interesting juxtaposition ... one poster is talking about the threat of civil war and the next has no bacon ... for me, the pig ignorant counter chick at rebel in the bourke st mall who took my money without a hint of any demonstrable ability to communicate with me.

Mate, that is the worst! The painting never ends. Just had the chippy in for some minor repairs and now I've got touching up to do and new doors to paint. meh


And well done to EBB. Good luck with your new job, hope you enjoy it.



*EDIT. lol, I just realised this is the 'What pisses you off thread'. You threw me off with your post EBB, why are you not happy about getting a job? :?

A bloke walked into a bar and asked the bartender for 3 double scotches.

the bartender looked, then laid them out.

The bloke picked up the first one and skulled it straight down and reached for the second as the bartender interrupted him by saying "excuse me, it's not everyday someone walks in and asks for 3 double scotches. If it's Ok me asking, is it a special occasion?"

The bloke held up his second glass and replied, "you're looking at a man who just experienced his first blowjob"

The bartender replied, "wow, that's great. Good on ya. Tell ya what, I'll get you another double scotch, on the house"

"Thanks anyway" said the bloke, "but if 3 doesn't get rid of the taste, nothing will".

Very funny Stui.

Franki...it's not what it's supposed to be. I've been misled, so I'm looking for a new employer.

Are you really a "it"? Are you still located in it? When do you think artificial intelligence will replace lawyers?

me: i'd like to send this to nz
post office counter person: that'll be $1.3
me: do letters go by weight?
post office counter person: why? why do you want to know?
me: because i don't know how it works

ffs. why should it matter why i want to know? why the fcuuk are service people so fcuuken defensive with their attitudes? one day i hope to come across someone who genuinely wants to be of assistance.
