In a week where it emerges that the new Health Secretary is a fan of the hocus-pocus that is homeopathy, tell us about people who are spectacularly out of their depth in a job. Have you ever found yourself wallowing in your own incompetence? Tell us. (Note: "Name of football manager/politician - nuff said" does not constitute an answer)

I went for an interview lately as a developer on an "evidence-based medicine" website. As a fan of Dr. Ben Goldacre and having until recently worked at a medicine-based charity I thought this would be a perfect fit. However, at the first meeting between myself and the person who wanted me to set up this site, she:
* recommended that I read the books of Deepak Chopra and that we should sell them through the website
* suggested that "traditional herbal remedies" from around the world would be an appropriate thing to sell under the banner "evidence-based medicine"
* represented the pair of us to a third party as being from the medical charity that I no longer work for
* told me that I'd also be her personal secretary
* told me that there wasn't any money and I'd be working for free until I sold some Deepak Chopra books
At this point I made my excuses and left.

Then I contacted the medical charity whose name she was using fraudulently and they basically outed her as a quack and borderline nutter, collapsing her business within six days

I noticed you've at least had a go...though I'd probably have gone with "Decepticock" or "Megapr0n". And then there are the Transformers whose names just lend themselves to innuendo, like Slag, Grapple, Thrust, Discharge, Slapper, Erector, Skids...there's even one called Nexus Prime which is the name of a best selling vibrator and someone at Hasbro forgot to Google it. Or maybe we could move on to Star Trek? I prefer Star Trek if I'm honest.

Little kids could work this stuff out on their fingers, but the average qotw spastic can't even get that far. You wanna swap ten pound coins for one of your ten pound notes?

Still, at least I'm not some creepy autist with an embarrassing fixation on a piss-poor 1980s children's cartoon with toy cash-in, onto which I've managed to shoehorn a sordid sexual angle. That would be really fucking unpleasant.

Sadly on closer inspection this is the tranformers pornography, which the astute out there will note has precious little to do with transformers and the Sun contains more 'pornography' ileftmytoysout.tumblr.com/tagged/i_left_my_toys_out . Just you watch though this time next year Emvee will be a millionaire off the back of it and will finally get to leave his doss bedsit in finsbury park, just you all wait and see.

Wrong again, Rory, but if it suits you to think I live in Finsbury Park then let's say I live in Finsbury Park. And while the website is just a (minor) hobby for me, I'm really enjoying the way it gets you interspastics all riled up and righteous.
Keep posting the link too, willya? Cheers.

Are you and Rory competing for cretin of the thread? At the moment I think you're ahead but only because of the sheer volume of mindless fuckwittery on display. Rory has some catching up to do, let's see what he can come up with.

You seem to be a little flustered - I'm a little worried about your stress levels. I mean, even with the rollicking success of your robot sex venture, you appear to be a little hot under the collar here.

I am feeling vaguely guilty about exploiting the feeble-minded for my own amusement, but as I'm off work today I haven't really got anything better to do. I've already weeded the garden, taken out the rubbish and unblocked the drain in the upstairs bathroom after all, so talking to you isn't that much different.

We just all have to believe in 'I left my toys out', perhaps even putting cynicism to one side that it's a site put together by gay bent spastics for gay bent spastics ileftmytoysout.tumblr.com/tagged/i_left_my_toys_out
PS I'm very sorry that I've gotten the precise location of your super secret bedsit hovel wrong, I'll try not to do that in future.

no-one cares about the opinion of a fat spastic like you
'cause if that's the first time you've seen the site, so far all you've been doing in this thread is parroting AB or Rory Lyon, for fuck's sake, without knowing what you've been talking about
which is frankly pathetic, you fucking sheep

Nothing wrong with Deepak Chopra books, provided they're printed on soft paper.
