Wot?  Oops.

I am engaged, not on any medication, work hard but also am able to save money, I have a good cadre of friends, I exercise regularly, am a little weak in my arms, admittedly, but aside from that everything else is tickety boo

I just realized this thread has the potential to divide the forum.

Come on in.

God I want this to become the middle class snobbery thread

And of course your lorded over position as our supreme being.

I drive a hatchback built in 2009 and as such am better than people who drive hatchbacks of a similar class built at any time before then.  If I pay for a meal at a restaurant, it's mine and I reserve the right to not eat parts of it because I either don't feel like it or because I'm avoiding carbs.  

I live in a safe, leafy suburb and will speak sternly to anybody in my suburb about the dangers of 'lowering the tone' if they are not dressed appropriately.

I will often take up more than one car space because others are careless and might damage my car when they open the squealing door of their Sigma.  I don't bother acknowledging other drivers when they let me in to a lane or through a narrow street because I am entitled to these allowances.  I will slow down to a near stop in traffic when searching for the ideal parking spot because, again, I am entitled to it.

I don't have a car. Bus or bike coz I'm Clegg.

After a couple of years where things seemed to be crumbling around me with work and loved ones, the last year has been one of relative normality.

I'm enjoying work more, I've lost one and a half stone over the last five months which has reaped many benefits, the missus is healthy and we look forward to building on this for the future.

It's sometimes hard to enjoy this normality as you feel there should be more to life, bigger house, kids, etc. but when your cards are dealt, you have to make the best hand with what you've got.

Turn off all media that tells you you need to continually improve.

I'm right there with you bud.  Sometimes when I am stopped in traffic and preoccupied with Important Things, I don't bother indicating to turn right until I reach the intersection and/or the light turns green, because maybe I'll go straight instead of turning, even though I am 99% sure I want to turn.  You shouldn't be behind me anyway because for all you know I could turn right at any time, so if you beep me I won't understand what your problem is.

Yesterday morning I had my first violin lesson since I was thirteen. Right now I am eating a bowl of porridge with nothing on it. This afternoon I will draw some flowers.

I used to play violin at school but was never fully committed. I mimed my way through a schools concert at the Leeds Town Hall.

I drive a Volvo.

I also shout at the TV. I hate reality TV and consider it the latest opiate of the masses. I hate how documentaries are dumbed down and how little content there is an any programme on commercial channels.

I hate the sight of pound shops (but not the use of..)

I use an iPod (but still like to buy CDs) and a Kindle (though I still like big coffee table books) and I still have a "regular" hifi separates system

Highway code actually says not to wave people across. Since a car could be coming the opposite direction and splat them.
