Thanks NLR -  didn't explain why I had no problems before or since but it was useful 

Dear tourists in St James's Park,

Please stop feeding the pigeons. Please stop chasing the pigeons. Pigeons are not a rare and beautiful species,  they are crap-happy vermin, and, unless you live at one of the poles you probably have them somewhere in your own country. Go and feed them there.

Ditto seagull feeders in Margate!

Love the term "elitist bum-head"

Beverley T - Hi. Isn't not starting running til late in life not lack of training?. Good first effort though and I'm sure you will be sub 4.30 next time. I run with lots of ladies who run sub 3.45 in their 50's. In my opinion the longer the distance the more effort counts rather than ability. The marathon is the race where you can beat the person who outruns you at every other distance. There have been some very interesting stories in RW recently about sedentry people who came to running late in life and have done amazing things.

back to the thread;

To charity muggers- I'm sorry I don't even stop for the pretty ones.......

To big issue sellers- sorry but I'm not going to fund your lifestyle choice.......

and if it was worth reading i might buy it...........

Err what now NLR - being homeless is a lifestyle choice? Yeah, sure it is. i've worked with homeless people and not one of them decided one day to give up their job / home / family to sleep rough and lose their dignity. 

I know this is the thread where you can say what you like, and you've let us know how amazingly ignorant someone can be, well done, good effort.

ANTB - Don't feed the troll!! I tell you what though he/she is good at it and this is the perfect thread for it, surpised we've not had more comments like that on here!

Dear FatWoman with your FatKids

May I remind you that it is illegal to park with all four wheels of your oversized FatMobile on the pavement. I realise that having to waddle more than 5 yards to the door of the cream cake shop is far too taxing and the double yellow lines mean that you can't park on the road. However, the pavement is now completely blocked and everyone else now has to step out into the traffic to get past.

...feed me instead ANTB, i'm hungry and still have the commute home to get through

*stomach rumbles loudly*

I could murder a sausage right now (sarnie that is ) mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'm all ranted out   Oh no wait, i've just thought of something...

Dear Government,

why oh why oh why do we have to pay extortionate amounts of money for the Pope to pay a visit????  Do slightly guff roads really need to be tarmac'd for him to drive over?  I don't think he'll be that bothered.  Should his followers be asked to pay money to hear him give mass?  NO!!! What a con.  I thought religion was supposed to be free?  I'm sure Gandhi wouldn't have charged.  If he can't come and do a mass for free, then he can bugger off (though i'm not Catholic, so i'm not fussed anyway).

Yours rather Insincerely

Pea-ster

p.s. I do not expect to be struck down by lighting for slagging off the Pope, but then again, who knows... *puts on rubber soled boots just in case...*

I live near the stretch of road in Edinburgh that was specially resurfaced for his visit and it's hilarious - they've literally done less than 100m, outside the house he's visiting, and there are still huge potholes in the roads at either end. So unless the Popemobile is going to hover up the road (which, frankly, I would pay to see), it''s not going to help much!

Trouble is if you make being homeless comfortable enough people will decide to do it as a lifestyle choice. Do people force drugs on these people? And the people who get paid to work with them will of course want to keep the gravy train rolling. In years to come i will be prooved right just like i have said about the charity fat cats who have used runners for years to fund their salaries. Wait for Dispatches to out them or believe me now folks- of course you wont!!

Should be a special page for the JW's of the world to go and slowly die of being boring middle class farts

NLR if you would like a proper discussion about homelessness, charity fundraising and any relationship between the two then I am happy to have a discussion offline about it. Just message me through the forum. Homelessness is rarely, if ever, a lifestyle choice. Yes, many homeless people do appear to be drink and drug ab/users but there are many reasons for that.

Dear colleague, you are 31 years of age would you STOP speaking in that hideous baby voice? You only put it on when you want something (usually food) and it is intensely annoying, instead of trying to be cute all the time why don't you learn to do your job properly then people might not bitch about you so much.

Your mood swings are also INSANE and you are possibly the most unprofessional person I have ever met.

I THANK YOU


That made me laugh my head off!

How funny Rodent!! I would also pay to watch the Popemobile hover!!!!!!! Is it especially mean to hope the car tyre bursts after bouncing out a pot hole at the end?? Mwah ha ha ha ha.

NLR, the running stuff is always debatable, but thinking homelessness is a lifestyle choice is totally fecking bonkers, and smacks of just trying to provoke an argument. If you worked with or had anything at all to do with people who may live on the fringes of society for one reason or another, you might not be so disparaging. Yeah, some people do make mistakes, and do things they shouldn't (lets face it, who doesn't at some point in their life?), but getting to that stage is not desirable, and if it is, then what kind of hell must one be running from to choose to be homeless?

Diversity in the workplace  was invented by workshy social workers as an excuse to get out of doing any proper or worthwhile work

The probation service doesn't work and they should be forced to move next door to  all the little shi** that they look after.

NLR -Homeless as a lifestyle choice!? You ever been there? I like ANTB have worked with the homeless and been so myself. Then you go on about boring middle class farts! OK , they get on my tits too. But the homeless    comment? -well ,  how boring, middle class (of Daily Mail variety ) and fartish is that?

Dear people who think designing jeans with a 32 leg as standard is a good idea

 its not

 Ive got a 30 inside leg at best.

 I know I should be tall and skinny but Im not Im short and skinny so when you put jeans in your shops with a 30 or even a 29 leg they start at a 36 waist

 it aint funny.

Try M&S, Goldbeetle

I do wish I'd popped back in here before responding to NLR on the Reading Groups  thread. If I had, I would have saved my breath. Silly people like him are really not worth expending  pecious (sic) time over.

Yes, much better not to respond
