So I walk out to my scoot last night and some a-hole decided to use it as a shelf. He's standing in the parking lot talking with someone, and just set his stuff down on my seat. As I'm approaching my scoot, I see all this stuff; padfolio, couple folders and a huge coffee cup. I wanted so badly to just walk up and do how they do in the movies and just send everything flying. Like the mad guy who's got a messy desk and in one swoop sends everything to the floor. The guy saw me already in my helmet, jacket and gloves so he assumed it was mine and said sorry, grabbed his stuff and walked away.

Least he had the good grace to apologise and move his stuff - inconsiderate but not overly rude. The situation would have been far worse if he'd been an ass about it, cue flying stuff!

Couple of years ago I came back to the car park to find a seriously heavy piece of shit sitting on the bonnet (I repeat, bonnet) of my very cherished and very old BMW. He didn't want to move his fat arse from there, so I moved it for him.

If he had his car close by I would have set my helmet on the hood whilst I adjusted my riding boots.

why anyone in their right mind would put a bonnet like that on their car is beyond me.

But apparently an entire country is daft!

well at least the guy said sorry. not much of a big deal. just follow him around and prop stuff up on his ride occasionally. then when he walks up pick up your "ish" and say sorry. Nerd emoticon
