I cycled home on the footpath. Woo, bad-ass.

I challenge you to equal or better that.

I downloaded Mr. Scruffs album last night.

Oh god. 4000 MP3s. I spoke on my phone while the engine was running but the car was stationary (at a level crossing) last Tuesday.

I drove over the speed limit! booyah!

The last law I broke is also the speed limit law, but I am far more of a law-breaker because my tags need renewing on top of that. A regular outlaw, I am.

And tonight I'm *hoping* to break the laws of time, space, causality, etc. in order to get a SHIT TON of work done that was due, um, yesterday. Yeah, and I will accomplish this by playing on the internet!!!

tags?

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:07 (twenty-two years ago)

renewal tags, on my license plates. they've been out of date since um, may, i think. it's totally retarded 'cause i can get a moving violation but i always forget to renew 'em...

yeah, that's the kind of lawbreaker i am these days!

― yetimike (McGonigal), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Is it the same as us having road tax in the UK?

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:26 (twenty-two years ago)

i am not sure -- but i bet it is similar, yes.

― yetimike (McGonigal), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Sorry to labour the point, just didn't know wtf you were talking about!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:33 (twenty-two years ago)

most recent law-breaking: I was at a party I didn't want to be at in west seattle (quite drunk too), and the only way i could think of to get home was walk across the big ol' west seattle bridge into downtown. well, i got about halfway across the bridge and three cop cars pulled me over and 6 cops jumped out and yelled at me. they grabbed me and spread-eagled me on one of the cars and searched me. turns out they thought i was a "jumper," even though I was just trying to get home. they rang up my license and detained me for a while, then grudgingly gave me a ride over to the Safeco field (never been in the back of a cop car before, i treated it like a taxi and the cop was insistent on me shutting up), where they dumped me out of the car and said, "don't do it again!" and i walked home from there. I assume I broke a law, but not in a very exciting way.

you break any laws by the sounds of it. Unless of course you are not allowed to walk around after dark in the states?!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 10:38 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah, apparently. Well, they said, "there's a causeway under the bridge that you can walk on to get across," and I walked over to the side to lean over and see where the causeway was, and a cop grabbed me and pulled me back into the road, being like, "whoah there, calm down!" like i was going to take that opportunity to jump. I said, "how do you expect me to get across on the causeway if you don't let me see where the causeway is?" to which he responded, "stay away from the edge, son. stay away."

Last night in the pub I became totally convinced that I needed one of those bar towels that say "AYINGERBRAU - D PILS - STRONG LAGER" and when I was collecting some pints I started trying to 'subtly' take the towel too but then I realised that i) I am a 30 year old man not an 18 year old in a pub for the first time ii) it was really obvious iii) I would be laughed at forever so I stopped. So no law was broken and my answer is INTERWEB PIRACY like everyone else's. But I still want one of those towels.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:02 (twenty-two years ago)

probably one of those really nutty, archaic laws regarding sodomy in Mississippi.

― Will (will), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Tom, just ask for one of the bar towels. We had loads in the pub I used to work in and if ever somebody asked I would generally give them one. Maybe the towel, too.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes in the cold light of sobriety this is a pretty obvious course of action Nick. Next time maybe.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Tico, you're never too old to steal from a pub! Go forth & steal my boy!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I took a fancy pint glass home with me last night from the pub.

Also, this morning i used an expired travelcard to get on the bus, but the driver decided today was the day he was actually going to look at people's travelcard expiry dates and he found me out, and so I had to take the next bus along with the expired travelcard. I felt so dirty.

― ken c, Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:14 (twenty-two years ago)

PP is otm, I am 30 years old too and steal from my local boozer all the time.

They expect it of me

― Ste (Fuzzy), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh I've nicked the odd pint glass now and then but it's nothing to be proud of, and usually it's for a sound practical reason i.e. there's beers to finish.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh come now Tico, don't be bashful!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:16 (twenty-two years ago)

You should only ever nick glasses in matching pairs.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:27 (twenty-two years ago)

This is not always practical though. Last time I did it, I nicked two San Miguel half-pint tulips from a bar in Bristol. Now one of them has a tiny chip and I feel compelled to go back and nick another. However, the train fare would mean the glass would end up costing about £15.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 11:29 (twenty-two years ago)

In this bitch we obey the laws of thermodynamics, stevem!

(downloading "Enola Gay", for which I blame Tom Ew1ng and would do from the witness box, too!)

Is jaywalking illegal in Britain?

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 13:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Doobie. Last night.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Predictably.

― NEILalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Probably something boring. Um speeding? Or knocking a policeman unconscious with a mallet and then injecting him with heroin? Or jaywalking? One of those.

― NA (Nick A.), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 15:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Speeding. (Even though I've been really really conscious of that since I got my first speeding ticket earlier this year.)

― j.lu (j.lu), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Driving around blasting Freeway without a (California) licence.

Privacy Piracy Acts-uh.

Drove 85 on the freeway the other night, past a cop, with an expired registration.

I am a rebel.

― luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 16 December 2003 21:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I was stopped by a cop yesterday for driving in the bus-lane, I was indicating to the right to get out of it but was still chugging along past everyone. He was cool though, he just said be careful and wished me merry christmas and said other police would have fined me so I should keep my eyes peeled and stop and wait in future if I am trying to get into the other lane.

speeding, i treat solid red lights as flashing red lights all the time
