What I love is when I'm on the inside lane going straight, and the idiot in the outside lane is trying to turn right in front of me. Happens routinely on the Marshland Road roundabout in ChCh. If I may borrow your phrase:

+1 when cycling. Far too many fuckers pass you on the right and then turn left a couple of metres after passing, as if you cease to exist once you leave their field of view. A slight variation on that is passing you just before an intersection, hugging the left kerb to make the turn and then stopping suddenly part way through the turn.

GMG cyclists and their "right to the road" attitude.

You cost more in ACC claims/fees than motorbikes. Yet they are raising the levys for those and your still getting a free ride. In addition acting like dicks by riding up infront of cars at traffic lights and slowing shit down because "you have a right to be there", get the fuck out the way or accelerate to the speed limit in a decent time, eg before christmas (very few cyclists do but there are some I'll give you that). Assholes.

Pay some road tax.

If your not in the way, no problem, which I thought was part of the reason for riding a bicycle.
If your pulling infront of cars at lights that have stopped and then slowly pulling away/ or just occupying a lane without pulling out of the way like some self righteous asshole.
Your a pain in the ass.

Doesn't take much to get the fuck out of the way of traffic thats going faster than you, if not for your own safety.
If my car was a piece of shit and slow up hills, I'd pull over to the side to allow people to pass ... its not hard.

Quote:

They bought a modest house in Papatoetoe for $279,000, paying off the mortgage at $1200 a fortnight. The interest rate dropped this year. But they used the difference to take a new loan for a car.

1) Stop buying expensive crap on HP. Save the money up and buy it cash. If you can't save up enough money to buy it cash, you will not be able to pay the HP repayments either, hence you do NOT buy the item!

2) Talk to your bank, refinance the mortgage. If you cannot refinance, sell the fucking house! Or do you prefer being forced out by a mortgagee sale and ending up with an outstanding mortgage amount and no house?

3) When financial conditions improve, use the extra cash to pay off existing debts, don't pile on more! Sell the "new" car, asshats!

4) $1200/fortnight for a mortgage is MASSIVE. Just because one rental house was damp you go and buy a house? Why on earth would you think that paying that is better than renting somewhere else? Did you even do the fucking maths?!? You can rent a REALLY NICE PLACE for less than 2/3rds of that, and you won't be living in Papatoetoe!

The only good thing about retards like this is that they provide the rest of us with mortgagee sales so that we get a chance to pick up a cheap house...

They do ... but its not hard to pull to the side and allow faster moving traffic to pass, if not for your own safety, the rest of the post (the bits you neglected to quote) and the subsequent clarification post cover the reasons for GMG.

It even states it in the road code about slow vehicles moving to the side so others can pass, if your "supposed to be treated like a car" then fucken act like one.

Note - http://www.ltsa.govt.nz/roadcode/abo...ed-limits.html

Quote:

If you are travelling slower than the speed limit and there are vehicles following you, you must:

* keep as close to the left side of the road as possible
* pull over as soon as it is safe to let following vehicles pass.

A cyclist riding in the middle of the road doing 20-30k's in a 50+ area makes that guy a dick, some cyclists can go fucken fast no doubt there. But some are just tools about it (notably more in Auckland town that outside areas...), since my mad max dream hasn't come true I have to abide by the rules and not go thunderdome on his lane blocking slow ass.

As I said, in the same situation where I was in a slow car slowing people down, I would our of courtesy move my ass off to the side of the road, or even pull over and let the groups of people pass. Even though I have the same "right to the road" that doesn't give me "the right to be a dick" as some cyclists seem to exploit/abuse at various points. Parking infront of traffic at the lights is a perfect example of being a dick and slowing the flow of traffic, when a minor change could have avoided said dickery, slow/shit scooters/mopeds are just as guilty of this.

Don't let the hands bring cakes to the mouth crocos, stop that shit, you need to control your arms and make sure they don't let the hands near your mouth. Try strapping some splints to your elbows so you can't bend them.

Some things you need for modern living; Fridge & washing-machine are two of them. However you're right that it doesn't need to be HP'd - there's perfectly good 2nd hand whiteware around, for a fraction of the price of new.

Actually it's not - that's quite reasonable... for a mortgage. No argument with the false economy of their situation though - they were not in a position where they should be purchasing.
