The Great Dummy Spit thread

30 degree day. Replaced the string on my whipper snipper. Started it and the string broke and jammed inside it. Fixed it again, worked for 5 minutes and did it again. Fixed it. 2 minutes later it ran out of fuel.

Threw it on the ground and then kicked it down the drive with my steel capped boots and snapped the drive shaft. Looked up to see my wife and neighbours on their front lawn laughing at me.

Is that in the running?

Does that count?

And my Missis says that kind of behavior isn't normal ? then there must be at least two of us ...................

Not me this time but my mate Paul ( a very easy going placid guy ) had a DVD player which would periodically stop working, after putting up with it for months he finally snapped he calmly picked it up walked out the front door raised it above his head and smashed it to bits on the path !!!
we knew he had it in him , just took a little tweaking to get it out ..................

Cracked the sh..s Wed, automatic gate controller decided to pack it in. $700 later, the bloke leaves and the other auto gate decides to go out in sympathy!! I walked in and said to the missus "Xmas can go and get .... !" Thats a fair dummy spit I reckon.

It annoys me when you're coming up to the end of a merging lane on the highway and the car overtaking you runs you right to the end of the lane . I reckon this is due to the cruise control being on on the overtaking car , really annoying . Cheers Ross

The ... At the end indicates that there is more to come from you.

And....

I'd like to dummy spit about the motor scooters in Hanoi.

most of them are predictable even though they are lawless. It is the ones that go around a corner against a red light on the wrong side of the road and don't see you because they are texting or watching a video.

It doesn't help that they don't have lights.

Gotta love the traffic in Vietnam. It is amazing that it works with almost no aggro. Exactly the reverse of Australia.

Quite a few Prados here too.
