Trivago - if jurgen Klopp is just back from holiday… why is he checking into a £130 a night hotel?

 

That's where his dentist stays.

Dunno if it's just cause I'm getting old but everyone being a podcaster or influencer or wannabe of some kind but all acting the same and spouting the same pish one liners and * chat. Total NPC behaviour.
Pavement hoggers which ive mentioned before.
This is all tied together by daft running club types who take up a whole pavement/path/park etc but wouldn't dream of dropping out of formation even tho there's about 50 of them in 10 banks of 5 and one of me. Found one of their pages on instagram and just been sitting getting raging scrolling through their posts seeing them talking up the "vibes" and it being "lit" and bringing the smoke etc with daft house music in the background.
They all go for their run then gather outside a coffee shop or whatever and take up the full street taking selfies and being generally smug arseholes, have some awareness of other people and your surroundings.

 

It really boils my *. I had been using a running route where I had to pass a group of them doing this outside a coffee shop and run on the road to get by everytime. Found their instagram and there's multiple pics of them taking big group pics (squad goals.) Surely to * you'd think at least one of them would advise that it's a pavement for everyone and maybe leave some space for other people.
Entitled arseholes.
I really hope this resonates with someone else here because I worry I'm becoming a bit "old man yells at cloud."

 

You should only run if the polis are chasing you.

If * wanted us to go fast he would have given us wheels instead of feet.

 

Watching bbc news just now and they done the sports section…. All about the English leagues for today and tomorrow, then they went onto the wummins league and finished with some tennis *……
No mention of Scottish fitba whatsoever
That’s why I don’t pay my tv licence
*, get it up ye

 

I finish work at the same time one of these running clubs start and they're a pain in the * if they're running towards you. As you say, they just run towards everyone expecting them to move out their way while taking up the full path. I try to get away sharp and power walk home that day to avoid them.

 

I've been there a few times. Have you heard of 'bargers'?
Each time I've got the train in London, someone has full force shoulder barged either me or someone close to me. I'm wondering if its a common thing and whether you see people getting battered because of it?

 

Very common

 

I love running, but I hate people.

 

This seems to be pretty standard but I visibly show annoyance or say something when it happens to me. I try everything not to barge or brush against someone but nobody else seems to give a *. It's really annoying and jarring.

 

The second time I was with my girlfriend. I wasn't the victim but a guy in a suit walking next to me got barged quite hard by a guy in high vis. I said ''what a * head'' kind of loud and fella in the suit looked instantly relieved as if i'd just sorted everything out by saying that.

 

While wars are raging in Gazza and Ukraine the new engerland manager's first squad selection actually made the headlines in the main news. Says it all

 

I've been living in London since 2018 and never once experienced or witnessed this.

 

Lived here my whole life and really have no clue what they are on about. Sometimes people get a bit close to you when the tube is heaving but that's it.

 

Aye you won't get any personal space when it's busy but never had anyone barge into me.

 

Maybe you are quite a big guy compared to me? It was like a herd of buffalo all squeezed in. I got to see London though, the bits that were built by Romans, it was really interesting.

 

Sounds like having been a Londoner brings some street knowledge unto your walk. Maybe you can dodge and weave better, quicker to step/traverse the familiar terrain. I was a fish out of water. I even saw this young kid in the train stood on the floor bit that moves, pure dangerous I thought.

 

I hate running but absolutely love walking. I can walk 30 odd mild in a day pretty easily.
But I couldn't run even 1 mile I don't think. It is really not appealing to me at all
