# Yes, it would be a dull image challenge with many entries that have required very little effort.
However, I've merely followed a common practice of spending my lunchtime putting a bit of graft into photoshopping a topical story only to find every post below me is on the same topic. Oh, woe is me and woe is you.

# it's difficult to avoid when you don't have a pay rise in years but inflation continues and the cost of keeping the house warm rises dramatically
I've stopped buying DVDs and CDs relying solely on Spotify and what's on tv. Don't eat out or go to the pub, only have the one car between the two of us and take on whatever extra jobs I can when they turn up.

Still not doing the job. So, any suggestions seeing as you seem to have it all sussed in your life?

# Get rid of the car and use public transport?
Do more shifts?

Get another job?

Move in to somewhere cheaper?

We're hardly a war-torn nation afflicted by the third year of drought - here in the West we've quite a comfortable living in comparison with many and have an awful lot to be grateful for.
(I helped save b3ta! Je suis un vagabond is an unfunny, up your own arse middle class knob, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 14:25, archived)
# there is no commutable public transport where I live
just 1 bus a week in to a town in the opposite direction of where I work.
More shifts - not in the job I have and as I say I take whatever freelance work I can get.
Another job, the costs in travel or relocation and risks involved are currently outweighing this.
Move - having moved house 3 times now and incurred the usual cost associated with it each time I know this is a stupidly expensive thing to do, plus the housing market dropped since we moved which could result in negative equity for me. so again, no, not really an option.
I agree it could be far worse. But it could also be far better and more rose fucking tinted.

# Depends - I have little sympathy for people who total themselves when drunk.
You're a home-owner, in the middle of the countryside - a position many people would love to be in - you get freelance work, you've got talent and education, a nice computer and time to doss about on B3ta, and you're moaning because a couple of Royals are getting wed and you don't want a compo about it?

Tell me again how I'm being a tool.

# you have no idea about my life and are making really shit assumptions
that's one way of being a tool

The other could be thinking my saying "can't wait for the reposts" is moaning about a compo that hasn't even happened. Maybe you just have a different definition of moaning.

You petty tool.

# You're right, of course - I have no idea about your life
other than what you've told me.

Fair enough - I have assumed that you are educated to a degree - if not then you are supremely talented at drawing.

I assume you have a computer, because you're on B3ta, as well, and have time to doss about on B3ta, because you do so.

And yes - I suppose I did take the "can't wait for the reposts" comment to be sarcastic, and therefore moaning.

Because as we all know, reposts kill kittens, rape babies, and invite Hitler 'round for tea.

You're right - I'm a petty tool.
