Is it just me or do bus drivers lack the driving skills of their forefathers?

I had one this morning drive into oncoming traffic as he needed to go wide 4 lanes to turn left. I have been seeing them lacking the turning skills bus drivers need a fair bit more recently too.

A month or 2 back we booked a cruise for next year. It takes in round 3 which made sense for the Port supporting family, round 1 is Easter which is always a Crows home game, round 2 is Port at home, then Crows home again in round 3. Clockwork.

Then the AFL release the fixture and Port are playing at home over Easter but they are also playing at home in round 3. Further to this, it just so happens they are playing Essendon in round 3.

Great. Not only did we not play in Adelaide last season and only once the year before, but I miss out on one of the chances to see them here this season.

Damn you AFL, you and your fixturing shits me.

Walking in a busy shopping centre and having to stop walking or walk around campaigners who just stop and have a chat right in the middle of a through fare.

Makes me want to tear my ******* teeth out.

Same goes for slow walkers.
I hate how people slow down dramatically when checking their phone.

Losing a trifecta because Prince of Peasants decides to win the cup.
I'd prefer that to what happened to me in 2011.

I emailed a mate with the tri I was planning on putting on involving about 7 horses all up (2 for the win, 4 for 2nd, 7 for 3rd). Around 1:30 or so the track was upgraded and I changed one selection, removing Lucas Cranach from a 3rd placing and putting in Modun. I ended up putting on $20 at about 25% or so.

Modun finished 23rd, Lucas Cranach 3rd.

That decision cost me $1000 :(

People not only complaining about no Pattinson in the test squad but accusing the selectors of having "heads up their asses" because of it. No. Shut up. The selectors are actually doing something right for once in their lifetimes but it doesn't mean he shouldn't be in the test side.

Playing in the ECA and having to go to Alphington for a match*.

*I'd never heard of Alphington but apparently it's north of Heidelberg Road which makes me think it's probably not eastern suburbs.
