Just a mistake, I realy don't see how those lines across the road can possibly cause this woman or any driver any suffering at all (given that no idiot is likely to try and park at that angle, and those driving through will just pass over them anyway) so why does she care?

I'm sure there was a quote that said the lines were an attempt to make drivers think twice about "cutting through" there or something similar.

Not the best lines to use, but a bit of common sense wouldn't go amiss.

EDDIE WRENN isn't going to go far as a DM Reporter... he appears to have wasted valuable churnalism time contacting several residents, a solicitor, a local councillor and a City Council spokesman for quotes when he could have clocked up several of his daily target articles copy and pasting press releases...

Unless of course he has just rearranged the words from a local paper article...

A beauty here. Arms folded, offended article in place, full fancy dress. The young sadfacer is only let down by a PLU fail - made up illness.

Quite possibly the archetypal Mail Online comment, there. Should be framed and hung on the wall.

No. There's no reference to immigrants, Muslims, people of colour and homosexuals.

I'm trying to decide whether this actually counts as a sadface:

But given the heartstrings-tugging nature of the poor lamb's story, I suspect it deserves to worm its way in?

No, that's definitely akin to Obama's "Not Bad" face.
