Notice to Newcomers - re Trolls - Part 10

handyman123_2

YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2011 when...

1. You accidentally enter your PIN on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that
they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your mobile phone
to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen

8. Leaving the house without your mobile phone, which you didn't even have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )

12 You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.

And Finally Bump as Handy Whooshes back to the Garden,:D

Thank you handy for that insight into life in 2011, in case any Martians have landed and are wondering what the hell is going on. Particularly the dependence on mobile phones. I mean, a couple of decades or so ago when people walked down the high street they did not feel the need to dive into every phone box along the street to ring up their mates, so why do it now? And why have a mobile phone switched on at home when people can reach you on the landline? Unless it's a mobile used for business purposes - but I always think when I see a business advert give a mobile number that there is something dodgy or not quite kosher about that company.
Suspicious, me? Nah!

By the way - this thread has been bumped.

:mad: You know what I hate??
I hate dodgy companies offering debt management services or write off your debt services to people coming on here for advice on how to do the job so that they can charge their clients for work which they haven't done, no nothing about and we would willing give the same advice we are doing direct to the client for free.

Now there was someone on the other day with a blatant username being his DMP co and that was annoying but soon removed thanks to the spambusters (:j) but what is even more annoying is those that post as though they themselves want help or want advice to help their friends, in some cases its darned obvious what they are doing and it blinking well annoys me.

:mad:, rant over and consider the thread bumped.

Nargleblast

Rant away, Tixy, those sorts want their nadgers removed with a blunt teaspoon and fed to the fishes.

Welcome to the forum to all those newcomers who may be watching, and come and join the Tuesday club where we celebrate everything that's good about Tuesdays.



Is it Wednesday yet?

Tixy

Pah. I'm in the I hate Tuesdays club, can you guess what club I'm joining tomorrow?

Nargleblast

Er, the "Don't tell me it's beeping Wednesday again" club?

Soon be Friday!
