I too an seized with technoglee as my Palm Pré has arrived. I'm trying to resist the temptation to spend the afternoon setting it up and fiddling with it when I should be working.

What are you resisting the urge to fiddle with What was the last thing you had delivered?

I was walking into work this morning and a vision of my parents dogs playing in the office popped into my head and when I got inside, there was Benji.

And sometimes when the phone rings, I know that it's my sister or mum.

Following a text I got this morning, who's the person you first connected with on b3ta?
It doesn't have to be in a sexual way if you haven't met them or if you're just mates, but I'm curious to know what kept you coming here long after the appeal of OMGZ girls on the interwebs wore off.

Mine was Kaol. Way back around 2 years ago we started chatting on QOTW about random shit and he was also the first person I met at a bash. I miss him being on here all the time, but I'm glad he's happy now, even if he is in Wales.

That'll learn him
I was getting on the bus. The girl in front of me had a broken thumb and was struggling to get her money out and get on at the same time.
I was behind her and so wasn't fully inside the bus.
This was obviously taking too long for the driver, so instead of telling either of us to hurry up, he just starts driving and then SHUTS THE DOOR ON ME! Totally hitting me, and I could have fallen, off, as it is, I fell on.
I told him he hit me with the door and he just glared at me. No reaction. The tombstone-faced pigeon-eyed cunt.

So when I was getting off the bus I said "It's not very polite to go shutting your passengers in the door, you could have just said something!" and then, instead of just leaving it at that, I allowed the red mist to take over. And on my last step off the bus, I turned, pointed and said "I hope someone squashes your daughter in a door!!"
What the fuck?!

When should you have just shut up?

I'm just about to have my objectives set in my PDR
Thing is, I don't realy do anything that could be classed as a "S.M.A.R.T" target. I sort of just do odds and ends that need doing for my team. Everyday I get given a different (but always spreadsheet related) task.

So how I'm going to be given objctives is quite interesting, I'm sort of looking forward to it to see how my boss is going to set some.

There's an advert for coffee, I think it might be Kenco
which boasts they now have 98% less packaging as they've switched from glass jars to plastic pouches, the caveat on the ad is that it's 98% by weight. But this seems silly since glass is easily and relatively cheaply recyclable whereas plastic pouches are just going to get thrown out. Plus plastic is made form oil, whereas glass is made from sand, and we've got a lot of sand in the world.

So they are claiming to be greener, but they're really not. I for one am shocked at this. Who's with me?

A topic about breasts!
Last night I was watching some weird thing about milk, or it may have been dairy in general. Anyway a tall guy presented it and as it looks like all our dairy farmers are goign to go tits (fnar) up he suggested we all drink human breast milk instead.

Most people seemed more disgusted at drinking the milk from the same species than from a moocow. So... would you drink human breast milk?

Last week on that Charlie Brooker's TV thing
an embittered American comic blamed global warming on the clunge-fruit of stupid people, who were unable to stop themselves from procreating.

Now, while I agreed partly with what he was saying, I also couldn't help thinking that people had always been having children, and the only thing that had changed was that now we are all living longer.

So whose fault is it? Do we sterilise the stupid, or euthanise the old?

Winter Olympics
I've never had any interest in curling whatsoever, so why am I seeing it on in the background at 1am and then watching intently for an hour? It's only redeeming feature is that every women's team seems to have a fittie or two. I would disappoint that Eve Muirhead a number of times along with a couple in the Danish team and the whole of the Russian team. Shame they all can't curl for shit.*
