Mistaking the accelerator of my car for the brake and munting the shed doors. Not very happy with myself right now. One rather unpleasant phone call to the landlord coming up shortly.

Unfortunately for my family the lads on the pod lied - I have no boyfriend. Also heaven forbid one of the mods was my baby daddy, poor poor child that would be.

That seems like a cross between a humblebrag or a first world problem, but I'm not quite sure which.

I guess you can make up your own mind, but that is what I have to do plus an hours drive to the airport.

To the Hugely obese F*cker at the Lighthouse at Pauatanhui during the Hobbit today. Who had to eat x 3 bags of lollies possibly Skittles through around a 3rd of the movie. Thank you for adding your own brand of sound effects. It really added to the movie.

If you Mother is reading this, (you went with her today), mum why did you not instill some sort of discipline in your child when it comes to food? Why could he not settle for one bag of Skittles?

He was hardly going to starve during the film was he?

Sad thing the guy was in his 20's. I wanted a word but was told no by Vickmeist. In my Dad's day I would have had a word. I remember when I was with my Dad,he would have been around 44ish, he had almost had a punch up with this bloke cuse of a parking thing.

The thing is my Dad basically said 'alright then" and the other guy backed down.  My dad was smaller than the other guy - but this guy knew he was going to lose. My Dad was no boxer or anything he was just from an age where men sorted stuff out.

Now I have to sit in silence so not to cause a scene. Job stuff I'm not allowed to get into trouble - they wonder about men losing their identity.

Still I've had a few glasses of red wine and I don't condone violence but posturing in conflict is as old as the world and causes a lot less casualties.

Junior, Tegal,  etc help me out.

I work at a cinema and occasionally get people like this. What gets me is they'll get all this food then go "oh I better have a diet coke" or when you ask them if they want cream on their sundae they go "oh nah I'd better not"

Farking seriously?!

Actually I wouldn't take to the guy.  I like all skittles really.

But I do sympathise with FT.  If someone was eating noisily nearby for much of the film I would be extremely annoyed.  Unfortunately as it is dark you can't do passive aggressive stares so a few firm words would seem to be warranted.


We saw the Hobbit on Tuesday at Reading - 'twas good (Peter Jackson as the first character of the first scene).  A smattering of other people all sitting and eating quietly.  No violence was required.

Totally understand where you are coming from. Its today's generation and just being so fucking apathetic to anything that requires effort or trying - I don't have to run cause I can get lap band surgery. 

I had a conversation with a kid on Xmas day who was all of about 16-17 and she said 'Oh you don't speak my language' and I said 'You're right. Unlike you, I'm educated enough to know what vowels are and where they go in the sentence.' Her mum laughed and I said to her 'Oh and how do you help the fucking problem Einstein'.

Is the problem the fat person eating too much food or the fat person making too much noise? I can sympathise with the latter but I couldn't care less about what someone else is eating whether its soy milk and celery or two pizzas and a diet coke.

It's the latter if I read FT's post correctly.  


But of course it would be nice to lecture the lad and his mum on good eating habits too!

Enjoyed this debate "specially" JV's post, (see what I did there?) Well done Jeff that made me laugh!

No - more than happy for the guy at the film to eat himself into the grave, it's his choice.

My point is that in times past it was ok to have a word if someone was being a twat. Now you can't. It's that simple.

No FT, you still can. It just in years gone by a: you would not act like a twat in the first place and be respectful of others b: the parents would have said something first c: had you said something, because someone older had spoken, people might have checked themselves. Now, you get this stupid yolo response or the fingers or to mind your own business because they have no pride or respect for themselves. I see it typified by the kids that have these pants that are hitched around their ass (which I am sure is a signal for 'guys fuck me here') alsorts of stupid piercings and tattoos which seems socially acceptable and common, that were the domain of punk rockers years ago and girls that wear less clothing that I do to the beach.

Generation Y - why do I have to, why can't you do it for me, why is it like that, but why. Now with increasing amounts of entitlement, narcissism and stupidity
