The grumpy thread

[Junkman]

I've learnt from bitter experience that it's not a good idea to dip your pen in the company ink...

^^

This.

 

No further exceptions to this rule.

[Junkman]

Whore!

 

Remember when I was about 16* I was in the local nightclub and asked a row of about six girls standing next to each other if theyd get off with me. They ALL said NO.

 

(Whores!!)

 

You need to learn the difference between a whore, and a bitch.

A whore sleeps with everyone. A bitch sleeps with everyone except you.

Just had an update on the sphere removal from the spare axle parts and it looks like they're probably fucked.  The pivot shaft is seized in so firmly it might as well be welded in place and there's rot holes in the lip the rubber dust cover fits on which might compromise the functionality of the sphere.  I might have paid for some very expensive scrap metal.

[myglaren]

Absolutely!  I give Facebook, Twitter etc. the big swerve.  Communications limited to message boards and email.

 

I read the other day in The Independent an article by Mark Zuckerberg's sister that puts it into the right kind of perspective.

 

ETA:  Seems to have moved so fast the quote fell off

Negative Creep, the girl isn't called Deborah is she? And do you drive a brown Hyundai Elantra? And have you fucked a giant fish lately?

 

Cheer up! She sounds like a cow anyway.

Around 10,000 people may have died in just one area of the Philippines hit by Typhoon Haiyan, according to officials.

 

Most outrageous death toll claim?

 The Independent article by Mark Zuckerberg's sister.

 

Everyone born since 1985, and some who weren't, should read that article, and consider it carefully.

WHY CAN I NOT BUY EUTHYMOL ANYWHERE

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

WHY CAN I NOT BUY EUTHYMOL ANYWHERE

 

 

 

Dear Mr Pablo, 

 

Thank you for your recent email regarding our Euthymol® toothpaste. 

 

European Regulations and standards are continually evolving and as a result of the new European Cosmetics Regulation, many companies and raw material suppliers are required to update their documentation to meet the more detailed requirements. In some cases products and formulations may also need updating. 

 

Johnson & Johnson Ltd, the makers of Euthymol, has temporarily stopped the supply of Euthymol toothpaste while the product is being reformulated. As a result, some consumers may find that product availability is limited at this time. The new formulation of Euthymol is expected to be available in the first half of 2014. We would like to reassure consumers that they can continue to use existing supplies of Euthymol. The current formulation is safe and has a long history of safe use. 

 

Assuring you of our best attention. 

 

Kind regards, 

 

Natalia Bond 

Assistant Consumer Support

tl;dr: they're going to ruin it

Much distress about my old profile who I apparently named after a war criminal (sorry, didn't realise the connection, just liked the wheels of the same name, my WW2 Pacific Rim history isn't what it should be) and that a picture of a poppy field posted on Rememberance Sunday means I'm making a statement about opium production. 

Right. Can my old profile be deleted completely, please?

I'll keep my thoughts to myself from now on.

WHY CAN I NOT BUY EUTHYMOL ANYWHERE

I think that "Savers" still have it.

[KruJoe]

Can my old profile be deleted completely?

Does that mean all your old posts would be deleted too?

'DO NOT LIKE'

[dugong]

'DO NOT LIKE'

Hopefully!

[vulgalour]

If they 'reformulate' Euthymol into some Fresh Mint bollocks I shall not be pleased.  It's just about the only toothpaste out there that doesn't taste of mint, and I can't stand mint toothpastes.  Why change it?  I've not died from using it for the past 30-odd years and neither have a lot of other people.

[Angrydicky]

Just ripped a hole in my best brown trousers on a sharp edge of the inner wing while squeezing past the Maestro. And even with a freshly charged battery, spark and fuel, it still won't start. All old cars are shit, etc.

[vulgalour]

Have you checked your points?  Of course you've checked your points.  Is anyone else imagining that those trousers are corduroy flares?

[TimothyClaypole]

That were a bit too long as well so have frayed at the back edges.

 

 

(rather than getting them taken up by your mum).

[cobblers]

bag of shit waxoyl sprayer lance thing, total toss and really more effective at coating everything you don't want in waxoyl. Every time I use it, I swear I'll throw the fucker away when I'm done.

[Des]

Euthymol's been euthanized.

I once ripped the whole front of some really nice cords while collecting a nose cone from Birmingham, it wouldn't fit in the van and I had to strap it to the roof, ripped my pants from bollocks to toes doing so.

[Angrydicky]

This is what I use. Much better than waxoyl, as it's a very thin film that easily penetrates where you need it to go. The 360 degree sprayer is superb as well. Two cans is enough to do an average size car.

Preparing to relist GS on eBay. 
It's gonna end up as spares or fragged, I can feel it.  Not that anyone gives a stuff. 

On the flip side, someone on here has bought that GS Pallas with a GSA engine and box. Watch that get a million hits \ likes a second, just you wait. 

[Cavcraft]

Euthymol sounds like the sort of thing you'd find beside your bed in Hotel Dignitas, or a dodgy chemical.

 

Jon: I had a quite look earlier and couldn't find out how to delete your account, but I'll keep trying if you like?

here's the yin to the toothpaste discussion yang:

 

I ate a kilo of Liquorice Allsorts (1x 800g tin + 1 190g bag = shame and unwell)

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I've just been down the garage trying to put a new timing belt on wor lass's Astra. Got it all to bits alright, opened the box with the new bits in, its the wrong flipping cam belt isn't it. Spent the next hour or so putting it all back together. FUCKING EURO CAR PARTS WANKERS! EVERYTHING I BUY FROM YOU IS THE WRONG BASTARD ONE

[cobblers]

rather than improve their own stores, GSF just opened eurocarparts and purposely make every customer interaction as frustrating as possible, so that GSF seem fantastic in comparison. That way we are just happy that the parts they supply are anything like correct, and willing to ignore the fact that they fall to pieces after about 3 months.

[twosmoke300]

Much better off getting friendly with your local factors. They usually care a bit more.

[Cavcraft]

Please. That would be top. 

 

 

Right, I had a look and because I think someone (you?) like deactivated it, I can't seem to be able to remove it all. The only possible answer (I'll ask Dave though, as he's the whizz) I can think of is for you top reactivate it and then hopefully ones of us can sack it off. The other way would be to remove it post by post, sod that for a caper!

[Cheggers]

If I'd caught my crotch on a sharp edge, I'd be checking my points too!!
