Driver's Grumps: Ever Fantasized About This?

Cloverleaf Interchange

Ever come down one of these, merging into traffic, just as someone else cuts in front of you in such a douche baggy way it makes you wish you had not given them the chance? I often fantasize about being obnoxious and matching my speed to theirs just to see the look on the jackasses' faces as they miss their turn.

Kuwait Traffic Police Shenanigans: Case #674

Nearly took part in an involuntary pile-up on the slip road heading onto the sixth ring road off the fifty-five, because a cop decided to cut across from the overtaking lane and come to a complete stop on the narrow shoulder where the slip road begins.

Bad idea? I think so!

Dear Webmasters, why do Web Surfers Block ads?

BECAUSE THEY CAN HARBOUR MALICIOUS SCRIPTS AND WE DON'T TRUST THEM. Thank you for NOT asking me to please disable my ad blocker just so you can line your pockets and I can risk threats to my computer.

Seriously, I'm tired of websites drowning in ads asking me to disable my only insurance against questionable scripts. You may be signed up to the best ad providers out there, but I still don't trust them, neither do I want sixteen billion flashing images blinding me, nor audio or video suddenly blasting in the background.

If my contribution (or lack of it) leads to you having to close down your site, well commiserations my friend, but I'll probably find what I need elsewhere without the obnoxious advertising.

For those interested in good script and ad blocking extensions for chrome (and I believe Firefox also has the same) check out Ad Block Plus and Ghostery. They've made my surfing experience a true ad-free joy.
