i crossed the road without looking today
 

i had a close shave with a taxi.


just incase any of you care.

I crossed the road after looking both ways once, and a female cop shouted at me because I was jaywalking. What the fuck is jaywalking? How is it a crime?

was that because you can't turn left? :D

(i saw zoolander this past weekend, ha)

good to know you didn't break your kneecaps or worse, though.

ps-- all these accidents happen in the early spring when people get horny. lots of broken arms, legs; pay attention and you'll see...

I took a nasty fall today on a brick road today. Its icy in these parts.

It was mighty embarrassing and painful.

Poor you! Here, take a sip of this tea and I hope you feel better.

Thanks.

The funny part was that my friend steady put money in the parking meter while her friend lay awkwardly on the pavement.

you werent trying to get hit by a taxi were you?

i almost got hit by a car driven by my mum once. On a day when i didn't bother to look both ways, i really couln't be bothered that day, my mum always tells me about road safety and this one day, the one day i choose not to look both ways, just to step out into the road and she just happens to be the woman driving the car that alost hit me. I heard about that for months.

you naughty boy

I bet you were checking your appearance in a shop window and weren't concentrating on the traffic. Is that right?

i never imagined someone would be too lazy to look when they cross the road. i hope you learned your lesson young lady.

me?

You should be more careful or there won't be a next time.

I was thinking od screamingskull's post.I assume that Toilet & Bowels is mature enough to remember to look before crossing.

i don't think its about being mature, i was just daydreaming, it was a bad day, i was somewhere else. I'm far better at crossing roads than my parents, thats just because i have to do it alot everyday to get anywhere, my parents however drive everywhere.

why? are you trying to prove something to yourself or are you just depressed?

with headphones on and hood up i may as well be deaf.

You nearly got killed? On the road? In London? By a taxi driver? What do you want a FUCKING MEDAL?

be careful please

let the assholes with shit music tastes die. we have to keep the sonic lifers alive and kicking, to save humanity

nice :)

Before crossing the street, James Blonde suggests you to moutza at every moving car.

i'll try, maybe you should moutza all the estos riding their mules.

You're lucky I wasn't that taxi driver...

The forces that rule the cosmos don't allow harm to befall people as pretty as T&B.

Quit your whining.

and lucky for london in general i'd say, enough women get raped by taxi drivers already thanks.

Get it while the gettin's good, I say.

Something tells me you're spending Valentines day alone.

does your smugness mean you're treating yourself to a trip to the red light district or something?

And that would differ from his typical day how?

Not quite. My lover is getting spoilt tonight.
Yours?

Well, for one the red light district peep shows are now officially considered "theatre performances", meaning you only have to pay 6 percent VAT instead of the normal 19 percent tax added on luxury goods!

London looks perfect for James Blonde, strip clubs and rugged taxi drivers.

I crossed the road almost blind yesterday. I was jumping off the top of a playground and went to tuck into a roll. But I had landed to vertically so I landed about 10 feet below onto my shoulder and smashed the side of my head on the ground. Gave myself a concussion, lost balance, couldn't hear, and my vision was going. I walked home, almost entirely blind.

Questions for T&B:
1. What color was the Taxi?
2. Was it a ford? Damn those Ford's...
3. Was the taxi driver an immigrant? Most are.
4. Did it have shiny rims?
5. Was it an old taxi or a new taxi, and if it was an old taxi, would it have hit you if you had been less attentive at the happening?
6. Maybe the driver was just a racist, and it was bound for you not to look
7. What were you looking at?
8. Was it interesting?

An old guy hit me when I was on my bike one time, and it's because he went too far over the stop line on a red and right into the crosswalk. I told him to fuck off and that people with artharitis aren't allowed to drive. Not really though. But I did give him the finger.

I have a friend who's permanantly physically handicapped too because his head was run over by a van.

1. black
2. no
3. i doubt it
4. probably
5. new
6. probably not the case
7. i was running for the bus
8. no

Once I was almost ran over by a fucking train while listening to washing machine (too high volume in earplugs). I think the train driver did not brake coz he tought i knew the train was coming (it was an unprotected crossing), but i understood it was behind me only when i felt the ground shaking.
scary. Brrrr.

i was almost hit by a train once. Two of my friends were infront of me, train behind me. They weren't running fast enough though for me to get out of the way to I bailed jumping to the side.

It happens if you are a girl and take a dodgy minicab at night.

in west yorkshire all the cab drivers have to carry cctv as they are subject to racial harrasment and recently lots have been attacked.
