    Something impossible anyways.

    Well I have another one , for CM. It's almost impossibule.

    When saying please, try thinking at them very hard, like telepathically 'just do it you fkng retard'
    Thank you, telepathically, is 'Fck you,anus face'



    "Fck you, anus face" thats my new saying!

    Me too especially when you've held a door open for someone, most people have the good grace to look embarassed though.

    JFDI!
    Nothing to do with my job really except the stupid bint this morning was beyond rude. We're all busy but 99.9% of people have the manners to say thanks.

      I did a stint at Parliament many moons ago. Just 'below' Big Ben is a computer room with corridors & large fire doors in all directions. It can be used as a short cut out of the House of Commons if you want to avoid the main melee in the lobby.

      I was walking through with a couple of coffees when then Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott comes striding down the corridor after Question Time which he has stood in for. There was about 8 aides with him.

      I opened the door(holding two coffees mugs in one hand) and he just stormed through without a word, then another, then another. All the time, I'm holding coffee and all the time not a glance or a word.

      The last guy was going to do the same so I thought bollocks & I let go of the door just before the last one got there. Being a heavy door, it swung closed and slammed him into the wall.

      "Sorry about that!" I said and walked off

                Prescott might have thought you were brown rod, or red-stick or some other flunky.
