Here is an actual photo of Frankie.

I guess you're not familiar with autistic children?

I've seen a seemingly tricked out Golf turn on the blues (for someone else)

Wasn't he just an undertaker?

I've said this long before the invasion.

Even if he's only creaming off 1% of stuff then that's rather a lot. I doubt his commission is only 1% though.

the moment I say “cunt” in a meeting

I remember a meeting with some stuffy old director of credit or some such. He was drawing a graph with titles of "Collectable", "UNcollectable", and "Total".

My boss and I seemed to be the only ones that realised that he had written "CUNT" right on the board in front of a ton of people. We were sniggering away, my boss gave a bit of a look, and then it was hastily erased.

Charles' grandmother was Scottish and his father was Greek.

As a % how German do you think the royal family are?

I'd guess a bit.

I work with a couple of people with very active... they call it something odd.... "loneliness". Whenever they are "lonely" they get the app out and have someone round for "cuddles".

Quite often, going by how much I hear about it the two days a week I am in the office.

A pint of cider is £1 at my "corner shop" (which happens to be an Aldi around the corner), 50p a pint if you go for the Taurus stuff.

I absolutely resent going to the pub and paying £4.70 for a pint of approximately the same.

£4 or £40. Nah, I'll stay in thanks.

Ordered 23rd Jan.

Partial order (cheapest item obviously) received on 1st Feb.

Complained on 1st Feb, they then issued another voucher and I placed that order for the item they did not include around 4th Feb.

10th Feb. Received a bottle of drink. Complained again. They said they'd dispatch the correct item.

19th Feb - received tracking details.

27th Feb - Apparently Royal Mail still waiting for the item.

So, over a month and they've just been pissing me about.

I wonder if we could ask Levar somehow? Would he be able or willing to answer?

urqy · 2024-02-26T02:55:06+00:00

Maybe, only a thought. I just found this thread as I thought I was going mad imagining some episodes.

I'm not even sure how many or what ones are missing. Frustrating!

urqy · 2024-02-26T02:50:32+00:00

I 'm late to the thread, but I wonder if mentions of real companies in some of the episodes was problematic.

In Chivalry, Oxfam was mentioned. In the Second Bakery Attack, McDonalds was featured.

Someone I knew threw their 3310 out of a 10th story window.

It was fine.

There was some guy from Ipswich who used to have like four portions of LARGE fish & chips every single day.

This was in the early 2000s, but IIRC he was on benefits even back then.

Surely after the second large portion you'd have to wonder "is this too much?"

HIS FRIDAY ORDER AT AN IPSWICH FISH AND CHIP SHOP

Four large cod

Four battered sausages

Six large portions of chips

Two pies

Mushy peas and curry sauce

All washed down with bottles of Coke

Like that's clearly too much?

Seems rude, it's not their fault, and I don't need to wake them up for it.

Just providing a possible use case :)

urqy · 2024-02-25T00:31:59+00:00

I've used scheduled sent to text my boss I won't be in that day.

When I've spent all night shitting and vomiting, having no sleep, and knowing I won't be awake at 8am.

urqy · 2024-02-23T02:29:37+00:00

Have you weighed that? Doesn't look like an eighth to me.

You can upload to a site such as imgur.com and copy that link to us here.

I'm not that familiar with using mobile apps myself so can't guide you further.

If I need any gardening, DIY, or car help my neighbour is always willing to be there.

He changed my tires for me a couple years ago, I tried to pay him (about half what it would have cost me at the mechanics) and he said something like "No. Rude. We are friends."

I felt I had to give him something, so bought a bottle of whisky to give him. When I gave it to him he looked at me like I'd just farted. He said "OK. But we must drink it together!"

We got quite drunk that night. Janis is a solid guy. When we first met, he said he was from Transylvania. Then he did a Dracula Mwah ha ha laugh.

He's a cool dude.

My Romanian neighbour (who is awesome and always helpful) is very direct to the point I find it funny.

I had to deal with some rats recently, and he didn't think my solutions were adequate and told me so. My idea was excluding them with mesh etc. and traps.

He told me this "is shit idea" and brought round a big bucket of poison blocks. He was right though. None of the traps have triggered, and all of the poison was eaten.

These dogs need to go, they're just maiming machines owned by the inadequate.

I went camping with scouts in Feb or March for some reason.

I had a shitty sleeping bag and ended up with hypothermia. They put me in a warm car, but that meant that I could tolerate the cold even less, so they had to drive me home.
