I'm talking highway here.
I'm just really surprised by the way Americans drive (or maybe it's Californians) now that I'm thinking about it. It would be great if one of them would ever use the hazards, that way I can keep even more distance. -
Talking of twat drivers, I was about to emerge from a T junction yesterday when a car approaching from the left flashed me... then continued driving.
Now, people always flash you (wahey) in these situations to let you go. She didn't do that and was presumably just ensuring I knew she was coming... but visibility was fine. -
That’s common in China - flashing lights and a beep of the horn don’t mean you can go, they mean make sure you see where I am because like fuck am I gonna slow down and let you through.

That suggests that the driver has ample awareness of your intention to join the road and the time to let you out, but instead choose to come the cunt and let you know about it for good measure. Amazing. -
Just press up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A for infinite lifts.Nina wrote:
Yes that's why you press all the buttons. (I do know how to use an lift btw, guess I just like pressing buttons. It's even worse when there's no light behind the button that goes on / changes colour after you've pressed it. How do you know you were actually strong enough to push it.)Yossarian wrote:Yeah, if you want to go up, push up. When you have more than one lift but only one button, how would it work otherwise if one lift was above you and one was below you? -

Yup. China is so aggressively "me first" in any public place. I've seen cars speed up in order to close a gap and prevent other cars from merging, because, you know, this is my space and I was here first, fuck you. -

Huh. I wasn't looking for confirmation that I'm an angry driver today but there it is. -

The way it’s so hard for your brain to accept that an escalator isn’t moving even though it’s clearly not moving.

I hate that feeling, nothing yo can do about it either. I wonder if just painting that stripey pattern on a normal set of stairs would also induce it"I spent years thinking Yorke was legit Downs-ish disabled and could only achieve lucidity through song" - Mr B -
People that comment 'who?' under articles about actors/musicians/celebrities they've never heard of.

She was spot on though; flashing lights or using the horn is meant to convey "I'M HERE LOOK AT ME!"

In Ireland, putting on your hazards is a way to say thanks to the driver behind you, which I find just plain weird. Here it means be careful because you're slowing down abruptly. -
My car has an ariel but it doesn't have a font.

Yes, technically. But nobody in this country ever actually does that using the lights. It was made worse that she was also slowing down to turn into the junction I was emerging from but didn't indicate until she was almost at the junction.
I never put my hazards on to say thank you. Everyone else in the world seems to. -
yeah but you just use the hazards that way with a quick flash or two...someone lets you out, you get in front of them, pop the hazards on...off. often only if it's darker too, if a hand wave wouldn't be seen.
if there's an incident ahead, stick the hazards on and leave them on. in the unlikely event someone lets you out straight into unexpected danger...fuck 'em!
"Like i said, context is missing."

Most people use their hazards to mean one of two things.
“Thank you.”
“I know I’m parked somewhere I shouldn’t be but special flashy lights make okay.” -
The latter really gets my goat.
