What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[overrun]

Hoofing my Escort about on a day which was really unsuitable for the piss-thin bodywork to be exposed to.

 

Meh. The tax expires at the end of the month and then it will be SORN for two/three months, so providing there's no salt on the roads, I will drive it when I can.

[fordperv]

My opinion also is they are there for enjoying so good on you for using it

[Bobthebeard]

Have just returned from a ' just for the fun of it' 25 mile hoon around the local lanes in my 944. Enjoyed it hugely and has made me grin! Car now filthy and splattered with mud, but the car seems to have enjoyed it as much as I did!

It didn't like skulking in the garage it seems. Water pump has now stopped the mysterious leak, the brakes work properly and the gearbox will now go into 2nd without fuss. Am going to use the car regularly now.

Winter? Meh!

[vulgalour]

My brother and I have made friends again after the recent storm in a teacup.  Good.

The Renault Theme. I posted the A side audio about five years ago, well today I recorded the B side and made a video so you can finally enjoy this jukebox classic in its entirety.

.... couldn't you have waited to tell us all and then declared 'Fab Hoon in 944, reported ON p.944'

On the way home tonight in the little derv Renault we turned the corner to find a woman running to the bus stop with her hand outstretched. She did a double take at the purple Clio clearly not believing it wasn't the 244 to Woolwich.

 

Believe it or not, I once (violently) farted in my mum and dad's house years ago, and my dad came running into the front room thinking a car had crashed outside.

It was, in fact, my arse.

WTF is that about? Potential winner of INTERNET PHOTO OF THE WEEK though, it's brilliant!

I'm not sure what it's all about, I found it here. http://www.sadanduseless.com/2014/01/life-in-russia/#more-16548

 

RUSSIA IS MENTAL.

[beko1987]

Fucking brilliant!

 

 

Hope Amy shits herself when she opens the laptop tomorrow morning!

No idea why the picture came up twice...

[dollywobbler]

I posted that pic in the cars and girls thread yesterday. It didn't get much attention there. Maybe the dog needs to be naked.

Russia seems to be a lot like Skem.

..but the women are less hairy in Russia.

I consider myself trumped on that one.

Made it to norleans as they don't call it here after 24hrs of solid travelling. I love jumbo jets but the BA ones are about as plush as a 1984 metro city x and the entertainment system has the screen resolution of a shadow puppet show reflected in a pool of melting butter. We weren't even cattle class either those planes need a major refit.

Anyway no chod spotted but I have already eaten frogs legs and alligator.

The last plane I flew on was Etihad and it was really good, with screen with loads of films and outside plane cameras and free booze.

The only place in the US I like - probably because it is one of the only places that has a European attitude towards booze n fags

I work for a large firm where the HQ are out of touch with operational staff. They sent out shit emails about how this or that must be done.

 

I have recently handed in my notice........

 

So responded to one of their emails (via reply all) with a honest view of their short comings on one subject.

 

Sitting here grinning like fook.........

With any luck, this will be me within the next few months.

Oh look! Page 944! Has anyone checked the sills?

I had great satisfaction in doing the same thing when I handed my notice in at the car parts shop, the guy who owned it was happy to send shitty emails around but couldn't see the reason the business was failing was due to him and his son, for example before I started they told the lads don't even attempt to look for parts for a car older than 2000 because they were "old and the smelly" when I started that changed and the lads in the office used to just put people after parts for old cars straight through to me .

Excellent! Don't suppose you fancy sharing the email, to cheer up all the forum's wage slaves who spend their time fantasising about doing as you have done?

 

On idlefoundation.org people have posted their resignation letters in the past, and they are always a joy to read.

[jakebullet]

I haz shiny shiny halfords sockets bought for my impending birthday doom instead of the usual dismal comedy socks.

[Ghosty]

What was going to be my insurance choice at uni have changed from a low offer, to unconditional, so I'm definitely going to uni.

Thank fuck.

[Angrydicky]

Congratulations!

 

Strangely, if you have average grades the best thing to do seems to be what I unintentionally did and re-apply at 22 as a 'mature' student. Universities seem to have targets for numbers of mature students on their courses, and if you are one, you are pretty much guaranteed a place even though you may have much poorer grades than are required for 18 year olds. Got all five unconditional offers, with no requirement to go for any interviews. At 18 I only got two conditional offers.

Yes......will do on Monday.......will probably have received some 'feedback' from one or two recipients by then!

 

I was very polite......in my experience this makes people who have a superiority complex more angry.
