On a different note... I miss innocent (not mean spirited) sarcasm.
You can't even hint at humour without being lectured to, anymore.

'Child' is a far more impactful word and will make most of us feel a sort of horror that a little boy had a gun and used it. 'Young man' is more in keeping with the US gun attitude of nothing to see here move along.I would also add his choice of words (in the moment) is in keeping with a police chiefs demeanor and training. When speaking (especially in public announcements) they tend to be more reserved and formal.

I want to rant about cyclists these dark days that put on a hi viz then completely cover it over with a backpack Why can't they make hi viz backpacks for cyclists and country road walkers? Or get a larger vest and put it on over your bag.

FYI brave browser does have the little blue arrow.
Just tested with above version.

I despise filling out forms in general and this is a form I think is completely unnecessary and a waste of paper, as it doesn't affect anything, I'm just being told I need to fill is out simply for the sake of it.
Half the questions don't make any sense and are phrased in a way that makes you want to put your fist through a wall (imagine Bernard Black doing his taxes). This was actually supposed to have been sent to me at the start of January, but An Post bounced it back to them, because the person who wants me to fill it out thought my name and street address was all that was needed, town and county be damned - I'd love to see them try to figure out how to answer some of these questions since they can't even address an envelope...
The most infuriating thing of all though is that it has to be filled out in Black Pen - well guess what fuckwad, I don't have any black pens, so I'm not filling out your stupid fucking redundant form.
When they call in a few weeks saying they never got it back, I'll just pretend I sent it off in the post, and they'll probably send me out another one and we'll do the whole song and dance again and again until one of us eventually dies.
Really needed to just get that off of my chest...
