            Just how many sockpuppets do you intend to use to -ve rep me, you anonymous, cowardly wanker?

            Is it because you are just the sort of piece of tulip that would intentionally install a pale carpet in a tenant's kitchen to stitch them up?

            Or just really, really sad?

              Stop being a ******* bedwetter!

              I couldn't neg rep you(again) so I thought I'd post this.

              Btw, stop looking at your rep!

                People who say...

                "I trust that 'X' has been done"

                ...especially in the workplace, and via a cowardly email

                e.g. "I trust that <what I expect you to have done, but in reality know that you weren't even considering doing> has been done"

                The worst use of this expression is when it is by someone who has no authority to say or demand such things, but expects everything to be 'just so'. Usually somebody who spends far too much time organising the coloured pens in their desk drawer, or drawing process diagrams in Visio for meaningless and menial tasks.

                Bunch of s!

                  Would it be ok to ask why they would expect this to be done? Against what meeting minutes / programme?
