Sometimes the morning quickie with the hot young thing from last night gets totally out of hand, you know. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

Malcador Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm always amazed at BT's continued existence. Why has elegance found so little following?

Gfted1 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I never use my home line, 100% of my calling is done using my cell phone. TBH, Im not even sure if it still works, lol. The only reason I still have a dedicated home phone line is....Im not sure. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithe Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm always amazed at BT's continued existence. It actually worked a lot like the trains here.. Although trying to make sure it's not looking back with rose-tinted specs and all.. They seemed to run a lot more efficiently when they were Nationalised. Which is bloody strange by anything run by the government... But the things get privatised.. and they seem to have both gone to hell. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Malcador Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Well, cost cutting gets that, maybe. But generally have seen UK people complain about it so much I was always wondering if they had any competition at all over there, heh. So far, spacing out for 3 hours 45 minutes. Going good.

Raithe Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Still cant find that credit card.. I swear, the only way it's going to turn up will be when I phone up and cancel it. Then the moment I turn round it'll show up somewhere... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm always amazed at BT's continued existence. It actually worked a lot like the trains here.. Although trying to make sure it's not looking back with rose-tinted specs and all.. They seemed to run a lot more efficiently when they were Nationalised. Which is bloody strange by anything run by the government... But the things get privatised.. and they seem to have both gone to hell. Unfair comparison. Train technology hasn't changed in fifty years. Much. This lets both parties unfairly off the hook. BT because they claim everyone's doing it, and ...anyway the point is that train companies are monolithic and poorly supervised and underinvest. BT is monotlithic, creakingly inflexible at the organisational level and totally lacking in a spine of leadership. How else can one explain a company which should be commercially unassailable given its various monopolies and head starts constantly hemorrhaging customers? "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

Nepenthe Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Ok, I'm starting to get the Russian girls thing. 1) look good 2) are on time 3) not stuck up 4) actually bought ME a drink. I think I can generally get 1/4 with the locals. :D You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 My husband really needs to get rid of the extra van. I'm tired of having two huge vehicles in front of our house, especially w/limited street parking. *puts nag-hat on* “Things are as they are.

Calax Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Got a "Don't park here" letter from a neighboring business to my work because I apparently parked in their space. Never mind there's no sign that says it's there, and that it's a part of the McD's parking lot... I figure if they do actually try anything, I can turn around and sue them for my car, the towing bill, and my legal bills because there is no notification of anything.

Raithe Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Woke from a dream, having serious discussions with the ex and sorting out various issues..and it just felt so damn satisfying..and then I woke up..and I have no idea what actually got said in the dream or why it felt so damn satisfying.. (and yes, it was conversation, not some sex dream. Perverts. I know how your gutter minds work...) The puppy kept pulling up the rug so he could gnaw/bite/claw at the platform base of the cat's climbing frame.... So I've ended up standing the hoover on the corner of the rug (which makes the puppy nervous) and he's leaving it all alone for now.. Cancelled my credit card. Which practically guarantees I'll stumble over it today at some point. Just have to remember not to make any steam purchases until the new one arrives... And tis being a fairly wet and grey day in the background, so we'll have to see how things develop. I think time calls for a fresh cuppa. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
