The BBC televising the Edinburgh tattoo but changing camera every time they're just about to show my brother!
You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.

The life that I have
Is all that I have
And the life that I have
Is yours
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.

fat people saying "Its glandular" when its handular usually and then they have the audacity to claim benefits because they're disabled. Your knees wouldn't have buckled if you weren't so blooming obese!*
Chavs! They say for every rat eating cheese, there's a chav downing a bottle of white lightning.
*I do understand if it's a proper disability though, you can tell usually though.

Nat dfficlut raely as lnog as the frist ard lsat letres air crorect, acordnig to a sutdy smoe yares ago.
Because the eye reads sentences and meaning (syntax) as opposed to individual words and the spelling of individual words (semantics).
You know how it is yourself when you're reading a novel and based on context you guess the end of the sentence or at least the next 3 or 4 words even before you've turned the page.
Or when you're reading something where you expect a certain word, but instead it is something with a similar spelling yet different meaning
For example this does not say salt & paper,
it says salt & paper.

Sorry, I mean uh, life experienced This post sounds right up my street 
1. People who drive at 40 mph regardless of the fact the speed limit is 60, or indeed 30
2. People who talk on mobiles whilst driving. Always good at traffic lights where i've been known to refuse to move at the green light. Normally get a nice hand signal, I signal back they are on their phone and they promptly go red and put it down
3. People who park in spaces they shouldn't.
4. People who stand to close to me in a queue
5. People who park over 2 or more spaces
6. Being in the passenger seat with hubby driving and him moaning at me because i shouted that he almost hit something he claims he did actually see! hmmmm. Maybe his reflexes are just slowing 'cos he is getting old
7. Things always going wrong when dh is away but never when he is home!
8. People who walk slowly and get in my way.
9. With ER on the trolley in the middle of the supermarket isles one.
10. Expecting my mum to be able to direct me whilst driving, with very clear written out directions. Knowing full well it never happens i ALWAYS have to try it anyway.
Really i could of made that list much shorter by putting people who don't drive properly (imo anyway) lol.
