    Never slipped on leaves in over forty years.

    I fancy you’ve never ridden QECP on a damp autumn day! Get Houns up there, I say. (not now, obviously, wait until September. Ta)

    People that cannot spell understand or still.

    So you can’t comprehend such a thing as a typo?  Or I could have been  dislexic (I’m not, it was a typo).

    Thanks for reinforcing my point by proving you don’t understand what incomprehensible means though.

    Actually, on the subject of spelling and the like…

    Something I don’t get at all is people typing in a dialect (for want of a better term).  I get people shorting words in text speak (seems daft outside of texting, but hey).  So using m8 instead of mate.  But making up spellings so they look like the way YOU pronounce the word just doesn’t make sense to me.
    Typing “polis” instead of “police”.  Or “reyt” instead of “right” (or if you must, why not use “rate” or “reet” depending on what it is you’re trying to say – to ne honest I’m not 100% sure on  that one).

    So, yeah, making up spellings for no good reason – I find that genuinely incomprehensible.

    Some people write online in a kinda phonetic text so what they’ve written is less likely to appear in automated search results.

    2 hours solid today to clear leaves, pine needles, half devoured pine cones, cut grass, hedge clippings, uprooted Himalayan balsam, sawdust, wood chippings, and other brush cut debris. Happily sit and watch you use a broom but I would leave you once it gets dark

    Yeah, I’m not a gardener so I’d just be leaving all that shit where it was. Don’t understand the need to move it

    Typing “polis” instead of “police”

    I can help with that one, quoting from here:

    The Polis is a govrenment organization that is gien speicial leecence tae enforce thair govrenment’s laws agin different kynds o wrang-daein. Polis men speirs oot thiftdom or murthers an wairds heich-gates an ceeties for tae mak siccar that fowk daesna gang agin the law. The biggin thay wirk in is for ordinar cried a polis station.

    The police in Sweden are called Polis. Could those people be talking about crimes in Malmö?

    Tailgating lorries like the chap on the A508 this afternoon. So close he had to keep braking despite the lorry not doing so. No visibility, no chance of overtaking, absolutely moronic.

    The human mind, just watched the latest Hellboy movie and now thinking back my mind has retconned Ron Perlman into it. I know it’s not quite what the thread is about but interesting anyway.

    40000+ gun related deaths in the USA last year yet the nothing gets gets done due to NRA lobbyists………and I see there has been another mass shooting earlier today…..utterly incomprehensible

    People writing “none c when they obviously mean” non”…. Happens far too often for it to be a typo, especially when the “e” is an added extra.

    Did they not learn about “magic E” in primary school?

    Motorbikes.

    Know a guy, in his late 50s, always been single, only rides a motorbike, all year round, whatever the weather.

    I get that, totally, makes sense for him, no one to drive around.

    But mid life crisis types that wheel them out on sunny days? Lacking skills, busy roads….

    another one today – 9 dead in Dayton. The only way to solve it is to arm everyone apparently. God Bless America.

    People walking along on their own using their phone on speaker mode. The apprentice candidates looked like dicks when they did it, and that ain’t changed.

    And folk who edge toward red traffic lights as if its going to make them change any quicker. Doubly so when they crawl away really slowly when the lights actually do change.

    I’ll wager they’re the same people who come flying out of side roads with nary a care for traffic already on the main road, then dribble along at 20mph.

    I can understand travelling to compete with others

    I can see the attraction of all the above if you get paid or get prize money.

    No, I did play for the school on one occasion (but probably only cos the PE teacher thought I was awesome at kicking a ball round the yard) trouble was, come ‘match day’ our opponents were a team from Durham & there was a lad playing who I knew from the ice rink so all we did was stand around yapping about ice hockey & I never got picked again.
    I don’t think football as incomprehensible though.
    It’s just a shite game played mainly by tarts.

    No argument from me!

    But they’re not really the same are they. Watching football is equivalent to watching the fingers on the esportspersons hands nailing the trianglesquareLR combo or whatever finger athletisism is required.

    I’m not saying its wrong you understand i just can’t comprehend the concept.

    Played football, boxed and played rugby for local and university teams and I’m pretty sure I’m not a tart.

    People.
    Selfish pricks.
    ‘I’m all right jack’ selfish pricks.
    Selfish pricks that think just because you like something that they don’t, you’re somehow odd.
    Ordinary people who see their world changing around them, and STILL vote Tory.
    People who are too lazy to find out why.
