bleeding air from a shut down generator…… piece of shit, just fucking run
not what I want first thing on a Mundy morning.
just because you can get a cheaper generator from china, without all the bells and whistles, doesn’t mean it’s cost effective, I wish people would listen

You could just hang out in the terminal...that'd be fun? Or fly your special lady over and not sleep at the hotel. Or go to the casino and win big. There's so many fun options...

As someone who has done the casino thing for a 9 hour window between flights 10/10 don't recommend.

Took a week to clear the Ireland jet lag while over there.

Now wide awake at 3am on my first day back, had a catch up with news and shit on my phone for an hour or so... no chance of more sleep.

Brekky time :rolleyes:

Do your amenities breaks normally take an hour, and your targeting ability must be pretty good. How often do you replace your phone?

Yeah imo it's just annoying dickheads looking to flip shit for a quick buck. Probably spam 50 people a day with that question and see if they can find someone desperate enough.

I was selling a car once, and among the 'what's your lowest price' texts I gone one offering something like $7k less than I was asking.

I ignored it, and a few weeks later got a text asking why I'd ignored him, and he got quite sniffy when I told him the reason.

Well this depends, were you selling a 1992 Nissan Pulsar with hail damage, or a pristine - genuinely like-new - Bugatti Chiron?

Or was it jut the principle of it?

LTIH - my phone repeatedly auto-corrects “were” to “we’re”. Given modern-day phones constantly scan for and assemble data about you, why has it not figured out that I am a very solitary individual who has little use for the word “we’re”!

Had a special week. A rant.

First. I allowed myself to get scammed and lost the credit card linked to paypal and all things overseas. Got an email from a company in the UK I bought a car part from. Attachment was a screen shot of the invoice page. Sorry we charged you twice please log in so we can process the refund. Usually I don't click on links in an email but it was midnight and I was tired and on the way to bed. Because it was a UK company thought ah well might as well do this. Didn't check if I had been charged double. Mistake #1. Didn't go to the favourites and open the website there. Mistake #2. Opened up the link on my pad which doesn't show the address. Mistake #3. Followed the prompts which were all true to the company pages. Mistake #4. Then as I entered the three little numbers realised I paid by paypal and went to the bank ap and cancelled the card. Fuckwit. Anyway no issues but I am without a back up card for bits from unknown regions for a week or more. I emailed the company concerned as they had obviously been hacked just politely saying we received an email with this screen shot and they should check out their data. Did I:
1. receive an email back saying sorry we have been hacked and here is a £2,000,000 gift voucher, sorry for you trouble
2. receive an email apologising for the inconvenience and that they were working on improving their security
3. receive an email thanking me for bringing this to their attention
4. nothing

Second. Product surveys. So we are having a problem with mozzies here at the moment. No standing water other than the stuff falling from the sky so a bit unusual in the quantity of the little fuckers. I am using the standard brute force techniques because I don' want any sprays in the house. Anyway a bit of gogglingting and there are non chemical things so I bought one locally made brand. Only available on the web so that was a pita after above but I transferred some $ to the paypal linked bank account which usually has $9.20 in it and all good. Same day shipped. Then next day we know you haven't received the product yet buy please fill out this quick survey so we understand your thought process. Now I am happy to leave positive info for prospective buyers and this seemed innocuous enough.
Why did you buy this product? To commit mosquito genocide
How did you find out about this product? Web
Which competitors did you look at before deciding on xxxx? All of them
What method are you using now? Brute force
What exact method are you using? (What the? OK) Small yield nuclear weapons
Why do you want to try something else? Neighbours complained about the levels of fallout, particularly the Strontium 90
Select 3 points that made you want our product: (Can only select one) non toxic...
List 3 things that made you want to buy our product: If the previous question fucking worked you wouldn't need this question
What will you do with the product? Charge it up and switch it on?
How has the product performed so far? I haven't fucking got it yet
Has the product met your requirements? I haven't fucking got it yet
If the product meets your expectations will you tell family and friends? Probably and if it doesn't I will send it back to you with an essay on what a piece of shit it is
Any comments? Why ask people to fill out a survey knowing they do not have the product and yet have questions about the product performance?

Thirdly: Ignorant people in cafes. Went up to the coast yesterday to deliver the timber I had planed for my nephew. Wife and I grabbed a coffee at a regular place. People on the next table started looking for sugar, reached across our table and grabbed the little bottle of sugar on our table. Fucking what? So I said yeah fucking help yourself. That just got a look from the bloke who grabbed it. Their conversation was oh I will just have half a teaspoon, I am trying to cut down. Then the sugar was dropped back on the table. So I picked it up and tightened the lid. You know TIGHTENED the lid. Seconds later old mate reaches across to grab the sugar again because you know half isn't enough for anyone. This time at least he said gotta grab that sugar again mate. So he took it. She couldn't open the lid. He couldn't open the lid. "Jesus Sophie how tight did you do the lid up?" They went and grabbed another sugar. When we left I reached onto their table, picked up the sugar and loosened the lid. Fucking ignorant pricks.

Good, quick thinking on the card. You were mere seconds away from buying me some flash BCA brakes. Them's the breaks.
