I expect so and I wouldn't blame him. There's hardly ever anyone within 40 yards of him. And if anyone manages to set up a goal for him we'll probably **** sell them.

It's certainly not standard, but I think if they've had a few piss takers or deals falling through, they can put any restreictions in they like.

I'm now looking forward to Drat criticising Teresa May returning from her holiday due to the problems in London. Bloody shameless publicity seeking, if you ask me.

"...But, but, I bet you're a tory"

"Refused" who, if anyone, has requested him to come back? I'm sure if Boris were cycling down the streets of Tottenham, the looting would have stopped immediately. You're a living **** parody, Drat.

I don't think I have a leg to stand on. I've worked for them for nearly 2 years, but as a contractor. I was employed directly by the company when I was promoted roughly 6 weeks ago, so was still inside a 3 month probation period. the contract says they can get rid of me whenever they like, I assume they have highly paid lawyers who've ensured that this is correct. Probably. My boss pretty much has the same attitude as me when it comes to this type of conference, so I'd usually have been fine. Unfortunately I got myself in the bad books of someone about 5 pay grades above him. Was only going to end one way, I think.

I went for the "I'd rather have spent 3 hours doing my job than wasting my time listening to corporate bullshit" approach. In retrospect, that may have been a mistake.

Despite getting promoted 6 weeks ago, I've been given a week's notice, then I'm out of a job. **** my life.

I fell asleep during a 3 hour (three bastard hours!) speech by my departmental director. I swear, every fifth word was synergy. I've been summoned to a meeting with my line manager first thing tomorrow. Bollocks.

There's a ~1,500 page document doing the rouns which was apparently written by him and sent to a group of his friends shortly before the events started. Amongst other things it has sections detailing exactly how and why he did what he did.

What a refreshing attitude. Easy to take a knee jerk reaction after something like this. Compare and contrast with the attitude of the US, and to a lesser extent the UK, over the last decade.

When he was asked by a reporter why he did it, whilst being dragged away in handcuffs, he replied "I cannot answer that as I am currently in the middle of a police investigation". Marvellous. I've not laughed so much since George Bush had a shoe thrown at him.

The local thieves didn't take long to find out that if you scan the items and place them in your bag it deactivates the alarm on the bar code even though at that point you haven't paid , and then you can just pickup your bag and walk out without the alarms going off maybe they have fixed that flaw now , anyone want to give it a go and let me know how they get on ? Depends on the type of SCO, the main supplier of them within the UK, NCR ( which provides them to the likes of Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Boots) hasn't ever built any sort of detagger in to the SCOs themself, so the on hand employees have to deactivate the security tags. Which company was this?

It seems to be quite widespread to completely drop apostrophes from signs. One of those ghastly new Tesco Metros, that continue to multiply like some sort of bacteria, has a huge sign inviting the public to "see whats in store". I briefly considered sending them a letter in which I could chastise them, but considered that their reply would rape our language to the extent that I'd implode due to impotent outrage.

What sort of mentalist thinks a good catch would be a single man who turns up without children to a 4 year old girl's birthday party. This hypothetical woman needs to be sectioned.

I, a grown man, without any children, have been invited by a friend to their child's birthday party. Their 4 year old daughter's birthday party. I asked if it wasn't so much a 4 year old girl's birthday party as an excuse for a general get together, and was told "No, we're having clowns and everything". Why, just why.

It's delaying the inevitable. Give it a year or so and the Pop Idol watching elecotorate will have forgotten that they were supposed to be outraged, will still be reading the S*n, and Satan's representative on Earth will get his mits on the rest of Sky anyway.

Anyone who says O instead of 0 is an uneducated simpleton. It's a **** letter. You may as well say L instead of 1.

Is it standard for them to give people a day's warning? Raid the bastard's house at dawn.

There's no "campaign", it's just you, you **** muppet.

You can completely skip Vashj'ir and level in Mount Hyjal instead, it's a much better zone (apart from the jousting).

Don't think it's been mentioned yet, but what do people think about yet another CoD release not having dedicated servers?. BF3 is going to shit on this from a very great height.

The fact that Stewart Lee has been given another series that seems to consist almost entirely, word for word, of material that he's already done. Most of his fans have already seen 80% of the content, and it's not exactly going to pull in other viewers, at 11:00pm on a Wednesday night on BBC2. Pointless.

I have similar feelings. The original was great, I think a large part of that came from it being such a surprise, no one thought some stuff thrown together to make the Orange Box was going to be GoTY. It just doesn't have enough substance or variety for me to think much of it as a stand alone game.

You'd think they'd tell us what it does.
