If that was me I'd arm myself or pop him in the face just saying... I think if he saw some kind of weapon it'd be enough to scare him.

We don't generally have access to guns in the UK. And carrying around knives is considered somewhat... illegal.

Nearly cracked this essay. I'm 350 words short but I think I can do it!

No pocket knives? In that case I'd either pop him or report it. I know snitching can make you look bad but hey do what you gotta.
 
Nope. Flick knives (switchblade to you colonials) and gravity knives are banned. Restriction of Offensive Weapons Act 1959.
 
That my mum has finished her chemotherapy, and is on the road to recovery. Only an operation next week and a drug injection every month stands between her and full recovery. :)

That's great! 👍

The feeling after a hard work out at the gym oils my gears... :D
 
I'm really happy for ya, Matty. Life must've sucked while she was going through chemo.
Is it to personal to ask what type she had?

Wish I had a gear oiler but the 'What Grinds Your Gears?' thread is closed. :(

Indeed it was.

It was closed due to incessant "slow chat", so let that be a warning to you all, if you want this thread to live stay on topic and don't fill up 100 + pages with nothing but off topic Gum flappin'.
 
It oils my gears the gear grinding thread was closed, because it really was turning into a slow-chatting thread. I can think of a couple of people who slow-chatted a lot in there.

Also what oils my gears is bacon sandwiches :dopey:
 
1. bacon
2. milk
3. being tax free
4. winning
5. flying(i wish)
6. driving
7. becoming dictator of the world...a nice dictator though, where everyone has free bacon!
8. getting the perfect shot with my camera
9. waking up whenever I want
10. pizza

I agree. It pisses me off so much. :grumpy:

Same, I always used it as a way to vent when I was angry or depressed.

Something that oils my gears is finding out the poster I got on eBay is 26x30 since I never checked the dimensions like an idiot.
 
It's gone. Let it go, not drag complaints into this thread, getting it locked in the process...
 
I think it was dumb that it was closed because it was a good way to discuss with others what was bothering us, but I guess not everyone saw it the way I did.

Anyways, what oils my gears is that up north I was able to make a track in the snow on the lake for my four wheeler. It was so much fun and very good for powerslide practice!
 
I agree with BubbleBelly542 because thats kinda the point of a thread.

What oils my gears is that its 1 more month till F1 season!

Well, there haven't been any available at the supermarkets. And now there are. And why does it seem odd to like apples? It's just like ice cream, we get it only around Christmas and you're really happy to have it.

Lies! :D
Apples are always in stock. Currently we have something like 6 different varieties at work.
 
Ok it looks like the grinds my gears thread for some reason has been ended. Should I make this one into both good and bad stuff. Like you have to post one of each, each time?

There's an explanation there of why. Though I don't agree with it because I feel like it should have been okay to discuas what bothered us. Whatever mods.

Now to not get this clear closed down wrongfully too, what oils my gears is that I had a 3 day weekend and it was awesome.

I haven't seen any. There were some but they weren't exactly something you would choose to eat, they were really terrible.

In a way the Gear Grinding thread oils my gears, it has now forced me to find another place to complain. So no one will know where I complain therefore the people the rants are aimed at can't read it. :D :sly:
