Neighbours want to close road for party - can I still drive on it?

@omnomnom is just in a bad mood after the footie at the weekend, don't pay him no never mind

Not at all. He was invited and seemingly didnt object so whats the issue? The best course of action is obvious. If its a problem speak to the organisers, if it isnt shut up. This is one of the worst cases of someone posting to tell everyone how wealthy he is yet seemingly doesnt have a back bone.

"higher than average priced vehicle"

Deary me.

Couldn't agree more. It's really extremely simple.

What's that famous saying, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't stop omnonono being a ****"

No, he was away when the discussions went on...

**EDIT** But thinking about it, he's been told this many times and is struggling with it, so I'll just bow out

To be fair the question is a reasonable one if you weren't consulted...talk of higher than average cars/holidays made you sound like a bit of a ****.

i'm back from a holiday just a few days ago. i have a 4 day weekend. i intend, to see friends by going biking, kayaking, having big bbqs, seeing family, and also getting house work done

of course we were invited, it's how my partner knew, i believe from an invitation she found through the door, or from speaking to them idk. not that it's relevant to anyone other than the parent disappointer known as omnonomom

Ok, so it isn't ill will from any party stopping you. That is good news.

I am sure you will be fine. I highly doubt the road will be barricaded.

It's not like that Malcolm in the middle episode where the family came back to find the neighbours always have a big street party every year when they are away or anything is it?

true, but as soon as you were told you did not go into full on Alpha mode and demand that you be allowed to move your higher than average priced car. i think this may be the issue the ocuk alpha posse are struggling with. for future reference, as soon as you are informed of something that may possibly negatively impact you then you're supposed to go, immediately, and confront said issue rather than asking advice. i hope you are better placed now to live your life.

I assume Apex knew he was provoking a humorous reaction by typing about his car lol

Bit confused about being away at the time part when the applications had to be submitted in April?

Great episode and a great show. Shame it doesn't feel like it's aged well or some reason but I struggle to rewatch it

Berry Merjinik · 31 May 2022 at 15:04

The episodes that focus on Hal are still great, the others not so much.

Thanks. I also need to learn the part where I go into someone's thread, and tell them what they have done without knowing if it's true, and tell them that it's obvious and that it must be true as they never denied it so I'm right and they are obviously wrong.

Right but he has been invited....he doesnt know how mind you because speaking to his wife would be an effort. He knows who's organised it so clearly the best option is to well ask them.

Whats "alpha mode" about knocking on someone's door and having a conversation? No one suggesting you have to confront them? Just simply let them know you will need access.

Nah just learn how to communicate with people without a keyboard and you'll get there.
