maqroll Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 The General Chat thread. Yeah, maybe it's pure gold, but I never bother. Time-wasting needs to have a PURPOSE, dammit. Time wasting is a purpose unto itself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Selfie sticks. Its so you can take a photo of yourself somewhere, instead of actually remembering that you were there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Selfie sticks. Its so you can take a photo of yourself somewhere, instead of actually remembering that you were there. On that note , I had to laugh the other week as I was at the ** cough ** spot , where baby Jebus was born , hundreds of pilgrims queuing up , we bribed a local and entered through the exit door and avoided the 2 hour queue , but I digress ... Anyhow there is an alter built on top of the spot pilgrims waiting their turn for hours and then when it's your turn you can kinda bend down and kiss the spot or cry depending on what sort of pilgrim you are !! I'm finding all this rather bemusing when this Indian couple have their turn ... They drop down on the area pull out their selfie stick and capture the moment ..... The priest went bat shit at them , I wish I had known what they were going to do as I'd have captured the moment on camera ... Not with a selfie stick though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it like being in the actual film book? Were all the murders / genocides committed by the father realistically reproduced? Is that why some were crying? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 when your missus, her sister and her sisters fella decide they want to go blackpool today. i told them it would be a waste of time and money and the weather would be awful but would they listen? NO, got up there about half 11 and naff all was open. so we drove a 220 mile round trip just to eat fish and chips which was overpriced and did not even fill us up and waste 20 quid in the arcade's. the only thing i enjoyed was the walk on the beach which was nice especially with the noise of the sea and wind as it was really windy. so overall we spent about 80 quid just for a walk on the beach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I have been quite sweary the last couple of days. I think being off work has sent me a bit feral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted January 2, 2015 Administrator Share Posted January 2, 2015 I think being off work has sent me a bit feral. I think I swear more at work than outside of it. Not that I swear much anyway, but I like it to have an impact when I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I swear much anyway, but I like it to have an impact when I do. I have to be able to switch it on and off a bit, depending on whether I'm talking to roofers and sparkies on site or some up himself Client or agent that presumes he's important because he's in a London office wearing a shiny suit. People in glass sided offices are apparently still impressed with a selective f bomb in a meeting. I have found, sadly, that on site there are still a few people that presume its a timid request and not a real instruction unless you shout and swear a bit. Not the actual doers, the site managers, they still live in a very hairy arsed macho 1981 world on a few sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was me thinking you live in the same world as evoked by Max Boyce stories, where swearing never got any stronger than 'bloody hell!'.
