Why not the option of not hating any of my passengers. Some may occasionally irritate me, but generally this is not connected to the act of driving them.
|
I would have thought that inlaws would have been streets ahead here as most parents of responsible adults I know, seem to know better all the time.
I have never had an issue with MiL after I suggested walking as an option though!

I had to vote other. I hated my ex girlfiend's dog as a passenger in the back, putting dog hairs everywhere and saliva all over the windows and door trims.
|
You beat me to it Dave. I was going to say what about dogs?

The question "who?" precludes animals. To include our noisy, slobbering, smelly, furry friends, the question should be "who or what?"

Well, I voted Father in law, but it told me (as usual) that I had already voted. I'm off to join the suffragettes...

Splodgeface,
I *might* have forgotten to reset the log that checks whether people have already voted or not.
Anyway, reset now. See if you can vote.
|
Thanks DD. Looks like it has worked. I can now rest at ease knowing democracy is safe...!

A social psychologist would have a field day with this poll. The closest relatives, mum, dad, partner and children are most peoples' least welcome passengers!
PS Does seventeen year old blonde hitchhiker count as "other"?

Only if you hate him/her being a passenger.

Whose children? Yours or someone else's?

Don't you mean pedantic? (What -- moi! Never!)

I voted 'other' as I dislike having any passengers, it means I have to turn the radio down, make conversation, not curse other drivers, cannot sing along (v badly) to any good songs, not throw litter into the passenger footwall, have to drive in a civilised manner etc.

The other half because she virtually never stops twittering full blast down my left ear even when I'm faced with tricky road situations.
She also consistently spoils Radio2, Delta Goodrem, Katie Melua, Texas, Keane, Maroon 5, Robbie Williams, Eva Cassidy, Travis, Shania Twain, Suzie Bogguss etc...:-)
If I turn the sound up, so does she....:-))
