Registered 4 years agoYeah, but they're all commies that live in a communist utopia, so presumably they're all blissfully happy. On the other hand I'm slogging away to single-handedly try and keep this country out of a triple-dip whilst you shirkers are all having weekends and days off.
Oh well, day off on Saturday; fifty-three days of consecutive work, and to think my parents said I was lazy!

Hardly. I've been contracted by the archaeological section at the local council to work on two projects and as they're both relatively short-term I have to keep going to my permanent part-time job at the weekends.

And both projects were conceived before Dicky III's exhumation - I'm legit, not some stinking archaeo-newb. -

Registered 11 years agoYesterday I cycled 20km including going up the steepest hill I know, bought a crate of beer then cycled home*.
* Okay, so the steepest hill is only about 20m end to end, but those 20m are /steep/, man. Also, the place I bought the beer from is one of my local supermarkets, so only had to cycle a couple of clicks carrying it.Cubby didn't know how to turn off sigs!

Certainly a bit more manly than driving down the shops, probably tuned in to Heart. -

Registered 6 years agoI cleared the drain outside our kitchen earlier. Fucking thing always gets clogged up and I spent half my lunchbreak ramming rods down the thing to shift the blockage. Got covered in stinking gunk, but it's clear! -

Registered 3 years agoI changed my 20 month old son's nappy just now. He had been backed up for 4 days, did a dirty great boulder, then as I turned round to put the nappy in a bag, he did a second looser one that sprayed over my t-shirt.
I didn't gag at all.
/is manly.
/is now covered in shit.

Registered 7 years agoMy ex brother-in-law's a plumber. He gave me this super-duper clog remover liquid that he told me to be "extremely careful" with. I don't know what the hell that stuff was, but it took care of any clog in seconds.
I'm pretty sure it had some kind of acid, because it melted a paper towel that I used to wipe the edge of the bottle. It also put a hole in one of my pipes.
I want more of it, though! -

Registered 11 years agoI don't get it. Despite taking a dead rodent out of the p trap/u-bend pipe. The sink drains really slowly Which is in fact an improvement as it didn't drain at all before. --------------------------------------------------------------------

Sulphuric acid isn't available to the general public?
