[New Forum] Dropping money under desk and hitting head when retrieving it

Dustaz · 03-10-2003 2:49pm #1

I tend to drop money under my desk quite a lot and in the ensuing panic i always hit my head on the way back up!

I have an urgent desire to bore the pants off the countless other boards users who also share this experience but i dont think theres any existing forum to post under!!

I really think that if this forum were given a chance, it will only be a matter of time before the irish money/desk/bump/head community flocks to it.

How about it?

So I'm NOT the only one

Dustaz · 03-10-2003 2:54pm

not at all. Its a growing concern and i cant believe its not already covered in boards.ie!

Imposter · 03-10-2003 2:56pm

I can't believe it's not butter.

I quite frequently drop money off the bar in my local. Would this forum be wide-ranging enough to cover this area, or should I request a more specialised forum.

BuffyBot · 03-10-2003 2:59pm

Why can't people see we need this forum NOW!!!!!!!

I endorse this product and/or service.

rofl tbh

This isn't fair. If you get that forum, then I should get one about stubbing my toe on a table/chair/desk. I feel it's a much more pressing issue than your trivial one. tbh tbh

Koneko and Dustaz, why not have a forum that covers both, maybe called it "Weird Occurences with furniture ? "

This would also cover places that are non-office and non-workplace.

I'm sure that was the name of an OMD album

That's just asking for Mercury_Tilt to post something so perverse that it would be frowned upon in even the seedier bars in Amsterdam...

Finally I can feel like I belong.

Make it so, and put a radio on it too please.

sure they'd end up splitting it into "weird occurences with furniture" at home and then in the office. Cause there would of course be a need for it

Can it be a joint forum with " Too lazy to search through my change, so now I have holes in my pockets and money in my shoes"

amp · 03-10-2003 4:14pm

I would tend to whack my head off press doors after getting milk for my cornflakes (hence the opened press door). I demand my needs be catered to in said forum.

no forum on this then?

bonkey · 03-10-2003 4:25pm

Surely, what is needed is an entirely new group heading entitled "How Cool Am I", with various fora underneath it, including but not limited to the afore-mentioned. Other important titles would include "Slicing yourself whilst preparing food", "Falling off office chair from overbalancing, and the all important "forgetting to take spoon out of coffee and stabbing yourself in the eye".

How can these forums not exist already?

Madame, you moderate it.

DeVore · 03-10-2003 4:40pm

I want a Board under music entitled "No I've never heard of that band before. Yes you are very cool to know about them."

Don't forget "Putting the milk in the oven and the salt in the fridge" and "Try to remember where you were when you lost them".

Naval Hair. Gets you in trouble with sailors

Its becoming very obvious from the success of the Dropping money under desk and hitting head when retrieving it forum that there is a desperate need for more fora of this type.

I suggest creating a new section and replacing an existing section.

Since the submenu is pretty full, we should go by yodas alphabetical method and replace the Admin section.

Boards.ie can only grow from this change!

The change that fell out of the pocket ?

It’s plain for all to see that a foibles forum is required.
Now I don’t really know the meaning of foibles or the spelling for that matter but I do know it has something to do with each persons special and common oddities.

My personal foible is lying down too fast in bed and banging my head off the headboard. Yes I know it’s a head board but it’s not padded and it’s not for banging (in that sense).

but im not unaccustomed to banging my head retrieving money, stubbing my toe (always with a cup of tea or coffee in my hand, which i promptly spill) or even over laden pants due to a pub shrapnel surplus

Vote for the Foibles forum

amp · 03-10-2003 5:38pm

I forgot to request a "I can't remember why I came into this room but I know I came in for a reason" forum. Please make this asap.

kthxbye

...My head hurts.

Johnny_the_fox · 03-10-2003 6:43pm

I request for the forum -> "protesting new forums"...

simple - protesting against new forums
