Thanks!

NOW, it feels like friday!

Next on my agenda...

ok...

... it might have taken me a minute to get into it but I'm laughing now!

/me goes to buy some more fire extinguishers....

What?

Thanks Simon!

Excuse me...

...how much?!

bye.

I too saw the one located in the...

... Shell(?) garage in Ascot!

I almost feel famous...

Seriously, how long is this going to last?

For the safety of...

"Does this still work when the thing's going flat out on the freeway, we wonder? For the safety of other drivers, we hope not."

...other road users, we hope it's not allowed on the "freeway".

Lube squad?

Need I say more?

Surely the...

...data protection act will come into play here somewhere.

PH, cause I'd love to see her ratings!

No blood? No hot coffee?.....

.... it just wouldn't be GTA without them!

I'd love a "Hot Coffee" with PH.

Should we...

... expect to see a sign of "0wn3d" being held up by back benchers?

Jeebus!

So these slugs will be impacting around 1700 m/s!?

That's not the correct attitude...

"However, when it comes to formal letters and even job applications, they need to get the correct spellings in place."

I fail to understand how, if a certain person cannot spell correctly in everyday life, that they should be allowed to produce one document (in this case a CV) to show literacy skills. I believe they need to use correct spelling and pronunciation in all forms of communication.

Maybe remove the 160 character limit for sms based messages to allow for full English to be used?

Maybe 5.5.6 (I might implement this on my server in fact) e-mails which contain more than x amount of spelling errors or abbreviated words like "yea" when "yes" would suffice with the same number of keystrokes.

Maybe a good old speech from a certain Microsoft exec before school everyday? "Spelling, spelling, spelling, spelling, spelling"... and so on and so forth.

In fact, I'm bored of this, where's my BOFH?

Wahooooo!

Good story to start the year on.

As ever, thanks Simon!!

Pub anyone?

@dave

lol. That is all.

"The only scenario I can concoct is if they vibrated at such a frequency as to resonate with the PC, causing it to fall off the desk and squash a particularly slow cat."

I'd really prefer

more work into making ssd's faster and more economically viable.

PH, she's also out of my price range.

But I like

windows vista x64...

I also like...

@Richard Lloyd

I know what you're saying, but why don't you also ask for a skoda with a ferrari engine in while you're at it?

@Daniel

The 1st release Wii-motes did not come with the silicon surround.

But still, retard!

The 'White' Nintendo helis should make this woman dissapear.

@Ted...

Too right!

"Exploits of MS08-067 have been reported" - Sounds like something from a bad hollywood zombie movie...

@ James Sherwood

indeed.

Wow...

Did anybody else notice the abuse of the word "about"...?

Tesco...

...made the exact same problem.

What I really want to know is

Will it blend?

Mine's the one with an AGP card... PCIe? What's that!?

Ouch!

Hence the reason I buy direct! What kind of money back can those people get? Anyone know? Sounds like a big fat nothing.

Mine's the one without the iPhone.

Refund? I wouldn't stop there!

I'd go as far as charging them for my time installing the magically-disappearing app and then charging them for my time spent scratching my head, wondering where my $1000 app went.

@Apple, you suck. This is all just a little too underhanded.

What I want to see is...

A selection of bluetooth headsets that sit well in a full face bike helmet.

I own a small bluetooth headset (the name and model eludes me) no wider than 15mm, yet still doesn't sit well in my helmet.

stop thinking outside the box

It's simple, the game has an 18 certification, blame the fat parents.

Flame, well, it's obvious isn't it?

uhm, quite a few flaws.

Granted, you MAY make the tank invisible, but that will only work when it's sat still. Have you ever seen a tank barreling across desert at 50mph? Are they planning on making the dust it kicks up invisible? There's so many things wrong with this, I give up.

Really?

How many carbon credits are they buying from other truly green companys?

or is this a case of outsourcing, thus not including 90% of the company?

PH, She has her own energy policy don't you know?

Prophet David Ike?

Dialing home you say?

where's David Ike when you need him?!

(not all at once...)

I was trying to drink my cold tea, you now owe me a new keyboard.

nice

Why did it take me three days to read this story? I loved the comments more than the story!

Why is this bad?

When aliens arrive and we gamers have to go save the planet with a crow-bar and the local Barney you'll thank us...

@Andy & @Patrick Boyd

read again. not if the envelope is in your possesion. It only counts whilst the mail is in transit with a mail carrier (not courier).

this one's pretty self-explanatory

Good one! Question is, when's the PFY getting Simon back for the job reference?

High Five for me.

It's stories like this that make me very glad I didn't go to College or University and skipped straight into the workplace.

@ The secret to IT

By Patrick

You've hit the nail on the head. I, luckily, worked this out when I was 18 and have lived by it since.

Cisco

never ordered memory from across the pond for some cisco devices?

now that is ridiculous!

PH knows all the best things come in large packages.

generator

It's hearing the generators kicking in outside to backup the ups' before the users see the plume of diesel...

It's seeing the lights dim one time and being called 'crazy' when you put on your tin foil hat.

PH, she also knows what to do when the lights dim. ;)

it's one thing to

Its one thing to shout abuse / slander at your spouse / friend / neighbour behind closed doors, but to broadcast it on such a massive medium is just not nice... maybe I'm just too polite.

I agree, free speech, but come on love, get back in the kitchen.

cest la vie

Life's a bitch, then they kill yours!

Web Audio

I hate any site with audio you cannot turn off! C'mon! Sort it!

Can nobody smell history repeating?

So, you're in Jail, you get accepted for this networking course, you then get a job in AUS as it's on their preferred skills list.

:)

Mine's the one with the visa, first come first served.

Cool? I don't think so.

<joke>Besides, what's so great about this? Even PH can drive a car!</joke>

Engineer...

Please tell me he took the lift. :)

@Elmer Phud

brilliant.

Top class!

Epic Fail : Daily Mail.

Mines the power armour with the water purifier.

Helipad?

Maybe a Helipad they could launch things off? :) we all want one of those.

Maybe even use it as a driving range with some less than legal golf balls (I can guarantee AC knows what I'm talking about!!).

simply opt out?

Almost everyday you have to opt-out of something or other so what's one more?

PH, because her data's already been farmed...

nice one

This happened to me about 2 months ago, didn't get out of it so easily though.

PH because she knows all about "Could be 20 years, could be 20 minutes"...
