    9/11 theorists as well.
    Condescending attitudes like yours towards conspiracies, help hide the real ones. Do you believe everything that Governments tell the public and the media ?

    Drivers who don't indicate. I notice it more as a pedestrian, a lot seem not to bother when there are no other cars around.

    Does 'pot/kettle' have an inverse?

    Universities who accept foreign students based on their financial contributions, irrespective of their actual capabilities to read, write or speak in the English language.

    People who drive in the middle lane regardless to how busy/quiet the inside or outside lanes are.

    People who listen to music through their phones/mp3 players in public without headphones.

    Zealots/fundamentalists of any religious/political belief system.

    Grown men who walk around wearing football tops or even worse, football strips.

    People who cannot admit they're wrong, or that they know the square root of FA about subjects they are particularly vocal on.

    Being subjected to 'classical pop' such as Van Morrison (Brown Eyed Girl), The Foundations (Build Me Up Buttercup), Abba (Insert any song here), Dolly Parton (9 til 5) etc etc at ANY function/party.

    People who attempt to rush onto the train/tube before people have disembarked.

    People who use their phones, talk or behave like wee fannies at the cinema.

    Snobbery.
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    1. People who join up the first part of one word with the last part of a second word to make up one single word.

    E.G.

    Do you want to take a guesstimate at how long it will take?

    No, I would like to take a guess or I would like to estimate. I certainly would not like to guesstimate.

    Or

    Just chillax, mate.

    No, I would either like to chill or I would like to relax.



    2. Drivers who do not indicate - the people who designed cars could not have made indicating any simpler, the indicators are actually beside the steering wheel!



    3. People who do not say please and thank you.



    4. People who drop litter, especially those who actually pass by a bucket about two seconds after dropping said litter.



    5. People who park in disabled parking bays when the person who is the badge holder clearly isn't in the car.



    That will do for now. I'm sure I'll be back later.

    Nope, I didn't believe them when they said Iraq still had WMDs. I would have thought a belief in all the theories helps hide the real ones.

    The fact that The Russians don't dispute that it took place surely tells you all you need to know.

    Lily Allen. I mind in a spat she had with some other pop singer who said that she was middle class replied "So what if my mum got off her fat arse to work for a living" (or words to that effect).

    Easy enough to ignore the issues of social mobility when you're born with a silver spoon in your mouth.

    Horrible person and all her songs are **** too.

    Exactly, what would the Soviets gain from remaining silent?

    I believe it may have been staged. There have allegedly been six manned moon landings. Also during the supposed landings there is sketchy footage and pieces missing during the broadcasts and also the ufo sightings covered up. Do you believe nasa was warned off the moon by other intelligent life if they ever made it there?

    1969...when video capture and multinational relay technology was still in its early phase with low resolution sensors, intermittent transmitter strength and no such thing as digital or optical signals...they hadn't perfected transmission of video signals on Earth, never mind from the bloody Moon.

    Really? I'm really hoping I've just chomped on a huge fishing experiment...

    I don't think nasa were warned off the Moon at all. If the 'ufo sightings' were covered up then how do you know they occured? I thibk the story do far answers your other point fairly well. Am I being reeled in as well?

  19. #78
    I may be wrong, perhaps someone else can answer this? But I think nasa intend to go back as part of a manned mission to Mars.

    Yep, definitely Facebook.
    People meeting someone they know and blocking the whole shopping aisle.
    Edinburgh taxi drivers, the greenways is not enough road for them.
    Shop assistants chatting on the phone whilst serving you.
    Customers who sit on your shoulders watching your every move whilst you are working in their property.

    There are also several pictures allegedly from the moon with areas of the photo blanked out along with the 2 minutes of footage missing from the supposed first landing that NASA don't want you to see. Why would they blank out certain areas on pictures?

    Were they really there and there was something they didn't want the public to see in the pictures or was it a man made structure back on earth they were blanking out?

    In The "scheme" I stay

    Works and married = posh!

    Or so I've been told numerous times in the pub!

    Though those words are not what you've said they are. They are the whole of the first word and part of a second.

    You'd shirley not object to "slithy", as in "slithy toves", a portmanteau of slimy and lithe? That's literature, that is!

    As someone mentioned earlier ,folk who get on a bus then fumble about for money. Did it come as a surprise that a monetary transaction would be needed ya spangle?

    I'm a celebrity. Tv by the desperate for the hard of thinking.

    News channels that send university educated reporters out to report on bad weather. I dinny need to watch some sad sack getting blown about by a hurricane to appreciate what wind and rain looks like
