Good grief you have friends that bang on about politics? Thank **** none of mine do. :eek: The only two who occasionally come out with shite like that are unfollowed. Same with religion although any god botherers keep quiet except for the odd mention of having had a good day at church. I can cope with that.

Off and on, but it seems like you can't avoid shit like that these days wherever you go online.

Around the corner from the school drop off for Bobette #1, there's a 4 way junction.

It had always been a 2 way stop. Till this winter, when one of the signs got buried under the snow and the other one got knocked down by a plough.

Major PTA and a few accidents over the winter.

This week, they have put up new stop signs...but it's now a 4 way stop, but they haven't put lines on the road where there wasn't a pair of signs.

No one seemed to have noticed. Was fun this morning :/

Stumped up sentences by parents on the most part. I thought "look at", was annoying and it's right up there, but my word, "go do" is right up there.

Stop breaking the language people :/

Now that it's getting warm out, the firestations in the area have been putting out their annoying signs.

"The easiest way to put out a fire is to prevent one"...don't know why, but it annoys me...for a start, it wouldn't be a fire. Meh :/

Current rotation of lollipop lady, as she tries to direct traffic while getting kids to cross the road. Except she's crap at it and had a car come close to hitting someone as well as another close to hitting a car. She's also often late and generally, quite annoying.

Mr Chogs apparent physical inability to turn the effing dishwasher on even though he's just loaded it

I feel for him. Not half an hour ago I was chastised for exactly the same thing. :o

When you wash the dishes in the sink, shit like that doesn't happen.

Of course, she'll just find something else to criticize and nag you about so really, just what's the ****ing point?

Funnily enough I emptied and refilled the dishwasher to avoid being chastised for leaving dirty plates, glasses, and cutlery on the kitchen counter. I consider my efforts to be a partial success. :lol:

Did you take out the trash/mow the lawn/bring in the groceries/paint the ceiling/clean the bathroom/load the washing machine (front or top)/etc etc etc?

I hate it when someone leaves their car running outside your house in the middle of the night. That constant low hum.

When you go to empty the dishwasher and one of the containers has secretly collected a load of water - that you proceed to tip over yourself and the rest of the dishes.
