Wotcha got against Llamas Doug?

And Kendall, just fold it over a couple of times and it will approximate normal two-ply stuff.

My pet peeves are...

Traffic lights - Nineteenth century technology to try to control twentyfirst century traffic.

Stop signs - They did away with them in England and now use yeild signs instead.

And especailly four way stop signs where your knowledge of your right of way depends upon a sign on another street that you can't see.

Then there's those stupid 'Merge into the Fast Lane' signs. Perhaps you are in the slow lane for a good reason, say your car won't go much faster or perhaps you don't feel confident driving any faster. Well sod you, GET INTO THE FAST LANE ANYWAY.

there's loads more but that's enough for now.
