Holy thread resurrection. I can't believe it's been nearly 3 years since someone posted on this thread.

We have a minor redecoration of the office kitchenette happening. Today I popped into the office to drop some files off, and noticed that the new layout meant that the fridge was on the opposite side of the room as it used to be. This gave me an idea.

I've swapped the door handle round so it's now on the "wrong" side - i.e. the door pivots on the same side as the handle. It's very difficult to open the door with the handle on the wrong side and I expect it'll cause a lot of confusion on Monday.

Will report back.

I've always wanted to do a full on pants down wee at a urinal. Never had the stones to do it.
A chap that I used to work with used to go for a 'sit down piss' every now and again to waste a bit of time at work.
I quite regularly do a german when i've had a couple at home or just fancy it being more relaxed.

It's also a good excuse to get a few minute peace playing on the internet.
The middle of the night wee is always a sit down wee surely? No need to put the light on and wake yourself up too much.

Friday evenings after a hard week I always treat myself to a luxury wee, use the time to hide from children and have a look at web

We made a return visit recently and excitedly headed towards the candles again but Dunelm have stopped selling them. Spoil sports.

This thread resurrection came at the right time. I hadn’t done it for a while and I work in a new office so I’ve not done it here before, the old turn the microwave down to the lowest setting. See how long before the complaints start!

Not me, or my ‘friend’, but somebody defecated into a dishwasher at work in one of the break-out kitchenettes.

A little niche for my tastes, but there you go.

That's not childish. Even toddlers don't do that.

That's just f*cked up.

I agree, as dirty protests go you’d have to ask yourself why!?!

Well, yes - absolutely disgusting. It was during a round of compulsory redundancies, fwiw.

They had to shut down the entire section of the office until the ‘caaancil’ had investigated and had evidence that the equipment / units had been destroyed and replaced.

The wife and i had chinese food last night ( special fried rice and crispy shredded spicy beef ) and i had a couple of bottles of Doom Bar to wash it down.

Some complete end of a bell in a van got all shouty and sweary because i didn't move out of his way as he obviously had a need to be in The Range quickly today. Spur of the moment decision, decided to follow him in made a guess on his route round the decorating section wandered ahead of him, dropped a properly rancid bottom burp and moved off to find the wife.

about a minute later i heard a now very angry voice shout
" oh my god, that's disgusting FFS!!"

Left to go off elsewhere and spent about an hour giggling about it.

Go careful with that, there is the potential for the dozy sort to not notice their food isn’t cooked properly, potential for food poisoning, maybe

that’s true, there are some right thick bds where I work that probably wouldn’t realise it’s not warmed up.

Was it Princess Margaret who burnt both her feet getting in to a scalding hot bath?

I decided to put washing up liquid in my mothers dishwasher once instead of a traditional tablet.

I didn't take a photo sadly, but it made a right fking mess of her kitchen. I found it rather amusing biggrin

Creeping along in stop-start moving traffic on my way home this evening where two lanes merge into one and the traffic zips together. I’m in the near side lane, white van man to my offside but hanging back a bit politely in ideal zipping in position, but 4x4 driver following tight behind me trying to block him out, bright lights shining in my rear view mirror and bugging me in the process.

Anyway, I go slowly and generate a gap ahead, then give it a quick squirt to make a gap behind me. White van man reads the situation perfectly, also gives it some gas and neatly zips in behind me, 4x4 man left hung out to dry. I love it when a plan comes together biggrin

That’s not childish, that’s great! Can’t stand people who create merging aggro for the sake of it. The ‘queuing’ mentality...
