I know it could render the situation somewhat socially awkward, but would you not be tempted to rip out their throat with a single snap of your powerful jaws?

Well Mr A, myself and our old pal Cool Dog were just discussing this the other day.

Cool Dog explained to me that "With great strength, power, charm, good looks and intelligence comes great responsibility".

Sure - I could incapacitate these creeps with a snap of my powerful jaws, break their head open and feast on the goo inside - but where's the fun in justified cold blooded murder, eh???

i would like to volunteer my brother in law for any necessary practice.

Noted. One more word from him and he will be taken care of (in the Al Pacino sense).

Beeping your horn for some reason as you drive by charlie bird as he delivers the news update - what precisely is the thinking here ? Oh, if they hear my horn on tv, they will be able to identify it as mine and they will know it's me ? Idiots

Seeing your Derry city avatar (Aren't you Dundalk?) made me think of that NYC taxi experience an Irish journo had in the 70s, and want to paraphrase it thus:

I don't get you Irish. Catholics killing Protestants, Protestants killing Catholics. It makes no sense. Why don't you all get together and kill the scangers

From the BBC

Warrington Wolves have signed former Australia international three-quarter Joel Monaghan on a one-year contract.

The 28-year-old resigned from Canberra Raiders after he was photographed in a compromising position with a dog at their end-of-season party.

people shoving past you when you're at a gig. Is it too much to ask for a quick tap on the shoulder, and "excuse me" or "sorry, can I get past" ??
Was very close to tripping up one gimp who did it to me earlier.

Arcade Fire gig?

I had to carefully negotiate my way through the crowd to re-locate my brother at one point - but I made doubly sure to tap each and every shoulder on my way and roared many an "excuse me" en route!!! No shoving on my part, I hasten to add.

Great gig though, eh??

and I thank you for that. I'm a big enough guy and I can handle myself, but the girl who was standing next to me was nearly put over a few times

Yeah - it can be a tricky exercise trying to work your way through a crowd - particularly when the band are on stage.

There's a few people knocked into me - and looked at me as if I'd just kicked them in the head. A heady mix of drink and adrenaline can do strange things to ones sense of perspective.

That said, someone bashing into you with a blatant disregard for your welfare is particularly annoying - so I understand the point.

Speaking of the point - Sunday was the first visit to the "02". Good to see the old kip get a revamp all the same.

What about "could of", "would of", or is it just "should of" that bothers you?

Seriously though, couldn't agree more. I've noticed it a lot more recently for some reason.

There are some ads, especially on the radio, that annoy me so much I change the station. One at the moment is where the lady thinks that there must have been a misprint on the posters advertising a brand new Golf for €16,000.

Also, spending that kind of money on a car. Fair enough, maybe, if you're a car fanatic or loaded.
I like to think of negative meanings of ads. That one's a good example. I interpret her incredulity as being at an excessive price. Now, subconsciously, I think Golfs are overpriced. Eat **** and die, marketers.

That never occurred to me actually. I think they're overpriced anyway though, consciously and subconsciously.

I know. I was just playing with the whole "could've, would've, should've" thing I hear people say. Another thing I wouldn't mind banning actually, as it's usually aimed at me when I regret not doing something.

What about the radio ad, -man SHOUTING "Frank,Frank,super Frank,super Frankie Lampard" :(

Haven't heard it, sounds very annoying though. I also tend to change the TV channel when ads for road safety and poverty come on. To be fair though, the banning should probably be applied to my behaviour in these instances.
