#hoon — Public Fediverse posts

“Pro Jank Footy reimagines the sport as a high-octane fever dream, where every time your opponent #kicks a #goal, you get to change one #rule so the game gets increasingly janky (and hilariously stupid). Your opponents turn into #seagulls. One player becomes massive. A #labrador tries to steal the ball. Everyone loses their arms.

The bouncing DVD logo appears and gets in the way (if it hits the corner, you win). #MeatPies with legs storm the oval to provide energy boosts. A power-up called #DadsCar sees a #FordFalcon #hoon around the grounds. A third team joins in.”

WTF was this #influencer and his mate doing driving all the way from the North to #Suffolk just to #hoon in a car park? Surely there are car parks up there as well, or is he paranoid of the local old bill in his area having attracted too much attention by his bad #driving ?

I think the sentence is fair - the driving ban is going to be far more of a punishment for someone who likes #cars than 9 months in #jail (which will only introduce him to worse criminals and reduce his chances of getting honest/useful employment in the future), but if he drives illegally or does any other crime he *will* end up at His Majesty's Pleasure..

Today's #NYTimes #SpellingBee weirdnesses - common word not allowed: #hoon; uncommon word that is allowed: #yond

#NoWorries has basically been absorbed into British slang now. I reckon you can blame Neighbours and Home And Away for that.

Also commonplace now is #Shonky and #Crook as in ill.

I have yet to hear average Brits call each other a #Galah or #Hoon but I live in hope.
