@MN5 Oh. And before you ask, due to Covid I cannot be your best man. Sorry, try @Snowy he’s always looking to meet new

You see? This is why I keep coming back to the Fern. Some considered debate, a bit of sharp wit and the chance to improve myself intellectually.

Check the title of the thread. See what I did there?

Fucking this!!! Perfect timing, I raised this with the wife (mine, not Catos) just last night. Now that I have a meme to support me, she can't possibly dispute that its real
Just sent this to Mrs Boo.
Am awaiting reaction.

When the haka starts and the missus asks "Oh, is there rugby on?"

@Snowy said in Grumpy Old Man:
@pakman Brilliant.
I call my wife "Could you just". As soon as I sit down that is what she says, with some annoying, not urgent, chore attached to the end when the rugby is about to start.
“If you’re not doing anything, could you...?”

8:45 kick off. So you turn on then to avoid all the shit .... and get to see welcome country (for a game of rugby league) two anthems, a haka and then more music dither ....
Even grumpier when they lose.

Cyclists
Not only for their crimes on the road and the fact they get in the way constantly.....it’s the chubby middle aged men who think they look even vaguely presentable in Lycra. Sitting in cafes ordering their lattes and croissants after a ride and wondering why their guts still bulge at the seams of said Lycra.
Just fuck off, all of you.

Mountain bikers on off-road tracks who think because they are using pedal power they have more rights than off-road motorbike and horse riders. And that's before the bloody lycra.
Consensus between horse riders and motorbike riders (who generally get along famously) is they're a bunch of fluffybunnies who can fuck right off.

Don't get me started on those cnuts. We have dedicated bike lanes everywhere near me. Shit, they have paths all the way into the city that joggers can't use. Yet the Lance Armstrong swallowed a pig looking tossers still insist on clogging up suburban streets. And what's with them all wearing the TdF kit? I understand if it's an actual competitive race, but if you're a weekend fatso ending a session with a flat white and half a bakery do you really need to dress up like you're a member of a professional team. Fark, that would be like having a game of touch and everyone dressing up in full replica Allblacks kit.

Top quality rant. Brilliantly worded.
All I can add is the old adage of dress for the body you want, not the one you have. The overwhelming majority of people don’t look good in Lycra. Get t shirts and baggy shorts you embarrassing looking cocks.
It shits me beyond belief how much was spent on the Island Bay cycle way WHICH NO ONE USES !
Couldn’t they have put that money towards another pub or a gym ?
