The Recession Jar

missingtime

I've just proposed a theory to my house mates.

If anyone in your house hold mentions the word "Recession" they must put in .50c into a jar.

I'm one of the worst at discussing the bloody thing so I've invented this in order to stop talking about the end of the world.

Can be adapted to include "current climate etc"?

That's a quid you're in for already.

What if they call it the Depression? A €1? Sounds like a good money maker to get us out of the R********

50c? Are ye mad? We're in a bleedin' recession, I can't be affording 50c for no recession jar.

Good idea. But if I owned boards, I'd have just set you back a twenty.

How about a week ban for anyone that doesn't call it Stephen?

And you can have your ban overturned by a 50c online donation to a charity...maybe that way we won't have to see Terry naked at the spire again...

Great idea. Can I just say it, and I don't mean to start an orgy of recession related rants, but everytime I hear someone saying "there's a recession on" I feel like punching them, regardless of age, gender or who their cousin is. It's not a festival of the arts or a talent competition, it's not a flick of the switch matter, it's not on. We are in recession, the recession isn't on! :mad:

I'll kindly and gladly offer to "mind" everyone's recession jars..

Just forward all monies to me :cool:

Mr Benevolent

.50c? Surely it should be more than half a cent? How about 1c?
