Hello, driving on drugs feels better when they're prescription.
All I know, the world looks beautiful, the world looks so damn beautiful.
I feel fantastic, and I never felt as good as how I do right now,
except for maybe when I think about I felt that day,
when I felt the way that I do right now, right now.
I feel fantastic, and I never felt as good as how I do right now,
except for maybe when I think about I felt that day when I felt that.
Hello.
Hello!
Welcome to You are Being Unreaching.
A podcast about people being unreasonable on the internet.
Or not, as the case may be.
Maybe they're being reasonable.
They probably aren't.
If they were, they wouldn't make the cut.
We're not going to talk about people being reasonable.
We're recording this the weekend of the week that it snowed,
and people on the internet were wildly unreasonable about that.
It was incredible.
I don't think that we've got many snow threads to cover,
but if you're bored, go and have a look at Mum's Net
and the way people react to snow.
I saw a lot of Twitter users reacting to the closure of all.
the Scottish rail lines, pretty unreasonably.
Oh.
Is my train running?
No, you replied to a tweet saying all Scottish rail trains are off.
My favourite thing that's happened with the snow is when people in Lewisham just went,
ah, fuck this, and got off the train, started walking down the tracks, as if that was going to make anything better.
Good for them. Speed round?
Let's go.
Am I being unreasonable to find fake meat a bit weird?
Yes.
Am I being unreasonable? What is the most ridiculous argument you've ever had?
Not really, a yes, no question. Yes.
Am I being unreasonable? Very focals.
Yes.
Am I being unreasonable to start another spooky thread?
No, more spooky threads.
Am I being unreasonable to think they should put us up?
Yes.
Am I being unreasonable?
Snowmen vandalism?
No.
Am I being unreasonable to ask for a cup of tea?
No.
I need to say no to that
just to cover my back for the future
I think we all do
I wonder what the snowman vandalism was
I'll never know
I can imagine moving the nose to quite a cheeky place
That's very rude, what about the children
Oh yeah
Tut tut, let's do a full length thread
Am I being unreasonable
Colleague left me stranded in the snow
Work alongside a colleague
I currently have no car and have been one of
the only few people to get into work with all this bad snow.
Today, we got the go-ahead to go home,
and she has dropped me off to the closest train station.
There is one train showing up as running in the opposite direction,
no staff here at the station, and no one available to collect me.
Are I being unreasonable to think she could have driven the 20 minutes to drop me home?
She has a four-by-four.
Seems like a sequel to last week question about the woman whose car failed her motie.
could be the same woman
Maybe it is
My car fail it's MOT
On Snow Week
Ah
Geez
When the snow comes
It really does descend into a mad-max style
Dystopia
It does, isn't it?
Yeah
The people with the 4x4s
become kings and queens
Of this new landscape
Do they though
Philosopher Kings
I think it really depends on where you live
Yeah
I don't know a 4x4
Would have helped you massively in London
No
A lot of people I know who weren't driving last week
It wasn't that they worried about their cars
Not being able to make it through
It was they worried about their own sanity
I think this poster needs to worry about that sanity
And getting caught up in blizzards
And it's scaring them
Yeah I think this person needs to worry about their sanity as well
Because if they've been dropped at a train station
Which is 20 minutes drive from their house
Yes
That's not an unreasonable war
It depends quite a lot on where that station is in relation to anything else.
Yeah, I suppose if you're walking along A-roads and whatnot, you don't want to do that.
No. Or if it's just like through the woods, you don't want to do that.
I went to the woods when it snowed.
Yeah, voluntarily, not because your colleague abandoned you there.
Voluntarily during the day, because I was on strike. Solidarity.
Solidarity.
The question, however, is, am I being unreasonable to think she could have driven 20 minutes to drop her home?
did she ask
it doesn't say that she asked
yeah
I don't see why this woman would just voluntarily do it
I imagine they're just dropping hints in the car
well looks like it's going to be a long wait for the train
it's only 20 minutes to my house
did this woman check if there were any trains
because I work within walking distance of where we live
but when it's snowing and the pavements I see
I don't want to walk if I don't have to
so before I left my office every day
this week, I checked if there were any trains running.
And one time there weren't, and that was fine.
I just got on with it. But I did check
before going to the station.
It doesn't sound like this woman checked. It sounds like she was
just... Yeah, this
other person, this driver's not psychic.
No. You need to ask.
You need to be up front with people.
And you need to check the trains yourself. I don't
see how it's possibly the colleague's fault.
I don't think that she stranded her in the
snow. I think she gave her a lift of a train
station in good faith.
Here we're out of the train station. I'm just going to go
I check the boards. Can you wait here for me? Yeah, sure.
Whereas realistically, probably what happened was she said,
okay, well, here we're at the train station. She said, oh, great, thanks, bye.
And no one checked the trains or not.
Yeah, and then she realised she'd be sitting for an hour and started blaming her colleague.
Yeah, and I don't really see what it has to do with the colleague at all.
The colleague didn't make it snow, the colleague didn't cancel the train.
No, this isn't a plot by some snow.
wizard colleague also 20 minutes 20 minutes drive on a normal day it's 20 minutes
drive 20 minutes drive in the snow could easily be an hour's drive that's true and
the colleague has to do the return journey unless this woman was then going to say
to the colleague come and live with me now that you're here and it's snowing
so then she would have had to have done two hours of driving for no reason
am I being unreasonable colleague didn't offer to put me up in her home maybe
that's the am I being unreasonable they should have put us up from the speed
round what are people on the thread saying let's see
I don't understand why someone would dump a colleague at a train station in the snow, expecting colleague to wait for a train that will likely be cancelled.
I don't think she dumped her.
It's not like she shouldn't even slow the car down.
She just opened the door and pushed her.
Bye-bye.
Okay, see you tomorrow, bye.
It's not her responsibility to get you home.
Nope.
I would have done it for you if I was her.
It's bloody freezing out there.
People have died.
Someone asking, are you still at the train station?
I haven't checked the timestamps.
I don't know if that was a reasonable question or of days have elapsed between that.
Someone else saying you expect her to put you in a dangerous situation to help you out.
The OPE doesn't appear to come back at any point, which I think is not on, really.
Died in the snow.
Oh no, here we go.
She's back.
Oh.
I was working with this colleague today.
She used her car for work today.
So when we've been together all day in her car, while on our last visit, she said,
right, I'll drop you to the station then.
Train apps are completely different to real situation.
it seems it hadn't been updated at all.
Home now after an awful journey.
I'm also pregnant.
If you think that your pregnancy is relevant,
you should have mentioned it in the opening.
But also, she said she'll drop you to the train station.
The train up said there were trains.
So be mad at the train up.
Don't be mad at the colleague.
The thing to do is you say the colleague's line.
Right, I'll drop you to the station then.
Would you be able to drop me home?
It's only 20 minutes from the station.
No
See at that point
That's a different situation
That's worth noting in the
The forum post
But we don't know
That's what happened at all
The colleague said I'll drop me to the station
The app said there were trains
Then there weren't any trains
You got out of the car
If you don't ask the colleague to
Wait while you check that there are trains
That's really
She's not going to sit there and wait for you
To get on a train
She's not your mum
Like see you off
Run down the platform
waving to you like in a film
Yeah, if this is your mum, that bears noting in the phone post as well.
It does.
Someone has said that the O.P.'s partner could have organised a taxi from their end.
Why the O.P. couldn't have organised a taxi? If she can get on mum's net, she can call a taxi?
Why are we assuming the O.P. has a partner? I never mentioned.
I don't know.
If you called me from work and said, can you get me a taxi? I'd do it, but I'd also question when you got back, why didn't you do it yourself?
Well, exactly.
when you got back not during the stressful situation
I don't know your reasoning
arguably if I phoned you and said can you get me a taxi
it might be that I couldn't connect to the internet
and I didn't have a taxi number and I couldn't get Uber working
I could see that being a thing
but this woman's on Mumsnet
so one way or another
she's obviously in contact with the outside world
she's not just alone in this train station cut off from civilisation
maybe she posted it to Mumsnet
and one of those Mumsnet boxes they put a train station
oh yeah maybe yeah let's move on this person's very unreasonable they are they're completely unreasonable
and the the two responses are it's not her fault and people are dying there's no middle ground
okay let's do another one are I being unreasonable to think that doing yoga in a public place
is just attention seeking several times this year I've seen people crack out a mat in the middle of a
public place and start doing yoga when I say public place I'm not talking
about a park or a beach, but an airport, bus station and waiting room. It seems to be a trend on
Instagram too. The culprit usually kissed in something very revealing. I love yoga and it's
great for being a portable exercise but am I being unreasonable in thinking that doing it in a place
where you stand out is just showing off and a bit wanky? It didn't really mean public spaces then
because a lot of yoga's done in a public space like a church hall or a community centre or a
as she mentions. She means these liminal spaces, the airports and the bus stations.
The liminal spaces. That's what they're called. Liminal yoga.
Liminal space between two places. Okay. That's her problem.
I want to know what sort of waiting room it is.
Train in the snow. I was picturing doctors.
Oh.
At which point, yeah, that is unreasonable.
Oh, yeah. Like a dentist waiting room is very different. Like, how do you know you'd be able to finish your poses before they come and do a proper.
a cool down.
Yeah, what if your whole face were a sunny A and they're like, get in?
We're going to do a root canal.
Yeah, you'll go outfits are very revealing.
Are they, though?
I went to yoga yesterday.
It's like you're wearing nothing at all.
Nothing at all.
Nothing at all.
Ned Flanders.
Yeah.
I went to yoga yesterday and I wore two pairs of socks, some leggings,
a t-shirt, a long-sleeve top, a sweatshirt.
And you just do yoga at the bus stop.
I was indoors, it wasn't in a public space
I wasn't showing off, look how many layers I can wear
and do yoga simultaneously. Basically though, she just means
she does say herself, doing it in a place where you stand out is just showing off.
It's like virtue signalling for how
well and zen and exercise-driven you are.
Yeah, that seems to you what she's saying. Do you agree?
No, it's nonsense. Who cares?
Just, if you don't like what you happen to be looking at at the moment, turn your head, I'll close your eyes.
Am I being unreasonable to think that people should stop closing their eyes while I do yoga?
Yeah, I don't really understand what the problem is.
Someone here on the thread has said, people do it everywhere in India, and the OPs come back and said,
fine, with the exception of countries where it's the cultural norm.
Well, it can become the cultural norm here. Cultural norms change.
Oh, yeah, exactly.
Like, you know, I wouldn't be impressed if someone was doing some yoga in the supermarket in front of something I wanted to reach.
But equally, I'm not impressed when people just leave their trolley in front of something I want to reach while they potter along the aisle.
So, one of those things is perfectly normal behaviour that just irritates me, and the other one isn't yet, but it could be.
Yeah, we should be doing yoga everywhere at all times to achieve a state of mindfulness and wellness.
Wow, okay, you've really taken it to the other extreme.
I have yoga all times.
This trend for standing desks.
Now, yoga desks.
Okay, so you think that the hippies being unreasonable?
Yeah, absolutely.
If you don't like something, don't look at it.
I suppose it's different if a man's got his tackle out in a public space.
Yeah.
Then it's not just a matter of not looking at it.
That's just a victim blaming.
Yeah.
But I don't think you can be a victim of a yoga sighting.
No.
No, these are different things.
Absolutely.
Yeah, there's a difference here.
I also don't have the time to pinpoint it.
I flat out don't believe that this person has been witnessing lots of people
in revealing outfits doing yoga over the last week.
I really don't.
No, not over the last week, not at a bus stop.
No.
It's been too chilly for that.
Far too chilly.
Let's have a little look at what people have said on the thread.
Someone said, I bet they live for avocados too.
And then they've posted an emoji of an avocado.
So that's clearly a hateful boomer who's decided that only a feckless youth would do
yoga or eat well. Avocados. Avocados in this luxury millennial lifestyle. Avacados as a signifier.
Someone has said in a waiting room I'm intrigued what sort of waiting room, so I'm glad it's not just me.
Good.
Someone else. I can't tell you how ridiculous I would look doing yoga in a public place.
Okay.
That's irrelevant. It's not about you, is it?
Yeah. I mean, I would look ridiculous doing yoga in a public place because I don't know how to do yoga.
The only yoga I've done is on Wii Fitness
and that's not the same
and that was years ago
and I was more flexible
but you could get flexible again
if you started doing yoga all the time
I don't have a wee fit now
but you could just do it like in the lift at Russell Square
where am I going to plug in my wee fit
that's a good point
let's have one last thing from the thread on this
I did yoga on a plane in 1977
it wouldn't have occurred to me that I was
attention seeking or anyone would think that I was
I'd much rather have no, much rather that no one had noticed.
But as I was a devoted yoga practitioner and teacher on a long flight to India, it seemed the best thing to do.
Now, I don't agree with the OP, but I do agree with the OP about this person
who chooses to do yoga while on a flight to India on a plane in 1977.
The amount of detail in this story is very...
Look how good I am.
This person's very much changed my mind about the whole thing.
We don't care that she was a devoted yoga practitioner and teacher.
I'd have more sympathy if she was like, look, it was a really long flight and I needed to stretch and I was feeling uncomfortable.
I find flying stressful, so I did yoga.
But she's like, obviously it's different when I do yoga because I'm a devoted practitioner and teacher and I was going to India.
Miss, we're trying to get the trolley down the aisle.
Can you please stop doing a downward dog?
She doesn't say if what she was wearing was revealing.
That's an important point.
So maybe what we've learned from this is
maybe the OPs being unreasonable, maybe they're not,
it really depends on who she's seen and the context.
Yeah, it really does depend if the person doing the yoga is a twat or not.
I can't believe we've had to come to mum's neck
to decide that sometimes it's appropriate to do yoga and sometimes it isn't.
With that.
Ironing out these moral issues one at a time.
let's move on give us a few years and we'll have done them all okay this is a really really good one am i being unreasonable d h embarrassed by my sensitivity
i get very moved by certain types of art and music so much so that i occasionally cry last year we went to the louvre and i ended up silently weeping at a number of artworks
when we got out of the gallery d h admitted that he finds it all a bit over the top and unnecessary as if i do it on purpose
Anyway, we've just got back from Rome.
I became a little overwhelmed in the Coliseum
when I thought about the violence and death
that had taken place there.
D.H. said I was the only one in the entire place crying
and he was fed up with it.
I explained that I don't do it on purpose.
It just gets to me.
We went to the Sistine Chapel the day after
and I ended up screaming at the Michelangelo.
A number of tourists tried to console me,
but D.H. just walked off, muttering for fuck's sake.
I felt so stupid.
When we got out, D.H. had a massive rant at me about how I spoil everything for him,
and he often wishes he was with someone normal who could visit places without making a scene.
He also declared that he no longer enjoys travelling with me.
I'm gutted because travel is the main thing we do together.
Am I being unreasonable to think I can't change who I am, or should I?
Why? Why are you so beautiful?
How did he produce it?
You woke up both the cats.
One of them has already gone back to sleep. Don't worry about them.
Wow.
How is travel the main thing they do together?
What do they do on their off times?
I don't know.
If they're world travellers, you know, interrailing around Europe, that's one thing.
but if they have a home, what do they do there?
I don't know, just sit silently.
I was on the O.P.'s side to some extent.
Should we go through it? And you can tell me the point where she lost you?
Yeah. So...
Last year they went to the Louvre and she weaked silently at a number of artworks.
Yeah.
At that point, her husband says it's all a bit over the top.
Well, I mean, you're generally more emotionally available than I am.
That's true.
And you weep when Brienne of Taft talks to any other woman character on Game of Thrones.
I just love Brienne of Taft.
And I like Beane of Taft, but I don't weep.
Fine.
Hang on, what are you saying that you're on her husband's side?
No, no, no, not at all.
I'm saying people have different emotional reactions to things and that's okay.
Yeah.
I wouldn't say to you that it's over the top and unnecessary, like the DH does.
Good.
So I'm on her side.
at this point. Okay. They've just got back from Rome. She was overwhelmed at the Coliseum
and she thought about the violence and death that had taken place. Again, she was the only one in
the entire place crying and her husband was fed up. Again, that's fine. I was emotionally overwhelmed
when we went to Shindler's factory in Krakow and I cried there thinking about the violence
and death around the Holocaust. And yeah, actually there, I didn't cry. I just became very
withdraw. Because we all react to things differently.
Exactly. We had an emotional reaction to the space.
They went to the Sistine Chapel.
Now, and she ended up screaming.
A number of tourists had to console her.
It's the word screaming.
I'm picturing a blood-curdling scream from Hammer Horror.
Yeah. Balling or weeping or crying, I think we'll all
work. Balling's a little extreme, but screaming is too much. I can't think of any time where it's
appropriate to scream. You remember when I saw that Rothko that I liked? I didn't scream. As I said,
I like this Rothko. She's odd. A lot of people don't care for Rothko. I don't care for Rothko,
but I liked that roughco. And I screamed. Blue murder.
Yeah, when we saw Voizek with John Boyega, I had a very strong emotional reaction to that.
Yeah, they had to ask you to leave.
Screaming the playstown.
John Boyega, you're a very good actor.
Didn't actually scream, didn't shout anything at John Boyega.
No.
Didn't want to ruin it.
Also, it never occurred to me to scream.
It wasn't like I had to suppress a scream.
Yeah.
So this is the point at which I am no longer sympathising with the OPE, because screaming in the middle
of the Sistine Chapel, which is a place of worship, is not really appropriate emotional
reaction. You know, it's not for me to say what is an appropriate emotional reaction,
but this isn't. Can we also reflect on the fact that a number of tourists tried to console
her? Tried in vain. How many is a number of tourists? Is it just one nice couple who came
over and said are you okay or people flocking from across the chapel to offer tissues or smelling
salts Pope Francis came down gave her a quick blessing I can see your screen and I see the
word screaming coming up a lot in people's comments should we just run through a few of the
because it's the screaming where she loses people if she ended her post before that last
paragraph someone has said surely you can help screaming
Yeah, it's the screaming.
Yeah.
It's the screaming.
To be honest, I'd be really embarrassed by someone screaming.
Yeah, it's the screaming.
Oh my God, I couldn't go anywhere with you.
You screamed?
Blimey, I would be embarrassed.
If my D-8 just started screaming at a painting or something,
why, how did you scream?
I can understand crying at musicals or the ballet.
Screaming is a new one, though.
Yeah, if I'd have screamed during Hamilton,
and when we went to see that, people would not have been happy.
No, no, you can't go around screaming at things.
You can't go around screaming at anything, really.
People don't like it.
Ah, Elizabeth Scarler just loves him so much.
Again, that isn't quite screaming, though.
It's not piercing enough.
It's not blood-curdling.
Okay, so now people have started saying maybe it's Stenthal syndrome,
which is also known as Florence Syndrome.
Florence Syndrome, isn't it?
And Paris Syndrome is a thing that the Japanese have,
because Paris is really kind of built up aesthetically in their culture.
I got Florence Syndrome, you remember that?
Yeah.
I cried on that last night there because I didn't want to go home.
Because it was just so beautiful.
Yeah, I loved Florence.
The guidebook for Florence warned of Florence Syndrome
and suggested helpfully that maybe if you felt like you were coming down with a bit of Florence syndrome,
have a gelato.
Maybe the O.P. should have had a gelato.
I just had that sandwich.
Yeah.
It was a good sandwich, though.
It was a great sandwich.
Bear with me one moment.
I'm just going to see what else people on the thread are saying.
All right, I'll look this out.
I also cry and scream.
I also cry and scream at my children's violin recitals.
You're poor children.
Ah!
I just...
Timmy!
Imagine if your mother turned up to your violin recital and screamed.
I have a sensitive DD.
When I brought her to the Salvador Dali Museum in Spain when she was five,
she gave the finger to every painting and said,
fuck you, that was embarrassing.
Wow, maybe art really does bring out these different reactions in people.
I suppose that's a measure of the success of the art.
Surely a five-year-old didn't really go around the Salvador Dali Museum going,
fuck you, to every painting.
Yeah, and then someone said,
oh, well, your husband shouldn't be shouting at you if you're not doing it on purpose.
Again, crying, I think it would be unreasonable for him to shout.
do.
Yeah.
Screaming.
It's a screaming.
It is a screaming.
Am I being unreasonable to think I can't change who I am or should I?
Someone's responded, yes, sorry, it's over the top.
Someone else has said, tell us more stuff.
Reveal yourself.
Am I being unreasonable to demand everyone have gravy on their breakfast?
Just experienced a Toby Carverie breakfast for the first time.
they have gravy and Yorkshire puddings for breakfast.
I feel like crying with happiness, it was so delicious.
D.H. said I was eating like it was my first meal after coming out of the jungle.
Wow.
Right, this is fine. She shared a nice experience. I'm happy for her,
but am I being unreasonable to demand everyone should have gravy on their breakfast?
Yeah, that's a bit extreme. I think a Yorkshire pudding and gravy for breakfast is fine
because that's functionally the same as a pancake.
We have discussed this before.
Yeah, we've talked about it in the pub with our friends the other day.
Yeah.
Hello friends.
Hello.
Yeah, are you actually putting it's the same as a pancake in sort of composition?
Yeah, but you can't mind.
And gravy is just like mushed up sausages.
So it's just like sausages and pancakes.
Oh, mashed up sausage.
What's wrong with you?
Oh, good God.
No.
No.
No.
It's wrong to demand everyone have gravy for breakfast
Then let's see what the thread says
Actually can we just go back and reflect on the fact that this one was going to cry about her
Breakfast at the Toby Carvery
I feel like that's as extreme a reaction as screaming at the Sistine Chapel
What's wrong with these people?
Yeah
I suppose it depends on the emotional state
Because I was very tired on Friday
After getting in from the
Through the snow
And trudging home
and I welled up
when you offered to make me pasta
that's true
maybe she trussed through the snow
yeah to get to the Tilby Carver
and then the grave it turns up
and she just couldn't keep it in
yeah her friend dropped at the train station
so she had to walk through the snow
to the Tilby Carver
okay let's do a few things
from the thread and then we'll do a speed round
and then we'll wrap it up
a friend of mine visiting an elderly relative
ended up having a cup of coffee
which in fact was instant gravy with sugar and milk.
Oh!
He said it was so nice he had a second cup.
Oh, oh.
Yeah, first night over there.
Toby breakfast, did you have the fried up roast potatoes with bacon, cheese and onions?
These are amazing.
Yes, please.
That's the best part of Christmas,
like the fried up roast potatoes for breakfast the next day.
Wow, that is a big claim.
The best part of Christmas.
The birth of Jesus Christ
The celebration of
Not my lord, but some people's lord
Don't police my emotional reaction
Okay
I'm having Irish stew as a late breakfast
So my breakfast has self-graveed
I don't like the notion of something self-graveying
I like the notion of stew
Oh that's something that I agree with
Yeah, stew, no
I hate you when you go somewhere for Sunday roast
And they only get a tiny bit of gravy
Yeah
The worst type of gravy is ju
Okay
Let's
I'd like to use this podcast as a platform
To start my campaign for gravy in London chip shops
This one in Penge
Anyone who lives within distance of Penge
One chip shop
It should be in every chip shop
Fine
Anyway this is my platform for the London Mail election
Whenever it next is
Vote Simon, vote gravy
Okay
Apparently now KFC
I've run out of gravy as well as chicken
I only just discovered how lush KFC gravy is
then it all went tits up
I saw that on Facebook
that they ran out of gravy
oh no
yeah as well as chicken
so if you're going in there to buy chicken
and find out they got no chicken
so you just buy a pot of gravy
you're out of look now
that's what's been happening
that's how they ran out of gravy
people were like oh screw it
I'll just take the gravy and a straw please
I'm here now McDonald's is two minutes walk away
I'll just have the gravy
please and fries I guess we went for a breakfast buffet in the States which was really
the lunch set up with some breakfast items and the children were in heaven the photo of
granddaughter eating an ice cream with a sausage stuck in it will haunt her when she's older
well it's haunting me now so so let's end it there we can do another speed round if you
want yeah am I being unreasonable I love my mother-in-law oh is that it cool yeah great
not unreasonable am I being unreasonable to ask if you ever think of your first love
Posting for traffic.
Is that all one sentence?
Posting for traffic is in brackets.
