Error messages like "this task has failed to complete successfully"
Well no s

Those stupid bloody cardboard packs now used by a certain lager brand for 4 packs. Which invariably end up with several cans on the floor whenever you pick one up.
Don't ever by one the shop has taped back up, unless you like exploding beer can roulette.....
Is that Carlsberg? Coke has increasingly been packaged in the same way, where you just twist the can out from the packaging. I think it's fantastic! Maybe it doesn't work as well with 440ml cans as it does with 330ml ones.Don't ever by one the shop has taped back up, unless you like exploding beer can roulette.....
My car is broken at the moment. I changed the HT leads and now it won't start. It cranks perfectly well and "catches" occasionally but it won't start.
Anyway, whenever I walk in the door, which happens multiple times a day to get a tool, some refreshments, or maybe scouring long dead forums for someone, anyone, who had the same problem - my step-dad will, without fail, ask the following three questions:
"Is it working yet"
"Do you know what's wrong with it"
"What are you going to do about it"
Not so bad if you have fixed it... but otherwise...

Ruined? I'm having quite the chuckle!
Yep. The worst thing about non-seq's punnery are the 3 pages of whinge posts that always seem to follow him around.Not sure why they just can't scroll past without having a cry.

Why on earth would you think anyone is crying. Someone expressing their dislike for something, doesn't mean they are crying. The 7 volumes of this thread are about things people dislike but I have never heard of it bringing anyone to tears. Very odd comment. Cotty said:

Erm... It's because it's what they're doing.They are having a big whinge over nothing. This inevitably turns into a 3 page cry fest until a mod steps in and frankly, the rest of us are sick of it ruining a good thread.

Nobody is crying, but people are complaining because it's something that annoys them.
Nope... You're having a great big bloody cry over it "Waaaah he made a pun and upset me"
You're making it worse by having a cry over people pointing out that you're having a cry. You cant dig your way out of a hole.
Now is a perfect time for you to move on.
