ClientCo closing early today due to civil unrest

[MarillionFan]

My office is near Soho and we were sent home at 5 pm. There is an increased nervousness about what could happen today. My guess would be that the thugs would have spent today disposing off the looted stuff and will be busy snorting cocaine than going out to cause trouble.

Shouldn't you be wandering round the streets with a baseball bat ready for these little bastards.

"Taking cocaine makes users feel on top of the world. Its effect is like the stimulant ‘amphetamines’ (speed) but is stronger and doesn't last as long. People taking it feel wide-awake, confident and on top of their game."


"Cocaine is a stimulant, so it can raise the body’s temperature, make the heart beat faster and stave off feelings of hunger."

"The effects of crack smoking are virtually immediate, peaking for about two minutes and lasting for only about 10 minutes. For snorted coke there is a slower time to peak but the effects still don’t last that long (around 20-30 minutes)."

Apparently the shopkeepers in Thorton Hearth have boarded up their shops, emptied them of stock and fled with the residents.

What are the shopkeepers going to do with the residents? Sell 'em into slavery?

It's complete chaos here in Clerkenwell. There's bits everywhere, nothing works, I honestly don't see how such extensive damage can be repaired

I might revert back to the version in SVN and start this refactoring again now I've worked out how not to do it

It's not "Civil Unrest", it's theivery. Shoot the ******* lot of them.

Convenient label for the lefties out there though, eh?

It's the one the government was using in an attempt to maintain their state of denial and stay on holiday

This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'

The loony left have been calling it the 'London uprising'

That would be following the London Banker Ejaculation of 2008.

Reminds of the Kula Shaker S.O.S. By kula shaker lyrics, cough:

It's 2 o'clock
Blood transfusion, revolution, satellites on Mars
Man became the spawn of Satan, driving 'round in cars
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate
This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me
Every time I turn, a microscopic worm is telling me, he's it
Dressed in the robes of cosmic ego, crawling 'round in [Incomprehensible]
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate
This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me
This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me

One of the few times I agree with Churchill, apart from it's thievery.

Not this office though, just the mothership over in Belgravia

Ah, but I've just seen a TV report of a burned out shop in Croydon. 15 jobs possibly at stake.

You could start calling these "New Labour's" cuts.

[Sysman]

I'm sure if you put that on twitter some chavs will come and help you out there.
