You know it's bad when 11am rolls around and you've failed to do any work at all
My old car died last weekend and I was very sad to see her go to the big scrap heap in the sky. But what inanimate objects are you stupidly attached to?

'You know it's bad when....'
My brother stopped to tie up his bootlace once, and whilst he was doing so someone tossed him a coin, thinking he was a Homeless.

a) ahahahahahah
b) oh dear

Tell me about times when, just when you thought things couldn't get any worse, they did. Please note, I am looking for lighthearted comical yarns only here. I couldn't give a toss about the time three of your grandparents croaked in the space of a week- and they didn't find Grandma Joan for three weeks by which time she'd melted into the radiator. I don't give a shit. In fact, it's giving me a 'lazy lob on'.

You know it's bad when a colleague, apropos of nothing, suggests you make a formal complaint against your boss.
I am 31, I have a 2.1, I have formal marketing qualifications, I have excellent references from previous bosses. My current bosses treat me like a child, use insulting language to me, mark my work down as incorrect on a whim and have removed flexi time from me.

I regularly work over my contractual hours, apparently this shows that I am ineffective as I need to take longer to get through my work which is then marked down on a whim. This is the only instance I have known where working unpaid overtime is a bad thing.

They are cunts and seem to think that 'training' boils down to reading a procedure and following a poorly laid out file.

I am trapped.

ARGH BT SHITCUNTS
This morning I get a text saying an engineer won't be calling as I'm already wired up so I don't need to take the day off. A bit fucking late by then, and they must have known all along. Then the BT Hub and phone never turned up and I have to spend twenty minutes navigating their phone system - along the way being told I have no order - to discover it's delayed until the 11th. AND YOU COULDN'T FUCKING CALL EMAIL OR TEXT???? Nnnnngh.

What's a worse word than shitcunts?

If no one else is going to...
what is your opinion on regifting? Like some of you I'm sure, my more mainstream friends and relatives have no idea what my interests are therefore end up with "alternative gifts" e.g. table books on body art, banksy prints... so many banksy prints, vouchers etc. I tend to regift some of it throughout the year. Is it scabby or fair enough?

ALT: Best/worst gift received?

Next Thread
Let's talk about drugs. It's fair to say the War On Drugs isn't working, that something at the core ethos of drug control needs to be changed. Do you do any sort of drug reguarly? I think, looking at alchole and ciggerettes, and the amount of how many clinicly addicted people there are, that legalising of other addictive drugs isn't the awnser. They're cramping down on codine based OTT products, I've been banned from a few phamacists even though it's part of my regular drug regime and have showed them proof... so I just make sure I don't get banned from other places by buying from different ones each week. I think it would be worst for a stronger drug, such as Morphine.

But saying that, what's currently going on doesn't really work eaither. There are ways of getting Control Drugs too, such as the fact that you can get prescriptions online in the UK (never done it, but would like to try it, to see the process work or not, but wouldn't risk it in case they speak to my GP and I get banned).

Do you take drugs reguarly? My story with drugs is pretty much the same as the TV show 'House'. What's you view on the whole thing?

The idea of drinking tap water out of a tea mug makes me feel physically sick.
One of my staff is doing this very thing RIGHT NOW. I find it genuinely repulsive.

MORE NEWS AS IT HAPPENS.

Speaking of news, do you reckon anyone will go to prison for the NOTW phone-tapping shit? I don't. I think they should execute that ranga woman, she looks like a right cunt.

Bloody hell, England have made a blinding start in the cricket





No? OK. Today I learned that Labyrinthitis is nothing to do with golden mullets, bonkers codpieces or commanding an army of unconvincing Goblins; it's all about inner ear function and induces vertigo. What ridiculously-named diseases have you suffered from, or would wish upon your fellow B3tans?

Please feel free to be as creative and vindictive as possible. Extra points will be given for Bowie references.

New message stolen from my own facebook feed
so apologies if you've already seen it.

I just 'picked up' after my dog while we were out playing, and I went to get my hand sanitiser out of my bag. Of course the bastard thing goes off all over my hand.

Is this premature sanitisation, or am I just too sexy for everything?

Alt: lunch. It's about that time, I suppose.
