Biscuits
I've just spent an hour and a half in a Board (bored?) meeting. I normally have no objection to these - I'm easily mollified by the tea and chocolate biscuits (or, if we're lucky, sandwiches).

Today: nothing. Not so much as a stale bourbon.

Add to that the fact that the common-room ran out of teabags last week...

I CAN'T WORK IN THESE CONDITIONS!

our water cooler was taken from us last year
on the basis that it's bad for the environment.

I don't really give a flying fuck if it's bad for the environment (which they were not able to conclusively prove), I want something nicer than shitty basement tap water in a crappy tea-stained mug.

Now that's an affront to your human rights
No teabags? Call a lawyer immediately, then the union, then the Daily Mail.

We have a water-cooler, but it's sponsored by Christian Aid, if I remember rightly. I try to remember to blaspheme every time I use it.

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhh
Wouldn't happen here, nobody drinks tea! We have just run out of coffee though!

I'm already shaking.

@WeeWitch
I work in a law school. I'm surrounded by feckin' lawyers... you'd've thought they could have arranged a nice class action by now. But no.

*sigh*

Self sufficiency
is the way to go.

I have a little fridge which sits under a table in my office, in which my Irn Bru lives, along with my boss's milk for his tea.

lawyers only "arrange" things if you pay them. Selling a kidney ought to be enough.

If not, I'll come down and arrange a picket line for you.

It's my last day in the office here
Ever! Yay!
So I got leaving cake.

And coffee

@TWW
This is freaky. Two of my colleagues have published work arguing that I ought to be able legally to sell a kidney, and outlining what the legislation should say.

I'm not that desperate for biscuits, though. I may just go home and gorge on Cornish Farings and Marmite biscuits. (Have you tried them? They're lovely.)

you took the words right out of my mouth.

I wonder if, like meatloaf, it must have been whilst you were kissing me?

Marmite

@al
no, no no. The marmite should not be permitted near GIGANTACOCK! GIGANTACOCK is best served fresh, with perhaps a hint of mimsy.

Is it OK to be agnostic about Marmite? Sometimes I love it; sometimes I'm not so keen.


But Marmite biscuits are always ace.*

Mmmmmm
a hint if mimsy. I like it when I have to get up early and only have a very quick shower and I still have a hint of mimsy on my fingers. It makes digging holes that bit more fun.

@Enzyme
the dogging was only one time. I got interrupted by this Irish lass, looked a bit like an angry retard. But of a seasoned professional by the looks of things. Apparently, the name is a little confusing, and bringing your own dog is a bit of a faux pas.

Marmite biscuits are absolutely great
They are only improved by the addition of a piece of mature cheddar.

Well, I'm sure someone would be willing to tea-bag if you asked... and maybe even if you didn't.

You can have one of my lesbian tea bags and a homemade digger biscuit.


BTW, no lesbians have been hurt in the process of making the tea bag.
