Stupid little things that bug you

Chewing gum.

Serves no real purpose.

Tends to be found all over the pavements of the United Kingdom because people just spit it on the floor and walk away.

Seems to have become acceptable that chewing gum can be chewed with your mouth open at all times so you can see and hear everything about the whole chewing process.

Dundee is the chewing gum spattered capital of the UK. We went there some years ago and couldn't believe the amount of chewing gum on the pavements. In several places there was more chewing gum visible than there was pavement.

Strange phenomenon, never seen it in Australia come to think of it.
 
Driving my nephew home these past few nights, so many people out in the dark on these electric scooters without lights. Riding the scooter on the road, dressed in dark clothing, how the hell am I supposed to see you? Likewise cyclists without lights. I am a cyclist too, so I know all about riding about in the dark, yet I’m lit up like a Christmas tree. One night, someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed and I pity the poor car driver who will no doubt be on the receiving end of many a sleepless night, not to mention heaven knows what else. I just hope the driver isn’t me.

Get a dashcam. They bring a lot of peace of mind knowing youre being filmed being sensible around the madness.
