Can they not see the lack of logic here??
The driving one made me laugh, but its not funny if you dig deaper.
It's got nothing to do with logic. The Saudi culture is totally different and I think much older to ours and it is a question of reepecting their culture. Many things which seem normal to them may seem barbaric to us however, many things that seem normal to us will be barbaric to them. I'm not conconing it and I'm not condemning it. Everyone in Saudi will know the laws and punishments. The **** one is a bit harsh but it's their culture.
Pouring petrol over a woman and setting her on fire because she's been raped, yes just a tad barbaric Id say. I dont think the Saudi women trying to escape the regime are too keen on it either. Talk to them about respect.
They have a point. You should see me attempt at the the parrallel park. I usually just give up and end up with the bottom end of the car in the middle of the street.
You know there are cars now that do this for you

You can just read a magazine, check the shopping list and hey ho, the cars in the gap. Sounds good to me. Or alternatively a nice pink smart car that can go in end-on

That sounds even better....but Im not sure they go very fast.
