Life is riddled with a procession of minor impediments

[Definitely Not Mister Pops]

Good luck finding any of the feckin things. It would appear Walls have developed a stranglehold on frozen tasty treats.

King Pops, you'd be from Northern Ireland too then I take it?  I'm in the mood for a Pear Picking Porky now too but stuck in work... oh!  Or maybe a Joker!

The Pear Pickin' Porky was always a classic hangover cure...

Quite effective too

Frack, haven't had one in yonks. Must get some. Z

Monday: Buy myself a nice new wallet.

Wednesday: Somehow manage to lose brand new wallet in the 20m between the office and local shop. First wallet I've ever lost.

Ah, the old: "where did I put that memory stick?" routine.

When will I learn?

Paypal have "limited" (frozen) my account because of European laws meant to prevent money laundering.  Apparantly what I should have done was close the account when I approached the threshold amount of money that can pass through it, but then open another account using the same details and then keep doing that indefinitely.  Erm...

I've lost the book I was reading (MaddAdamm) and the 35 year old bookmark in it

Nothing I can do about it, but the Daily Mail have put a picture of my wife and 1yr old son on their website. The fucking Daily Mail. Grrr!

Stick a copy of the the 'Daily Heil' in a pile of Horseshit, take a photo and then ask them to print that instead.

The scary thing is that they probably would print that photo, accompanied by a 20-word headline and an insistence that the photo is "hilarious".  And then another article explaining how the last one had gone viral.

What have they done this for?!

[Banners]

They're in a screen grab from a video on YouTube, so I accept that the images are already on the 'net (albeit in video format). I have to be be pragmatic – other people have it far worse, and the story is overwhelmingly positive, even if some of the comments aren't (somewhat predictably).

It's just a bit of a shame that, in general, media outlets are allowed to use – and in a very tiny way, profit from – pictures of 1yr old babies without asking. And, in this specific case, it's just a bit of a shame that it's the fucking Daily Mail.

Maybe we should all copyright/trademark our faces. Then, when something like this happens, we can charge the buggers!

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

Surely if someone uses a picture of you without your permission you can complain to them asking them to take it down? The DM can replace it with a licensed stock photo or one from their own library that would suit their illustration needs just as well?
