Trivial things you don't understand/mildly annoy you

[Ells]

Explain 

honestly.

it starts with the 'aaah, what's the matter,  can't you manage to get your kids across a car park' response. then goes on from there at a rate of knots. basically the lazy bastards that park there inappropriately use every argument in the book to justify it.

Oh, I thought you meant don't mention the phobias thing! You're right though - spiders are evil, but I'd describe my phobia as about as close to debilitating as you can get.

The parking thing pisses me off, as someone who cares for several people in wheelchairs I don't understand the mentality of people who think their needs are more important because they're lazy. I remain convinced that cars have the power to turn a lot of people into absolute dicks.

I once had a bit of a set-to with what turned out to be a disabled chap, because the parent and toddler space was closer to the door than the 5 empty disabled spaces (by all of about 10 metres). I felt super awkward when I realised he was disabled, but that shouldn't mean he gets away with not using the spaces specifically designed for his use.

Let the tyres down / smear shit on the door handles / spray expanding foam up the exhaust.

spray expanding foam up the exhaust.

That's one way to avoid having kids

A new thing that's particularly bothering me currently due to recent parenthood is fuckers parking in parent & child spaces with no kids. In the past 3-4 weeks i've already had several altercations with people using these spaces when they shouldn't be.

Why shouldn't they? What age do you stop becoming a child/parent? There is no age set on the parent/child parking spaces so what's to moan about? When me and my mum go to the shops we always park in the parent/child space, so much closer to the shop.

[Samdy Gray]

Don't be such a cunt.

[Bob's Orange]

Don't be such a cunt.

Parent/child spaces should be 10 miles from the shop, nothing worse than fucking kids in shops.

[jayohaitchenn]

You're a fucking moron

[Ells]

Kids are fucking annoying anywhere, in any public place. Or any place inhabited by other, proper, fully grown people. The world's overpopulated, adopt a rabbit or summat.

[Bob's Orange]

You're a fucking moron

This is true. I'm only joking anyway, I get my shopping delivered.

[jayohaitchenn]

Banal and pointless comment. The world is 45 - 50% total wilderness and could sustain up to 10 billion people - and that's if we all don't stop eating meat or develop technology to increase food yield.

[Bob's Orange]

Haha.

I did think when I posted that putting the word fucking and kids next to each other was a recipe for disaster!

That picture actually made me soapy tit wank.

Fwiw my previous comments (and I suspect Elle's) were completely tongue in cheek. Now DMR is gone I wanted to step into his mindset temporarily.

It was a joke mate. I'm not actually a Puritan, or a hippie.

I may have a child one day soon, if the circumstances are right. I am finding kids annoying lately, but that's totally due to the parents.

Correct.
As an aside, I found out the other day that round here they don't say "cheers" when you do shots but "up your bum, no babies"

[sonicyouth]

Children are kind of annoying though, even parents must agree with that?
