    You are likely craving time to be creative.

    or need a midnight dump?

    The fact that my dad is always smarter than and one step ahead of me. Driving down the road at snails pace this morning. Not wanting to be all "me me me" I decided to go for the passive aggressive dig so I said to him, "all the people behind us are going to be really late for work today" and he comes back with, "they should have left earlier".

    Graffiti...

    and I'm not talking about the artistic stuff, I'm talking "tagging" - just some lame nickname in a crappy font.

    F**k off and do some art classes, you anti-social twat!

    I keep having really vivid dreams that I'm heavily pregnant, can feel the baby move inside me and everything. I wake up and it puts me off form for the day, I'm like a dog :(

    Oh I regularly dream about being pregnant. In the dream I'm terrified and really don't want to have a baby. I must delve a little deeper into the meaning.

    Umbrellas in general are bloody stupid things. Imagine the design process:
    "Well John, I've neatly arranged these spiky things in a circle, leaving just enough sticking out to stab someone"
    "Oh really Dave? Whereabouts do you imagine these stabby things should be placed?"
    "Oh, right about eye level should do it!"

    People who use brollies in busy areas without a thought to the other people around them deserve to be rained on for eternity. (But from one of those tiny cartoon clouds that follow them around, so that the rest of us don't get affected, obviously :))

    A colleague asked to borrow a fiver earlier this morning, so I handed over a lovely fresh, unblemished, crackly note.

    She just paid me back in feckin' shrapnel. Jesus, Mary and the Carpenter there are even 1 cent coins in the mix. I now have to fill my purse with ****ty little coins. Grrrrr.

    I know it has been said before but I really despise this whole thing of sticking your tongue out in photographs. Where did that come from? What is it supposed to mean? The offenders seem to think it gives off this "I'm so cool and hip and mad" vibe but they just look like twats. Ooh look at me, I'm forever young. I'm in a pub and I am drinking the alcohol and I am so mad that I just cannot keep my disgusting pink licker in my gob. Grown adults who look otherwise normal suddenly turn into fúcking vegetables who cannot control their maxillofacial movements. The older the offender the more pathetic and annoying it is. And I also find it more irritating when men do it.

    So it begins. The Zombie Apocalypse. Congratulations, you too are as we, i.e. carrying a very rare genetic mutation that renders you immune to Zombification. I take it you have the brace of .45 ACPs, M4 carbine and autoloading Mossberg? :cool:

    You must be doing something right if you're important enough to be deliberately ignored, because that's what's happening until you actually rugby-tackle the guy in The Real World(TM) :pac:

    Posted the other day in trivial things that make you happy thread and mentioned rhubarb yoghurt.

    Went to Aldi earlier to get my fix and not a pot of it to be seen in the place, ugh!
    I got strawberry instead but, tis no rhubarb.

    Nice, but for undead critters who have no idea whether they're injured or not the thump of a .45 is better. :cool:

    On the yoghurt theme, I can't abide bits of fruit in yoghurt! Why can't they make petit filous for grown ups!?

    My desk is near a kettle / coffee dock so I often get to listen to stupid small talk between people as they get their drinks ready. Fridays are the worst for that! I must have heard at least 20 conversations today that started with 'HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!'

    Was in work today and going to be good and have porridge for my breakfast. Then someone uses the last of the milk and doesn't get any more so I offer to go over to the shop where the company has an account. I go out in the pissing rain and get blown out of it. I get to the shop and they tell me that the account is overdue and needs to be paid so they can't give me the milk and I didn't bring my wallet with me. Had to have my porridge with water :(

    Guy in work let off a silent one yesterday, rotten it was, lad behind him says out loud,
    "For fu** sake, whoever let that one go should donate their h*le to science, smelly hoor"
    Had to chuckle at it.
