People who use the phrase "killed or injured" as if they are the same thing. News presenters do it all the time. Being dead is not the same as not being dead.Good point, apart from the fact that about 35,000 people are killed or injured on rural roads every year.
Yes I do read what the dispenser says. Some, when you’ve tapped your number in asks you to enter, some don’t. I then go on to ask for a receipt with my cash, this by the way, after I’ve got a printed mini statement. I always take my time when getting money out and make sure I’m not distracted. I don’t give a damn how long I take but I know it’s not that long.The machine gives you 6 questions cash, cash and receipt etc. Everyone knows the questions and everyone knows what they want but I am sure woman still read every question. Then it gives you the amounts it can dispense. Even though they've just shouted to Tiffany that their getting 'twenny' out they study it like its a question on quantum physics.

So being hit by a car is fine then as long as it doesn’t kill you. Ok, noted.
Fucking bell end.
Neil Diamond is a brilliant singer/songwriter/artist and it’s a damn shame this great song has been hijacked by beer swilling football fans.Fucking ridiculous, especially seeing the England players after the Denmark semi singing it and fist throwing to the "So Good!, So Good!" parts.
Aston Villa are to blame for bringing it to these shores.
Neil Diamond is a crap singer and all his songs are crap too. I just don't get why the song was so well liked in the first place, although it only got to No.8.
Shoehorning the word "sweet" into the song as well. Total cringe.
No you prick. Being injured is not the same as being dead. It's not fucking rocket science.So being hit by a car is fine then as long as it doesn’t kill you. Ok, noted.

What if out of the 35,000 people "killed or injured" only 3 were killed and 34,997 were injured? It's a fucking meaningless statistic.

I didn’t say it was. Are you thick or pissed or senile?
About 1000 people each year are killed on rural roads. Took me 5 seconds to look that up. Happy now?
Fine being injured then is it? How would you feel if it was you or a loved one injured when walking / cycling etc on a rural road by some speeding blind fuckwit?
Honestly some people, Jesus fucking Christ.
Hahaha:) Tiffany….bloody hell:)Can't you just get Tiffany to do it next time?
You are the thickest **** on this forum. Being injured is not the same as being dead. An injury could be concussion, a broken arm, ruptured spleen and a thousand and one other things. Being dead is being dead. They are not the same thing. Killed or injured is a stupid way to present statistics because they are not the same thing. When some news presenter says 5,000 people have been killed or injured in an earthquake which is it? Killed or injured?I didn’t say it was. Are you thick or pissed or senile?

It's like saying my mate's a window cleaner. He fell off his ladder last week and he was killed or injured.
