Don't take it off for too long, your brains might fall out.

The weirdest thing about your post is that you imagine it to be witty and
clever. You probably even imagine yourself to be witty and clever.

He's a utl lurker who's a bit over excited because he's just gone national
on urd. If I crossposted to nyc.transit too he'd probably require
resuscitation.

I wish :) No , just a normal sized stomach - one that doesn't arrive through
a doorway 10 seconds before the rest of me unlike most cabbies.

Well I'm glad to be of service. The same can't be said about you however -
an object of pity maybe, spouting rubbish and not even realising it.

'Witty and clever' accurately describes Tom's contributions here.

Whereas 'petulant and immature' seems accurately to describe yours.

I've never heard a taxi do that, but minicabs do that habitually despite
having no exemption.

Not round where I live they don't. But then, where I live, we have
mobile phones. Perhaps you live in some part of ruralistan which has no
functioning network.

I'm guessing there isn't one. Or they're exempt. Otherwise how can a black
cab stop halfway across a signalled junction in the middle of the road, on
a
corner, on double red lines in central london, blocking the traffic behind
to
pick up a passenger and some plods in a van nearby do absolutely bugger
all?
Because it is a taxi and that is what taxis do?

He does have a point. Stopping half way across a signalled junction is
particularly inconsiderate of the driver, and it was also singularly
stupid of the passenger to be standing in the middle of a junction to
hail a cab, instead of standing at the side of one of the roads leading
to the junction.

Mind you, I also suspect that he has either made the story up entirely
or at least rather embellished it just so he can spew some ignorant hate.

Was the experience traumatic for you?
Were you all upset?
Did you **** in your pants?
Hot flush?
Get angry?
Wished you lived 250 miles north of the great ******** of London?
Wished you did not live in the great ******** of the south?

Which one?

You sure it was only one?

No, sorry. I'd come up with something rather more imaginative if I was
to do that.

Criticising cabbies is a liberal lefty hate crime now is it? Oh the irony! :)
