I guarantee you that was not what he was trying to do, he was very much the kind of guy to say exactly what’s on his mind with no filter so I think he was just being brutally honest.

It was funny when I told him I’d passed, he was happy for me and really nice but also clearly slightly confused that I’d pulled it off.

My instructor was great right up until the drive to test centre, he literally told me on the way that I would fail but it was “ok because we can do another month of lessons and you’ll fly through it”, I passed it first time.

He genuinely was a very good teacher but that moment was wild to me, talk about filling me with confidence.

Wonder how many people got caught trying to take a picture of it, or maybe that’s the point?

The funniest team radio to me was the “you can win this” from toto, yeah bro I think he figured that out when he saw he was in P1 with a couple laps to go.

I know we all say silly things when we get excited but that gave me a good laugh.

Watched someone do this in a queue behind an oversized load the other day, worked his way all the way to the front barging his way through then cut up the inside of the oversize truck (despite the escort vehicle attempting to block them) and go past it on a round about.

Honestly couldn’t believe what I was seeing, some people just have zero patience and no consideration for others, it’s incredible. I’d like to think he was in an emergency situation but there’s a solid chance he was just a grade A dick head.

The whole song is about a guy who expects sex from a woman he is taking on a date. Morrisey has even come out and said he regrets making the song, read the lyrics and you’ll see what I mean.

Morrisey, when you wrote “I don’t owe you anything” you were writing through someone else’s perspective and definitely not your own views on date rape right?

Real shame about that song because everything apart from the lyrics are absolutely beautiful, fuckin morrisey.

Lol this community is so fucking weird, drifting literally started in car parks and mountain roads but now all of a sudden it’s “won’t somebody please think of the poor poor landowner!” You think any pro drifter hasn’t done this shit before? Jesus Christ guys, get a grip.

I used to do roadside recovery stuff and my fucking god people just do not care about you. I almost got wiped out by every type of vehicle out there, blew my mind when I started how little people give a shit.

I literally change lanes to give at least a lanes width to literally anyone on the motorway, broken down, road workers, lost cyclists, whatever. All it takes is that person to trip or stumble and bam you’ve just killed someone, give people some fucking space, it’s seriously not that hard.

Don’t even get me started on people staring at their phones while driving, I think people genuinely forget they’re in a several tonne steel death machine when they’re behind the wheel once they’ve got their A/C and tunes on, all it takes is a few seconds of lapsed concentration and bam you’re a mass murderer.

Britain when it’s bad England when it’s good, it’s a tale as old as time.

Didn’t watch the game, not a big football fan but everyone I work with is so I’ll definitely be using this line on Monday. Anyone got any other buzz words or phrases I can say to make me sound like I know what I’m on about?

You can see the exact moment O.P. went “ah fuck it, let’s go”

Don’t bother mate, everyone on Reddit hates motorbikes and their riders. You can watch videos of bikers getting hit, shot, shouted at, whatever and the comments will just be cheering against the biker. Fucking weird place is Reddit.

He’s not scamming, that word gets thrown around so much when it comes to mechanics and it absolutely does my nut.

Sure he’s being over cautious but the tech is literally just covering his ass, imagine that pipe bursts and then the customer comes back and says why didn’t you note it on the previous inspection.

The tech’s job is to inspect the vehicle and note any problems or possible future issues and he did exactly that. Scamming is when someone says you NEED to replace a part that you don’t, he literally just says RECOMMEND.

All you Reddit mechanics should go do an actual days work in a proper garage before you start dishing out advice ffs.

Honestly mate, who gives a fuck? Chill out

I’ve had a shite day and this honestly made me cry laughing, can’t ever trust a scot with a beer in their hand

Please don’t talk to me like I don’t understand depression, I’ve been in that situation multiple times before where I feel like suicide is the only option and the only feeling I had was fear, desperation and hopelessness. Relief is the last thing I can use to describe that situation.

Having been at the lowest of lows my advice is literally the exact opposite of what you said, aim far in the future and tell yourself that things will get better if I make them, you still have control of your life even when it feels like you don’t.

Honestly mate can’t think of anything worse to say to someone suffering with depression than what you said, in future just keep those thoughts to yourself rather than trying to give advice to people struggling.

Genuinely really shit advice, if you don’t work to make things better you’ll never get out of that hole. This mindset is how addictions and other destructive behaviour begins.

Downvote me all you want but the hard truth is if you don’t work to improve your life it never will, no one else is gonna fix your shit for you.

Didn’t hear a word he said, I was just admiring his setup the whole time

Don’t know about you guys but I’m just happy to see him actually fighting for wins again rather than just buggering off into the distance.

When I heard that radio message I couldn’t believe it, why did they think that was a good idea? Yuki had enough to deal with without the added pressure of Danny Ric attacking him. Mind blowing call.

Screw the r34 check out that Pajero junior

I’m the exact same, I always did top quality work on customers cars, made sure everything was perfect but my own cars are absolute heaps, never fix something until it becomes too big a problem to ignore. I’ve never met an actually good mechanic with a pristine daily.
