Oh, hello
I appear to have stumbled upon a lengthy thread. About lesbinism no less.

My own viewpoint: Doesn't matter which bus you ride on, as long as you don't leave chewing gum on the seats it's all cool by me.

The missus says hello, btw. No pooter access at home just now as the monitor is borked and we're waiting for a new one to be delivered tomorrow.

Do carry on.

O hai!
Sucks about your monitor. How are things?
( Maladicta, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:05, Reply)

Not bad, ta.
Ther monitor things a pisser; it just won't switch on at all and we've only had the bastard just under two years after the last one went for a burton.

Ah wells. Work nice and busy though, hence my lack of daytime timewasting of late :/

That's pretty crap really.
And they always do it when they're just out of warranty...
( Maladicta, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:32, Reply)

Warranty Schmawwanty
Things must last "a reasonable period of time" If you pay a few hundred quid for a monitor, lasting more than two years is perfectly reasonable.

If you only paid twenty quid then you've less of a leg to stand on.

But otherwise you can argue the case and demand it gets repaired.

I would have rung them and had a bit of a shitfit.
If this PC cops it in anything under five years, Dell will get the length of my tongue...

Hmm
I can't find the receipt though, so have just had to bite the bullet on this one.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:39, Reply)

Did you pay by credit or debit card?
That's a valid form of proof of purchase. They are not obliged to give you a receipt and therefore they cannot insist upon seeing one. I have used this to my advantage twice. I now keep receipts though as it's much easier than arguing the toss with some numpty who hasn't just read up on their statutory rights.

Credit card, I think.
Can't remember.

I read that as "no poofter access at home"
I thought "Way to use the old-school homophobic insults on a lesbianism thread, DG!"

I did the same thing
but I thought, awww, he's just northern, he can't help it.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:07, Reply)

I pictured Edward from the League of Gentlemen
saying "Poofter, eh? Met your sort in the forces..."

Doesn't Flasheart say something similar in Blackadder Goes Forth?

(Bazongaloid, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:11, Reply)

Not sure
All I remember is "Woof!" and "Last time I called someone darling she was pregnant 20 seconds later!"

I've got a plan
and it's as HOT as my PANTS!

Haha!

I like it firm and fruity!

Am I pleased to see you
or did I just put a CANOE in my pocket?
( Maladicta, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:41, Reply)

You're just as northern as me Al
except you've had it gradually eroded out of your psyche through persistent southern living.

Are you coping alright with watching Championship football
with no real manager and fewer good players?
(Bazongaloid, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:18, Reply)

Surprisingly
We've played better in two games than we did all last season! Not sure we'll get a repeat tonight of the 8-0 thrashing we dealt to Sheffield Wednesday a few years back, but I'm heartned by the start we've had so far :)

I just wish Mike Cashley would fuck off, the useless tub of lard.

Oh god, no
I'm fairly refined for a northerner, dontchaknow. Ask al. I wear coats and everything and don't have a beard full of pastie crumbs.

Girl

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:30, Reply)

I will freely admit
that I am in touch with my feminine side :) I've even been known to buy tampons for the missus when she's up on blocks and unable to move because of the hideous cramps.

Well done
Some men won't even by neurofen just in case someone thinks they're on the blob.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Wed 19 Aug 2009, 15:52, Reply)

seems ridiculous
I'll happily buy sanitary towels etc.

they're clearly not for me, so why get embarrassed?

it's like buying condoms. never saw any reason for embarrassment. just says to the world "yes, I'm getting some!"
