It sucks when:

* a handful of Oz politicians and their minders use taxpayer dollars to make more Ist class overseas flights in 12 months than the entire tourist contingent of Australia does in 48 months.

* taxpayers are funding politicians accomodation to the tune of $1200pw while in Canberra, yet some have mansions they rent out at rather large rents and are millionaires with huge gov't salaries, lurks and perks already.

* they have absolutley no shame and keep dipping into the public purse to live, act and travel like royalty.

* Guy Fawkes or somebody of his ilk isn't around to put a stop to it with a carefully planned expolosion.

* bombarding Parliament House with curried cabbage gas bombs would be a waste of time because their bullshit stinks far worse.

Yeah, Oz is reportedly in recession... yet our politicians are spending millions on themselves and seem to have no intention of stopping.  Bastards should use their parliamentary expense accounts to purchase ropes... then USE them.

True, but if yer don't pay 'em tha bastards lock yer up.

It sucks when:

* political jokes get elected

* the elected political jokes think it's fine to spend up big at the expense of the Public Purse.

* you gotta shake your head in disgust cos the political jokes aren't funny.

* I couldn't persuade the Parliamentary Plumber to install exploding toilets.

It sucks worse when:

* you pull up your zipper and catch the end of your nob.... and I don't mean by a bit of excess skin.

* you're totally busting and your zipper gets stuck firm.

* you've been to the loo and walked two whole blocks before somebody tells you that your zipper broke and not everything is tucked in.

* you're on the throne in a public convenience and a limbo dancer appears under the door, scares the bejesus out of you and your sphincter clams tight.

* the toilet paper runs out before you'e done and ask the person in the next cubicle to throw over a roll... it's empty as well.

* the faucet in the hand basin breaks, wets the front of your pants, so you stand up real close in front of the hand dryer and get strange looks cos everyone thinks you p!ssed yourself.

Now that really sucks.

    What sucks is when your whole life you wanted to fly in a plane but couldn't because it was so expensive and now one comes along and offers a flight for only $9.00 and you have $8.99 and you can't find one more penny because your unemployed.

Yes... that does suck worse, but I'm still in pain from my zipper incident so that will take precedence until I'm fully healed LOL!

* you wake up 5 minutes before the alarm clock was set to go off and you figure you can get five more minutes but keep opening your eyes every thirty seconds and then finally you decide screw it, you'll turn it off and get up so you turn it off but lay there and fall asleep and wake up an hour later...

This was a board on About.com and it's the Phoenix, AZ. section. so it would be the "expert" on Phoenix who runs it. She actually quoted my remark about being surprised that a personal attack wasn't deleted, so she obviously was offended by that! And here's what started it all. I said I wondered why if people move to Phoenix and hate it here, then why not go back home instead of running it down and complaining. And the expert, while admitting the response was nasty and uncalled for, said I started it by saying if people didn't like it here, then leave.

OMG! How could I say such a horrible thing!   Right?

I'll go hunt up the link for you, but it's a long thread! lol

There is SOOO much stuff in that thread it would take you all day to sort it out. so I just copied the mods post!

Here it is:

"Frankly, I'm surprised your response wasn't deleted by the mods. This kind of attack usually is, on most boards."

Hello,

Just so you know, I did see that post. It was nasty and uncalled for, but it was in response to your post that basically said if you don't like it here, why not leave.

So, that was it. It quotes what I said at the top, so that must have stung, and she answered because of it. I did notice that something posted after this had been deleted, so maybe there was another attack on me, I don't know. 

It sucks when:

* you procrastinate so much that you have brain fart and think up crap all day to write here in the threads.

* you haven't seen the outside world in so long, writing crap in the threads is the highlight of your day - week - year.... um, decade.

* you're so engrossed in writing crap in the threads you tell all your visitors about all the crap you've written.

* you've had a very tiring day thinking up crap, so you go to bed dog tired but dream about all the crap you're gonna write tomorrow.

* you wake up the following morning and can't remember a single bit of crap you dreamt about.

* you go to an ageing hypnotherapist to get it out of you but he's suffering old timer's and can't remember any of it, either.

* you know that you need to get a life but writing crap in the forums is way too much fun.

its sucks when you cant remember if you had a shower this morning (at 4pm in the afternoon) and your only 35.

It sucks When:

* you remember having the shower but forget if you used soap or not.

* you shave while in the shower to save time but cut yourself cos the mirror's steamed up.

* you have a nice clean shower then find out part way through drying yourself that the cat has left a deposit on the towel.

* you were in there earlier sticking down tiles and find you've mistakenly picked up the wrong bottle to shampoo your hair.

* you shower with a lady friend to save water and.... um, you 'grow' on her so can't turn around to wash the soap off your back.

* you shower with a man friend cos there's huge fines for using excess water and you're afraid to pick up the soap.

It sucks when you wake up and creak from parts you only ever heard about in anatomy class....only to find out you cut class that day.

Can anyone tell me what the spleen is for? I cut the day they did 'spleen'.

*It sucks when you hear the surgeon say, "Whoops!". Especially if it's a circumcision.

*It sucks when you realize the Doctor cut class the day they learned about your problem.

*It sucks when you're the Doctor, and need an operation and the same Nurse you balled out is told to put the catheter in.

*It sucks when your Surgeon is the guy you almost flunked in Anatomy.
