Things you see out and about and wonder why? Just why?

Anodised tow hooks/eyes on chavved up motors?

Sunglasses hooked over ears on the back of head??

3/4 length “shorts”

Any answers greatly received 🤣

People who wear big thick coats despite it being baking hot outside.

People who wear shorts and T-shirts because the sun is out but it’s still freezing outside.

Litter

Dog shit in plastic bags.

You made the effort to put it a bag – thats the disgusting bit, just carry it to the **** bin now.

Its actually worse that not picking up the shit in the first place

I bloody love my 3/4 length shorts! Cooler than troos but keeps the knees cosy. Win, win.

People who wear shorts and T-shirts because the sun is out but it’s still freezing outside.

This is me, temp near to double digits, shorts and tshirts are on.

Just why?

People are idiots

Litter

Actually, I think this might be one of my No.1 questions for the world..

If I accidentally drop a tissue or something from my pocket (getting keys out etc) I’m devastated.. I’ll chase it down teh street.
I literally think it would be impossible for me to chuck a plastic bottle or wrapper or something straight down on the floor.
Like… I just couldn’t do it..

I’ve seen people dumping whole McDonald’s meal wrappers out of their cars when parked in alayby, then driving off. You’re in an effing car…just bring it home with you~!!

Scum

DrP

Nope the disgusting bit is putting it in your pocket then discovering a short while later the bag wasn’t sealed very well.

Actually that brings to mind the one I really really don’t get.
People who drive to McDonald’s (other food outlets are available) get food (often from drive through but not always) then sit in the car park and eat it in their car where the smell of the stuff permeates everything for weeks, rather than go inside the restaurant they’re sat right outside of.

Scarf and t-shirt.

Just to be absolutely honest, I really don’t care, but was responding to the post above mine. 😀

Same here DrP. I just can’t comprehend the mindset. Can I add people talking on phones by holding it in front of their chin like they’re **** Cpt Kirk logging his thoughts on first landing on a new planet? Put it next to your ear you utter ****!

Oh and fly tipping

@JefWachowchow

Agreed, I’d wear them all year round if I could.

Seen any good ones recently? I can’t find a decent pair anywhere.

White dog-****.

People in enormous 4x4s who clearly can’t drive the ****ing things due to their complete lack of spatial awareness

Just get a smaller car that you can actually cope with FFS! WTF do you need an enormous tractor for anyway?

People.

Cunny funts

3/4 length “shorts”

Too feart to just wear a kilt and be done with it.

Fat bike at an XC race

I entered a race at Cannock once, after a rough gridding, (senior men at front, followed by vet men, senior women etc.) one competitor pipes up,

Where do the fat bikes and single-speeders go?

Organiser.

You lot get to the back you **** weirdos!

🤣 Made me laugh, (as one of the weird single-speeders)

Oh do one harrogate boi ;)!!!!!!

I do this cos I’ll take the kids to the drive through, then realise i can’t actually drive and dip nuggies and such, so we then park up and stink out the car!!!
plus… who doesn’t lurve stinky old McDonalds infused octavias, eh!!

DrP

Glad someone has already mentioned fat bikes.

3/4 length “shorts”

OK boomer.

Alien spaceships

One from that afternoon:

People with very expensive motors (Bentley, Porsche, etc) but holding their phone to make a call. I’m pretty sure those types of cars come with brilliant Bluetooth systems that do everything you could possibly want, why not use it and not put everyone in danger by driving one-handed!

Oh and voting Tory, especially those who advertise the fact.

People who work in public services, or their wives / husbands do, and vote conservative.

People that hold their phone like this…

Little Jimmy Osmond.

I will ALSo agree this nonsense “the apprentice back of cab” phone holding habit is annoying..

I’ll go on speaker if i’ve teh phone on the side and need my hands…
Or i’ll hold it to my ear, thus rendering a hand useless.

What does speaker IN HAND acheive..?

DrP

Telling bone appointment with the ENT consultant?

People who wear big thick coats despite it being baking hot outside.

This was me earlier today. Full of cold but outside in the glorious sun wearing a t-shirt, thin fleece and thick winter fleece.

Also made me think of this https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/98975cec-b2f1-4cdb-b541-e499b64309a5/embed?autoplay=false

@easily, not bought any for years. I am still rotating my 3 pairs of Endura Zyme’s from way back.

Oh and voting Tory, especially those who advertise the fact.

You see this whilst out and about?

Fashion. See also anodised bits on chavved up bikes.

Chavs don’t be rocking Hope components on their Carrera Subway.

Definitely the McDonald’s litter thing. Boils my water no end.

If they don’t have spatial awareness it won’t matter what they drive.

Dry Robes…. when clearly just popping to the shop when it’s dry, even worse when paired with Crocs (and socks)

Oh and fly tipping

Nah, this one I understand perfectly, as the alternative costs money. If you’re selfish <insert your own 4 letter word> then there’s money to be made disposing of waste illegally.

The dog poo left in bags one I just don’t get, likewise parking with two or even all four wheels on the pavement when there’s plenty of space on the road. I just don’t understand what goes through the mind when doing it*.

* OK, I do. Absolutely nothing.

Every time I see that I think I must get round to buying a nail gun…..

Dog pooh bags on bushes = people should be flogged for this.

Expensive cars but not using the Bluetooth hands free = because they are too dumb to pair the phone

Holding your phone at an angle and being on speaker = not a Scooby, my kids used to do it but now have grown out of it

If you’ve spent the best part of a grand on a Canada Goose jacket you need to get the wear out of it.

The speaker phone thing does my head in, especially if the user also has a set of earbuds in!

VW transporters with bikes on a rack on the back (see: FOD carpark). Why lug that huge compromised lump around all week chucking out all that pollution, and come the weekend it’s not even big enough to fit your bike in!
