Invasion of the lobster people

[BigonaBianchi]

Down here the dog poop problem isn't to bad...most of them are so poor they take it back in a doggy bag for later.

vigalanti gangs pinning down dog owners and puting the dog poo inside the owner, useing a similar entrance to its original exit? a bit far you say? mmm maybe but how many second offences would there be!

Its the 3/4 length Umbro shorts and exposed ingerland tatt up the calf i cant stand.

Along with the trainers , Club football shirt,& a beer belly the size of the Isle of Wight.
Have to chuckle,these fools dress up in football strip,when the most exercise most get is walking to the bar.

 

[tyred]

Heaven forbid anyone would actually get out and about to enjoy the nice weather.

The place I work at is an urban nature reserve, and we get the same thing - at least they are the ones that bother to pick up at all. We're at a complete loss to know what more we can do - there are special bins, and we have a stock of bags to give people, free.

Last week, I suggested someone dress up as a giant poo, lie in wait for someone to not pick up, and then follow them around, all day, with a suitable sign explaining why. The idea was well received, I fear I may have got myself new job...

Branding the owner might work, the letter P would be apt, it could also be mistaken for pervert and they get a thrashing from the local Umbro wearing beach goer.

We don't have any common people where I live, I've heard they're quite ghastly though.

You might have one or two...You may just need to raise the bar below which you judge them as common.

Even the nicer parts of riverside Surrey and Buckinghamshire have residents who fall into all or any of the below categories:

1. Pronouncing 'something' as 'sumpthink' or 'properly' as 'propply'.

2. Using the reflexive personal pronoun 'myself' incorrectly ("John, Debbie and myself will be leading this project").

3. Not knowing the difference between the subject and object personal pronouns. ("This was given to John and I by the Mayor").

4. Putting vanity plates on motor cars.

5. Not having a basic knowledge of Latin and Ancient Greek.

6. Thinking it important for a handbag, bicycle or item of clothing to have a known brand written on it where visible when in use.

Or you could just do what I do and sneer at everyone. I find it saves time. I talk to my wife only because she (now) shares my surname. If that weren't the case, I'd have nothing to do with her.

i failed on 2,3and 5,ohhhhhhhhhh the shame

If it was not for the so called lobsters invading these precious beaches, local buisnesses would close down, speaking as a comitted cyclist and husband of a lobster (got permission to type that).

...erm...yep that's true, but they can still behave.

 

[RhythMick]

Visiting in laws in Exeter at the weekend we cycled to Exmouth and back, doing our own lobster impressions at the beach. What made me laugh most was the white lines representing the cycle path along the front and just how few people even seemed to realise they were there. I was actually glad of the bell on my borrowed bike, saving my voice.

Interesting, do you actually say, "John, Debbie and I will be leading this project" ?

 

[colly]

I'm a half lobster.
Well I am ever since lunchtime when I fell asleep in the sun with my top off. It was only 20 mins.

 

[Boris Bajic]

I wouldn't say that if you paid me! I would NEVER say that!

Debbie has 'backstabber' as a default setting and is sleeping with Gary to be shortlisted for the New York job, while John is a spineless, work-shy waste of everybody's time. If I tried to lead a project with those two, it would be a disaster. Do I even have to mention Change and Enhancement '07?

I'd rather say "Malcolm, Dave and I will be leading this project". I can trust Malcolm and Dave...

As if B7 would ever allow Malcolm to do anything that threatens their precious lead on the Upgrades and Sunlit Prioroties Pathway....

But yes... and by the same token no. I wouldn't. Unless it became expedient to do so. It's complicated.

Nicely put Boris. I've never trusted that b*tch since Paris...

 

[Boris Bajic]

Nicely put Boris. I've never trusted that b*tch since Paris...

Why do you always have to mention Paris? Why do you have to do that?

Right in the middle of the restaurant! Right in front of everybody!

How do you think it felt for me? And don't pretend you didn't know they'd already decided who was going to win the team award.

That was my best suit...
