time 8,626 Posted February 10, 2011 "Pre", as in pre-planned, pre-order, pre-owned and such. The act of planning requires that its done before action, otherwise its not planned. I either order something or I don't. Even if its not immediately available, I'm still ordering it! Pre-owned, meaning owned previously (as in second hand) is just the same as owned. Its up there with using 'of' instead of 'have'! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a Good Thing then that Really Fat People don't travel much, as they would eventually get so massive that they form a singularity, sucking in all matter that gets within their event horizon. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted February 21, 2011 The Diamond Jubilee emblem. I think it is ok, but I seem to be in the minority. It is better than the 2012 Olympic logo, and much cheaper to design (approx £0.00). Any opinions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted March 5, 2011 Bad programming. As you may know, I'm a computer programmer, but unfortunately not working as one at the moment. The job I do now involves a web based application, written by imbeciles for imbeciles. For reasons I don't quite understand, every now and then this application, on closing, emits the following error message: While this message has poetic qualities that Zen buddhists may appreciate, it's not exactly helpful. Of course, this amusing little error is just annoying, as it doesn't do more damage than stun the operator. The bad thing is that the same program regularly, but unpredictably, kills Internet Explorer, putting all work done in that session in an unrecoverable state. The people who wrote that, reportedly for something like EUR 100,000, ought to be flogged in public. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terminator 13 Posted March 15, 2011 F*cking God freaks!!!! (Here's an example) While I'm on a roll.........I have an abiding HATRED for ignorant twats who believe that ONLY THEY know the "great truth" about God etc. And, therefore, I submit Jehovah's Witnesses to Room 101. What the f*ck is going on?????? Their booklets are aimed at mental ages of 8 or less, yet they hand out these books as entry to their sect. These books (aimed at the mentally-limited - or 8 years old) purport to discuss all aspects of life and science - including the Big Bang - but after a neutral introduction, each article swiftly moves to the absurd conclusion that God is responsible for everything. My experience of these nasty people is that they dismiss the Catholic Church for the child molestation problems, but will not admit that their cult is even more obscene. While slagging off the Catholic deviant priests, they are in complete denial that their man-led organisation is, per capita, more likely to abuse children than their "enemy". I had to suffer a couple of JWs at home and, given I wasn't amenable to them or their presence, I was asked if I would like to discuss thing with them. I said "I'd be happy to.....if they listened to what I said. I said "A discussion is an opportunity to present your point and hear an alternative view, which may change your original opinion" Sadly, the lady said "That's OK. I'd be happy to argue with you just so I keep repeating my faith in God"...........JEEZ!!!!!!!!! The good news is that Russia are about to ban Jehovah's Witnesses in their country.....as they are a money-making cult. Strange that the UK is slower than Russia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strange that the UK is slower than Russia I don't normally advocate violence, but in her case... On the subject of Jehovah's Witnesses, many years ago when I was working in the states, a couple knocked at my apartment door so I invited them in for a chat. I don't know if I converted them or not, but they never came back after the third visit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terminator 13 Posted March 15, 2011 What you need are some Mormon underpants. Worn on the outside they will see off any predatory JWs. Thanks Godot. Unfortunately, the "wimmin" that accrete around these mad cults are repulsive. But I will bear you wise words for the future. Their failure to have (retain) a man seems to propel these simpletons into a Man-driven cult....where only men can be in control. I know...it doesn't make sense....

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted March 15, 2011 F*cking God freaks!!!! (Here's an example) I usually recommend a stiff dose of reality as a cure for stupidity, but I doubt reality has entered that dweeb's mind in the last few years. This is your mind on God. While I'm on a roll.........I have an abiding HATRED for ignorant twats who believe that ONLY THEY know the "great truth" about God etc.And, therefore, I submit Jehovah's Witnesses to Room 101. I was raised with an attitude of tolerance towards nutters, but it can be hard. Johova's Witnesses, Scientologists, Christian fanatics, Halibut fanatics, Holocaust deniers, voters for Geert Wilders, the list goes on. I think the same mental processes that allow humans to work effectively in groups, together with our imagination and love for storymaking, make us vulnerable to viral infections like religion and other ideologies. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarolAnn 926 Posted March 18, 2011 I was driving down the street today and pulled in behind a car with a bumper sticker that said "God is Pro-Life." Amazingly enough, the only thing that crossed my mind was all the times god killed people in the bible. So I have decided that the only time god is pro-life is between conception and birth, and I'm not so sure about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terminator 13 Posted April 1, 2011 Right - I'm putting ants in Room 101 - since I don't want them in my kitchen. The little flockers are going to get a real kicking tomorrow afternoon. The dishwasher is coming out and the backboard under the sink. I'll be aiming to kill hundreds and they best understand - move out - or die! Every year, the ants start to pour through my doors etc. The way I see it, this fresh brood is checking out it's territory (and that'll happen yearly). However, after a few days (when the numbers build up), I splatter the lot of them.....daily. They soon learn their boundaries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nearly every sodding morning there are little shiny pathways on the breadboard. God knows where the bastards are getting in. I used to have the same problem in my old house - on many occasions I would stumble down in the early hours with a raging hangover to get a drink, and step on one - FUCKING GROSS is the only term I can describe having fresh dead slug between your toes. They would also find their way into the open washing machine and then get spun-dried on the kids school shirts. Slugs are the most disgusting creature on this earth, they are pointless and should all be set on fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
