This massive tour party of yanks who are slowing up the queue for breakfast by pointing at all of the strange Scottish foods such as mushrooms and scrambled eggs and asking each other"I wonder what that is"
Aaaaarrrrgghhh!
Get out of the way! There is a lovely train at Waverly waiting to take me back to Gods Own Country.
When this lot left the US it must have shoved up the national IQ by fifty or sixty! It's a fucking sausage you moron!!! Put it on your plate and shift.

One day, I may wish to sell my house.
I'm beginning think it's time to create a list of real estate agents I won't use, based on whether they've put flyers in my letterbox offering to sell my house (at least 3 this month - today's offered to do it by Christmas). This house will be for sale when the resident wants it to be sold. In the meantime, back off!

Fuckwit councils whose idiocy makes them unable to link empty housing with homeless people and put the two together. The questions "Why?" and "What the fuck?" spring to mind.
On the flipside, big bags of yay for the Focus E15 Mothers though. ( their Facebook page is here ).
(I wasn't sure if there was enough in this to merit a thread, hence posting about the Council's fuckwittery here. Maybe someone cleverer than I can can wring a discussion out of it. But not here. That would be wrong. I learned that at our little chat.

And the same for landscapers, pizzerias, and everyone else who leaves flyers on my front door, fully visible from the street. Why not just put up a big sign saying "Guess who's not home! Come on in and help yourself!"?

Now I obviously can't start a tangent in this thread but I would like to agree with you but I can't think of a way round it without incurring hostly wrath.
But totally unrelated and apropos of nothing...

I'm actually compiling a list of ones i won't use, on that very basis. And if it's just flyers in your letterbox you're getting, it could be worse... paid schmucks acting for real estate agents who are too important to do their own direct marketing are the main source of our dinnertime-telephone-interruptions. I hear from as many of them as from house washers, carpet cleaners, ventilation-system-installers, insulation consultants and sky-fucking-TV all put together!

There is plenty of opportunity to discuss Host and Admin days in the Styx, and indeed Caissa has already taken up that opportunity several days ago.

Just so that I am clear. It is inappropriate to comment on a hosting or admin decision in hell? In other words, hosts and admins are off-limits for hell calls when they are acting in their hostly or admin capacity? I want to know because some of teir responses in Styx are desrving of a hell call.

TICTH people who don't object to what I say. I want people to post and say "that's a load of twaddle". Purgatory would get deadly tedious in about 3 seconds if no one objected to what anyone else wrote. "That's nice, I agree with all you've said". ![[Projectile]](graemlins/puke2.gif)
Object, tell us when we're wrong. Stir things up and be Unrestful. Go for it. Don't leave it all up to the hosts.

OK, slipped in while I was posting. Probably totally improper, but ...
Your question is a matter of Ship policy and so should really be asked in the Styx. I'm feeling naughty so here goes. Host rulings or other official actions should be raised in the Styx. If a host posts officially in a manner that you think is inappropriate it's best raised in the Styx if you feel you can question it without getting personal yourself. If the only way you think you can respond to an official post is to rant and swear and call the host/admin in question nasty names then don't do that in the Styx. Bring it to Hell. But, you'll be painting that big target on yourself ... may the Lord have mercy on your soul.
Of course, if you're objecting to something said without any official status then treat it like a statement by any other Shipmate.

I should, of course, add that I can't imagine a situation where something posted by a host or admin in their official capacity would actually warrant a call to Hell. A gratuitous call to Hell for a host/admin posting in their official capacity would certainly qualify as not showing due respect to the Crew.
And, we're now well into Styx territory ... so, as always, if anyone wants to carry on the discussion of whether you can disagree with hosts and admins, do so in the Styx.

Okay.... <Consults Hellish list>
Yes, that would be you - today's first consignee: the dentist who persuaded me to have bleaching on my discoloured front tooth. To enable this bleaching, you undertook a lot of scraping of the root canal and interior of the tooth, yes? This weakened it catastrophically and I now have to have a crown. You've now left the country (clearly knew I'd consign her to hell when I realised) and I am light 100 bucks four days before payday. So, down you go, you incompetent wankspangle.
Next. You again. My boss: this one always finds that the kids are really accomodating when one has lost one's voice. Let's be real here. You don't *speak* to the kids. You put a text book in front of them and woebetide any poor creature who dares to ask a question. However, you comments give me guilt, so that I feel I shouldn't phone in sick, and foolishly attempt to teach with laryngitis. I accept my part in the farago, but really, be a better manager, would you? Put your staff's welfare before what you perceive as inconvenience to yourself. Move along down please, you insufferable cockwomble.
Ah. Next in line: Car Share Colleague. Now, O Exalted One, I know you are a very important person. It's clear that we're all here just to make life easier or possibly more entertaining for your illustrious self. It's a shame for you, really, that you've reached almost thirty years of age with such an inability to tolerate disappointment. Let's review: Tuesday, your Lift To Work (that would be me) is ill and needs to go home. Your Lift To Work, shouldn't have come in at all (see above) but hey ho, life's disappointing sometimes. You, it would seem, are in a bad mood about some other shit - sorry, I try really hard to care but you're just such a spoilt brat - so when you Lift To Work comes into your class to say: I need to go home, your reply is.... what? .....Sorry to hear that? ....Hope you feel better soon? No. Your reply, as befits a brat of your standing, is: How am I going to get home?
Now, we are at this moment standing in front of your fifth years, so I *don't* suggest that you get home by teleport, or skipping.... or various other grosser suggestions. No, I say, well, one of the other people going back to Edinburgh.
"Let's go into the corridor." You reply.
Once there: "I'll have to do a whole staff email." You say.
"OH DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN!!! A WHOLE STAFF EMAIL!! YOU MEAN, YOU'LL HAVE TO EMAIL THE WHOLE STAFF???!"
I am, by this stage, lost for words. I'm an English Teacher. How often do you think *that* happens? All I can think of saying is:
"Well, I've got the dentist on Thursday, so I'll let you know if I'll be available to be Your Lift To Work on Friday. Otherwise, I will not exist, clearly, and will spend every moment on my sickbed berating myself for the horrific inconvenience I caused you. Ye gods. A whole staff email! <bites knuckles>
We part, you with a face that would turn milk, me, feeling quite hurt to be treated with such disdain. *Then* what you did was, you went back into your classroom and slammed the door. That probably makes you look like a massive dick in front of, let's see, the kids in that room (who I taught last year and really liked me - HA!), the boss and decent chap in the rooms opposite, and the department mammie two doors down.
How about this then? You fuck off to hell via the A1 in a shopping trolley from Asda (*), doing the macarena because you're SO. FUCKING. SPECIAL. you two-faced, self-absorbed thundercunt.
<checks list> Marvellous.
* Other supermarkets have shopping trolleys. Thanks also to Buzzfeed contributors for the swearing.

And if you're on battery power, better hope that the battery lasts until the updates are done. You certainly don't want to plug the power supply in now, as the battery will "learn" to confuse its semi-discharged state with total discharge necessitating the power supply, and before you know it you'll be charging it every 30 minutes.
Windows XP didn't used to delay shutdown in order to install updates. It just waited till the next reboot or power-up. When will Microsoft learn not to ruin a good thing by "updating" it?

One girl has been found unfit to stand trial. One said she could feel both the bad and good possibilities, and one said she was surprised to feel no remorse. (Have a hard time remembering which was which.)
The girls may be tried as adults. (Wrongly, I think. Not generally in favor of doing that.) If convicted as adults, they'll go to prison for a very long time. If as juveniles, they'll be out at age 25--which might give them a chance to get well and have a life.
Peyton, the girl they attacked, crawled out of the woods where she'd been abandoned and found help. She nearly didn't survive. However, she's going to school this term.
I have a hard time understanding how 12 year olds could get so deeply into that kind of fantasy.

Sorry for the typos I really did look at Preview.
And I even used the wrong smiley in the first post, rather than the "mad" one.

TICTH (or perhaps not Hell as I wouldn't want even him to really go there but he's a pillock for all that but I need to rant) the bloody evangelist who is shouting into a microphone at some rally in the middle of town and his ravings are being carried on the still evening air into my sitting room.
I HATE stuff like this!
Thank you for listening and goodnight.

People who're rude, complainy and shouty for no reason at all. I'm doing my job, and I'm trying very hard to be nice and helpful to everyone, but because something crawled up your arse and died you have a nasty pop at me. More than once. Go fuck yourself with a hedgehog's overcoat, asshats.
