You gotta take the good with the bad
This week I saw three fandom-y things (well, two definite and one that was just my interpretation...), at three different times.
#1 was a guy in a t-shirt that said "I aim to misbehave"
#2 was a second guy in a t-shirt with the helix-y thing from Heroes on/
#3 was a guy wearing the same tweed jacket that Matt Smith's been wearing for his Eleventh Doctor costume.
Each of those made me go *squee* a bit.
On the flip side, today I was walking past a pedestrian crossing - on a side street, not a road where traffic moves particularly fast - when a couple and their two kids were crossing, and the asshole in the nearest car basically didn't stop at the crossing to let them pass. And fyi, there was nothing stopping him from seeing them, and it's a zebra crossing that gets used frequently, so he ought to known better.
The mother of the kids gave him a good yelling-at, though. (No-one was hurt - but they could easily have been.) Gods, there are some self-centred idiots in this world.
