Well done you - you spotted a cyclist doing something stupid (and it is stupid to ride at night without lights)


The other day, I spotted a man in a van doing something stupid. He was driving his van, on his phone and nealry knocked me off my bike. Lets start a thread now "ban van drivers from the road"


In fact, we can start campaigns for both of these things. I love blaming the worlds woes on specific minority groups - its great

"dismissing someone's point because of bad spelling or grammar is poor."


I'd generally go along with that. On the other hand....


"All cyclist belong under a bus and they should all be mad to wear hi- vis targets on there back and a scoring system put in place and I can see the gramma nazi are out in force good times"


..there does appear to be some correlation between using no punctuation at all and being a complete tw%t.

Now we are onto the highest level of taking a 'rise'. This is when the game usually gets pretty polarised and nasty, however, on this occasion, I think a whole host of rather poor attempts have become so desperately predictable that we can see through them. Ah well guys, better luck next time.

Unless I'm badly mistaken dulwichbeekeeper is not being serious.

    • Hello All, I'm starting a fun, online Philosophy class for kids - designed to spark curiosity, build critical thinking, and create space for big conversations! 🧠 What is it? Each week, we'll explore a fascinating question like: What makes something fair? Can animals think like humans? What is truth, and how do we know it? Using stories, games, and open discussion, kids will learn how to ask great questions, listen respectfully, and express their own ideas with confidence. No prior knowledge needed - just imagination! 💻 How it works: 1-hour sessions on Saturdays at 2pm.  Hosted online via Zoom (more information on this will be given if you choose to sign up).  Small group sizes to keep things personal and interactive. £15 per session (per child). 🎓 A bit about me: My name is Connor, and I'm a recent philosophy graduate. I'm passionate about helping kids discover the joy of thinking deeply and creatively. Philosophy isn't about getting the "right" answer - it's about learning to explore ideas in thoughtful and respectful ways. I believe every child is a philosopher at heart!  📩 Interested? Send me a direct message on here to sign up or ask any questions, or ask below! I'd love to hear from you. 🙂
    • It could be a brilliant idea.  For local traders.  
    • I can't remember how I found Robert, but it was obviously from a recommendation, and a good one at that. Robert services our boiler every year, and offers good advice. He is also a really thorough plumber.  We had a tap that was not running, and through patience, and a process of elimination, he resolved the problem 👍. A reliable guy, good value, and efficient in every way.  Good to know him.
