This is a question Inflated Self-Importance

Amorous Badger asks: Tell us tales of people who have a high opinion of themselves. Jumped-up officials, the mad old bloke who runs the Neighbourhood Watch like it's a military operation, Colonel Blimps, pompous bastards and people stuck up their own arse.

Microsoft Research
Need I say more? Well, yes as I have mentioned before I work in Cambridge. Microsoft Research have recently relocated to near the train station, where there is a lot of other property re-development going on. Because they are massive bastards they closed one side of Station Road, a very busy road, at a time so they could get their cunting cabling and twating gas put in, it went on for weeks. More over they blocked the pavement on Tenision Road, pedestrians had to walk on the road then finally they put up some crap plastic barriers on the road as a make-shift walk way.

They made me utter a phrase I thought I would never say. "I just want to go to work."

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd like to hear more of this fascinating study of traffic patterns in Cambridge.

I am no expert
But I am sure if you were to approach Microsoft they would be able to come up with some kind of algorithm which would calculate and replicate a sense of humour for you.

He used to post here before it became a refuge for emotional cripples.
No offence like.

None taken
It taken me a lifetime's work to accumulate this level of painful social awkwardness, awareness of all my physical and emotional inadequacies. And that is why I love the traffic of Cambridge!

He's got some sort of point.
Describing a minor traffic disturbance during some building works in a provincial town does illustrate inflated self-importance.

Although not in the way it was probably intended.

so, you're angry that roadworks have inconvenienced you mildly?

(, Sat 26 Jan 2013, 13:29, closed)
They're barely even an inconvenience.
There's one road that becomes fractionally more difficult to get to because of the one-way system. It's about as annoying as ... I don't know ... them only having two flavours of peanut behind the bar.

I hope the cunt gets evicted from the town for being a feeble pissypants.

Jesus wept, not Tenison Road?
That's it, I've taken all I can of their shit, I'm moving to a different OS and I'm not coming back.

It's tough at the top, isn't it?
By the way, it's "station" not "train station". In the same way as it's "airport" not "aeroplane airport".

It is the train station as apposed to the bus station.
or the coach station or an underground or tube station or tram station or any other kind of station you care to mention.

By your logic an airport should be simply 'port' rather than airport. Airport is a contraction of air and port which makes means of that you will travel by it easily identifiable, much like seaport.
