Fail of the Day

People should learn that it's not always a good idea to drive like a twunt.

Stupid spikey haired goon tried to overtake the battlewagon in an Aygo this morning, didn't realise that 2 litres of tuned turbo diesel accelerates quite fast and they're not all driven by old farts.

This left him about 10 yards behind me on the white lining, shouting and swearing because I'm doing 60, can't be bothered braking, and he doesn't want to go any faster. What a knobber.

Even funnier is that he follows me to work, (I'm thinking oooh I'm going to be road raged by a 5ft reject from a hair wax commercial) pulls into the yard behind me, goes to reception in front of me asking to see one of my senior minions for an interview we're holding at 9.00am.

EPIC FAIL.

    so he was overtaking you, and you went faster?







    If so you are the twunt knob chops :roll:

    No, there's a section of road on the way in that goes from 60 to 30 for a school then back to 60. I just accelerated to 60. I'm overtaken all the time, doesn't bother me.

    If deciding to travel at the speed limit makes me a prat then I gues you're right. I'd better make sure all the people I know know that they are as well.

    i think what he is saying is that he slowed down from the 60 zone to 30 and then accelerated out of the 30 zone back to 60, like normal driving, but the dude behind himi didnt want to slow down for the 30 limit and so tried overtaking in a stupid place. therefore being a tw@

    I spend most of my commute on motorways amd regularly get idiots like that. Heavy traffic, I'm leaving a reasonable gap to the car in front, idiot pulls out behind, overtakes me, squeezes into the gap and brakes.
    Pity in your case there wasn't an 18 wheeler coming the other way. Aygo hood ornnament.

    What is it with Diesel drivers always bragging about the ability of their motor?

    Not quite, slowed down to 30 and then back up to 60. Captain Aygo thought I'd just sit at 30 but I left him behind. Instead of thinking 'ok I can't get round him' and pulling back in he sat on the white lines acting like a complete tool. There's quite a places in Suffolk where the limit's 30mph, even on the A12 but I still do 30, and you still get knobbers overtaking you.

    If I stopped them overtaking by speeding up I'd just end up driving like them. I need my car for my job, insurance is enough as it is and I already spend £300+ per month on fuel. Maybe I should just buy an Audi and travel to work 6 inches away from the bumper of the car in front.

    its like small "man" syndrome, you have to prove your "Capability" as a man by shouting about it of buying a massive car or the most expensive bike on the planet

    person 1: I'm not so sure on them to be honest,
    My Boss: i dont know though, girls with short hair are fit
    person 1: how short though?
    My Boss: you know short short, like a young boys hair
    person 1: You like girls that look like young boys??!!
    My boss: Yeah thats it, er no, no not like that
    **SILENCE** sweeps the office, my boys swivels on his chairs and returns to his screen FAIL!

    Diesels are great - in trucks or tanks.

    But unless you routinely drive four or five hours a day on motorways, these days there's no significant cost-saving over a similarly-sized petrol engine, plus you sound like a tank.

    Which is nice.
    If you drive a tank.

    If you want to go fast, get reasonable fuel economy and sound like you're driving a car (not a tank), get something with a decent petrol engine.

    I'll add to the fail of the day:

    Some bloke is trying to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge. The bridge isn't that high... At most he'll break his leg or just sink waste deep in the mud :lol:

    if you had a 335d you would have had enough torque to rip the road up and shower him with stones, killing him and his idiotic little car.

    if you had a 335d your life would be complete.
