We all know the type, fat messes who eat so much they get too fat to work and it ends up being more profitable for them to actually sponge off the honest, tax paying people of this country rather than lose weight and get a job.
Wife swap (awful show that it is) had a great example of this, when a sponger's wife swapped with a middle class, hard working mum, and the hard working mum realised when she looked at the money coming in in benefits etc that despite the fact she and her husband were both working FULL time, they had less coming in that Mr Slob, who was recieving a few "dubious" benefits as well as his basic dole.
She broke down crying, as well she might, and was utterly aghast that someone who gave NOTHING to the country supporting him was actually given not just a free ride, but the mother of all free rides in that he was actually earning around 32K a year FOR BEING A LAZY FAT BEAST.
Absolutely flippin unbelievable how bad this country is that we can reward the lazy, punish the earnest, reward the rich and punish the poor. I hate the government, I hate this country, and I especially hate fat lazy gits who do nothing for anyone but expect everything from everyone.

Idiot Claims...
I'll admit I may have touched on this before, but I suspect it is now worthy of its own little chapter, so here goes...
I am all in favour of people who deserve compensation getting compensation, but people who are injured via pure stupidity, or issue needless, fraudulent claims to try n get money for nothing, are absolutely ridiculous, and should be issued with the costs of their stupid court cases instead, that would harden them. All these "No win, No fee" cases would be fantasticly reduced if it was "Win or Lose, we'll take you for half of it or 10K, whichever is more!" wouldn't they?
I cannot stand the governments stance on this, allowing all these things to take up court time and, in all likelihood, simply line Lawyers, Barristers and Solicitors (No, I don't know the difference) pockets.
Filthy money grabbers the lot of them.

Gossip...
To be totally honest, this has to be the thing which annoys me beyond all measure. People who talk about other people, especially, but not always, behind their backs have to be replacing stupid people as the people I hate the most, I despise them in fact. I was going to try and inject some humour into this but it makes me too angry so I'm not going to bother.
It's like when people ask you about things, not because of a genuine interest in your welfare or state of mind but because they think you'll give them some sort of juicy little piece of common interest rubbish, which you can then tell others in hushed tones. It's often quite astonishing when you tell someone a secret as to how quickly it can become common knowledge, isn't it? "Don't tell anyone, but such and such happened to such and such the other day, don't say I told you", how annoying that sort of faux-honesty is. "Keep this between us, okay?" is supposed to mean DON'T TELL ANYONE! But most people these days just assume it means if you're going to tell someone, make sure it can't be traced back to you.
I really don't like people who ask specifically for Gossip when they would endear themselves to me a whole lot more by asking questions such as how are you instead. "Any goss?" isn't quite so personal is it?
Anyway, I have decided that I will be telling nothing to anyone for the foreseeable future, because as far as I can tell, I am the only person in the whole world who knows what it means to be told something in confidence and to keep it that way.
P.S. if you are a gossip, don't talk to me. I hate you.

Speeding!
Guys (and girls) who do EXCESSIVE speeds all the time need locking up. That new t.v. spot they have is, well, a little too graphic, but all in all, I agree. I don't mind guys doing 80 down the motorway, but 60 in a 30 is a definate no-brainer. Even if good drivers are speeding, the un-expected can always occur, and when it does, the carnage is always going to be worse the faster the car is travelling at!
There is no excuse for driving stupidly fast on country roads, no excuse viable anyway. If I was a peeler I'd throw the book at anyone doing more than 10mph over any speed limit, I really would.
Anyway, I'm away to work.

Letigious Society!
Is it me or are we following America's lead when it comes to introducing legalities and frivalous claims into absolutely everything? You need only read my Americans post to see how I rate them as a civilisation, so I can't understand why we feel the need to make rods for our own backs and legislate for absolutely any number of daft things.
For example, that bint in America who got burnt by her coffee then sued McDonalds for a few MILLION dollars, could no one have just stood up and said "I'm sorry Mrs Dipshit, but you are actually just stupid and as such we are going to banish you to Antarctica where your dumbass antics will not (hopefully) endanger anyone else you idiot", and if not why not?
Years ago she would have accepted she was a bit slow and got on with her life, but no, not in claim culture America, she told her Lawyer and hey presto! A few million SPONGED dollars to live her life in stupid retirement. It was like giving a thug a million quid not to rob anyone else, just ridiculous. And the guy who put his Motor-Home into Cruise Control and then went in the back to make coffee, what a complete tool he was. Again, no-one told him he was a retard, so he expected a full on Auto-Pilot to kick in, and when he crashed because it didn't, who was to blame? He was dammit, him. But not in America! Oh no, the manufacturer should have told him there was yet to be a full-auto-pilot function and that cruise control would not actually control anything but the speed of his journey. What fools they were!
And now we are adopting this approach in the UK as well, love it! Now we can actually make our society even more dysfunctional with a few claims here and there for stupidity's sake. For example, a Kid falls over at a youth club. Big deal 10 or even 5 years ago, but now? Oh boy, you better have the best child-protection policy in the world or that kid who you MADE play football and who you MADE fall over his own feet will take you to the cleaners and there will be no-one to stand in his way. Disgusting.
Again, the point here is clear. We can either follow Americanised rules of civilisation, or we can invent our own where the clever, honest, hard-working people are rewarded, and the silly, dishonest, scrounging people are re-housed, in America, where they belong.
Gordon Brown needs to get Britain back on the rails, because we are already so far gone that soon there'll be no track to return to, and then we'll be a little colony of silly Americans...

Idiots in localised Government!
I was listening to the Nolan show this morning and it came on that these plonkers in the belfast city council could see no reason to prosecute a man who had two dangerous dogs in the belief that the treadmill he had was to exercise them when it was raining, not to train them for fighting. Funny then that they also saw no illegal goings on with the dog-fighting manuals, steroids and needles, the scars on both dogs and the poor surroundings they were kept in isn't it?
The dogs will be handed back at 3 o'clock today as there is no case to answer apparently. Well it will make sorry reading if either of said dangerous dogs is allowed to hurt a child or even kill one, and it will be totally down to some tools in local government being blind to the blindingly obvious facts in this case. Yet another example of something completely straightforward being made insanely complicated by beaurocratic idiots who feel they need extra work to justify their equally idiotic salaries.
Our local MP's and MLA's are actually paid for doing nothing most of the time, it's a flippin disgrace! How many people can positively say that their own MLA has enriched their lives in any way, shape or form? I can't, but I would still hate to see Sinn Fein as the biggest party, at least my idiots are unionist idiots, it would be a lot worse if they were nationalist idiots, of which there are plenty to choose from.
Dumbass officials make dumbass decisions, so I guess we're all partly to blame for this...
