^^^ I have a theory on this, based on no expertise, training or qualifications. Just based on my (healthily proportioned) gut.
I would suggest that if you parked on your own in a supermarket carpark in a 15 year old Fiesta, no-one would park beside you. This is based, I believe, on the fact that no-one would notice you and therefore be inexplicably and subconciously attracted to you. However, do the same in a car which would be noticed, a Defender certainly being one, but also a 'sports' car etc, and people notice the car, stare at the car and much like a moth to light, get attracted to the area around the car as they choose their parking spaces. I see it all the time in my DCPU, but also my wife's new TT. Take our old mini down and try the same, no-one parks near us. It's the only reason I can think of. People parking at the subconcious level.  Monsieur Le Grenadier

GRRRR...
People who think they can cross a busy high street anywhere they please, especially when there are pedestrian crossings 50m apart. They cross, get halfway realise its too dangerous so they go back, had to do Two emergency stops because of the blighters. By far the worst offenders are the waterloo road estate people in romford. They would much rather run across a busy A road Dual carriageway, jump over a central reservation just so save them two minutes. Jesus christ you live close enough to the station what difference is two minutes when you're five minutes away from the station?

The ever increasing use of the word 'like' as a filler-word, replacing a simple pause or 'um' is becoming a blight on our beautiful language and making modern teens sound evermore stupid. Bloody American teens...

School children. An environmental disaster.
How come the traffic is so much lighter when the kids are not at school? The old park and ride bus whizzes in during the holidays and as soon as they go back to school, it's grid lock on the roads again. Is it not a simple decision to ban schooling to help the environment and keep the roads flowing free? |

Why not just ban children?
Solves almost all known problems in one go (except possibly the "who will look after today's children in their old age). |
