The Seething thread

Sure once you picked up your nice post it probably put things in perspective

anon61956325 · February 1, 2018, 9:51pm

Is there any cameras/cctv on buildings near by that can help your case?

flattythehurdler · February 1, 2018, 9:51pm

You learned that lesson well.

Fagan_ODowd · February 1, 2018, 9:54pm

There might be, but I’m not going to let the injustice consume me. I’m getting on with my life. I’ve a lot of living to do. I’m not letting Garda Cuntybags ruin my remaining days.

Probably the best approach mate - and you’re the bigger man for it. Some lads on here would feel the need to see this out to the end simply because they said they would on the internet … Garda cuntyballs will get his someday, of that you can be assured.

Opportunity missed Fagan. Ideal time to bring the cunt to court. A guard’s word in court is as reliable as the Luas.

Never had you down as a cunt mate

Fagan_ODowd:

I am utterly fucking seething here. At the injustice of it. A squad car pulled me over there and informed me I had gone through a red light. 80 euros 3 points thanks very much. I told him he must have been mistaken. I had gone through an orange and he must have got confused by the cyclist who had come through after me who he had also booked.

First he said that going through an orange was an offense as well but I said not where it was not safe to do so and it was a busy junction. Anyway he said you went through a red so it’s all the same. I fumed at the unfairness at picking on ordinary people going about their daily lives. I told him he was just filling quotas and he should be proud.

He told me that people like me were the reason 175 people were killed on the road last year. I told him to stop being a drama queen and not to be stupid, there was no prospect of me killing anyone and that in any event the figure was 158. He asked to see my license. Are you still living at that address. I said what business is it of yours. People often move he said. Well I didn’t.

He gave me the spiel about paying the ticket and I told him to spare me that bull I’d see him in court.

We parted with me roaring at him to tell all the boys back at the station what a big man he was.

I steadfastly prevented myself from using any profanity or mentioning Maurice McCabe.

Not quite how the Garda reports the matter…
" This vehicle registration has been identified on multiple occasions prowling around crime scenes in the North inner city.
When a vigilant traffic corps member recognised the number breaking a red light today he felt he was on to something connected to ongoing investigations and took the appropriate action.
The stop and caution merely threw up a middle aged curmudgeon who turned out to be just a little too lippy to escape with a gentle rebuke."

Middle aged?

TreatyStones · February 3, 2018, 7:29am

It’s relative

Two incidents have me seething this afternoon.
I took a stroll around town at lunch and decided to pop into a daybreak shop for a coffee from the self service machine and the utter cunt that had been served a roll of some description from the deli section decided to have a cappuccino or something that cunts have with a roll.
The dumb bastard left his roll down in front of the fridge blocking my access to the mini fridge as I thought to myself I’d have the milk ready to pour as my coffee brewed, his cappuccino, or whatever the fuck it was took an age to fill. He then proceeded to fumble @Horsebox style to affix the lid to the cup of whatever he had filled, but the cunt never stood back from the machine to let the next customer access to it.
Ignorant bastard. I hope he burnt his big thick roaster mouth with the hot beverage.

anon61956325 · February 8, 2018, 3:59pm

There’s only one thick ignorant roaster in that story and it wasn’t the guy with the roll and cappuccino.

Julio_Geordio · February 8, 2018, 4:04pm

Do people actually buy coffee from those self service things? I thought they were just ornamental.

Brimmer_Bradley · February 8, 2018, 4:06pm

Well I got a nice freshly brewed coffee from one today. Do you not understand how they work ? Is that your issue ?

anon61956325 · February 8, 2018, 4:07pm

The peasantry would, yes.

Julio_Geordio · February 8, 2018, 4:08pm

Freshly brewed from some plastic pod, and about 14 different flavours of coffee and hot chocolate going through the same spout.

Brimmer_Bradley · February 8, 2018, 4:10pm

Where do the beans go so ? The ones you see in the actual machine in the glass case within the machine ?
I’m sure the shop assistant would help you out the next day.

backinatracksuit · February 8, 2018, 4:11pm

Mate, some of those machines are turning over a million euro a year in Ireland
