Please remove your helmet....

  1. Fair enough. It would be a dull world if everyone was as socially
    refined and generally great as me.

    Guy Fawkes says...
    He smiled at me with a "Haha, you lost her to me" look. That just tipped
    me over the edge I'd been on for the last 3 weeks. I just went totally
    ballistic in a way I hadn't gone in over 15 years. I had to stop myself
    before I did him serious damage.

    It went further than that when he sent two MP friends round to avenge
    his kicking. That ended up in a Courts Martial and two NCOs doing a
    short spell in Colchester military nick.

    I'd stayed faithful to every woman I had been with since I was 21, it's
    not that difficult. I couldn't understand why my ex couldn't do the
    same.
    No. I walked out on her and 3 kids as soon as I found out. I told her
    exactly what I thought of her, and when her parents asked me why I'd
    left I told them exactly what she'd been up to as well.
    He knew what it would do to a family unit if it was discovered. He was a
    serial chatroom lounge lizard. She later found out he had about 5 women
    on the go at the same time he was shagging her. He picked on vulnerable
    women whose husbands/boyfriends worked long hours or worked away.
    I used to cheat, but gave it up as a bad joke when I was 21. I only
    recently did it again, but I wouldn't call it a serious breach as I am
    not really emotionally involved with either woman.

    Now the colder weather's on the way, simple comply with their request.

    Of course, they'll probably have a nice "Please remove balaclavas and
    ski-masks" sign up next time...

    I do pretty much the same: helmet off in shops, leave it on at petrol
    stations.

    I do think that it's silly to ask for helmets to be removed, though;
    if I were to be toting a weapon or something then I'd hardly be likely
    to obey some silly little notice about helmets, would I?

  7. I've no objection to being asked to remove it for a good security reason
    - like: "Robbers sometimes wer 'em"

    I *do* object being lied to, and being told "It's because we have
    children in here"[1] when the real reason is that someone wants to
    capture my mug on CCTV.

    [1] Honest - this was what she said.

    You are. You should've chatted her up and passed the number on.

    Indeed, although I also usually have a need to get to work too.
    LOL, yes, or at least they will after I walk in wearing one.

  15. If you were a Muslim woman, you'd be a pretty damned ugly one, so no.

    Seems unlikely.

    Remove your helmet and let them see the IRA-style black balaclava you wear
    in the winter...

    Politeness? I clipped the rest sorry.

    You come no 5 on the list ..

    So, **** it, she was worried. You think you look attractive with a big
    helmet?

    Anyway, I'm sure her family is glad she came back alive.
