Not thinking the street food trend is uber cool means I'm not "grasping the point"? What a curious assessment.

You could always buy a Ginsters in the Texaco garage and sit on the Goose Green roundabout and eat it. If you ask them nicely they might just charge you double so that it feels more "authentic".

It's generally far from cheap though. Restaurant priced food that you have to stand and eat in the street served from a hygienically questionable van? No thanks.

Street food and pop ups are two of the most irritating cultural developments of recent years.

Rather odd that you don't say where this occurred....

At around 3.15pm last Friday.

As long as he doesn't sketch any "gross women" putting on their make up because then I'd have no idea who to hate the most....

Not good advice because unfortunately she won't win. Whether you agree with the rules or not they were broken in this instance, so to fight it would be futile and more expensive than just paying up.

The link doesn't work without a login but if you're effectively double parked for 2 minutes then you don't really have a leg to stand on.

Maybe get Vicanna to charm the locks off if he isn't too busy breaking into derelict buildings?

People's incorrect use of "adverse" and "averse" - for example, "I am not adverse to using English incorrectly." Affect/effect - that's v. irritating. I also hate people using "text" as the past tense of text. it's "TEXTED"!

If it counts then how about people saying "Here, here" instead of the correct "Hear, hear"? In the internet it would seem only a minority get it right.

They should be killed for their lack of bags and the colour of the shopfront. Going out of business wasn't a big enough punishment.

Eleventy to one before twelvety.

I suspect Vicanna has been booted out of other forums, judging by his posting style.

Put a turd in the envelope. That'd been fun.

Hated her and all she stood for but there is nothing fresh to be said about her. The woman's dead. Bye. Let's move on. Russell Brand wrote a brilliant Guardian article. I'd recommend that people read it.

If you boil rice on public transport you are a slut.

Are you morbidly obese? I've never had any problems with this.

I don't know exactly - they had to drug me to get me there and my recollection is hazy to say the least.

It was turned into luxury apartments Annette - I went to a friend's engagement party there last year at her parents' place. Very nice too. Much smarter than when you were an inpatient...I mean last there.
