The grumpy thread

[Mr_Bo11ox]

is it that red one off the bay a while back?

[Spiny Norman]

Another mysterious* tyre bonfire in Glasgow tonight, less than a mile from Spiny Towers and literally right next door to SVM member cms206's work. Apparently they've lost a couple of buses.




 

[retrogeezer]

Why do we bother?? I'm just watching Traffic Cops from earlier and they had stopped a Ghanian immigrant chap who ran 2 red lights. It turns out he has no licence, no insurance and no MOT.

 

What does he get?  Ã‚£125 fine!!  FFS, it's cheaper than MOT'ing and insuring your bloody car.

All that stands between about 3000 burning tyres and my office is about a million quids worth of coaches, a well toasted Renault S56 and 8000 litres of diesel... firechaps still won't let us in.

[chaseracer]

Probably wise, in the circs... 

[sheffcortinacentre]

& he'll not turn up to pay the fine.

You all got your own cars out though?

[cms206]

You all got your own cars out though?

Yeah. Gaffer doesn't know yet as hes flying back from Tenerife, my colleague's 9-5 and the raffle find 850 of doom are both out on the main road.

[dugong]

Yeah, room mate's on the job again. She's either getting ploughed or doing a massive poo. Hmmmm.

 

Not a prude but neither of 'em work and their rump a dump is keeping me awake - and I'm knackered.

 

I'll be sleepingin the fucking van at this rate. AAAAAAAAARGH.

[ruffgeezer]

Knock on the door and see if they want you to join in, hopefully that'll embarrass them into shutting the fucking up.

[Cavcraft]

Oh yes, tyre fires. The one in Chester a few years back cost me a nights work at the car auctions, the bastards.

[Caffiend]

Knock on the door and see if they want you to join in, hopefully that'll embarrass them into shutting the fucking up.

 

Next time, record. The time after that, play back at maximum volume.

[cms206]

Apparantly only four out of nine cars are shit... the tyre fire has meant the metal reprocessors is closed for business for the time being.

[Lankytim]

Just wank noisily.

[dollywobbler]

Just wank noisily.

 

Then walk out of the room with a big grin on your face and a copy of Jalopy.

[Lankytim]

Just to add, that reply was for Dugong, not Cms206.

[chaseracer]

Most of the scrap motors on that truck are newer than mine...

[rml2345]

I think they're all newer than mine. And the truck. And the two coaches.

No sense of fun these modern firemen.

[cort16]

I hope there's not too much damage at your work CMS. I think tyre fires are pig to put out too.

What one would you have though? For me it'd have to be the Mondeo.

They'll probably come a-knocking on his door

[Pillock]

Yeah, I saw that on The Simpsons.

[Honey Badger]

Transverse FWD V6.

 

 

They are the work of Beelzebub, and are designed by sadists with tiny hands that fit down the back of the back bank of cylinders

 

3 hours and counting, I'm finally on the final spark plug....

[Sloth in a bowl]

A couple of friends had this issue with a house mate, so when the happy couple finished they appluded and cheered loudly. She never came round again (well not louldly leastways).

[TimothyClaypole]

What's the passenger mirror on that Astra like? 

[chaseracer]

What one would you have though? For me it'd have to be the Mondeo.

 

None of them really groove my truffles.  The Rover, maybe - for that OMFGHGF suspense and (especially) that it seems to have spent some time in a river...

[HillmanImp]

room mate 

 

You share a room as them?

[vulgalour]

2 weeks and counting on the paperwork processing.  Best of all, after sending the information directly to the company that processes the paperwork for the letting agent, that company told us today that the letting agent hasn't forwarded all of the information and could we send it to them again directly so we can get this sorted out.

 

I've moved house several times, with several different estate agents and landlords.  This one is the biggest shower of shits I've ever encountered and the most expensive.  I'm pretty angry about it, especially after Dad informed me that the Council are coming on Friday to do the wiring and would I make upstairs ready for them?

 

No.  Just no.  At this point everyone can just fuck right off.

Final spark plug out.

 

 

I've left enough of my skin on the bulkhead by the back spark plugs that it may well act as a new layer of rust protection.

[twosmoke300]

The accord ones arent too bad. Try ones on an nsx or a tvr cerbera v8 .
