The grumpy thread


Recommended Posts

I've known elderly relatives who have smoked and lasted into their 80's. It seems a bit hit and miss with it, I'm not sure how someone can smoke for most of their lives and seem to last well into their 80's, yet someone can get cancer in their 30's after smoking for 14 years. I gave up for three years, then my missus started smoking, and then I started smoking at the start of the year, argh!

I don't drink and I'm a vegetarian, and I'm currently exercising like a bastard, so I can offset it with 10 cigz a day, until I see how stupid and expensive it is.

I'm a vegetarian

I think that's more likely to kill you than smoking and drinking.

 

I have yet to meet a healthy veg. Always got something wrong with 'em. I've got so fed up with it in the past I now avoid vegetarian women like the plague...

Some of them still like a bit of meat you know.

Try getting a blow-job off a veggie then.......................... Unless they like cheese of course.

That's the first one I had for ages (a year I think). That's why I felt a bit 'queer' for the next couple of hours.

 

I've felt great since 1996 after becoming veggie. I gave up because I've never liked the texture of meat. I've never plied it on anyone, I always get meat eaters trying to ply it on me though. 'Don't you get the urge to just have a bacon buttie'. :lol::?

My ex was a veggie. She was also from Oxford and quite posh. I think these three factors are synonymous with relationship FAIL.

Well what a load of bollocks today is turning out to be. My housemate had a leaving party, which in itself is ok. He and three others are Czech, which again is fine but with one exception they make no attempt to speak or learn English and you normally get a large group of them in the front room speaking their native language. Now without wanting to come off Gary Bushell, if you're in a country that speaks English you should really attempt to speak it. It makes socialising impossible and you can't help but feel uncomfortable as you never know exactly what is being said. So there was no point joining in as it was a dozen people speaking Czech. One of them also knocked on my door to tell me I'd left the microwave door open which was wasting electricity. This also annoyed me as it's so petty and uses about 5w in a house with 7 people in it

 

I was woken then up twice last night, at 3am and 5am by the remaining guests sitting outside my window and talking in a different language for quite some time. Cut to this morning and I have to go to work and my car decides not to start again. Took it to a garage who had it running fine for all of 2 days. Turns over, is on the verge of firing but just will not go. Called the AA when it happened yesterday, patrolman tried it and it started first time. Today it took about 15 minutes, including the break I had to take to calm down. Neighbours will doubtless avoid me as there was plenty of colourful language. Think I may have damaged my door by kicking it shut as well.

 

So I was late for work, except there is no one from my team here so nobody to talk to. Plus it's really busy and I have to go through it all again tomorrow

Shamelessly robbed off another forum:-

The good news:

It was a normal day in Sharon Springs Kansas , when a Union Pacific crew boarded a

loaded coal train for the long trek to Salina.

The bad news:

Just a few miles into the trip a wheel bearing became overheated and melted, letting a metal support drop down and grind on the rail, creating white hot molten metal droppings spewing down to the rail.

The good news:

A very alert crew noticed smoke about halfway back in the train and immediately stopped the train in compliance with: "The Rules".

The bad news:

The train stopped with the hot wheel over a wooden bridge with creosote ties and trusses.

 

The crew tried to explain to higher-ups, but were instructed not to move the train!

 

They were instructed "The Rules" prohibit moving the train when a part is defective!

REMEMBER, "RULES IS RULES"!

Don't ever let common sense get in the way of a good disaster......

So, this is now the most watched video on youtube ever with nearly 250 million views....

 

 

WHY? It's just some horrible american brat with a poncey haircut singing a distinctly average song.

 

YUK.

 

Lady Gaga "Beautiful Romance" is second with 247 million.

 

This advert for a Renault 14 is lagging slightly behind with 690 views.....

 

 

CRIMINAL!!!

691 and counting, for I am seemingly the first to click the link.

 

I can't believe that all you Autoshiters have passed up the opportunity to watch a shonky few seconds of Renault 14 video. Surely t'is Autoshite heaven?

CUNTS.

 

Some bastard has shot my window with an air rifle. Twice. :evil:

WTF???

 

What's that area behind your garden, is it a park or something?

Best ring the plod and tell them someone's just been firing a gun on there.... they'll have the chopper and armed response out pretty quick. Don't tell 'em it was an air rifle, imply it was live ammo.

 

Pretty soon you'll have a gurning member of the SWAT team firing a taser at some 13-year-old hidden in a storm drain.

This one deserves to have many more hits

Damaged happened yesterday - had all the excitement with plod. Not that they know who did it.

I agree, It's fookin awful, WTF does a 12 year old know about love anyway?, and this comment by some brain dead viewer summed it up for me.

 

He has performed for the President of the United States, he has a Number 1 album, that proves he is talented.

Yeah course it does love.

If the President in question is George 'Dubya' Bush, should we be at all surprised?

Is that Justin Bieber? I'm not clicking on it because that would increase the views by one.

 

I have no opinion about him because I have never seen or heard him, and I intend to keep it that way. Talking, even negatively, about Justin Bieber, or X Factor or Kerry Katona etc. makes you part of their publicity machine.

On Tuesday, I lost the USB cable bit of the charger to my new smartphone. I suspect it is on the first level of the Livery Street/Snow Hill multi-storey in Birmingham, if anyone finds it. As it is a HTC, none of the high street phone shops do replacements, so I await a small parcel from teh InterWebz.

 

On Friday, some myopic fuckwit drove down the side of the Blingo in a car park in Cheadle. No doubt the note containing their insurance details blew away in the stiff breeze. At least the oatcakes I brought back were good.

 

On the way back from said Moorlands shithole, the offside front spring snapped, so I have no car until Wednesday. Unless Domestic Management lends me her Panda?

100HP goodness - thank you my lovely 8)

I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment, I've been watching ebay & car&classic all day incase something pops up, This afternoon i have to go to the inlaws :roll: so about 1 1/2 hours later i get time to have a quick look on car&classic again to see that a 1970 Mk 2 Cortina 1300 in white had been posted a hour earlier, and that it looks like good condition with a years ticket and rare bench seats and column change all for £995 and it's only in Essex.

 

http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C169982/

 

I quickly ring the owner up, it's near Chelmsford so not far, Belonged to his dad who's just died and just wants to get rid, Sadly though there was a bloke just about to come round to view it, He rings me back 25 mins later, It's just sold for the full asking price.

 

I'm gutted :cry:

TWATS on other forums claiming my V6 into Astra is 'just a strate swop m8'.

Scuse my language, but is it fuck. I've been down to the scrapyard twice (and seeing as I have no car, and it's in Ellesmere Port, 15 miles away, that's a massive pain in the arse), to get parts that nobody kindly informed me of.

Now I have to go AGAIN to cut out a piece of exhaust pipe as the pipe on the V6 engine doesn't fit the pipe on my car. None of the smart arses 'eazy job m8' BULLSHITTERS told me about this. :evil::evil:

What is it with people asking advice on forums, then people giving advice that they know nothing about. Are they f*cking sadists?

Posted

Dave, I can probably get hold of the lad who used to work with my son who did an exact same engine swap in his Mk3, he could advise with what's needed.

 

I watched him arse about with the radiator, didn't look easy at all but he got in.

 

Regarding the E.P scrappy I'm working literally just across the fence from it this week so if you need owt collecting just let me know chief.
