Ok, to start with the bad - I was walking home from the supermarket this afternoon with some shopping, and someone spat at me from a moving car! I mean a proper wadded up spitball of paper. It hit me right in the cheek, and I didn't really register what had happened at first - I thought a nut had fallen on me from a tree or something. But when I put my hand to my cheek I realised what it was, and I heard the guy laughing. I looked round but they had already driven down the road. I'd assume it was a teenager or something but my gf said they looked like a grown man. How disgusting! I mean, is that what we are doing now, going round acting like 5 year olds? It really upset me. I'm just glad it hit me not her

So let's forget about that with a good thing. You might have seen this already but it's good fun - this is English comedians French & Saunders reading out the result when a Hungarian newspaper tried to interview Madonna a good few years ago, with Hungarian questions being translated into English, and her answers being translated from English to Hungarian, and then the whole Hungarian article being translated back into English...



(BTW, I don't want to mock Hungarians with this, I'm sure every single Hungarian on the planet speaks more English than I speak Hungarian!! But the translation issues are pretty great...)

((BugsyMalone)) - I'm sorry this happened to you too. This is so disrespectful, disgusting and completely mean. I don't understand how anyone could be so rude. Funny link BTW.

Yeah, Bugs, there really are some scummy people around and about. Sorry that you had to run into one! I guess it's better than having one yank your cellphone or wallet, though. That would really piss me off! As for Hungarians, they say they're smarter than other people because their language is one of the toughest in the world!

Yeah it is what the world is coming to, Ive had someone drive past and throw an egg at me, and Ive been squirted with a water pistol. The only reason they do it in their car is because they are to coward to stick around.
Thanks for this!
