New thread, that one's shit.
So, we have a British winner of the Tour de France for the first time ever. Who else is pleased about this?

The government is once again saying they are going to clamp down on tax avoidance by naming and shaming. What other perfectly legal things do you think the government should stick their oar into and irrationally start instigating a program of national humiliation for the transgressors?

My vote is for people who are a bit loud in pubs when you're trying to enjoy some food. They're not doing anything wrong, but I would like them publicly named and shamed.

THey're not going to name and shame, I don't know why the papers are all saying that.

I think this idea isn't actually a bad one, but it's being reported (probably the treasuries fault tbh) very badly.
The problem is that it takes ages to shut it down through the courts. And I don't see the problem with HRMC warning people that if they continue to use a scheme as and when they get a court ruling then they could be in for a massive bill.

Last weekend I saw a woman trying to tell her young daughter not to do something fucking annoying.
Except she didn't tell her, she ASKED her. And the kid ignored her. So then she moaned like buggery at her husband about how the kid wouldn't do anything she was told.

I had to restrain myself from shouting 'perhaps if you told her rather than asking her. She's three years old, you stupid, vapid bitch. You're the fucking parent.'

But obviously I'm British, so I just rolled my eyes and walked off.

I ask my daughter rather than tell her.
Luckily she is a nice child and that almost always suffices. Practically every sentence she hears me say contains a please and/or thank you.

You can ask a child politely to do or not do something whilst still making it clear that it is really a command.

i think they should create fast track lanes on busy pedestrian routes
so that the dozy cunts who bimble along at 1mph and then just STOP for NO REASON can do so without getting in the way of normal people. if that doesn't stop them, then they can be named and shamed.

also, what is it with stairs? i am not that unfit, in that i run for an hour and do 30 mins on the cross-trainer 3-4 times a week, and i often walk the 6-7 miles home as well. but this morning i decided to walk up the 6 storeys to the staff restaurant, the thinking being that it might make me buy less diet coke if i have to sweat to get there. it was a billion times harder to walk up 12 flights of stairs than it is to run for an hour. wtf is that all about? name and shame the stairs. arse-aching cunts.

I never understand why everyone gets all upset when a cyclist gets squashed by a lorry
If they kept their distance and didn't try and sneak down the inside they'd be fine. They kill themselves cyclists

Lorries are well known for being highly manouevrable
They can just skip out of the way like a mountain goat, you know.

This is why I give points to cyclists.
15 points if they're wobbling all over the place, 10 points if they're being pricks, 2 points if they're over on one side and polite, 1 point if they're part of a big group!

I like it when ther'es a big group
and you can plough right through the middle. I got a strike, once!

With respect, you're talking utter shit.
I know very few cyclist who jump red lights as most of us don't want to get squished. On my commute to work the vast majority of cyclists follow the rules of the road. Labelling all cyclicts self righteous pricks is rubbish too - how is that? Have you interviewed every cyclist ever? There are certainly a percentage of cyclists who are pricks, there must be - but there are an awful lot of car drivers who are pricks too - pricks who seem to think they own the road, who seem to think that if they knock cyclists over it somehow won't hurt. The roads are a public space, and no-one should have to feel afraid of using it because drivers like you seem to asusme that all cyclists are somehow sub-human.

I never mentioned drivers
and of course it's not every cyclist, but to say cyclists don't jump reds is ridiculous and you know it, I see many every single day

I see many car drivers jumping red lights
Lets say all car drivers are self righteous pricks

I didn't say it doesn't happen.
In my experience of it, most cyclists obey traffic lights and are embarrassed by those that don't - it gives us all a bad name.

Fair point, you didn't mention drivers - but that does appear to be where most anger towards cyclists comes from, as if we're unfairly encroaching on 'their' domain.

I like to step out in front of cyclists barrelling towards pedestrian crossings when the right is red
just to make them screech to a halt, they inevitably get very angry

yup.
Number one pet hate at the moment - car drivers who won't wait and overtake cyclists on blind bends, thus meeting me head on coming the other way. Nearly every fucking day.
The proportion of selfish cunts is growing, especially on the roads.

mybe if you cycled quicker then you wouldn't be in the way

This is absolutely true.
I don't have a problem with anyone if they obey the rules of the road, but so many people don't. Cyclists and car drivers both.

I ride 110 miles a week
My commute has no red lights, I never pull out on car for fear of dying, I never cycle on the pavement, I have never clipped a wing mirror. I never weave all over the road. I do it because I don't drive and need to get to and from work, I don't believe I am saving the world.

I am a self righteous prick though but then so are you.

Nope
35 minutes on the bike, 40 minute drive. There's always long tail backs on one particular road.
