There's an article in New Scientist this week about brewing milk from yeast. Fact. (Well, milk protein. They just need to make it behave a bit more like actual milk)

Some things are funny the first time. Some are just stupid and boring from the start.

The people who live on a nearby road with a very wide verge who think it's ok to park their excess cars on their dropped kerb pointing towards their house. It's fine for those with a Mini or a Corsa, but the ones with fucking great 4x4s and vans block the entire pavement forcing pedestrians etc round the back of the cars onto the road to get past.

Kids (very young 4-8 yrs) in restaurants!
I know it was hardly the Savoy, and it may have been a birthday, but there are plenty of places you can go to with children that cater for them.
At 2115 on a Friday night I do not want to listen to other peoples noisy, bickering, grizzly brats whilst I'm trying to eat.

I've not quite been saving these up, but I have another.
Some drivers!!!
Whilst driving down a very busy 2-way street, a parked car indicates to pull out ahead of me into my flow of traffic. Feeling hospitable, I slow down and flash him to pull out. He then blocks the road waiting for someone in the oncoming traffic to let him in as he wants to do a complete U-turn.
Fucking cock - there was a roundabout just some 80-100 metres on where he could quite easily have performed that manouvre, without delaying anybody else!

The lady this morning who slammed on her brakes, stopped on double yellows and in a cycle lane and whacked her hazards on so that she could take a phone call. It would almost have been safer to drive whist talking, heaven forbid she should miss a phone call the world would surely end.

Breast milk made me laugh, even if everyone knew there were no breastfeeding mums in the office, there'd be enough doubt to make them keep their hands off it  And orange and purple top milk, wtf?!

I have to admit to occasionally buying orange and purple top milk but only when our local co op has about 8 billion litres that they need to shift very quickly at a fraction of the normal price. Why you would bother at any other time I have no idea.

I think the orange/purple 1% fat milk is bought by people who want to be healthy but really don't like skimmed milk. I think. Or maybe some people just like to see a range of colours in the fridge..
Got stuck walking behind a bloke who was smoking like a chimney. Of course the breeze was such that all his smoke was billowing right into my face

The orange/purple milk is bought by people who think they want to be healthy but don't actually want to make a proper effort, i.e. doing more exercise and eating/drinking less crap (semi-skimmed milk isn't crap). It's much easier to buy things with "light" and "1% fat" in the name instead.
