Things that bemuse, perplex, befuddle and flummox you

[Ferrins]

My brother runs into at least 5 things a year while driving. I am the only one who reverses out of our driveway, everyone else drives around the back of the house and do a 3 point turn. I have had a shot at them all about wrecking the lawn in the wet. Last night my said brother decides to reverse out and hits a tree and rips the side mirror clean off. He needs to borrow my car now$#@^&

Being woken up in what I thought was the middle of the night by a group of 'boisterous' lads walking down the street after a night out. I heard the more sober one of the group telling one of the more drunken ones to "hurry up. I want to go out to a club in the city". Then I heard one suggest Fortitude Valley. I looked at the time & noticed it was 5.30am. FFS!! Wanting to go out at 5.30am? I must be getting old.

I hope this was last night, as it's only 9:20pm right now. So either its last night, or your clocks are about 8hrs ahead of time. Or you're 8hrs ahead. One of the 3

Correct; and the irony was, if my comp at Pacific Harbour hadn't've been cancelled, I probably would've been loading clubs into the car at that time & getting a good eyeball full outside.

Lefty, what does Dave mean?

[Ferrins]

Someone borrowed a new pair of shoes off me and didn't like them and threw them out and someone else found them in the bin and them gave them to someone else. I saw the someone else wearing them and said WTF but he's not wanting to give them up.

Basically put, Dave1 is confused as to why he is a blessed being. His life has turned into a pleasant experience for him despite his belief that he has not done the required legwork to deserve such utopia.Not doing the research legwork myself I am neither qualified to agree, nor disagree.

Quite often I am heading out to golf at 6:30am on Saturday at the same time as my 21 year old son is coming in the front door from a night out ... damn I am getting old

Driving to work in the morning there is quite a few slow patches, where a number of drives seek to dive up the inside lane and then cut in, fair enough I'm sure they achieve alot in there small minds. FFS there going to work whats the big hurry!

[AndyP]

In China, that is an extra lane, maybe even two.

for bikes?

[AndyP]

for bikes?

No. Following the lines of the road is just a rough guideline over there. When the traffic gets slow, new "lanes" popup wherever there is just enough room. It's crazy.

They even will drive on the wrong side of the road wherever possible. To the point of almost playing chicken.

My cousin lives in Bali, one time he is catching a flight out, and is told the traffic is insane, no way can he get to the airport by cab. So he grabs his motorbike, puts a mate on the back and loads it up with his bags and surfboard and off they go.

Get to the main road and traffic is at a standstill and he realizes he can't even sneak through the gaps fullly laden. But the other side of the road is stone motherless empty of cars, and he wonders why all the other bikes are not taken advantage. What the hell, he crosses over and is flying along making great time and notices most that are in the traffic seem to be watching him, he figured it was because he was so clever.

He is shortsighted. And did not have glasses on and he could see something ahead, it wasn't until he got very close that he realizes they are heavily armed soldiers and he got off he road when he saw that they were not very happy.

About a minute later Barak Obama drives past.

Good post - I have done well without being a workaholic ...I just dont know how or why?

Yep merge lanes and when there are two lane roads and the right hand lane is slower than the left.

Trying out contact lenses today, first time using them for 20 years. Everything looks great but now can't see a thing on my bloody phone, remote controls or medicine packets.

I have no idea whether I just took my vitamins or the missus hormone supplements.
