Plenty of reasons! On weekends I like to go for a recreational ride, and I'll usually catch a train out to the farthest station then ride back home- more fun than doubling back. I try not to block the doors though!
How do they get to the train? And then from the train to their destination?
That's not how that works.

I'd say it's pretty rare in general life that if train is your common mode of transport, that you'd need to ride a bike to and from one. Most would just walk (if it's walking distance), or do the park and ride thing, or just drive.
TBH, I wouldn't even consider bringing a bike on a train. I've always been under the assumption that you weren't actually allowed to, along with it just being generally awkward and inconvenient for others.
Are people actually that ******* stupid?
You ride from home to station. Take bike on train, cycle to work. Then do the reverse on the way home. How hard is it to understand?

Yeah, but how many people bother with that sort of awkward wanking around?
People who like cycling.

Obviously don't like it enough to ride the whole way
I get it, I just personally wouldn't bother to get the bike out, if I was going to get on public transport. I'd just do one or the other.
Shhhhh that's too logical.
Cool. That's you. There are other people in the world.Obviously don't like it enough to ride the whole way

I would just like bike riders to follow the same rules as everyone else. If the light is red then that's not an excuse for you to go up on to the footpath and use the pedestrian crossing.
The park is not something for you to go screaming through at top speed while I'm out for a walk.
Don't ride two abreast and finally, my car is not something for you to lean on

How many people do you see on the train with a bike? Theres your answer.
Generally agree except two abreast is actually following the road rules (assuming you are referring to the road and not path)
Cyclists riding 5 abreast would be at least 6m wide. I think your story is nonsense

Showing my age but until recently I hadn't bought a gaming console since school (PS2). I made an impulse buy of an xbox one when Harvey Norman had them on sale on boxing day. So turns out these days you can't just plug and play. You have to sign in through the internet to update the games to start with and then save progress etc. Every time I go to play it Microsoft are down, you can't sign in, rendering it ******* useless. WTF. For a casual gamer who might use it once or twice a week it's not worth all the bullshit.

Shoulda got a PS4.
Incidentally, what's the sweet spot for upgrading do you reckon?
I bought a PS3 about 18 months ago but am a pretty infrequent gamer, so I'm still working through the back catalogue.
Will probably be looking to upgrade at some point when the price has come down and the PS4 catalogue has fleshed out a bit.

If you don't use it much I wouldn't really bother. Most games are still coming out on PS3 and really only have differences in graphics.
But I want to play Uncharted 4.

Haven't heard from this work mob in 4 weeks so it's back to " job club " for me.....
Which means i'm back seeing the love of my life " 19yr-old receptionist "
Even better , gotta go in tomorrow when there's nobody else there so will have to talk to her.......
Was at centrewank today , told the lady i'd asked the receptionist out and whether i should let DEEWR know
She said " No , it'll be bad for you and bad for her......... "
Scorched earth policy is my last resort
