    You're all driving on the wrong side of the road, and yet you complain about such trivialities?

    Speaking of which, this must have been an interesting country to drive in prior to 1967. Before then, we also drove on the God-forsaken left side, even though nearly every car had left-hand drive. Oh, and many roads had no speed limits.

    Must have been fun.

    To be fair "hook turns" is one of the stupidest inventions ever...

    Really.
    How can this not work?
    It seems perfectly reasonable....

    I can't lie!
    Who thought of this crap?

    Hookturns can be a bitch, I'll admit. Try doing 'em on two wheels on a windy day in peak hour traffic. *shudders* I never go down that road now.

    If Vorak tells you to get your arse over here, you'd better do it man. I've seen what he does to people who disobey him.

    Wow. That's sufficiently exceedingly retarded. As if your idea to drive on the wrong side of the road wasn't disturbing enough.*


    *You know, there's the right side, and the wrong side. :)

    Perfection has been reached not when people see what happens to those who disobey, but when those who disobey are never seen again.

    Now that's quotable. I think that's disturbingly, V for Vendetta-style government, amazing.

    Having not read this thread for a page, I came in here expecting more talk about Chrome.

    Instead I find talk about Hookturns.

    I love this place/you guys.

    Oh, and I'm a big fan of Chrome. I've a small quarrel or two with it, but it's ok.

    From what I've seen, it's Telcontar that does the yelling.

    Keep the lazy bastards in line!

    Also, I'm using google chrome, and I like it. My sole objection, so far, is the lack of the ability to open hotmail.

    Idk, really. A tad worrying, but it's supposed to be safer than FF/IE/Safari, if memory serves.
