Reply to: Is there anybody else on this board....

[cykophysh39]

is there anybody else out there NOT on drugs? After reading this through to end I still don't know what this thread is going on about?

Like the Verve once said "The Drugs Don't work"

......who is not a victim of this insidious PC oppression that seems to be all the rage now?

The poor wee lambs on here seem to be awfully upset and not a wee bit afraid wot with them being such a bunch of victims.

Something should be done about it anyways - it all sounds terribly upsetting.

Victim?

Being a victim means buying into this daft PC rubbish - life is hard, get over it!

Not as mad as all this "organise your own holiday on the internet" malarky is making me.

Every year I make the same sodding mistake and make it too complicated and too tw@ting late

Just book a flight to some random country and take your wallet and a spare pair of undies

[Rantor]

Spending too much time with your PC has apparently sent it mad !

A life ?

That's easy enough for you to say - you've got loads.

Strangely, having a life might be my problem as I have deffo not been paying enough attention by the look of things.

Back to cheap-flight hunting for me now....

...I feel must be missing out on something

A life ?

[Rantor]

He's got it in for the PC's now. What have they ever done to you ?

Nothing (I think) but I feel must be missing out on something - apprarently they have gone mad.

Yeah mine oppresses me sometimes, eventually I have enough and do a fresh windows install.

I was on the phone today with a tech engineer in Paris who insisted on speaking en Anglais but was bemused when I kept cracking up every time he mentioned the instructions he was sending me "on how to take a dump"

Oh those foreigners and their wacky ways

On a vaguely similar vein I've finally convinced some dutch speaking colleagues that the correct phrase in english for a weekend break is "Cottaging" - Not Big, Not Clever but I had a good chortle anyway

And the French laugh when we tell them our yoghurt contains preservatifs.

How about, instead of a fag break, they go outside for a "felch".

Luckily in Denmark they may understand a lot of English, but subtle nuances like asking if a young lady is peanut smuggling are totally lost. Unless of course the young lady in question was playing a double bluff, which is possible.

I'm not a victim. What have those nasty PC people done to you now?

Nowt as far as I know but they seem to be causing a load of guys on here no end of grief.

Maybe I'm in denial and need to recognise my own victimhood. Is it too late to sign up for the nonce-maimers or whatever we got up to this week?
