What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[kinkersaab]

I hate self righteous cyclists, but that is lol. 

[vulgalour]

The slo-mo!  Ace.
 
I can't remember how to do the Youtube embed thing, but at one point the driver's tirade put me in mind of The Van Driver's Lament.

 

 

 

EDIT: Oh, it did it for me.  How handy.

[purplebargeken]

Cor, that cyclist is quick isn't he! 

 

The driver was quite the dick and that fall did make me giggle. A lot.

 

Personally I'd have thought tosser, that was a bit close and just ignored. I can't cycle that quickly anyway.

I think it's an electric bike, you can hear it whirring when he gives chase.

[Negative Creep]

And how he nearly hits a  pedestrian at the 30 second mark trying to catch up

[richardthestag]

Fucking LOL, stay with this until the end....

My son asked for his sandwich cutting into randomish shapes. Think I did a good job while trying to avoid them being all crust

 

[Mr_Bo11ox]

That cyclist thing caused me to LOL my bollocks off. PUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT!!!!! The cyclist does seem like the sort likely to get himself punched sooner or later though.

[Negative Creep]

 

Although a look at the cyclist's youtube channel shows he is a complete tosser as well

[Craig the Princess]

While the 405 driver was a pratt (perhaps 20p was stuck in his handbrake) the cyclist was even closer to bowling over the pedestrian. Urban warrior wanker.

 

Verdict = double douchbag conflict

[Cavcraft]

That cyclist didn't do himself any favours. Fair enough if he was aggrieved, but giving that bloke a snooty sounding lecture wasn't going to help. I prefer just to call people a wanker or something, it's a bit more direct and gets the point over. 

[alf892]

Cyclist was baiting that bloke to fuck.........I like to cycle but some of them do ask for trouble.......maybe 'cycling with a supercilious attitude' should be an offence?

[nacho man]

Very slightly knackered transit work van replaced with a v8 dizzler Range Rover sport as my company hack.

 

 

Focus/mondeo seat up/down switch noted. 1996 lcd radio screen noted. Thinks it's -8 outside noted. Worn seat bolster and interior trim at 58k noted. Rear suspension had a full rebuild already in its life. Last service was 1900 quid. Are these basically just a p38 but WORSE.

 

But never mind I have a fuel card and like pretending I am a drug dealer.

[NorfolkNWeigh]

This has cheered me up after a shit week. Not so much the Pug as to how happy it's made my daughter.

Reminds me of when I was 20 and how excitied I'd get about a new car, 30 odd years later I'm a miserable bastard that wouldn't smile that much if I was given a 2 door Range Rover with Beyonce in the passenger seat and million pounds in the boot.

[fordperv]

I popped to put some fuel in after work and on the way I saw a smoke screen lingering along the dual carriageway, this was the culprit

 

[vulgalour]

New relationship stuff is going nicely, just had a really cheer inducing telephone conversation and feel all warm and fuzzy and stuff.

Tonight I appear to be staying in 1986.

[Lord Sterling]

Yeah, the flat screen TV is very 1986

must be a posh rovah if it can make telephone calls!

[Inspector Morose]

Tonight I appear to be staying in 1986.

Yes, but are there tea and coffee making facilities?

 

If so, WIN! (I'm a posh bastard, my abodes are premier inns with free wifi!)

Don't get bored and take that trouser press apart

This is the most profound thing I have read for ages.

[fred]

Fuck me sideways ! mega smoke stack monster !

[wuvvum]

Fuck me that Passat is quick!  There's loads of videos of it taking on some pretty serious kit.

[richardthestag]

reckon that bimmer would have had maybe half a chance had he not spent half the run on the rev limiter.

 

Awsome passat though

[EssDeeWon]

Remove the TV and replace with a little B&W portable, and place Breadvans SD1 keys on the side and that really would be 1986 !!!

 

You could pretend to be a high flying sales rep, with a double breasted suit and some tinted driving glasses.

[hairnet]
