minor things that make you fume

The feeling that lids who torment neighbourhoods causing untold problems of anti social behaviour, theft, violence, vandalism, and have records as long as your arm, are described as loveable rogues.

Whole families of them all living next door to each other and turning the neighbourhood into living hell.

Not one of them in work, but a brand new motablity car up every path, along with an old couch, rusty kids bikes, rubbish everywhere and bull breed dog, with cropped ears, that throws itself at the gate every time another dog walks past.

A few years ago there was a youngster around here who revelled in his celebrity as a complete tosser. Local paper full of condemnation of his behaviour and wanting him locked up, some advocating vigilante justice.
Probably going to sound heartless but the kid in question killed in a stolen vehicle, then same people calling him fit to burn suddenly turns into an angel.

There's normally this moniker when one of them tragically dies in an accident in a speeding car, bike or quad. It always reminds me of a certain Queen song.

I love reading the obituaries in the Echo :

“ God only takes the best kidda “

“ Doing a line with the angels now lad “

And that’s just the ones from the mum and dad.
 
The grave is also often saturated with items from their first ever visit to the flower shop unless one other of their brood has shuffled off this mortal coil.

The grave :

Black marble headstone that would do a head of state proud. His nickname in massive gold leaf letters, with a massive photo of him embedded on the front, with a massive spliff.

At least one bench facing the grave, usually ornate white metal, covered in garlands, lanterns, tea lights and dozens of wind chimes hanging from nearby trees and shrubs

Even in death, they still manage to lower the tone.
