I hate cyclists on pavements. Every bit as much as e-scooters on pavements. I don’t wish people get hurt, but I will have zero sympathy for those that do.

I hate cyclists on pavements. Every bit as much as e-scooters on pavements. I don’t wish people get hurt, but I will have zero sympathy for those that do. A few years ago I was walking home from training with a big kit bag on my right side. I walked on the outside of the footpath near the road to allow room for people on the inside. I could see a guy in his twenties on a tiny bike coming up towards me on the inside where he had loads of room. As he got close though he changed to the outside, coming right at me. I kept walking right towards him and it was hilarious seeing his little panicked face as he wrestled with the handlebars to go back to the side of the footpath he was on where there was tons of room. I don't mind cyclists at all. Most I've come across, even when going on paths, don't act the cunt and expect they have right of way etc. For a million good cyclists and drivers, it's a shame it's the cunts live on in our memory forever, tainting our perception.

I've seen a lot of e-scooters and e-bikes on footpaths. The e-bikes are often for food delivery, the scooters not so much.
I don't really care that much overall, but I have noticed multiple occasions where they just do not follow the rules that cars are expected to follow. Like, say, giving way to crossing pedestrians when you're turning left at a green light. Hell, I've seen them literally not stopping at pedestrian crossings, even for a red light.
It's probably a case of me only really noticing the really bad incidents. But all the same, it doesn't feel like a particularly well regulated space at the moment.

That's because it isn't a lemon

It had just used his new leather armchair as a scratching post for 30 mins, it was just getting ahead of the game.

I had no idea that popcorn buckets had been transformed into merchandise these days.
Who goes to the movies and thinks "yeah, I'm happy to pay for even more expensive popcorn as long as it has some gimmicky plastic crap on top."
Apparently there was a Willy Wonka one with the top shaped like his hat and a Barbie one with the top shaped like a pink Cadillac.
I know this sounds like a rant but the nugget of joy is in the latest iteration... the Dune 2 novelty popcorn bucket.

I'm not even sure how much fun using that for popcorn would actually be, I imagine most of them were bought at a cinema and people just asked for a regular cardboard bucket for the popcorn to go into so it doesn't contaminate something they'll try to flog on eBay at some point.

They've actually issued a response.
Probably as a result of all the extra attention the SNL sketch got it.

That's not terrifying at all. I managed to talk the kids out of the Indiana Jones hat one and the Mutant Mayhem turtle head one. Luckily I didn't take them to watch Dune.
I'm not ready to give them The Talk yet!

AMC realising every idea they had for a Deadpool & Wolverine bucket would be too dangerous so have cancelled their plans.

Shouldn't they have set up doors instead of ladders?

Every time you see a Mint Aero this will probably pop into your head, Cassetteboy in fine form.
