Default Today's moronist

As I was leaving my house (as a cycling cyclist) to go shopping today, a
person was in the road (carriageway) outside my house taking pictures of
my berberis hedge. Since a car was not nearby to suggest he was some
sort of ne'er do well, I thought nothing of it and went on my way until
a motorist came down the road.

The motorist stopped alongside the photographer to have words. This made
me turn back and although I couldn't hear what the motorist said, I
could hear the reply. The photographer replied with something along the
lines of "but you could see me standing there".

Anyway, after said moronist had slunk off I started a conversation with
this person about said moronist and then about what he had found of
interest at my house.

I always find it remarkable that a person or garden shed in the road is
some sort of problem to a motorist when a steel box abandoned in a
similar position is acceptable or tolerated. I wonder if the motorist
attitude is something to do with the bugs in the air conditioning
getting into the brain and taking over mental function? (Plenty of
anecdotal evidence on this newsgroup.) It's something that many vested
interests would desperately want to keep hushed up.

If nobody else has told you that you are a boring ****, allow me to be the
first.
You are a boring ****.

Perhaps you ought to get checked for toxocara. If you don't like this NG
isn't there a doggist NG you could go to?
