It still surprises me that a lot of blocks of flats and the like
don't have floors or apartments numbered 13 because of superstition.

What are you superstitious about?

Or, if you think that's bollocks, what surprises you? And don't say "how fucking dull Kitty is" or I'll get a right strop on.

supposed to be bad luck for some reason
I don't walk over them because an old friend of mine (sadly deceased) used to push me so I didn't when I was about to walk over them, and it is a small way to remember him.

Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Tue 12 Oct 2010, 16:48, Reply)

it's possible.
not the most pleasant of stories, but a little while before he died he'd fallen out of his loft while drunk and broken his shoulder quite badly.

A few weeks later it seemed that while drunk, rather than walk round to the front door of his house he'd tried to climb over the garden wall at the back, failed due to his broken shoulder and was found lying in the road some 4 hours later. Later died of blood poisoning.

Nothing whatsoever.
Not being a medieval simpleton, and all.

I am continually surprised at how ignorant Bobby Pires is. The boy seems bereft of basic facts that most people have learned by their third birthday.

I am still aghast at the statistic I posted a week or so back - namely that 25% of 16-24-year-olds do not know that the principal ingredient of cheese is MILK. This makes my fucking head hurt.

How can so many people be so terrifyingly ignorant? HOW????

earlier, and they've just had the nerve to send me a questionnaire entitled 'how did we do?' - with predictable results.

Sample: 'We would like you to tell us what we should keep doing?'

Ans: 'You should walk to the edge of the cliffs of Dover - and keep going. PS 'We would like you to tell us what we should keep doing' is not a question and thus does not require a question mark.'

Etc
Poor cunts

I had one like that with Virgin Media
They asked: "How happy were you with the way we fixed your problem?"
My answer: "Well, I'd obviously have been a lot happier if there hadn't been a problem of your making in the first place."

My favourite reply
was to 'how do you think we could best improve our customer service?': 'you should sell your customer accounts to your nearest competitor, close your business down immediately afterwards and try your hand at an industry wholly unrelated to either 'customers' or 'service'.

BT do this kind of thing as well
although with a mental alacrity not often encountered with their phone-drones, their customer service people only ever contact us with them when it's about a call with which we didn't have a massive ball-ache getting resolved.

We do not get many of these questionnaires.

I plan on getting some good photos

or they have done nothing (not even hire a car, and I found flights and hotel myself) and they're going to spend Sat eve visiting La Alhambra while I... I don't know... have a nap? spend some hours on my own drinking beer?
