"When people remove the post and I bothered to open it.. 
Or you type out a well considered reply, press send, and the thread has been removed
Sorry, I spelt something wrong oops"

No, not the post/comment removed. Sometimes the mods remove a whole thread if it is breaking the rules or getting out of hand. You press 'send' and your carefully crafted response doesn't appear because the whole thread has been removed |

"Grammar and poor use of language...
It's 'could have' not 'could of' FFS."
^ this
Also people who say they are never going to do x,y or z again, then do it. 
I have no idea why it bothers me so much but it does. |

Interesting. I do tend to go past on the inside maintaining a steady speed but often wonder what happen if the police saw you do it? Mind you they are supposed to give a ticket to the middle laner |

This is my impression, too. Sometimes lanes go at different speeds so you must be allowed to go past someone. |

Thats my understanding. If its a clear road and they are sat in the middle lane you are ok to pass on the inside as long as you dont have to break the speed limit to do so. |

Joking aside, no-one breeds the rescue dogs they take and greyhounds and whippets are sadly common among them. Both benefit from a coat in cold weather or when older. |

Thanks, and I agree totally about bad breeding practices. Now back to cats playing the Ukeleke |

Smart Motorways! 
If someone breaks down and the nearest "refuge" is miles away, it is dangerous. Getting rid of a hard shoulder is the most ridiculous idea ever. If you really want to expand the road, buy the land and add an extra lane. |

 . I put my little terrier in a coat if it’s raining and she needs a walk - she has very thin coat of hair and doesn’t like the rain so if I let her out in the garden for a pee she’ll run back in |

It's only a minor irritation, but my pet peeve is poor spelling on chalk-boards outside shops, usually restaurants. The other day I saw "spagetty bolonays" and "lasanya". Everybody has a smart phone for spellcheck, and I appreciate some people are dyslexic - but here's a tip for restaurant owners. If your member of staff is dyslexic, don't get them to write the bloody menu board.  |

People who message to me to say I’ve no right to be so ‘demanding’ on my profile. Personally I don’t think I'm demanding at all 
They’ve also usually got no verifications themselves or just one or two from years ago. |

That reminds me. I saw a very odd post on a facebook post the other day. The general gist of it was someone in a local community group was asking about bin collections in the area, but the strange thing was, they started their post with :
"Don't judge me, but..."
And I thought to myself...what a very curious thing to say. I've been puzzling over it and it makes no sense.
It's not the first time I've seen the phrase come up in common parlance either.
It does make me intrigued.
Everything we say, think or do is judged, and that is completely fine. We have laws and social contracts. We have performance reviews at work. We undergo continuous assessment from the cradle to the grave. It's a natural part of life.
Whether the judgement is justified or not is another matter entirely of course. George Blake is a prime example of criminal judgement overreach.
Perhaps "Assessing" might be a better term. Judgement is a highly loaded term and I feel it's only really valid in certain contexts.
Thank you for the reminder about the term. It's something I've been meaning to discuss on here for ages and kept forgetting.
