Lack of conversation - <<

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]It seems that there is a lack of good conversation at this forum. There hasn't been many particularly interesting topics for a while now.

How about we all complain about things? Complaining is always a great basis for conversation, so please, add a complaint here.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid13]Id like to complain about the f**ked up winging customers that i have to deal with everyday :angry: [b:post_uid13] Screw yous all[/b:post_uid13] I dont give a **** whether your Christmas Lights work or not,U should know that Christmas lights are a big gamble to play with,reliability is not my problem,i dont make the damn things :angry:

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Hey Theo, sounds like job is going great. Remember, physical abuse can be seen by cameras and u get fired, verbal abuse always has two sides to it. :D Tell em as not-nicely as you can to f#@k off. They wont come back, but do store profits in the long term bother you too much? :p

I'll complain about the weather. It reached a beautiful maximum of 3 degrees here in sunny england. oh yea, did i mention the sun doesnt exist? It sprinkles with rain all day, the streetlights were on 24hrs, and there was a chilly wind. Lovely. To make it better the buses that supposedly come every 5 minutes dont. There is enough buses on the route to come every 5 minutes, but they seem to think it benefits people if 6 buses drive in a line and leave people waiitng for 40 minutes. :angry:

I wont complain about the girl who demonstrated bra sizes to me when i went xmas shopping for my g/f yesterday tho :D

And this is my 100th post. Hooray!

Cheers,
Brad[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]NOT ENUFF HOURS IN THE DAY!?!? Sunrise at 8, susnset at 3:30. try that and then you can complain!

Sardines in train - well, they dont even let u into one of the stations here until it clears out a bit its so busy!

And heeyyyyyyyyy.... another WRX non-fan. :)

While im complaining, id like to say a big f-u to the guys to held up the HSBC bank the other day. They took hostages and the police closed down half the city, so i wasted about 2 hours going in and back to buy plane tickets at a shop that had been closed off.

Its really quite fun over here. seriously! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[bRaDiNhO]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Mal, u'd lurve it. All the girls wear minis even tho its so damn cold, drinks are cheap as if u go to the right places, clubs have very cheap deals as well ie Ministry of Sound, Oxygen, Home etc.

Note: not complaining. :;):[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, I'd to complain about f@#kwits who use refill/non genuine cartridges in their printers. Goddamn they **** me.

Next, the F38ken gnome that runs this country (aka John Howard), I mean far up f&amp;*ken Bush's ass can ghe get? Why don't just become the 52nd (or whatever) state of the fu*&amp;en USofA???

Lotto. Why don't I ever win the 20 mil?? Come on, fair suck of the old....

Osama Bin Larden. Biggest f*&amp;ken c*nt of them all. Before he decided to f*&amp;k the world over, you could (if you asked nicely) get up onto the cockpit of a plane for take off and/or landing or even during the flight for a visit. Now, they won't let you anywhere near the place. Goddamn son of a bitch.

Well, I could go on, but I'm sure this board has a post limit....[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hey, Bradhino, you go to Bedrock? Has the worlds BEST EVER DJ there - John Digweed. He just rocks big time...[/color:post_uid0]

[bRaDiNhO]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Thats cheatin mate. U cant put a second post up just to make up the count. :p

Wats wrong with refills? Im too stingey to pay for a new cartridge, so ill pay for the ink and save enuff money to buy a case of Stella and a bottle of JD. See..... bargain!

Havent been to Bedrock.... ill put it on my large lists of things to do. :;):

Bite me :p

You MUST GO TO BEDROCK.

I'd also like to complain about rich pricks who complain about the tax they have to pay and how "They can't live on this small (read$50-$100k) income per year". Bull****. Mum is a tax accountant and it is ALWAYS the people earning the money who complain about paying tax. People who earn small amounts just go "Yeah, whatever". I mean, there was one guy, he was getting back about $1000 on his tax (after he complained, wined and kicked up a stink) which isn't too bad. he thought he should get more, and without cooking the books, that's al he COULD get. But he still complained. F&amp;*ken dick.[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, I've just pulled apart a printer with the fault "Not pickcing paper". *Found a lot of what looked like chewed paper in the paper path and lots more under the paper tray. *Turns out rodents of some kind had decided to make a nest in the printer by chewing up the waste ink pads. *Oh, great. *The joys of repairing printers. *Still, at least the rodent(s) aren't still in the printer....unlike previous experiences...ughhh &lt;shudder>...

Oh, this is an Epson C60, and if any of you have seen one, there aint that much room in these things. *Mice can get into almost anywhere. *

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]I hate shop assistants who don't realise thats its my money
that pays their wages. *If my fukn lights don't work then I
want new ones. *That doesn't come out of the assistants
money it goes back to the distributors for a refund so where's
the bloody problem. Just give me what I want and I will leave
problem over. *And don't give me attitude cause it will only
get me mad and then it won't be fun in the shop for you.

Theo just ****n man. *I have been on both sides mate you
got to grow a ducks back so it all just slides off. *When I
worked in the call centre its just all "My this don't work"
From the dumbest backwater people you could imagine.
Had one call about the network being down between two
sites and I see one down. *I ask for a ph number and the
guy says you cant call them the powers out. *Well dickbrain,
please put you PC back in the box cause you cant work out
that both data and phone equipment require power to work.
True Story. *Don't get upset, when you detach from it, it

That enough bitching ??

[color=#000000:post_uid2]Dont get cheeky punk *??? Dont make me hurt ya :laugh:
Most of the time Mal,there is like 1 little light globe out on these sets of lights,instead of changing it with 1 of the spares that are included,they come back to me winging they are faulty, You dont have to be 2 intelligent to change a globe ??? People should know by now that chrissy lights need alot of maintainence,globes are always going out,thats why spares were invented :;):
Other times i get wankers coming back with old sets of lights(over 12months)with no warranty left on them,expecting me to replace them for free [b:post_uid2](CANT THEY READ A BOX"12 MONTHS WARRANTY")[/b:post_uid2]
Who ever made the saying [b:post_uid2]"THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT"[/b:post_uid2] needs shooting :angry:
Thats my winge for today[/color:post_uid2]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]I hear you. You still have to step back. You know that
stupid people seem to breed more than others. Maybe
the coloured pills are too hard for the girls to decide over.
Like the sugar ones too much. Anyway just roll with it.
When the day ends you go home, you have earned your
money for the day and everybody else can go F themselves.

Lastly you could try to hurt me mate :laugh:

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]i agree wiv the train comment. but the thing thats worse is when ur on a mostely deserted train and u get mugged :angry: .
never been mugged on a train, but still...unsafe as hell![/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Complaint:
WEATHER!!!
It's bloody raining like abything!
I got wet as today!
Don't bitch to me about farmers needing the rain, this is a complaining forum![/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Easy way to fight back when mugged (if you want to that is) - 3D cell Maglite. One of the few legal weapons you can carry. If you've never seen these, they are basically an aluminum tube with 3D batteries in them that weight a couple of tonne and you could easily knock somebody out, or kill them (that's why security guards and police use them, that and they're almost indestructable).

At the very least, you could temporarily blind them and make your getaway.....[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid14]or u could just have a knife or gun or something! and it don't hurt to have mates who enjoy killing :D[/color:post_uid14]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]OK now I know how to spot you in a crowd.
Your the one with a torch in your boardshorts !!

Mal[/color:post_uid1]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yes, yes it would be a torch seeing I have a "small penis" :;): :p[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]where do u get those 3d cell maglight things?[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Don't you find them on the road like the truck driver in the

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Mal, don't be a smartass son

how much do they cost?[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]They're about $70-$80 I think.

Batteries cost about $15-$20 a set though.[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Good call Mal... :)[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Its a **** day at work, bored off my little brain.
Am just stirring **** with every post.

No offense Sandyman.

Mal[/color:post_uid1]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I think we can all assume that on this forum no offence is ever really meant. But I did like Sandymans call though[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]the friendly atmosphere of this forum makes it ok to insult others or something like that and be joking. plus everyone insults everyone else.[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid2]Nah I just do it cause I am a bastard !!

Mal[/color:post_uid2]

[Rupewrecht]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]well DER mal :p[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, how about this then for all of you in retail, or inner city high-rise office type jobs. My last job (printer service call) for the day is at the local RSL club. Oh, yeah.... :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]who at this forum is watching/watches the ABC afternoon childrens programs?[/color:post_uid0]

[EZZY]

[color=#000080:post_uid0]okay, i will start another conversation.......

whats with the mobile phones with built-in camera?
how good are they? in terms of quality/number of pics/memory/downloadability to the pc etc.
i know it will be handy for me as i always have the phone with me so i can take pics all the time.
have been looking at nokia 7650 - too big and pretty heavey and panasonic GD88 - stylish and not too heavy and better image quality.
i'd prefer pansonic at the moment. any thoughts boys and gals?[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]don't see why u need a phone for it.

the song "I Like Birds" by the eels is a very relaxing song. any comments on the eels?[/color:post_uid0]

[O-LYM-PIC]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]i got a coment on the eels- who the fuk are they???

ezzy mate i was lookin at those pic phones, but from what ive seen the pic quailty isnt all that crash hot.

and that nokia one is way 2 big, in my mind.[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Thanks Ezzy :)

Phones with the cams are pretty kewl. I wouldn't rely on the camera as your only one. I'd still keep a either a digital or film camera for normal pictures. But if you want to take a quick snap of something (say another done up Astina at the shops), you have the camera and can SMS it to others (as long as they have capable phones). Only problem, as you mentioned is the size. ALso battery life is going to be kinda **** if you're taking pictures all over the place.


Quality is ok for quick snaps, but I wouldn't rely on it for the family reunion photo! Try and get as many pixels in the camera as you can (or higher resolution). I don't know if any have zoom, but if they do find out if it is digital (more than likely) or optical. Go for optical over digital.[/color:post_uid0]

[MrShadow]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yeah, WTF are the Eels?[/color:post_uid0]

[EZZY]

[color=#000080:post_uid0]no, you dont need a phone to take pics. its just handy to have a phone that allows you to take pics. its a hassle for me to carry a digital camera as well as a phone.
you know..... you dont want to miss "those" moments.....[/color:post_uid0]

[Sandyman]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]ok, explanation on who the eels are: if anyone here has seen "roadtrip", then u might have heard the song that was played while they were driving. it was the one with the chorus that goes "god damn right, it's a beautiful day"

good ass music. if u got any download programs, get "mr e's beautiful blues"[/color:post_uid0]

[BigMal]

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Eric,
They aren't all that good if you want to save them
to a PC. The size is pretty tiny. I like the Sony
but the only problem is remembering to bring the
camera attachment but they would be mad for those
nights at the club when you got some chick hanging
off you and you send to mates or just a shot of the
crowd saying wish you were here. I often gat calls
at 4am from mates to rub in how mad a DJ is pumping
when I am not out. Listening to the music would be nothing
compared to a pick of a crowded dancefloor with some
nice girls in front.

Now that would hurt.

[bRaDiNhO]

[color=#FF0000:post_uid0]Eric, a chic came into the pub i work at took a few snaps of me and another guy and sent them to us. Supposedly were on a Panasonic promo website but never checked. Pics were good considering it was from the (panasonic) phone.... definately not 6 megapixel good, but clear enuff at atbout 1/4 of screen size. I bought a digital camera, its about 4 cm by 2 cm by 1cm. only 100000 pixels, but u never complain about the size. Cost $90 new from CameraHouse. Its had some rave reviews, can store up to 80 pics, and take 8 second movie clips. Called Digital Dream L'Espion.[/color:post_uid0]
