We have a thread that deals with the little things that cause us rage. How about a ranty thread that causes us to wish those to caused it to swing from lamp posts?


Rant #1


So, we are sat outside the EDT this afternoon. My better half smokes - me, no. I don't give a shit.


She lights up. A small plume of smoke emerges, and disipates in seconds on the wind. 20 feet away, we have the faux coughs from a couple, hand waving and , I shit you not, covering the face of their offspring. We are obviously causing genocide.


Not three feet away from the very same pram is an idleing 185 bus with its exhaust pumping cardom monoxide at the perfect pram height for direct inhalation. It sat there for at least 2 minutes.


So.


I proposed an experiment, what with me being an Qualified Engineeer and all. I said to give me her offspring in a sealed garage where the better half smoked consistently for 20 minutes, and then we run a bus for 20 minutes.


Then we can find out which one kills first.


She was very abusive.

    • Is it possible for someone to change the heading, because it is not clear that this "fatality" has not just happened. I'm not sure that the OP still posts on here. Admin?
    • A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/
    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
