It’s a lot less annoying than some people insisting on being called mr, miss, mrs, ms, ze, xe, mx, misc, ind, mre, pr or any of the other self made up ones depending on the day of the week and who or what they are identifying as that particular day.

That does sound especially annoying.  Even moreso on account of it being changed daily.

Fortunately in my 51 years I have yet to have my shell-likes assaulted by it.  The people who complain about it (rene59 respectfully excepted if applicable ) seem to be inversely proportional to the instances of it actually happening.  It's become a (hugely successful) career move for many on social media.

Would be interesting to calculate how many youtube videos are from actual transgender/feminist activists insisting on these appellations - VS how many people make videos complaining loudly and insistently about how they are mercillesly exhorted to cater to these annoyingly inconsistent minorities!

Careful with that axe, Eugene.

"If you can't see my mirrors I can't see you and I'm too mean to spend £50 on a rear view camera that might save your life".

Oh, and there's only one chef in any section of a kitchen.  The rest are cooks.  Chef means boss, or chief.

There's a house near me that has a couple of 4x4s.. The proper kind mind, they have proper off road tyres and club stickers and some other mods.

Sticker on the back of one says (in upside down text) "if you can read this please turn me over" with a big arrow next to it saying "this side up"

Thought it was quite amusing.

I’m a wheel attendant myself and don’t really see the point to be honest.. although it is better than being called “driver”, I just write my name in permanent marker on my hi viz, this also stops the thieving swines at my work nicking it.

The one’s I do have a giggle at are (all genuine ones I have seen)

Cryptic crocodile

R.A.F regiment

Why me

Cab rat

Ice Dog

Never Hame

Flat oot

Mad Ron

Outtatime

Road dog

The stinker

Bon Bon

Wee General

That’s just the ones I remember.. I’m called Volvo.

“If you can’t see my mirrors I can’t see you and I’m too mean to spend £50 on a rear view camera that might save your life”.

When did it become the drivers responsibility to wipe the arse of the road users behind them?

It’d be like me selling you a bike in the classifieds and sticking a big yellow PerchyPanther sticker on it.

So where can I buy a PerchyPanther sticker for my car? I am a big fan myself as he regularly has the funniest comment on a topic.

Which would be fine as long as you didn't make a profit on it.

It's not really yellow. It used be green but I painted it.
