Bastards
My Company (which made a profit of £2 billion last year) has just informed us that we're not getting a payrise because of the economic climate.

What news has made you feel like stabbing someone in the eye recently?

Yes
but a tedious day can sometimes give way to a fantastic evening!

You're right though, it's Friday. I really have to stop being such a bitter old queen.

I refuse even that, I wouldn't waste my cash
Especially due to one lipart of it - "The original anime and and manga was set in Tokyo, but reports are saying this version will take place in "New Manhattan", a metropolis that was rebuilt after being destroyed 31 years ago."

I know it's not been confirmed yet, but even that is enough to warrant several people being cunted in the fuck.

I will hang fire
until i see the trailer or a few clips and make my mind up from there,

however,

if that hamster faced CUNT, De Caprio is ANYWHERE near it, then it can get itself to fuck, what next, Keanu Reeves as Tetsuo

*shudders*

I'll bet that horse-faced balding mongoloid 'Nic' Cage
has his simian hands in it somewhere.

They're all FUCKO'S
Leave it alone, it ain't broke. Talentless, grasping cunts.

My Daughter is called Akira!
This mockery of a film will cause great pain!
( Peej, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 12:06, Reply)

seriously?
unless you are japanese then that is fanboi-ism taken to a new level.

I was gonna call one of my cats Akira, but thought better of it. You must have a very understanding wife.

Still, it means you can shout in A-KI-RA, in a comic book voice and look daft ;-)

Just one point
The article is from 2008 and states a release date of Summer 2009.

Is there a more recent link?

I'm getting a pay rise in 14 days.
So... Every cloud etc.
(PsychoChomp, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:27, Reply)

Why isn't anyone congratulating me on my 2.9% payrise?

(PsychoChomp, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:43, Reply)

Congratulations
Maybe I'll buy you a celebratory pint out of the 4K raise I got on Monday.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:46, Reply)

how do you know that's more than my pay increase.

(PsychoChomp, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:49, Reply)

Tell me I'm wrong if I am
But it's not, is it.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:53, Reply)

No, I don't earn over £137,000 a year.

(PsychoChomp, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:55, Reply)

Well, then.

Christmas music being played

The place I work for is split in to two companies
The other company was given free gym membership instead of a pay rise.

Those poor fuckers.
( Peej, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:36, Reply)

Belching Lioness
To be fair, Im a bit of a fat fucker recently so I would have been relatively happy with a Gym Membership. Maybe even a cagefighting competition throughout my office to determine who gets the one and only 5% payrise.

I feel like cunting someone in the fuck
(McJuurgensHaircut is authorised and regulated by your mum., Fri 6 Nov 2009, 11:58, Reply)

Yes but Gym membership is £40 a year
and what about htose that would never use it.

Cunts
( Peej, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 12:07, Reply)

What gym is that?
£40 a month is more typical. Is this just a rowing machine in someone's basement?
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 12:15, Reply)

Its the Gym on Campus
You pay £40 a year for the membership and then pay each time you go.
( Peej, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 12:21, Reply)

Oh and last year I got 5% so I'm a cunt!
*edit* In fact in the last two years I have had 15.7% in rises and increments, god bless university pay agreements.
( Peej, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 12:08, Reply)

Yeah, but 5% of nothing is still nothing

( Bert Monkeysex is waiting for the mods to delete him, Fri 6 Nov 2009, 13:55, Reply)

No payrise for me
But because I'm so ace at my job my commission tends to increase by about £50.00 a month anyway.
