If you are a long-term reader of Tweaked for your Pleasure then I am pretty sure you are aware that I do not like the public bus service that runs near me and yet again today we have another horror story.

So the other day I was coming home from a place that is long dead when I had to get the bus which the school children use. While I normally have no problems with that bus as the children go upstairs and there is room below, I seem to have it on the day when a few people who were getting on the bus had the biggest ego in the world – an ego so powerful that it makes Final Fantasy’s Kefka look like he is a normal jester.

No one likes your crappy videos

Maybe I am just confused when it comes to Facebook and the many thousands of social networks that is out there but the idea of “like” is purely that when someone watched the video, they will decide that if they actually liked it, they may click the like button which then informs everyone else that s/he liked the video and not the like button being used purely as a marketing tool for videos that people otherwise would not watch in any form even if they was given the option of watching the Twilight saga.

A good way to get people to click awayNow I am sure we have all seen an example of this but if not, I am going to show you an example from the place I am sure all of my fans love, Wrights Productions. In case you do not know but the fan page for Wrights Productions require that you like their page before watching a video, before actually knowing if their videos is good or not (will add the Facebook fan page forces you too, not the website so likely a default setting but still a good example of it).

So the other day I had one of these rare trips into Grantham where I use a car. Anyhow, I finally found a car park on the side of the street at which point I parked. The person in front of me had loads of room to move out and also had loads of room so others could park in front of the person.
