We have a generic 'inspirational sunset' picture on the wall in the meeting room at work. Once in a while I turn it upside down, unless you look you don't consciously notice, but it does bother people.

Slowing down and leaving an even bigger gap between me and the car in front when someone pointlessly tailgates me.

Not my fault, it's the approved method according to the bloke at my speed awareness course... 🙂

By constantly eating huge amounts of food during the day and not having an ounce of fat on my body.

Like others above, my cycling to and from work, been beeped, shouted at, had a lit fag butt chucked at me, swerved at on purpose and a taxi driver who had pulled out of a side road threaten to punch me for daring to be on the road.

My little bit of retribution though is that there is a hill with a speed camera at the bottom, which if i get down in the drops, means i am doing about 30mph, knowing full well that a lot of car drivers simply cannot wait behind me despite the fact that i am doing the speed limit, they have to get past a cyclist and through the camera..

I'm cool and polite.However ,I sometimes get overly "class war" for my missus' liking. And the towels,she hates the towels. & It never fails to get a mention when I leave a cupboard door open.

I'm pretty impatient, If I want to do something then I want to do it NOW!
Anybody ever watched Raymond (oh the shame) remember the episode where he waits in the car for his wife, then when she still doesn't leave the house on time he makes the monumental decision to drive off. Been sooooo close to that on many occasion, but I know it no matter how sweet it would feel for five minutes I'd pay for it every single day after. Still ... maybe one day.

Unfortunately the speed camera on a hill like this in Northampton is switched off.

Just today I was going down the A48(M) through the 50mph section

Just about the least observed speed limit I know of!

Yes!!!, this, there is a hill on my commute that's a 40mph limited. By top speed down it is generally 45mph ish, this means I can either overtakes the cars or they feel obliged to overtake me. Either is great.

At work to wind up a colleague who was always either exactly on time or 5 minutes late for shift change over:
Hide all the teaspoons
Empty the kettle just before he arrived
Empty the water jug as well

And whilst he was raving about no water for his first cuppa we'd cheerfully walk out the door going "it's all ****ed, no time for a proper handover as your late AGAIN"

This one is a bit childish, at work when my boss is talking I like to add the word 'naked' at the end of each sentence.

So things like, 'could you send me your worksheet for the week...........naked

You get the idea, drives him nuts 😉
