    "just hang your exam results round your neck and go as a fckin idiot."

    My mate called me today and told me he'd got fired from his job, I asked him why?
    and he said it was because he kept asking the customers if they wanted "Smoking or Non-Smoking"
    I said "That's a bit harsh... but to be fair, the correct phrase is Cremation or Burial!!"

    If you are 40 or older you will think this is hilarious!!!!
    When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious shite about how hard things were. When they were growing up; what with walking Twenty-five miles to school every morning.... Uphill... barefoot... BOTH ways Yadda, yadda, yadda
    And I remember promising myself that when I grew up, there was no way in hell I was going to lay a bunch of shit like that on my kids about how hard I had it and how easy they've got it!
    But now that... I'm over the ripe old age of forty, I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today.
    You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood, you live in a FCKING UTOPIA!
    And I hate to say it, but you kids today, you don't know how good you've got it!
    I mean, when I was a kid we didn't have The Internet. If we wanted to know something, we had to go to the bloody library and look it up ourselves, in the card catalogue!!
    There was no email!! We had to actually write somebody a letter - with a pen!
    Then you had to walk all the way across the street and put it in the mailbox and it would take, like, a week to get there!
    Stamps were 5 pence!
    Child Protective Services didn't care if our parents beat us. As a matter of fact, the parents of all my friends also had permission to kick the shit out of us! Nowhere was safe!
    There were no MP3' s or Napsters! If you wanted to steal music, you had to hitchhike to the record store and shoplift it yourself!
    Or you had to wait around all day to tape it off the radio and the DJ would usually talk over the beginning and fuck it all up! There were no CD players! We had tape decks in our car. We'd play our favorite tape and "eject" it when finished and the tape would come undone. Cause - that's how we rolled, dig?
    We didn't have fancy crap like Call Waiting! If you were on the phone and somebody else called they got a busy signal, that's it!
    And we didn't have fancy Caller ID either!
    When the phone rang, you had no idea who it was! It could be your school, your mum, your boss, your bookie, your drug dealer, a collections agent, you just didn't know!!! You had to pick it up and take your chances, mister!
    We didn't have any fancy Sony Playstation video games with high-resolution 3-D graphics! We had the Atari 2600! With games like 'Space Invaders' and 'Asteroids'. Your guy was a little square! You actually had to use your imagination!! And there were no multiple levels or screens, it was just one screen... forever!
    And you could never win.
    The game just kept getting harder and harder and faster and faster until you died! Just like LIFE!
    You had to use a little book called a TV Guide to find out what was on! You were screwed when it came to channel surfing! You had to get off your ass and walk over to the TV to change the channel!
    NO REMOTES!!!
    There was no Cartoon Network either! You could only get cartoons on Saturday Morning. Do you hear what I'm saying!?! We had to wait ALL WEEK for cartoons, you SPOILED LITTLE GITS!!
    And we didn't have microwaves, if we wanted to heat something up we had to use the cooker! Imagine that!
    That's exactly what I'm talking about! You kids today have got it too easy. You're spoiled. You little a.seholes wouldn't have lasted five minutes back in 1970 or before!
    Regards,
    Grumpy Gang

      Hi there everyone.
      As to your question Mick without sounding miserable I learned today that things are even more drawn out. Not an easy November for me I am afraid.
      But one day at a time.

        Mae everybody, congrats on 60 days Starty TT,your post sounds weary,work issues still? Mick,I often think about how kids' lives are now versus back in the day and I don't think I'd want to be a kid these days,sure they have a lot of luxuries we didn't have but maybe they have too much and it's making them lazier and more spoiled, I'm mostly talking about my kids,plus they have a lot more pressure to be a society driven image physically than we did,I dunno just glad I grew up when I did,shoot even Louie knows how to work my phone better than I do,he was such a doll last night, I'll post pics on Facebook later but he was a little Ghostbuster and got so many compliments haha,it was a fun night much love to all and I hope we all have a great AF Tuesday
        I have too much shit to do today and tomorrow to drink:sohappy:

        I'm taking care of the "tomorrow me":thumbsup:
        Drinkin won't help a damn thing! Will only make me sick for DAYS and that ugly, spacey dumb feeling-no thanks!

            Good evening Abbers!

            Thanks for starting us up in a brand new shiny month Mick
            I have to admit that I am a card carrying member of the Grumpy Gang, ha ha!!!
            Yep, had a busy day but it was OK. Good luck with the implants tomorrow!

            Starty, congrats on 60, yay!!!

            TT, you just never know....
            things can change so keep your chin up, right?

            Pauly, your little Ghostbuster was adorable. Now teach him how to brush his teeth after all that sugar, yikes!!!!

            Det, I love my coffee too but a, only doing half caff these days. My blood pressure thanks me

            Hello to all & wishing everyone a peaceful & restful night.

              MAE ALL...

              Mick...thanks for the startup. I bet you'll be glad to see tomorrow come and go. At least you'll get your favorite pudding again. Yes things have calmed down a little, at least no more anxiety, but still lots of stress at work. Whether I get the job or not I'll be glad when it's over.

              Starty...congrats on the big 60 :goodjob: Read your post this morning and it made me feel positive about the new month. Thanks for that.

              TT...wow, I'll be glad for you when the troubles are over. They've been going on for awhile now and that light at the end of the tunnel looks very far off. :hug:

              Pauly...I'm with you, glad I was a kid when I was. I think you speak for a lot of kids these days and they all seem to have a feeling of entitlement. Glad your Halloween was a good one.

              Det...you got that right. Now I want to go out and buy a coffee bean grinder. Xmas is coming so might have to drop some hints.

              Attempting meatloaf for supper tonight so wish me luck.....:smile:PPQP

                Hi again peeps, back from a good productive day at the shop.

                Being that we are in a rather quiet country spot we got no tricksters or treetsters last night which is good because we are
                sans candy. I guess i could have given out sweet potatoes

                PPQ, good luck on the meatloaf. My last one came out splendidly which is neat as I don't make it very often. tonight was oven roasted chicken and a crapload of mixed veggies. So yummy and now I'm getting sleepy which is good. Off to podcast and drift soon.

                wishing you all a fantastical Wed to come..... be well
