I hate

If a cat craps in my garden do I have the right to take my dogs for a dumpathon in theirs? Are shit for shat responses legal?

No, laws are very different between cats and dogs. Dogs are your property and you are responsible for what they do. Other people are also responsible for what they do to your dog (eg if they hit it with a car). Cats are not so much either way.

I won’t have a clue if I’m being shafted

It seems fairly clear you are being shafted. Right now the available energy supply and cost of production hasn't changed.

Thanks for that, I wasn't expecting a reply as my post was a shitty excuse for a good pun.

On lfgss revenge bonnet shits & hammered lawn sausages are valid legal responses, under UK law I fear....not.

But maybe the owner let's you go in the cat's litter box if you ask nicely :p

No need at the moment, I've just crapped in their kettle.

It is hard going to begin with

There's also LyX, which allows you to put off learning LaTeX till you want to become a power user.

Word proccessors have a long dive down the wrong tech rabbit hole for most people who use them, particularly in businesses of any scale, where they want people to be producing documents to one of a standard set of templates.

Calm down Nigel

Thought I might come across a bit UKIP but the frustration comes from the knowledge that the only reason the service is so shit is to improve the share price by a few pence at the expense of both the customer and those poor people who have to put up with cunts complaining at them all day for a low wage.

For the call centres in India, at least, the story's a bit more complex than that. For various reasons, English language skills are a core business skill in India, so the opportunity to learn reasonable English usage on the job is quite the opportunity for many and a route to higher wages.

I used to go to Archway Kebab Centre every Sunday afternoon on my way home to Birmingham from my girlfriend’s in Highbury and I’d rarely make it home without making a mess of a cubicle at an M1/M6 service station.

A truly beautiful vignette. Thanks for sharing.

April Fool’s Day and all of the inane unfunny articles that every website/magazine/newspaper/broadcaster come out with each year.

You’re joking, right?

I found this one quite amusing. This probably not the thread for them all.

I shoot air rifles competitively. 99% turn up to shoot little metal targets fully dressed in camo. My belief is that it is to confuse predators.

I really hope that this is satire.

The wine section in my local Sainsbury’s. For some fucking bizarre reason they have stopped grouping all the red wine by country and just thrown them all together. There didn’t seem to be any discernible pattern, not even alphabetical.

How the fuck does that make it easy to find a specific wine you dozy fuckwads?

People building and selling telephone services that haven't read ITU-T E.123 7.2

It was serious as this one.

People who fuck about with the settings on the toaster.

Likewise people who adjust the vertical position of the dishwasher tray. Or the oven racks.

Having a smart meter installed that reduces your WiFi performance to that of an aged asthmatic cat.

Great.

Cursory internet investigations suggest it may operate on the same bandwidth. I just don't understand.

So it's now in a drawer, like the poster above I won't know how much I'm being de-breeked for, probably a good thing. Nope not at all.

ZigBee can operate on 2.4GHz which your WiFi might be. 5GHz WiFi generally performs better anyway so you could switch to that although the in-home display shouldn't really cause a problem.

I mostly found the in-home display pointless anyway.

people who adjust the vertical position of .......the oven racks.

Reasonable grounds for divorce.

Got to say I'm a bit baffled by the oven Stasi.

What do you do if you need to put a casserole in the middle of the oven when you're forbidden from moving the upper rack to the bottom? Likewise what about bacon or cheese on toast? Do you just have wait longer because your can't move the rack to the top?

Does it not quietly niggle at you as to why all the oven manufacturers have >4 rack slots? Do you sometimes question your militancy like some sort of Q Anon believer, who is starting to feel like maybe the weather emojis may not have all the answers? 🌩️
