Annoying People of The Week 16 May 2008

by rithompson @ 2008-05-16 - 19:03:17

This week's consignment into Room 101.

Tight Bastards in charge of large organisations: For cancelling my temp work this morning, because they don't want to cough up anymore money (like they were paying much already!).

That "Heartbreaker" song: By that one from the Black Eyed Peas, and that Footballer's Wife/Popstar. It's going through my head, and I hate it!

The Burmese government: For apparently doing bugger all to help the poor people affected by the cyclone. Look at China, they've shown that they can take time out from censoring Google, etc, to show that they can help their people in need. It's not difficult you know!

Some Thoughts I've Had This Week

by rithompson @ 2008-05-10 - 12:15:38

Because sitting in front of a photocopier all day tends to lead the mind down some strange paths.

1. The ginger one who was evicted from The Apprentice on Wednesday night is possibly Martin Jol in drag. A random tangent, what happens to these desperate people after the series? Are they really actors?

2. The workload of Admin Staff is never considered by people in high places, yet if we ever happened to decide to go on strike, I'm sure the whole country will grind to a halt. :yes:

3. Is it possible to travel clockwise around London's outer boroughs by bus? I'm sure it is, and have started work on a game to test this theory.

And, that is the (clean) extracts of what goes through my head in a normal working week!

Annoying People of The Week 9 May 2008

by rithompson @ 2008-05-09 - 20:20:55

For possible consignment into Room 101, or whatever fate we agree is appropriate.

1. The backstabbing, pathetic no-hopers from Wednesday night's The Apprentice. Specifically, the "leader" who couldn't lead a piss up in a brewery, Martin Jol in drag and "The Good Jewish Boy" who doesn't actually understand Kosher - therefore contradicting his own CV. (Yes, I'm aware that is very common!).

2. Josef Fritzl's defence team. For announcing that they're going to plead insanity. STOP MALIGNING THE INSANE! We are not controlling, power crazed nut cases.

General, Non-Private Question

by rithompson @ 2008-05-08 - 19:13:18

Why is it, that I can walk up and down my street knocking on neighbours doors collecting for charity, but cannot even speak to a man that I am infatuated with?!

This is a general question, open to all of blogworld and the internet, and not refering to anyone in particular.

In the words of Radio 4 on a Saturday afternoon, any answers? :??:

Fairweather. Fickle. Friends?

Has Avram the Undertaker steered Chelski to a European Cup final, and potentially to the league title? I only ask, because listening to 90% of Chavski fans on 606, you'd think they were in the relegation zone!

Honestly. If they had just received the best meal ever cooked they'd probably say, "well, the potato was a bit underdone, and I don't really like mushrooms!" Never satisfied! :roll:

And what is it with people on facebook?! Adding famous footballers/TV Personalities (assuming they are the actual person) to there friends, and then recommending that others do the same. :??: Listen, the way I see it, Facebook friends are people who I've met before - either in person, or online - not some celebrity who I probably won't associate with in real life! I wouldn't even add an Arsenal legend if someone "recommended" - why would they want to know details of my life, updated in every new status?!

Oh Dear!

by rithompson @ 2008-05-03 - 07:30:26

How long will it take for this guy to prove himself to be an inept moron? (This isn't Boris we are talking about)

A question arises from the fact that BNP have a seat in the London Assembly. Why do people feel the need to vote for an ignorant nazi?

(Opening this for discussion, because I don't know)

End with a quote referring to immigration;

He said he believed immigrants who have arrived in the past 15 years were taking more than they were giving.

Can I introduce you to a few Romanians (and Irish, and Poles) I know who are very hard working?! My Dad - himself an immigrant - has found in recent years, during the course of building works on his properties, that immigrants are more enthusiastic to get to work on time than English workers. If anyone is taking more than they're giving, I don't think it's the migrants!

As the legend that is Marcus Brigstocke says;

"Doing our jobs. Willingly. On time, on budget and with a smile!"

You Want The Good News First?

by rithompson @ 2008-05-03 - 06:23:57

Good News: Ken is out.

Bad News: Some Tory Buffoon has replaced him. And Pompous Twat Coleman is still "representative" for Barnet and Camden.

Don't blame me, I voted Paddick (with the Green party lady as second preference).

Whatever. How many people will notice? How many were actually bothered when Ken was mayor for eight years?!

Newsflash! NEWSFLASH!

by rithompson @ 2008-05-02 - 18:58:21

Coldplay's latest single actually sounds decent. As in, it has four lines in one block which make sense, and Chris Martin isn't sounding like he's been sedated. :))

Looks like New Labour have been ten rounds with Joe Calzaghe - that's what happens when you take from the poor, and give to the rich!

Annoying Concepts & People For Consignment into Room 101

by rithompson @ 2008-04-29 - 18:52:58

Fosters Radio Ads: It is not beer. It is piss water. Please take note, and advertise correctly!

DAB Digital Radio Ads: Mainly because of that condescending, patronising woman (Germaine Greer?) who equates writing letters with listening to a gramaphone. Excuse me!? Sometimes it is nice to receive a handwritten letter, especially if all we get are depressing bills!

The Bandwagon Surrounding Kate & Gerry McCann: Please. Make it stop! Let us all move on.

Having Realised That I Don't Love Myself....

by rithompson @ 2008-04-28 - 18:54:01

I decided to listen to the words of this song, and figure out how I'm supposed to love myself.
