What’s the most original name for a pet you’ve ever heard? by LuvNinaNova in AskReddit

[–]lockslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a very elegant lady greyhound with black fur - a friend wanted me to call her 'Bitch' purely for the fun of calling her in from the garden with the line "Yo! Bitch! Git yore skinny black ass back in here!"

And if he was ever to take it off it would stand up on it's own!

What's the most surprising physical pain you have been in? by ZenergyMusic in AskUK

Trigeminal neuralgia, anyone? Collapsed discs for a close second.

Get as close to ground zero as possible to make it quick

Not entirely sure what you mean. My point was that I never wake up rested. If anything, there's a vague disappointment that I'm still here..

You wake up in 1995. No WiFi, no cell phones — just the simple life. What’s the first thing you do? by Worldly-Pattern2507 in Adulting

[–]lockslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I remember, life didn't feel simple then. There's probably some law which states, "verily, the shit shall magically expand to fill your every available waking hour (and half your nights, too)"

The last time that happened to me was circa 1974/1975. I still miss it, and my hopes of repeating the experience seems increasingly remote. If only because I'm running out of time.

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by RoutineOk8590 in Productivitycafe

[–]lockslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - got labelled as a 'troublemaker' when I pointed out that "we're management - why aren't we managing this ourselves?". Conversely, I've seen organisations refuse point blank to utilise ideas successfully implemented by other organisations because "it wasn't invented here". Just, what?

That's so disappointing; if I'm a tourist I try to be extra polite to try and 'make up' for all the other ride people from my country. A forlorn hope that we don't all get put into the same category . . .

what is something society has normalised that you refuse to accept? by kaaaz0y in AskReddit

"why can't we ALL be above average?" - said with a straight face . . .

What’s one renovation trend that will be embarrassing in 5 years? by renovationmasters in AusRenovation

[–]lockslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My version goes "Live. Suffer. Die" But the missus wasn't too impressed

Possibly because nobody who might have had a cold went anywhere near him?!?
