    Couldn't you just slap the people who say 'smile, it may never happen!'?

    Oh yes! I hate that!

    Someone once made the mistake of saying that to me when my mum was dying. I'm sure he's never uttered those words again!:D

    Ouch! It reminds me of a time during the break up , when a work colleague came in with that, looking back it was funny, as my other colleagues were aware there was a problem, and were hastily trying to shut him up "discreetly" of course.

    Yet he persisted in his unfunny "im a dicked" kind of jokes and japes, im sure you all know the type. somethings you dont wanna talk about it, but theres no way you can hide the fact theres a problem, and after his persistant barrage, and inability to take the hint, even with a subtle , "Just shut the F*KC up, PLEASE!", lets say I lost my temper ;)

    Well done! Will you be able to keep it up, or will you do what I do and cave in eventually? Have never mastered the art of being able to ignore them:mad:
