And London Claims They're a City!

[1X83Z]

Yes, as you can see by the smiley on the outside of this "thread," I'm angry. Angry because I've been lied to. All my life, they've told me that London is a city. But now, I ask. If London was a real city, shouldn't they have automobiles? Obviously. But they haven't got any, as proven below...

...the streets of this two-story town "London" have no cars on them, two days in a row. I'm surprised they're even paved, or this 'city' has cameras, or that the residents of this car-less village even know what a camera is.

Why is the lighting on the left side of the street different on the 28th? Now that is odd. I mean, it's not like there's any cars passing through the dilapidated junction.

 

[1X83Z]

I just realised those lights on the left are from a car. I take it all back.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

Maybe you should be in The Rumple Club too

 

[1X83Z]

Well, I take that back. Those lights aren't from a car, because there's a carless shot (not surprising - ahem, ahem) some time later with the same lighting.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

I think the road is wet on the bottom pic so it is giving off a bit more shine, but who knows.

Didn't you know England (yes, England in all) have jack all cars o nthe streets.

Oh. That would explain it.

 

[Acid X]

Check it out 3 hours later:

 

[Acid X]

These people need to learn how to drive.. Jeeze...

[The Porko]

[Race Idiot]

Uh, yeah thats totally correct.

Roll and eyes dude, roll and eyes.

 

[Acid X]

You know, i just noticed. See that van in the second pic, right above "Chelsea Embmt"?

Look about 10 cars back in the first pic and you'll see the same van... Traffic must be pretty bad for a car only to move that far in 5 minutes!

Jeeze.

Oh, and race idiot, it IS a flyover camera.. Meaning theres a helicopter or satellite that takes its picture.. It might just not be in the area.

No the road is called a flyover, because it goes over some urban traffic jammed up areas, so in theory you fly over the traffic.

 

[Talentless]

There are cars there, but they are the popular micro, yet fuel-efficient cars that our neighbors so adore. Hold a magnifying lens to the picture. I see three Peugeot Nanotechs.

 

[1X83Z]

Yeah - a 'flyover' is like an off-ramp that goes above traffic.

 

[The Porko]

how do i get the chelsea bridge camera

 

[1X83Z]

Porko -

http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/travel/jamcams/

That's the link to all the cameras.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/travel/jamcams/jamcam_popups/040216.html

That's the link to the Chelsea camera.

 

[slip2rock]

Oh good grief!


I'll take my little digi cam in to work tomorrow and show you a few bit's of what i have to deal with.

 

[MildMatt]

Let me guess, you're from some small backward village, that doesn't like 'strangers' and where insest is morally correct?

Of course a street in Chelsea isn't going to be busy at 5am.

And this forum has an image of being full of complete and utter, pointless, meaningless drivel. I can't possibly think why...

 

[1X83Z]

You've got to be a frequenter, MildMatt, to know how light-hearted everything is that goes on here. What forum are you comparing it to?

 

[Giancarlo]

Not the GTF i hope...hah.

 

[Race Idiot]

I think there are more european people on the GTF than here. God knows you damn Americans are full of it

 

[-Fred-]

i've got to go with Matt here... this section of the forums is pretty bad as of lately. full of stupid threads with stupid replies.

It's just not enjoyable anymore, there have been no intelligent discussions lately.

 

[1X83Z]

Not when you look at it as fun and relaxing rather than lacking intelligent discussions. The forum's purpose is so broad, most members just come here to chat. We keep the intelligence to some of the other forums. Well, I don't. I'm not intelligent. Except that brilliant post I made in MAZ earlier.

 

[-Fred-]

a funny, non intelligent thread once in a while is enjoyable, that's for sure, but when there are 10 of them at the same time? it's just ridiculous.

of course, it's hard to have intelligent discussions when the majority of the members are under the age of 16...

 

[1X83Z]

...or British people with Fiestas. Though I must admit the three 'wazzzuuup' threads were fairly immature. At least this one had a purpose.

 

[1X83Z]

Well, well, well. Another 5:14 passed, and still no cars in sight. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
