Is it just me or are people super inconsiderate at the moment? Had people blowing smoke (vape or otherwise) whilst walking in front of me, people stopping to chat in tiny sections of supermarkets, people pushing to the front of the line, talking loudly on the phone (or even worse on speaker!), microwaving eggs in the office, singing in the office and acting like a session on the loo is year 9 drama club audition. Violence doesn't solve anything but maybe we should make a gentle slap over the back of the head socially acceptable for when people are being a rude fuck.

Covid definitely upped the main character syndrome. Five years and a lot of people are still unwilling to let that go

tbf it could be pretty fucked before covid. Dylan Moran had a couple of idiot black books fangirls treating it like their own personal performance and chaser had a pair of dipshits who legit stood up mid performance and started singing "imagine there's no chaser"
