Jack-in-a-Box in Eagle Tower is pedalling this crap. It must be illegal to sell this in the UK because the ingredients are not in English. It also tastes bloody awful.

Is it unreasonable to expect the following flow of conversation when at a checkout? Me: Hi. Checkout Assistant: Hello. [Checkout assistant scans items ...] Checkout Assistant: That’s £49.96, please.

What can I say about this bloke that hasn’t already been said? He’s a racist. He’s simple-minded. He’s a thug in a cheap suit. He’s not very intelligent. His eyes don’t line up. He’s a racist.
MBNA – PITA

Who writes then? I just got this in reply to a meeting request. There was no other content in the message. Someone spent a lot of time writing this meaningless crap. The first paragraph is hilarious – any email that ends up in my Inbox is for me to do with as I please. Why [...]

Hi, Given that regular, plain-old tap water contains zero calories, I wonder if the survey data or research papers to back-up your claims are available? Regards Kibo
Kate Humble – Still Dumb!

On the BBC’s “The Frankincense Trail” she’s ended up in Saudi Arabia. She still thinks that we should interfere with other cultures. When talking to an official about the public execution of murderers and rapists: “Do they get pain-killers?” Well, duh, you dumb-fucking bitch – once their head has been taken off there’s no pain!
