funny.
![]()
I can't get over this. It's just so funny!
you're weird......![]()
probably why i like you.
*grins*
I love this site!
hehehe yeah, it's cute.
My only wish is that they'd show the comic in their RSS feed.... most of the time I can't be bothered to click through
Thats the main reason I don't use RSS... I can't be bothered clicking through everything
Oh no, most blogs have a full feed, so there's minimal clicking thru.
You should give it another go
i like that one.....it's funny.....![]()
I've done something similar many times.
For example, I had to drive to a new location last Saturday. And I got hopelessly lost. I called Pierre and asked him if he could look at Google maps for me, but he was on his way home, so we agreed that I'd call him in 10 mins.
As I was sitting there in my car, I decided I'd better get a pen for when he gives me the direction. I opened my glovebox - and my trusty ol map book practically falls out.
D'oh!!
yeah.....there are many times when my reliance on technology sort of smacks me in the head.
hehehe yeah!


Don't know why I posted this..... just came across it and felt they belonged in here somehow
It's from the "Alternative life instructions"
they're funny.
HAHAHAHAHA
I'd forward the yoga one to my dad.... if he had any way of receiving it
Replying to something further up, I set my RSS reader to load the whole page, not just the contents of the feed - I got bored of clicking through every time too.
Which reader do you use SK?
I use Google reader, and I'm fairly sure there isn't such a thing. You get what they send through
I use the Firefox add-on NewsFox
This is bloody brilliant... Paris Hilton's response to McCain's ad against Obama.
I know it's almost certainly scripted, rehearsed and/or read from a teleprompter... but hell, so are the politicians' speeches ![]()
Yeh, I saw that. Funny, but I find it hard to laugh when it's her
I miss my home computer... I can't see any of these! ![]()
Got your connection going?
Not yet grrr
Darn!! It's been ages already!
I knoooowwwwww
Can you please call them up and tell them to return my friend to me?
I reckon lol.. I called them on the weekend. Apparently its some backend issue which they're resolving and I'm waiting for them to get back to me. They're lying.. I know it![]()
Bloody hell!
I'm gonna call them back today and ask what's going on. They said they'd call me first thing this morning but they are perth-based so there's a 2 hour delay.
Calling now.. Like right now this second LOL
Okay cool.
*channels moral support*
![]()
Please specify your reason for absence....
Make sure you read the ensuing discussion. There are some funny folks out there!
Classic.
I'm so keeping that list for when I need an excuse lol
that is beautiful - a few of my favourites are: Detachment from reality, Foreign body (i thought of a swedish girl straight away), and obsessive compulsive disorder (sorry i couldn't come in but i couldn't stop locking and relocking the fornt door)
Ooohh Nice one simon!!
fornt = front (apparently being dyslexic isn't a valid reason)
"General Symptoms"
LOL!
personality disorder!
"sorry, couldn't come in to work today cause i'm a dick, and all you guys are just swell"
"Threatened abortion" - wtf?
hahahaha
You guys are hilarious!
"i'm not coming in to work today - if you make me i'll abort this project"
couldn't quite say the word baby even as a joke
Oohh... maybe...
See i was thinking from maybe trauma of being threatened
But if I was the threatened foetus then I wouldn't want to go to work either![]()
HAHAHAHAHA
Keep going.... you two are on a roll!
And Simon, replacing baby with project makes it oh-so-much funnier
![]()
i don't understand "wax". Is that hair removal, ear, hair, surfboard, candle?
Ah! candle . . . . "sorry boss, couldn't come in to work today cause i slipped and 'fell' on a candle - it's a wax related absense"
Maybe it's an euphemism for 'burnt out'?
It's the hair that would worry me....
as in - "i couldn't get my style just right so i didn't come in to work"
i don't understand "wax". Is that hair removal, ear, hair, surfboard, candle?
maybe, some freaky sex-capade accident?
They were trying to remove hair, but an ear came off instead, so they took their hair and surfboard and made a candle?
lol!
The sick-call on a Monday morning....
Employee: "I'm sorry I can't come to work today. I've been taking medication and the effects haven't worn off yet".
Boss: "What medication were you taking?".
Employee: "Viagra...."
Why do you always do that?
Do what?
Make excuses?
*shrug*
Best. Thing. Ever.

Totally funny blog post
Hey, that's amazing photography, of that bug..or whatever it is..
Look at the eyes on the thing!
YEAH!
i thought so too.......i was too busy trying to keep up at the time to respond...
LOL!
How come no one commented on the post itself? Specifically the comment it highlights?
“Unimaginably bizarre as it might be to see the world through insect eyes, it must be even more of a mindfuck to see the world through droplet-covered insect eyes.”
You mean this comment? hahaha
hehehe yesh
i didn't see that...
*tsk tsk*

nice.
Sorta fits with the discussion abt me being a bot earlier![]()
yeah....i got that....![]()
![]()
Me thinks this cat has watched too many horror movies...
HAHAHAHA!!!
That clip needs a Psycho sountrack or something added to it![]()
and that brings me back up to date on my Tangling...
You guys post a hell of a lot of messages in a couple of days.
Well thank heavens you're back with us - we wouldn't want you to miss anything else now would we!
![]()
That's punishment for being away SK....
I type more when I'm sad![]()
welcome back, sk.
sure was glad you weren't around long enough for me to get a riddle point.![]()
that video is awesome.

lol!
The middle one... everytime I see the first one, I turn it over...
LOL yeah me too
![]()
me too.![]()
I'm soooo glad I'm not the only one...
it's just the right way to do it.
And I never get why others I've lived with don't get it....
And it seems everybody I've ever lived with does it like that - are we a dying breed?
Sometimes I think we are....
The day I find a guy who does things like I do, ie hand toilet paper the same way, arranges cans etc, I'll set my principles aside and procreate with him.... we need more of us!
trust me that's not a good plan.![]()
hahahahaha
The first one is the correct way.
If I see any like the middle one, I turn them over, because you have a bit of paper flapping in the breeze. (it's uncivilised) ![]()
The first one is WRONG!!
The first one is wrong because it's unsanitary to have your toilet paper against the wall
Only for those of you that use both sides of it..![]()
Second one makes more sense mechanically
Plus you don't lose the edge of the roll!
No.. think about it - if your paper is against the wall and you occasionally/accidentally touch the wall while getting your paper, imagine all the germs left on that wall by you or other people. That then touches every piece of paper that goes against the wall.. eww...
It doesn't make any sense at all....![]()
Lose the edge ....pffft
what about the seat and the flush button and the door knob ![]()
It's your responsibility! I clean the toilet everytime i use it (before and after), and use a paper towel, or bit of loo roll to open the door.
It sounds strange, but it's a habit built-in to me now, and I do it like its second nature - I don't understand why more people aren't aware personal hygeine
Actually, I try not to touch the handles on most doors...
money is the worst. it's the only thing that i don't constanlty clean, but I tend to use my card everywhere i go anyway
You go through that ritual at home too?
ok.... I'm not quite like Morgan... But the roll stance stands!
the first example wastes paper.
Yeah all the time - it wasn't so bad when I lived by myself, but since living with flatmates I now do it regularly.
the first example wastes paper.
How do you work that out, moneypenny?
it's a fact.
How?
You can't see how much you're pulling off?
i'm searching for my proof.
LOL!
Do you close your eyes...![]()
i found it:
See, I said it was about the mechanics!
![]()
SEE?!?!?!
Well done bluegirl![]()
![]()
i'm very resourceful.
and once again....i'm not doing my homework .....![]()
Good on ya, moneypenny
STILL haven't done my office report - bluegirl, I promise I will take it home tonight!
Oh crap... I need to do my taxes!
Damn.. me too![]()
Do you know when the cut off date is?
October 31st - plenty of time![]()
Ahhhh.... YAAAY!
*hugs Morgan*
That means I don't have to do it till I get back!
October 31st - plenty of time![]()
those are words that will get you into big trouble.....
trust me.
hahahahah
True....
I always do my tax sometime in october... although I really should do it sooner because i really need the money
I always thought it was end of August for some reason.... I did mine then last year...
Back to the toilet paper debate, I'm a definite over-hang favourer. Having the end sheet disappearing down the back of the roll is just stupid and wrong and smelly and stupid ![]()
hahaha..you can't argue with that...conclusive proof if ever i saw it...![]()
I sent this around my office - and it seems I have some fellow "right-way" colleagues who stand by me.... It was a good response![]()
Speaking of office.... I used to be the only female on this floor, and boy was life good....
Now, everytime I go in, something's out of place
grrrrrrrrrr
I used to be the only female working in my (old workplace) too! The guys were too scared to do anything out of place!
We sort of had an unspoken deal - If they didn't piss me off, then they got to perve on me at work.... I didn't give them permmission, but they were gonna do it anyway, unless they stuffed up and were too scared to come near me.![]()
I was their boss so it worked out I guess.
oh man, that goes against everything i just learned in my "respect in the workplace" seminar i just had. Everything i learned has now been pushed out of my head
They have a seminar on that?!!?
Being the only female here at Tangler has been great.
This is heaven compared to when I was working in an engineering firm.... I never felt more threatened before and since then.
It got to a point that I'd wait till 8 or 9 pm before going home - when all the mechanics had left the hangars I had to walk by to leave the compound.
yeah - compulsory.
to your seminar question
Have there been issues at your work place?
nope - it's just a compulsory part of working here. Then if you get busted for inappropriate behaviour you can't say "but she let us perve on her if we kept in line". Managers get an even more comprehensive course than the rest of the company.
Oh!
It's a strange world where male and female adults have to be taught how to work with each other....
One would think they would have covered that in kindy
![]()
I didn't mean it like that!
I just meant that I didn't have a go at them for doing it! Boys will be boys, and they weren't doing it offensively.
What else are they supposed to do when the only vegetable amoung the sausages was me... ![]()
(that was probably the worst metaphor i've even used....)
*sigh*
hahahaha Not Rose among the Thorns?
hahahahahahaa.
Maybe vegetable was the wrong choice - the only vegetable i can think of when mentioning sausages is a carrot
Yeah... honestly couldn't think of anything - my mind went completely blank!
I was trying to describe what a woman would be to a "sausage-fest"
EWWWWWWWWWW
*covers eyes, trying to get rid of mental image*
*digs hole again*
I was trying to describe what a woman would be to a "sausage-fest".
Maybe saukraut? or mashed potato?
OKKKK...... REPHRASE:
What else are they supposed to do when I'm the only girl working in a store full of boys...
ummm.... work?
![]()
*stops digging momentarily*
hehehe I'm just being silly
LOL! I know what you mean.... I just hope you get what I'm trying to say! (whatever that may be) lol
Yesh, I gets it...
Vegetables and sausage connotations aside![]()
Suddenly feeling hungry
Me too actually
yeah i get it too - i'm just poking fun. (but it still comes under the title of 'inappropriate behaviour' according to the seminar.)
And please, don't mention eating right after the analogies we were just using
Muahahahaha!!!!!
![]()
HAHAHAHA!
vegetable among the sausages!

heheeheheh Eggactly
I thought we were over this.... ![]()
It'll never cease to be funny
morgan.....i am actually not teasing you.....whether or not it's a perfect fit (lol).....,i understood what you meant.....,and i found it to be awesomely hilarious.![]()
Oh, I knew you weren't teasing! I just thought the joke got old.. lol - i guess you weren't around when it was posted![]()
exactly.
HAHAHA IDIOT:

ROFL!!!
Too funny!
hahahahaha
Yeah I literally LOL'd for ever when I saw this !!
That's gold.
I like how s/he added it like it would be a common suggestion in the first place
Not so stupid: many more asked the same question
All thought scanning mirrors would work, although there was a duplicate entry a few weeks ago after this picture was posted on stumbleupon
I like the girl who thought filming a mirror and then playing it back would work...
HAHAHAHAHAHA
HELP!!
?
Is that like the 'Castle of Aaaarrggg....', Dek?
And lol....!
Castle of what??
Yeah, I was thinking the same!
From Monty Python and the Holy Grail... lol
From Wikiquote:
[The Knights, along with Brother Maynard, venture into the cave and find the runes.]
Arthur: There! Look!
Lancelot: What does it say?
Galahad: What language is that?
Arthur: Brother Maynard! You are our scholar.
Brother Maynard: [studies the runes] It's Aramaic.
Arthur: What does it say?
Maynard: It says, 'Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Arimethea: "He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the Holy Grail in the Castle of Aaaaarrrgh"'.
[pause]
Arthur: What?
Maynard: '"...The Castle of Aaaaarrrgh"'.
[pause]
Bedevere: Where is that?
Maynard: He must have died while carving it.
Lancelot: [incredulous] Oh, come on!
Maynard: Well that's what it says.
Arthur: Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't bother to carve 'Aaaaarrrgh'. He'd just say it!
Galahad: Perhaps he was dictating.
Oohh... never saw it![]()
HAHAHAHAHAHHA
Love it!
That's it, I HAVE to get my grubby paws on those flims
Tee hee, they are really classic. That's the type of humor you'd expect in modern times ![]()
I doubt it.... rarely see that humour these days
I do in America...
...
And isn't that what matters?
...
...
Go America!
... On the other hand...
Your fingers are different!
Umm... yeah... ![]()
Come on, that was hilarious... ![]()
Oh... yeah... sorry... forgot to laugh....

Just too mature of humor for you...

Hehehe!!!

Oh GOSH. Something just hit me...
One of the side effects of technology - I haven't had to lick an envelope in a looooong while
what with christmas coming, you should be getting plenty of action soon, synth...
um...synth.....it's not envelopes we want licked....![]()
*scratching head*
You want the cards licked?
She's at it again...

Which she? Me or blueg?
Bluegirl.
*phew*
You can't be that innocent Dek.
Why Mr Dent, whatever are you talking about?
![]()
Ask bluegirl, I'm sure she'll explain better than I can.
Mr Dent, my answerer of questions, pray do not forsake me now!
i think she was talking about the stamps......
nope....
i'm all out of ideas...gonna need a clue...
you're a clever boy....you'll figure it out..
um...ice lolly?
nope....although that could prove useful..
Freud would have a field day with this topic
That's sort of the point ![]()

Who's Freud and whatever does he do that would relate to licking envelopes?

omg...how did i miss that?
i've been obsessively checking for white text on all your posts....

I'm calling you an ignoramus!

The fact that I was sarcastic...

ah, teenage-ese:
cool.
Ahhh... so that's how I got 75 new messages in this forum![]()
Btw, I had a conversation like that on the phone last night... with my mother. And I ain't no teenager!

hahaha, that reminds me of the conversations I used to have with my grand daughter, when I drove her to college for a couple of weeks. In addition to the remarks in the clip she used to throw in a few "whatever's", (probably because she knew it pissed me off)
Heh... I have to say, 'whatever' pisses me off too... and I used to use it cos I knew it pissed the listener off![]()
I hate how he says 'good'. At first it sounded like he was saying 'gut' or 'gup' or something...
*hint= me is not an aussie*
nah, that's teenage-ese.
good is pronounced 'guud'
nothing is 'nutt'n'
*is fairly fluent in this language/dialect*
Kid!
over the weekend, I've been thinking about how cool it would be if Google offered maps for different times in history...
...and then I see this:

HA!!!!! I like!!!! where did you dig that up?
I'm addicted to this at the moment
i think dek is trying to tell us she has upgraded her navigational systems....i'd like to know what she was using before....
The stars??
maybe....and for driving in that day she's got a picture of the night sky pasted across her windscreen....
Actually, that may explain why the traffic in India is so bad... ![]()
I drive entirely based on memory and feel... Works most of the time.
At least I've never set out for India and ended up in America....
you drive around, eyes closed, hands out in front of you, thinking 'there should be a corner here somewhere...'?
You have no idea how often that happens to me....
People keep movings roads around for some reason
suddenly i feel good about living in a different hemisphere....
Why? Are the roads there different?

Now, that's skill isn't it?
Quite!
I wonder if he ever practiced, was born with the natural talent, or just one day had a very important message to read/send and had to make the job/death decision.
Nah... he just rides inbetween texting...
![]()
That is quite dangerous, though... something you'd see in a Cirque du Soleil preformance, or something...
Meh, danger schmanger.
Who needs brakes anyway?
Uhm... humans?
Let me rephrase that, alive humans?
Alive humans that value their lives?
Alive humans that value their lives and aren't invincible or able to teleport or able to dig their heels into the ground while riding on a motorcycle at 100k/m and have it stop instantly, and not have G forces tear them apart?
Well, at least he'll be able to call for help....
I have a feeling he's not much for Bluetooth, or phone calling any other way... and texting isn't that easy while your fingers are broken and you're being run over on an interstate highway.
being run over on an interstate highway
Am I the only one with a mental picture of a giant section of road just ripping itself up off the ground and rolling along on top of colossal wheels... with all the traffic still driving around on top... then the whole thing goes and runs over some poor little guy who was using his phone while driving.
No? Just me? Ok...
Whaaaatt? Can't... stop... laughing!!!!
Where did you get that? I could understand if I said 'by', but I said 'on'!
... it appears I read it as "by" even though I can see from what I copy/pasted that it always said "on"
Hahahaaa!!!!

That's brilliant!!

funny
....but i can't help but wonder if i would be fooled by it...
...probably..
I just watched the last clip again.. it's totally hillarious I can't stop laughing! I'd definitely be fooled!
Hahaha!!!!!! I love it!!!
I wonder how many of those people were just humouring the two on the ground. Like, you can see there's nothing there, but you don't want to be rude, so you 'step over' nothing?
lol, yea, then you also factor in 'mob mentality', "Hey, these people are doing it, so I suppose they're right, and I'll follow them, too, just so I don't look like an idiot and trip" sorta thing, which just keeps going on. Also, people doubting their own vision, etc., etc.

And Dek, It really depends when you open a parachute, it would have to be very soon after you fell out. Otherwise, it wouldn't have enough time to slow you at such a low altitude.
yeah 100ft is only about 30m.
is says the fall is from 100 feet....indicating your starting point is 100 feet above the ground. it does not however, say that you fall 100 feet...so if you land on something that is 99 feet tall....you'll be perfectly fine...
In that case you can fall from 30,001 feet and be just fine by jumping in an airplane ![]()
HAHAHAH![]()
yeah....would make a great holiday story....'i was flying back from foreignland and i fell from 30,000 feet...and survived!!
Does it count if you trip over in the airplane?
depends on how you word it....i fell over at 30,000 ft is not quite as good as falling from 30,000 ft...
Oohh.. so make sure you trip when the plane is losing altitude... got it!
Way back in my dim and distant past I did a couple of parachute jumps from 30,000 feet. Stepped off the tailgate of a C130 and dropped like a stone to 3,000 feet before opening the canopy. In retrospect it was the two most stupid things I've ever done.
HAHAHAHA!! You always bring a smile to my face Arthur ![]()
Ahhh... the C-130.... It's got a special place in my heart. And not because I jumped outta it. I didn't. I'm slightly smarter than Mr Dent in this respect....
Sir M - Why are you growing a full on beard??
because a) i can....b)it seems to annoy people and c) its bloody cold at the moment and i want to see if if makes any difference in keeping my face warm....we're not worthy enough to have heating in our department....![]()
which were the stupid bits AD?
the getting on the C-130...stepping off the tail...dropping like a stone or opening the canopy?
Your beard annoys people?!?!
What, you walk around with food stuck in it?
ewww
hehehe...no, there is no food in it...it contains only 100% natural beardy goodness. no added colours, flavours or mystery substances.
for reasons unknown, some people have become overly opinionated over something that doesn't concern them....and as they seem to dislike it so much, i figure that is a good enough reason to keep it...so there!
Why should a C130 have a special place in your heart? I can only imagine that either:
You (or someone close to you) had their lives saved by one being around... or
You don't like any comforts whatsoever when on an airoplane.
LOL!
Let's just say I worked closely with it when I did my engineering internship. (the rest is classified
)
c) its bloody cold at the moment and i want to see if if makes any difference in keeping my face warm
it works well, as long as it's not outside in the snow. I would recommend avoiding snow at all costs. Once it gets on/in your beard, it will melt onto your face, and then refreeze your beard solid. Not bloody fun for anyone.
I grew a beard two years ago in order to insulate my face from the snow. It did not work. I have since learned to wrap my face like your little icon here does:
I just walk out and face it head on.
Then again, I live in Sydney...
Hmm...It doesn't know here...
Why, are you thinking of growing a beard, dek?
Errrm... no...... but I don't use one of the scarf thingies either
Aahhh...
I have always wanted to grow a beard though...
I'd like to sit in a cafe, think and stroke my beard
AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Mental image....ROFL....ahahahahAAHAHAHAHAH!!!
*grins*
I would recommend avoiding snow at all costs
that shouldn't be to difficult, snow is becoming increasingly rare around here.....apart from the half dozen or so flakes that bring the county to a standstill...
Dek! If you could grow a beard, the kind of which you could sit in a cafe and stroke whilst thinking, I reckon you'd make a heap on the freak circuit as a bearded lady... If you could also grow another breast you'd be swimming in the cash!
Hey, what ever needs to be done to get my yard-full of cars....![]()
Oh, you've just reminded me of something else I've always wanted to do...
Swim in a vault full of coins, like Scrooge McDuck![]()
Completely off-topic: did tangler change the bar of colour next to your name on a post? I swear it looks different...
hey! rounded corners!
Nope... no change there. It comes with the skin
Really?? I noticed it too!! I was like.."were those corners always round?"
Really...they always were? hmmm
Not in IE, though. IEtab says that IE doesn't round the corners.
Nah, I use FF 98% of the time, and 100% for when I use tangler. I swear they've changed!
They haven't you psychos!
(have too)

did so
So tempted to reuse that emoticon at DJ
![]()
Ah-ha, the old white text trick..![]()
Shocking I know...
Acrobatic sleeping
LOL!

Looks bloody uncomfortable!![]()
I'd liked to have been there when it wakes up!
And yes... OUCH
i guess its been there a while judging by its tan lines...
Aww its so cute!!
tan lines... ROFL!!

One I found!![]()
Saw that!
Homework fail:

hahahahaha
Poor kid
I've seen that, but without the caption. Yowch.

HAHAHAHAH
That prompted a whole mythbuster episode!!![]()
Yeah, I knew I'd heard it from somewhere. TBS.
Oh yeah... similar to the "if you keep anything in your car" will it kill you? (ie tissue box, bobble-head dog, etc) or maybe that was the same myth?
wait,i worded that way wrong... i hope people will know what i'm talking about...
(not that these things will just come alive and plot your murder...)
hahaha You never know...![]()
But I don't know anything of the myth you mention.
I think it's the same one.
is this what you meant, morgan?
Ohh, right, yes.
There was a new episode last night where they used tanks to pull apart two phonebooks. I don't know if they suceeded or not. Apparently the force of friction from 800 pages (ea.) layed one on top of the other is enough to withstand over 5000 something-or-others.
Yeah.. paper's actually pretty strong if you just pull the ends away from each other in a straight line - it's only when it twists that it becomes easy to tear
Yes Sir M, thats the one!
Ahhhh.... I never saw that myth
A bit ridiculous to be honest...
Sir M, this is for you -
thanks dek ![]()
there are some mighty fine beards in there....Dangle-Swaggles anyone?
From a scientific standpoint, that pedigree chart makes less sense than the one I drew in class today... Needless to say, there were a lot of complicated lines and it didn't turn out in the shape of a tree...
I'm partial to the soup-saver myself... sounds useful
I'm probably more of a Chilean-Classic myself...
Stupid overgrown burnsides!
LOL

HAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh dear....
I hope someone did that as a joke...
ah ha...finally found the topic with the beards in....

Thanks for finding it for me! I wanted to post this

So, where do you stand on that chart you put up Sir M?
no more beard for me...was forced to give it up ![]()
i'm pretty sure i could pass for one of those baldies when i get my hair cut...
...not necessarily a good thing...![]()
LOL! I don't believe ya for a second
That first picture reminds me of Jesus. The exact thought that ran through my head: "Well, I guess you can find a holy image in anything these days"
OOPS...
HAHAHAHA
That's a pretty funky looking jesus
A, B, and N look like him... sorta
Sending ...
