.......I don't know whether to despair or find this humourous.
A couple of weeks ago I visited my sister for a few days. She lives in a reasonably pleasant seaside town with what's probably best described as a significant elderly population. Hence all these fu**ing mobility scooters. These things are capable of travelling at 8-10 mph & are perfectly legal to use on the pavement/sidewalk as well as the highway. However, most seem to be driven/ridden by people with an obesity problem rather than a mobility one & when poor breeding stock/low intellect & general incompetence are factored in the consequences for anyone unfortunate enough to encounter one are dire. However, this pales into insignificance compared with this idiot......

Yes, this has touched a raw nerve with me tonight & epitomises how I feel about modern society & the cretinous, thoughtless people who inhabit our planet. Sadly, these exact people now appear to be governing us & in charge of our major business & financial institutions.
I rest my case.
