Duchess Dec 2015 10:46pm, 1 Dec 2015 6,410 posts	Quote Pin Duchess Can it also include the fucktard who couldn't find a space large enough for their Q5 on my street the other night, so decided to park it at right angles into a not-large-enough space and across the pavement. I was less than sober and kept walking round it (well the three sides I could get round) trying to work out why my eyes were playing up.

Fragile Do Not Bend Dec 2015 2:07pm, 2 Dec 2015 514 posts	Quote Pin Fragile Do Not Bend People who do the lazy parallel park by driving on & off the kerb. The kerbs outside my window at work are too high to drive up in a car so I get a small amount of amusement whenever I hear the scraping noise of bumper on kerb.

Velociraptor Dec 2015 2:38pm, 4 Dec 2015 33,064 posts	Quote Pin Velociraptor Marking 50 electronic prescriptions for signing and leaving the computer to plough through them while I go and make a cup of coffee. Coming back to discover that the notes of the first patient were locked by someone else and as a result I have to tick all 50 boxes again and wait for the computer to do its thing.
