What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[Guest Leonard Hatred]

The highlight of my Facebooking world was deleting my account.

[Negative Creep]

Angry Birds - my God that game is addictive.

 

 

Also what made me smile was a letter from a lady called Theresa Wood, whose email began treesarewood@ - I thought that was quite clever

[Alexg]

 

Jesus! No, not mine! How the frig has that stayed in there? As you say it appears to have been there for some time! And how did I not notice it?!

 

I'll be keeping it then!

Been working as a cleaner since November, part time.

 

Went in last week to find out one of the two guys in the warehouse bit of the shop was sacked on the Saturday.

 

Manager asked the other guy if he knew anyone suitable so he asked me.

 

So that's my second job now with no formal interview, lol.

 

Did my normal job this morning then spent the afternoon doing the other job as the guy is struggling on his own, my legs are killing me, I'm filthy from carrying pallets and kitchen units about

but it's good to know I'll have enough money in a month for the 1st time in ages to pay the bills and etc. without being skint the same day as payday.

 

Not looking forward to weekends/Bank holidays working and stuff but better than nothing and I was quite bored of cleaning stuff when you come in the day after to find some tramp of a customer has

pawed all over it again.

 

Also I've been taking the pallets that are thrown out as they can't save them and the head office don't want them back, took 8 Euro ones to a place I drive past to work last week - £15.00 cash in hand.

(i've another 30 stock piled at home so that's another £60 or so).

I managed to get 30mpg out of the Lancia on the commute to work. I feel I can now now justify keeping it as its not ridiculously uneconomical ... if driven carefully

[eddyramrod]

Quick, somebody send Claypole a Transit! Pre-85, obviously... Seriously lad, well done, and if you find you need to build yourself a fence, dog kennel, whatever, at least you have a source of decent recycled timber...

[Negative Creep]

Hey, I'm actually talking to a real (well I presume she is) woman through online dating. Only been chatting to her since last night, seems like a nice girl, only lives a few minutes down the road from me, not sure if she's my type but seems keen thus far...............this is going to end in tears isn't it?

[Cavcraft]

The highlight of my world was (is) to never have a Faceache account. It's hard missing out on Shaz telling the world she's been to the Co-op for ten L&B, and Terry telling all and sundry he's been to town on the H21 and it was 31 seconds late, but I'm sure I'll live with it.

I think that's the most sensible thing you've ever posted on here.

 

Did you soft or hard delete? There are times when I want to bin faecesbork as well, it can get intensely annoying with all the OMG LOLZ UNI GROUPZ that insist on using it to communicate. I suggested a phBB forum like this and they looked at me like I'd shat on the floor.

 

There's a useful article here that shows you how to sack FB off properly, should anyone feel the need.

^^ the "how to delete your facebook account" page has a facebook "like" button, which has been clicked 11,000 times.

 

That made me grin.

I've never had a Facebook account, because I'm above such things.

 

Also I don't have many friends and it would be tragic

[scaryoldcortina]

Speaking of facebook (which I also don't use) did anyone else notice this little drama on RR last week?

The dogs and I have three things in common: we don't like each other, we'll eat virtually anything, and none of the three of us has Facebook. Unlike everyone else in the house.

Apart from the baby, and he's only on keyboard mashing so far. Give him time...

[Lord Sterling]

I've never had a Facebook account

 

I did once sign up many moons ago to see what it was all about just before it exploded and got really popular. I couldnt then see the point and deleted the account. I've never been back and have no intention of doing so, despite everyone I bump into telling me to make an account cuz u wlll havz a lyk sik profile innit!!!

Suspect bidder on the Corsa. Joined eBay this February 2011, only has one feedback (which was private) and Goofbay revealed this is what he bid on...

Sheila's Wheels (Mans Version)

 

Fellas, aren't you glad you're not a woman

You're not a Sheila,

You're a Peter or a Clive

Because their lack of spatial awareness

Makes them really fucking careless

You should never ever let a woman drive.

 

When a girl is sitting at the wheel

You're gonna hear the crunch of steel,

There's a very real danger that she'll crash into a stranger,

If you want to leave the car alive

Never let a woman drive.

 

Beware the Peugeot 206

They're only ever bought by chicks.

And their usual destination

Is the central reservation

If there's any hope that you'll survive.

Never let a woman drive

 

If you ever let a bird reverse

You're gonna end up in a hearse,

You're in massive fucking peril if your driver's name is Cheryl,

If you want to leave the car alive

Never let a woman drive.

Suspect bidder on the Corsa...

I once sold something to someone whose previous purchases were a 0.01g-100g pocket scale, a 100 pack of tiny ziplock bags... and a balaclava.

There's a seller on eBay called yumcustardtarts who specialises in Piazzas, model Piazzas...........

 

And bondage gear. A very strange gentleman indeed.

In a non Piazza \ bondage seller segue,

 

1. I now have GIMP 2 working on my netbook (yes, stop tittering)

2. I can now change the wallpaper on Windows 7 starter because of a piece of 'SpecializedColor' software I downloaded.

3. Found 'Slip' by Quicksand. Now playing on the stereo.

4. Picking up the brown H511 and GT500 wheels today. They've finally cleared customs.

 

Anyone want anything from the Luton area?

Nicely said Trigger.

[Cavcraft]

If I didn't laugh I'd probably set fire to my computer.

Latest imbecile who hasn't read the listing for the Corsa has three (recent) feedback and one of his previous ones was a negative for not buying a Corsa he 'won' on eBay

Can't seem to find that thing on there where you can see what town people are from so popped his username into Google. Transpires he's a male escort in Blackpool

 

So that's another on my blocked bidders list.

Thankyou.

 

The bid removal fairy has come out to play.

Is there a way to hard delete immediately? I just 'soft deleted' then didn't log in again which should have 'hard deleted' it.

[dollywobbler]

I still rate FB. In fact, it makes me grin. Which is apt. A few times, we've caught up with people from our pasts that we'd lost touch with and had a really nice time. One friend came over all the way from Australia (though not 'specially to see us).

[Guest Leonard Hatred]

It does have its uses, but not for misanthropes.
