How can people be so dim...
... and manage day to day life. Picture the situation, a contract, a not small sum of money, and a client not knowing the difference between site and sight. (payment to be complete upon sight inspection - not goods on site).

Do I ask too much?

On another note, what's for lunch?

Drunken shopping/huge wastes of money
In about 3 weeks I will get my Saxon documentary DVD.
1) It cost nearly £30
2) At the time I paid for it the fucking film wasn't even finished
3) I don't really like Saxon

This is the stupidest drunken purchase I have made to date (discounting ill-advised drug scores at the end of a night on the sauce). My brother reminded me this morning of his own worst purchase: a replica Chinese warrior's helmet for 49p on Ebay - postage £50. It was really, really, shit. He kept it on a shelf next to his computer as a cautionary warning to himself against future idiocy, until my mother bought it from him for £35 for the Winchester College drama wardrobe - out of pity, I suspect.

Top that, suckaz.

It doesn't make sense.
My bf's ex has decided, after 13 months since she moved, that tonight she's going to the house and pick up her things. She has made clear that I can't be in the house while she's there, from 6.30 untill she fancies.

It was her who left him, and left him well broken, and I was there to pick the pieces and make him happy again (without thinking about going out with him, just as a friend)

She used to be ok with me before, now she (and most of their common girl-friends) hates me.

I don't care too much, I just ignore her these days, but, what is out there that you don't understand?

Right that's enough poetry for one day

I once stayed in a motor park North of Brisbane for a few days, it was weird and full of very "local" people. The day after we left our next door neighbour hacked up his mother with an axe...tell me about your close calls with death.

Plans to make a million.
I'm going to steal one of Crow's "BUMDER ALERT" posts before he copyrights them.
Then I'll get someone to read it like Holly from Red Dwarf and record it.
Then I'll turn it into a ringtone and sell it for loads of money.
I think I have at least one buyer already.
Minted.

Outrageous money-making plans anyone?

I must be geting bored already.
Just had a cold call who asked to speak to the homeowner.
I asked why and the girl got really shirty and said "Well I WAS calling on behalf of Blurble Urble company (can't remember) but in that case I won't bother!"

WTF? Anyone else had any strange cold-calls recently?

There are so many crap films on the cinema right now...
I can't understand they haven't done Ender's Game yet.

On the other hand, if they did, it'd probably be shit and I would be very upset at them for not following the story word by word.

So, which film do you think Hollywood is missing?

Good morning!
Last night I found out that the guy who dumped me over a year ago because he was scared of starting another relationship with someone due to his past crappy relationships and wanted to be alone for a while, is now engaged to someone else.

I feel like the world has been playing a big joke on me and this is the punchline.

I don't want pandering fellow B3tans, I want answers.

It's Mothers Day, and I'm home alone watching chick flicks and going through pics and dvd's of mum.
There's nobody at the pub, I'm staying away from the boyfriend and his daughter for the day for obvious reasons and all my friends are doing stuff with their moms.

So I shall sit here and cry into a bottle of vodka and eat chocolate.
