Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

[Worker]

I'm sure this has already been noted, but people reading or texting while walking along a footpath, platform, etc. No, it's OK, I'll do the looking and dodging, you enjoy your book. Or on a bad day, I'll do the looking but not the dodging.

How about a mother texting on phone as she pushes a pushchair across the strand! Not Kidding!

This current baking obsession and cup cakes, oooh are't i cool and "vintage" for baking cup cakes this weekend and then posting pictures of them all over facebook.

Personally, I don't think this one is irrational. This morning I caught the 8.36 from Denmark Hill. Half the train disembarks there, and the worst bit is by the stairs. I got really annoyed with the f***wits who decided that it was more important that they get on the train before everyone who need to got off. Was particularly incensed by one idiot who decided to get into the doorway and block half of it, thereby slowing things down even more. What is wrong with these people?

I waited till the passengers had got off, then walked halfway down the carraige and got a seat, before the train had departed, so there was plenty of time.

It's comic relief season... something easy to do with little thought... simple! ;-)

Arising from the toilet and finding the seat has stuck to my buttocks.

Not unlike TV chess, when one player triumphantly moves a piece and declares, "Checkmate!" If the other player didn't know he was one move away from mate (and therefore would have resigned), he's a pretty poor player and barely worth beating...

I don't think it is illegal in chess not to resign. And hey the winning player may make the wrong move or wish to toy with his/her victim a bit before the kill.

[BrandNewGuy]

:-) I said "not unlike" rather than "same as". I meant in terms of it being a completely unlifelike situation. I've just been Googling (in vain) to find out the last time there was a checkmate in a major tournament... I bet it was, er, a long time ago.
