RIP Sue & Sam.
I was waiting at the traffic lights in Bury one day when, just as the lights had gone green, a lad just casually walked in front on my car as I was setting off. I had to brake hard, but I made sure I was as close to him as I could get before I stopped. The horn was given a long blast too. Obvioulsy some cocky little scrote that thinks he can just walk in front of my car listening to his iPod and I'll let him get away with it.


Wrong.


Wrong - as in I was wrong. As the lad turned towards the car as I blasted the horn I realised he had Downs Syndrome and I'd just frightenened him to death. He dropped to his knees and started crying. I got out and was apologising and trying to help him up. He just sobbed and pushed me away. The woman who was in the car on my left at the lights gave me a fiflty look and drove on. This lad wasn't for moving and the cars that were beeping from behind my car weren't helping him calm down. I just kept apologising and asking him to get up so I could help him cross and get him off the road. Cars were driving past and blasting their horns The lights must have changed twice before he got up and carried on, still crying. I made sure he crossed safely this time and escorted him across the road.

I don't think I've ever felt as bad.
 
I was in a taxi in Washington DC with the wife being taken to a restaurant that we'd found in the Lonely Planet. When we got there it was closed, so we decided to go to the place we'd been the night before - in the same taxi.

I am an insufferable bore if I am hungry and I spent the next 15 minutes complaining that I was "hungrier than any human has ever been", "wasting away" and "falling down with hunger".

Tired of this, my wife decided to strike up a conversation with the taxi driver and as he didn't have an American accent asked him where he was originally from:

"Ethiopia" was the reply. The fat western tourist in the back felt more than a little guilty at his self-indulgent whinge-fest to say the least.

The thought of me asking whether or not he was drying his bollocks with a hair dryer whilst crossing the road is making me feel pretty awful right now.

Very good!
 
there were loads of us watching the city vs chelsea game at stamford bridge this season, at a mates house and when clattenburg didn't give us that penalty for the foul on silva the first thing that popped into my angry little head was to shout "fuck off clattenburg and get cancer you ****!!"

i quickly realised what i'd just said was horrendous and for a split second i was praying one of my mates who's dads very ill with cancer wasn't there and hadn't heard... turns out he was right behind me.
 
Being nice to Didactic the other day via PM when I discovered several of the pics of 'his friends' were actually from Russian sites.....he claimed he had been FB hacked, and now I discover he has been perma-banned for being a repeated fuckwit.

His posts made me cringe and laugh at the same time, and now I feel awful for being suckered in to being nice and feeling sorry for him. Shit.

so was he a complete fake?

i always got on with him.
 
Done the same thing to a bloke who cut out in front of me unexpectedly, (he was also driving a car), and made me swerve to avoid him. I went fucking mental, absolutely ape shit. Pulled up next to him at the lights and he was a really, really old man who was clearly shaken.
I actually pulled over into a lay-by and gathered my thoughts, as the look on his face was horrendous. Still can see it now.
