Life is riddled with a procession of minor impediments

[Radbacker]

spammers jamming up the board.
do they really think flooding a board with nosensical posts with a link on the bottom is actually goiung to get them any extra clicks on their poxy friggen sites.
F$#K OFF.  prom dresses thats really what we'd be looking for on this site, i'd understand if it was something us nerdy types would buy (you know Hot Russian girlfriends or some such) but Prom Dresses come-on.

Got hit with an unexpected £104 council tax bill in the same week I received a £124 income tax rebate. Pissflaps.

Ooh, Master luke...





He's such a whore, he'll sell anything between his legs.

The boss has announced that there will be four redundancies out of a work force of eighteen. Cue rabid backstabbing and suddenly discovered work related injuries. 

And the people doing this? The four who've taken the piss for years and know their time is up. What an amazing coincidence. Quite amusing but at the same time a pain in the arse, I'll be glad when it's all done with.

I'll be fine, 'cause I'm awesome.

My house has been invaded by a mouse. 

I'm 90% certain it's just the one, and fairly certain it's not a pregnant female. Grrr, hassle.

I also had a mousey vist recently. The bastard chewed the corner off every single stock cube in the box. If it's just finished ONE before unwrapping the next, I wouldn't have minded much!

[Mardroid]

I actually like mice!

Not that I'm offering to provide alternate lodgings. I don't think my Dad's wife would appreciate that.

If you're lucky it will die of hypertension or kidney failure before you have to poison it!

I'm in the office so dare not open the 'underware' thread.

Similarly for me. And the News and Weather Presenter thread.



I remember teh Great Mouse War of the Millenium in our house.  You could hear the little sods running up and down the walls there so many of them.   I kept using humane mouse traps (got rid of 14 mice over ten day period) and eventually had to give in and use poison when they started crawling and eating stuff in Tiny Tips cupboard under the stairs crib. Tough decision for a vegetarian.


I have since discovered that you need to take them at least FIVE miles away from your house (not just down the hill and across the burn) to stop the little fekkers coming back.  So I may have taken the same mouse out 14 times.  Oh and use peanut butter in the traps; it's harder for them to pick up and walk off with.

Answerphone messages that just say "please give me a call". What is the point?

FIVE MILES?! Jebus, I was only taking them down the allotments during my own Mouse-o-geddon years ago. I was ejecting the same ones again and again by the sound of that. Mouse infestation isn't much fun. And I'm afraid if you see one, there's very probably a lot more.
