I'm probably one of the biggest culprits of doing this on these boards, but I do it out of the way of speaking within a post.

To me it is like speaking in a conversation, where you sort of pause, but haven't actually finished a train of thought. It is more than a comma, and less than a full stop.

I can't begin to tell you how much restrain I had to use there to stop doing it in this post. :rolleyes:

Plus your exaggerated example above is not a good use of doing this. That is more like quoting someone out of breath. :)

TC EAGLE 01-06-2015 08:28 AM

Dickheads who walk towards you more interested in looking at their f*cking mobile screen than where there walking, They eventually barge into you and tell you to "watch were your walking"

People who can see where you're walking but yet insist on walking into you.

Get cctv onto them, maybe the frighteners from the btp might stop them acting the twat so much. (if you can find the btp that is).

I am wondering what grounds the police might have to even talk to them never mind arrest them.

But you are right they are complete fools.

Put a 2-3ft medium soft rubber plank on the outside of your cab, rather like the indicators that flicked out on cars back in the day.

Get a line painted an equal distance and warn any ****** who decides to push, jump or stand inside that line that they WILL get walloped.

Would sort the selfish ***** out within the week!

Yes....it's a pause.

Perfectly fine in a conversational piece such as this forum. Many worse spelling mistakes and grammatical errors are rife on these threads.

But these only become a problem when it becomes hard to understand what people are trying to say.

People who get to a mainline station, find the underground station temporarily closed due to congestion and then find the necessity to take a picture of people in a queue and then post it on social media. Firstly,you are a sad wanker for taking a picture of a queue and an even sadder one to think that anyone unfortunate to be connected with you online is remotely interested.

Little Fozzie 02-06-2015 10:11 PM

People on busy train platforms who decide to stand right on the yellow line, forcing anyone who wants to get to the other end to walk along the ede of the platform edge.

Holding a glass door open for someone coming the other way, who then walks through without saying a word, even a cheeky one like 'cheers doorman'. Sorely tempted to retrieve him and put him back through said glass door, without opening it. Common assault laws are so biased in favour of the rude and the smug.

This is going to cause problems.

The endless bloody begging adverts for starving Africans and their kids. I watched Sky News this morning and every advert break was plastered by these begging commercials. Do they not get enough on Red Nose Day and all year round related charities?

The place never improves and hasn't done so since the first Live Aid day in the 80s yet they still find money to buy weapons to slaughter each other with.

If they're starving and so weak as portrayed on these adverts how come they have enough energy to shag and shag to produce more and more starving kids?

If I haven't eaten much the day before I can barely raise a morning wank let alone bang another kid out.

Whilst we're on shop pricing: shops that at checkout add up all the reductions you've benefitted by and tell you how much you've saved.
I haven't saved anything you tart. In case you haven't noticed I've just SPENT $85. Just price the ******* stuff properly FFS!
