    Oh WALKING. Sorry, misread that.

    Not quite - tossing a coin adds a possible element of regret, which helps you decide what to do.

    As tomorrow never comes, whatever you put off to tomorrow is never going to get done

    Always put off till tomorrow, what you've already put off since yesterday.

    No "Erm, dunno" option?

    Anyway, hope whatever it is works out well.

    So this thread was a complete waste of time. Whodathunkit.

    At least the neg rep option is still available.

    EDIT : Oh no it isn't. Meant to hit cancel and hit submit by mistake. Silly me.

    I just received your e-mail and, I'm afraid the position has been offered to someone else because you were a dithering cretin. Actually, we were never going to offer you the position, but we thought we'd string you along
