The vent

i must've mislaid my tape measure that day. still blows either way

OK. I've calmed down now.

Just cos.

I just stood on my mobile phone charger and it is now fucked

my gym has changed ownership, and they want us to sign new contracts but the monthly rate is increasing by 15Euro a month and no more free water. (they had special water for us to drink).

Special water huh? Please explain further.

It had hydrogen in it.

It was normal filtered water with minerals put in to optimize the workout. So they say. Now I have to schlep my water, its a pain now, as I usually drink about 2 liters with my workout.

it's friday, 2:15 and I have three more hours of office work ahead of me, plus some extra work on the side after that, which brings me to about 9. work through the weekend! I want to fart in my chair.

Feel free, you will be immortalized Officemates with annoying habits.

if no one's around to hear it does it make a sound?

Sometimes we all have to work with people that are a fucking pain in the arse. That's all I have to say

But jeckel.. you are hardly ever there!

Ha ha

I am just a little miffed as 4 parents from kindergarten did not bother to RSVP for my daughter's b'day party held this weekend. I asked if they could either ring or leave a note at kinder for me. They neither RSVPed or came.

They were children that my daughter 'picked' herself and its probably unkind of me to say so, however they were all foreigners (from the Balkans I think) and I don't know whether they felt uncomfortable or something, but I think its rude. I could have invited other children if they had let me know they were not coming (as I was limited space wise).

How much bloody effort does it take to RSVP? I have no patience with people with no manners.

yeah annoying when you send out invites and specifically ask for an RSVP and then don't get one. Especially when you have space issues or reservations to confirm.

Mad co-worker complaining to the end-of-level boss that their charicature isn't flattering enough. Wtf? Wtf? Wtfsfs? Wou're a 50-something, jellybellied, beardy with jamjar glasses, if anything, your charicature makes you look cute and cuddly. What am I sposed to draw? Dudley Moore with a Messner beard? Santa Claus? The little bloke from Thundercats? The entire cast of Dads Army amalgamated in a toothless, good-natured giant? If you were really that vain, you wouldn't sporting that front pillow now sunshine would you...I despair, no pleasing some folk. But you're alright apart from that glitch.

idiots who do not wish to see your side of an argument, or try to understand why you cannot do something on a fucking free weekend. Not everyone has fucking beamter jobs that can come and go as they please, and some of have to work saturdays too, making even less free weekends to enjoy things like sleeping in, grocery shopping or just hanging out with friends.

life in general. work in particular.
you can't have one, you can't have none without the other.
sucko.

I went far out of my way today to the Spanisches Fruchthaus to buy some Mandelnougat to make a special valentines day dessert.

I just wanted to sample a nibble or two.

Now I've gone and eaten too much of it to make the dessert.

I feel sick

Sorry ER but that is the funniest thing i've read today

Story of my life BD, story of my life.

What do they say about the road to hell . . . ?

i've done that before ER!
if you want some good fudge or carmel recipes let me know. I was going to make them for Vday this yr so it'd be great if someone else did.

I hate being ill!!! My throat and ears feel like someone's scraped them with a knife, my legs are like weights and I've been camped out on the couch since yesterday. I'm not a feel sorry for myself kinda gal, but I am today

You should have stayed and had some more Bavarian medicine andrea

I frigging hate my frigging inflexible, unimaginative and seriously illogical bookkeeping program! That's it, I am leaving early, orientation evening for Haggis Junior's junior college tonight.

friggen oversensitive people- jeez we gave two shots of injections, I am only trying to do my job, its not my fault you have a pussied up abcess that fucking smells like hell and you might lose your teeth for lack of care of them.

I friggin' hate the Republican Party. I'm listening to Air America Radio and I'm hearing about more scandals exposed.

When people say things to you and give you no right of reply

oh. i agree bd. not having a chance to reply. or being shut out/brushed off.

That used to drive me crazy

to top off a just wonderful fucking day, my last patient hasn't brushed in 2 weeks since his last appointment, and then the fucking 'sicherung' (cannot think of the english word*) blew, so a bunch of the machines were not able to work... pain in the ass, but our electrician loves us. (he is kind of cute too), and I get to meet him at 6:30 am tomorrow.

but the shortbread has turned out nice
*fuse (your friendly moderation team) edit- thanks! just couldn't think english!

but some of the little cinnamon hearts melted in the shortbread... still tastes yummy, just not that esthetic.

WHICHEVER CLEVER BASTARD AT MICROSOFT THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GREAT IDEA TO BUG ME EVERY FUCKING 10 MINUTES TO REMIND ME TO REBOOT MY COMPUTER AFTER A SECURITY UPDATE SHOULD BE NAILED TO A CROSS AND FORCE FED RUSTY NAILS.

My washing machine eats socks!! Why???

Not possible.. Urban myth.

The socks will not penetrate the seals or IF they did, they wouldnt get past the pump or pass through the waste pipe!

Maybe you put an odd number of socks in there in the first place!



Just so you know.. My washing machine takes the piss out of my boxer shorts!!

I know it's not possible really, but gosh, I wonder where these socks go???

there is a 'sock' galaxy out there, and one day, its going to pour down socks on us.

Well, I actually just found one again; it was hidden in a fitted sheet that I washed 3 weeks ago. Soo hmmm... the one from today is still gone though.

No!!

Its hiding in Next weeks washing!

you two get a room

deja-vu... I think.

damn straight you should forget grinner and think of me every now and then

awww you jealous?

maybe...

Ok, our office is in Germany. But when I see a call from the UK on the display I tend to answer the phone in English with my full very English sounding name. Why the hell does the guy on the other end insist on speaking German with me with an accent thicker than London smog, groping for words like a pedestrian in the same, even after I have asked him a question with English words in it pronounced Englishly and not German-like?

Maybe you haf picked up ze local akzint, ja ?

Aaron Hunt plays for Germany so you never know. Why not just reply in English. He is just trying to be nice I should think

Its possible - I get told that I have a slight German accent at times

Thank God and Greyhound that atheist discussion is gone.

DAMN, it came back to life.

Hon, I think I can still say relocation services with nice growly back of the throat rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr's. Besides, my name is a dead give-away, it's not exactly Hildegund Kammermayer.
