Things that make you go.......WTF?

[watt price tully]

Had a bit of a tumble (dead cold sober) at the elephant sanctuary in Thailand 2 weeks ago - bloody leg is still sore so of to have an xray. Bloody fractured my head of fibula no wonder it's still painful - what a dickhead

Jesus, Mary & Joseph; friggin' hell. Just saw this now. Wow, WTF indeed!!

Hope you get better soon

This morning i slept a little late, so i figured i may as well go for the blood tests i got the note for back in july! i rock up at 7.29 and there are 4 people already there, they start at 7.30. a couple more arrive and sit down, then a women comes in, looks around sighs and plunks her butt. the nurse comes out with patient 1 and she stands up, no excuse me no please no thankyou 'will this take more than 20 min? i will have to come back? or ill get my laptop? " the nurse explains patiently that each patients needs are different and she cant estimate. the woman storms out with her number in a huff! i really wish id said and you just cost us all an extra 5 min! she came back a while later and takes up 2 chairs with her obviously very important shit! 3 more have arrived, its been about 25 min. in comes a guy in work gear, and he gives the poor nurse an earful! im not really sure what these 2 morons expected to achieve! i waited 40 min, so av 10 min a person, its not long, and hey, its a queue, get there earlier! what is it these days that people seem to think their time, their needs are more important than anyone elses? why cant people take responsibility for themselves? Get there earlier, come back at a time when your not in a hurry. I felt so sorry for this nurse, i actually said im so sorry you have to deal with these impatient sods and i appreciate your time, have a great day! Im sure She has copped worse. This is shit that should not happen. its not necessary, and it just puts a damp spot in everyones day! I get people at the docs getting pissed when they load appointments at 10 min intervals, so the wait time blows right out, but i go to a decent clinic now, and ive never waited longer than 15 min. Some people dont seem to understand the meaning of "waiting room!" i probably would not have noticed so much had i not read this thread yesterday. doesnt take much to ignite a spark these days.

I'm sure the nurse would have liked hearing your empathic words. I go at about 1130 for blood tests or early pm to avoid the queues.

The viral chair challenge. Didn't believe it so tried it at work...

The blokes at work definitely can't stand up straight while holding the chair. Like, they can't even get a little way up! Women no problems.

That's weird. It can't be as simple as centre of gravity, there's plenty of women who are quite top heavy, must have something to do with the hips and glutes which is the area that drives that straightening motion.

Simple Trans test if it works.

A random search brought up this old thread, and all I can say is: who is this "David" character and who allowed him to post on this forum!?

As the saying goes: if you're not a concerned student conservative at the age of 20, you have no heart, and if you're not a socialist at the age of 30, you have no brain. (But yes, the Lot's Wife of 2011 was pretty ... well, "earnest" is the word, I suppose.)

I like that David, bring him back. Look at the angry old leftists brigade you too, the more things change...
