1. Stuffing rubbish into your bag/pocket because there are no fucking bins on the underground and not enough anywhere else.

x-post these are the sacrifices that had to be made during the troubles. There's a new Jim Sheridan film coming out about a family who fought Ofcom for the right to watch that episode, and to blow up a school while bodhrán music played.

I like the way that to UK-vs-Britain pedants this suggests BBC NI might have put it on especially to get viewers worked up while the mainland was watching the snooker.

Recent airport queue I was in let everyone put their luggage on the conveyor belt while the people running the step-through metal detector announced "ladies first" (ok, probably more because they only had a female clothing-patter at that moment than out of sudden chivalry). Consequence: conveyor belt jams up with rucksacks belonging to men not allowed through yet, women also don't go anywhere because their bags are stuck in the machine.
