Paying $65 for me and my 2 young girls to watch Paddington 2 with 2 small popcorns and 2 small drinks. WTF!

Was the movie worth the $65?

I must admit I got a lump in the throat at the end when Paddington nearly drowns and then his Aunty rocks up.

Good to see you're letting your air down in the holidays.

I just pneu this conversation would devolve into puns...

Deflating news. Hope you get pumped for golf though MT.

People that don't walk up/down esculators. For christ's sake do these people ever wonder why the esculator looks like moving stairs?
If you don't want to move take a lift!

Probably my no 1 hate: People who don't know how to "Keep Left Unless Overtaking" in 80km/hr + rds where its clearly marked.

Even worse people who drive at 85kph on the SE Freeway in the 100 zone and about 95 in the 110 zone and sit in the middle lane rather than the left one presumably in case they get stuck behind a truck in the left - AND those who pass them about 5kph faster and clog up the right lane...

I've taken to using the almost empty left lane ready to weave across when I spot a truck well ahead.

No, the escalators are moving so you don’t have to walk - otherwise they’d be stairs.

Geezus these days I have to take a lift because my zimmer frame doesn't fit on an esculator.

People who do 50 in a 60 zone, irrespective of which lane they're in. I see it all the time when I drive down Main North Road between Gepps Cross and the start of the parklands. If you're gonna go slow, sure, drive in the left hand lane, but if you are capable of driving at 50 then 60 is not a quantum leap of risk exposure and driving skill. If you're not feeling comfortable driving at 60, then you shouldn't have a license.

Perfect compromise - everyone who wants to stand still just stands on the left and leaves the right side for people to walk past.

anyone who has been to japan will know we have a lot to learn with regards to how to act in a crowd

That reminds me of another shitsworthy thing - two people standing abreast on an escalator blocking everyyone else's right to pass. A real pain in the arse if you're in a hurry.

Correct Benny seen this escalator etiquette in other parts of Asia too. We are western Neanderthals in that regard.

Almost two decades ago. Just taken my first ever ride on the London tube. Was riding the escalator up out of my destination station when I heard a loud "tut" behind me. Apparently I was standing on the walking side. I switched sides rapidly and apologized to the miserable cow behind me, who trudged past me with no further recognition of my existence. Nevermind that we were the only 2 people on the escalator at the time, and she could simply have walked around.

If you were meant to walk up and down escalators, they'd be called stairs...
being a bit precious here lads.

[Wedgie]

I still can't believe something I posted 12 years ago is getting so much discussion now!
A slow couple of days lads? Must be a Test match on!

[DOC]

Just imagine if it was a footy topic. Rucci would have a two page exclusive analysis on it pointing out how its our fault and to be careful what we wish for.

Yep, Rucci gives them to me.

Just an observation on how other cultures deal with this albeit minor issue (first world problems) not sure that qualifies as being precious.
