Selfish

An absolutely brilliant quote in this story on BBC news about the dangers of unmanned level crossings in the UK.

[the people who cause these accidents] are just inconsiderate and selfish. They should be thinking about my situation too, my situation with no husband

Now, I agree that people who commit “suicide by train” and so on, the ones who take other lives as well as their own, are in the wrong. I don’t care if someone wants to kill themselves – it’s when they take others with them as well that I object.

But I still had to laugh at “they’re so selfish. They should think of me”
