It depends if you're ahead of Ad Orientem or not. He's driving the car behind you at the traffic lights who hits the horn if you don't move within a nanosecond of the lights going red and amber, let alone green.

Put card in machine. 2 seconds. Type pin number. 3 seconds. Type amount of cash to be withdrawn. 3 seconds. Receipt? Never! No. 2 seconds. Wait for cash. 4-5 seconds. Take cash and card. 2 seconds. Done!

Lady sitting in front of me on the bus: I really don't want your hair in my face as you wave it about trying to tie it into braids. Shouldn't you be doing that in front of a mirror at home? And I hate to tell you, but the end result looks like you braided your hair on the bus rather than in front of a mirror.

These days, ATMs are really electronic banking interfaces. I have deposited che(ck|que)s at ATMs, printed bank statements, paid bills, ordered replacement checks, and basically done almost anything I can do in a bank (including obtaining cash).

TICTH: The MU, or certainly the local branch of it. After having had a Sanctuary lamp banned by order of the PCC (because a little red candle that was barely noticeable was 'distracting' to them), I'm back to waging war on the placement of their banner, which is over large and takes focus away from the Altar when in the Sanctuary, but they will have it no other way.
Stop being so arsy about your banner and go do something that is actually worthwhile in our community!

TICTH laptop computer screens. Mine has developed two blind spots that look like cockroaches lined up one behind the other, ever so slowly growing as they wait for their next meal.
I'm either going to have to replace the screen (not a do-it-yourself task by any means), buy an external monitor to use when at home (but what about when I travel?), buy a new laptop, or learn to live with the cockroaches. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Thought about starting a separate thread for this, but too despondent to muster up the necessary venom.
Australia deserves to be called to Hell today. For this disgraceful policy, which continues our violations of the human rights of asylum seekers in our region.
TICTH our useless government for trying to act tough prior to the upcoming election.
TICTH our vicious opposition, for doing their best to distort the facts on asylum seekers coming to Australia.
And, finally, TICTH the electorate, who apparently welcome these abhorrent measures.
The shame. ![[Waterworks]](graemlins/bawling.gif)

TICTH the fucked-up systems at So Cal Edison. Level pay plan, my fat white ass! When SCE doesn't make it high enough, I have to pay a big bill at the end of the year. When they make it too high, the amount I'm over-paying just goes up and up and up.
And while I'm at it, whoever it was that came up with the great idea for people to get a break on their electric bill for agreeing to turn their A/C to 78 (or whatever, I don't know) can get fucked. How about a break for those of us who have never had A/C? In this climate if you live in a properly built building, you only need A/C if you're very old or very sick. There ought to be a huge tax on the goddamned A/C units in the first place.
And if you don't live in a property built building, MOVE!

TICTH TESCO (unoriginal, I know)
Why?
Because they have decided to discontinue - with no notice - the only laundry detergent that was proven to be effective against MRSA, C.diff, HSN1, etc, etc {Halo non-bio laundry detergent).
Reason? Because it was a 'slow mover' and 'there are other products available'.
First, there is NOTHING else that works as well.
Second, it moves slowly because there is a limited market for such things - but they're people with compromised immune systems, on chemotherapy, transplant patients, premature babies, etc.
Yes, can be bought on-line but I don't necessarily want to buy a box of 6 at a time. ![[Mad]](angryfire.gif)

I'm not consigning them to Hell. I'd rather send them to an off shore processing centre on Naru, Christmas Island or PNG. Much more effective, and probably more hellish.

I had to wait five minutes at Walmart (which I already hae) to have a manager validate that I was over 18 so I could buy a 97c bottle of white-out.
If you're 17 they'll let you drive a car and you can probably get into the army without much trouble, but try to correct typographical fuckups and we all lose our minds!
So to the kids who decided to huff fumes from office supplies, TICTH. Learn to get drunk and smoke a bowl like we did in our youth.

TICTH the current arrangements for access to platform 12 at New Street Station in Birmingham. In order to buy a magazine while I was there I had to go through four ticket barriers. However the thing that really got my goat was the sight of a disabled woman on crutches struggling with the stairs that were the only access to and egress from platform 12 and the fact that she would have to travel a good distance once at the top in order to be able to sit down. The only seating is in the other section of the New Street Station, the one through two sets of ticket barriers.

Platform 12 is the exception to every rule (maybe apart from platform 1).
Right for ease of communication I am talking "old" and "new" concourses.
Access to the "old" concourse is totally by steps. Access to the "new" concourse is by a single lift. There are no other accesses. The single lift from the "new" concourse was broken.
All other platforms have 2 set of steps and lifts to both concourses plus an escalator with one set of steps at least.

and:
"Her most important job right now is participating in the neurologically vital process of bonding with her kid, which, you think the higher brain function of a future monarch would be important to people."
That is all.

All the fucking morons who seem to be trying to fill my daughter's head with vapid bullshit. Yes, she does have a vagina, but no that doesn't actually mean that everything you give her has to be related to decorating herself. For fuck's sake, why would a 5 year old need a purse, let alone two? You freaks even gave her a marker set with pink, dark pink, baby blue, light green and purple to decorate her purse with. Have to make sure she doesn't have any unfeminine colors like red or orange or yellow huh. Next you'll give her that pen for women perhaps? I particularly loved the person who seems to be apologizing for giving her a clever word game that involves reading "My son picked that. But (brightly) I gave her the bracelet!" Well, guess what my 1yo son is much more interested in the bracelet than she is--it's shiny! On the other hand, my girl and I were laughing our asses off over the sentence game. She's has more things than she needs, that's sure not the problem, but every effing person who was not a Best Friend* or family member gave her a uber-girly thing. Amusing since she's as likely to wear camo as fairy-princess gear**, so they surely didn't get her tastes.
*the people she claims to be married to
**I like when she wears them both together.

That has got to be one of the most awesome things I have ever read on this thread.

The small vagina-owners in my house seem to enjoy decorating themselves - it's a rare day when they're not covered in paint, markers, or possibly food and/or mud.
And stamps - all the kids at music class like getting an inked stamp on their hand at the end of class, but some like having every available inch of skin covered with the things. Guess which kind I have?
Oh, and stick-on "tattoos". They don't care what it is - they'd wear an endorsement for a local politician or business as happily as a cartoon character or cute girly flower thing.
But bracelets, purses, hair clips and other girly-girl stuff? That gets in the way of actually doing stuff.
