  1. careful, you'll get infracted with that kind of talk!
  2. Jesus that is awful, I want to punch the guy after just reading it on here! I actively mock the use of business talk in our team and write down the things people say and the date and time if they are real corkers. I did get in trouble with my boss recently though, when in a meeting with some big important company bosses and one of them said something stupid and I laughed out loud, shook my head from side to side in a disproving manner and then wrote it down. My boss knew exactly what I was doing and didn’t look happy, he also had a word with me about it after the meeting and said it wasn’t very professional of me. Fortunately he’s a good bloke, so wasn’t too bothered when I replied saying “nor is talking like a knob”. ‘Touch base’ is the one that annoys me the most, probably because it’s become so common now. Another common one I hear is people talking about doing some ‘wordsmithing’ on a document to make it sound better.
  3. You say that, but you'll be next.
  4. Hope Deppo wasn't banned just because of this? If you got Deppo banned bowers, I'm gonna start an internet hate campaign targeting you mo fo!

    Groupon Spam

    I often have emails from unknown sources telling such things as - "Vulgar beasts usxe struds tos swallovv" and "Dirty dogs compel honeys tox lovve indeed huge annd roose sticks" I'm not entirely sure what these people are trying to say, but I'm guessing the links they always attach won't take me to a website advertising such companies as Groupon. It’s good this thread exists, I now have somewhere on the internet I can complain about it
  6. This would probably have been a better thread if you hadn't just selfishly watched the dogfight, but instead you'd filmed it for us all to enjoy! But no, you just took it all in yourself, then worse still you decided to come on here and boast about it...... Shocking.
  7. No one really likes paying out money and no one likes paying out more money this year than they paid for the same thing last year, but technically that's not true anyway, as last year we paid for league one football, this year we are paying for Championship football, so not the same 'product' as such. Anyhew, if someone had said to me at the beginning of last season, would you pay an extra £100 to be in the Championship next season I expect I would have said yes! Now we are there I will indeed pay it. It was always going to go up in price this season and we've had all year to get ourselves ready for it and save for it. Personally I've not saved for it, but that's been my choice.
  8. The recent delays in the takover were due to Gaddafi having trouble getting hold of his business partner Ratko Mladic?
  9. I note someone has already done the Wikipedia honours; "Jack signed for Southampton on the 2nd June 2011 for an undisclosed fee on a two year deal"
  10. well said Turkish.
  11. "Our success is tainted because it was achieved using money derived from children being blown up in angola - that is what grates me!" :lol:
  12. i assume that following this good news, we'll soon see a return of Corp Ho to this forum!
  13. Ahhhhhh that old chestnut. It's the hope..................
  14. I used to be amazed at how many of them are in Plymouth when you drive in and out of the city, litrally one after another!
  15. That's not really true is it, even now there are plenty around that are far from clearly signed, some of Dunes points are dated from years ago when things were even worse. And are you telling me you have never been driving along and suddenly thought 'what's the speed limit here'? Speed limits seem to chop & change so often these days, on one stretch of road you can be in a 60 limit one minute, then 40, then 50, etc. For my first 3 points I ever received, I saw the mobile camera up ahead in the lay-by, checked my speed and was happy I was within the limit so carried on as I was. I’d have put money on it being a 40 limit, but it turned out to be a 30 and I was doing 38, doh!
  16. Dune, just call AVIS and ask them! I've hired out cars and vans before when I had 9 points so if AVIS aren't happy it's their loss, just take your money elsewhere!
  17. Mike find out if this forum has functionality to flash message/PM all members? On another forum I use, every now and then when you visit it there's a message comes up in the middle of the screen saying 'the moderators would like you to see this message' which then links to a thread. We've raised over £3000 so far, so kudos to those who have put their hands in their pockets, BUT we have almost 9,000 members, just on this forum, so there are a lot of members on here who haven’t donated yet. Maybe they haven’t seen the thread? Maybe they don’t visit the forum much? If a PM could be sent to everyone maybe that’d help?
  18. Same for me
  19. PinkScarf, in this situation, if someone was hurtling towards YOU (hurtling, that's a funny word isn't it) and the nearest object to YOU was a cup and saucer, out of interest, would you use the cup or the saucer to defend yourself? Ta.
  20. FFS why would you use your own materials when work can supply the paper and take the financial hit! In my poorer days I always used to delay my morning sh*t until I got to work so that I could do it in their time and use their paper. Just get your company to provide better quality thicker paper and then you won't get bits stuck behind. Failing that, just deal with the bits of paper left behind (they won't harm you). Then when you get home each day, pick off and collect in a jar. In what will seem almost no time at all, you'll have a big enough collection to use as confetti when you next have to go to a wedding.
  21. Why would a toilet be p*ssed off with btf drinking bleach?
  22. Has this advert been on normal channels, or have you been watching babestation 1976_Child?
  23. I think maybe after flushing, but it's really your decision
  24. You know how stuff can taste like a smell, and smell like a taste (or is this just me?) but the taste/smell of gin reminds me of the smell of privet hedges (I've not tasted privet hedge)
  25. bft, I think what would make this thread complete, is if you could add before and after pictures of your toilet. Thanks.
