I could never stand the suspense of the "hanging drop" dangling from the eye bottle, waiting for it to fall into my eye.

Muppets that yell abuse if you don't want to drag from every set of lights or yell abuse if you beat them from a set of lights. On paper your too fast too furious turbo import will wipe the floor with my 9 year old territory. Heres a hint, learn how to drive a manual, if your in 5th gear by 55, its go no where left to go! Think I will avoid driving in the city during the silly season.

Reminds me of yesterday morning. My wife gets out the suncreen for our boy while he's out there in the sun playing cricket. She offers it to another lady and her kids. Few minutes later she queries what brand the sunscreen is. Its Cancer Council screen 50+ This lady says Well I'lll be making sure to stay away from that one. I've just rubbed my eyes and they are stinging, must have been that sunscreen. Maybe don't put the stuff in your eyes?! ![]() |

Don't you hate it when you cook the tea for the family , you have given the pan you cooked the snags in a liberal spray with the no name cooking spray in the yellow can .............. a bit later after tea you wander out to the kitchen to grab a cold one, then you notice the yellow can of ironing spray next to the cooking spray........ don't you hate that ???

As I was the contact for our company, I would get an email update whenever anyone enquired about an MSDS or hazard response for any of our products - good, bad or indifferent. Once such email noted that a person had put drops of cyanoacrylate adhesive (basically super glue) in his eye, mistaking the bottle for the eye-drops, as he kept both in the fridge. I bet he never made that mistake again. BTW - he made a full recovery, after visiting hospital, and having small chunks of glue removed over the following days. |

Posted this on Coles facebook page
G'day Coles, i noticed Chorizo on special last night at Coles Manuka. I thought to myself, "yew beauty my Fiancé can whip up a frittata, and then i can have some leftovers for work, that will raise moral". You could imagine my excitement when i got home, "babe i got a bargain from Coles and you get to cook dinner tonight". I grabbed a beer from the fridge and plonked myself on the deck overlooking Lake Burly Griffin, moral was high, the birds were chirping the baby signets were floundering around enjoying the sunshine, and i was having Frittata for dinner. You could imagine my disappointment when my Fiancé called me into the kitchen. Unfortunately for me they resembled dried up pieces of dog faeces, instead of wet, they should look like wet dog faeces. So now i get to have vegetarian frittata for dinner instead of the meaty chorizo goodness i was so looking forward to. Thanks for nothing Coles |

Their fruit tastes like nothing, its probably been picked green, sprayed with some crap, and been in the fridge since like 1992 or something and thats the good stuff. The regular stuff comes with extra flavouring, which is green and hairy looking and wins you a free weekend stay at Sunshine's premier accomodation the Sunshine Hospital and you get to sample their fine cusine at no extra cost.

Had a small cut on my hand and went to cabinet to get disinfectant. Ended up pouring vinegar over it by mistake - what a sting!

SO.....MY NEXT BRIGHT IDEA...
Thinks to myself, I should go to the local tip shop (resource recovery centre) & find something I can buy cheap & flip it to the local 2'nd hand shop. You know, & make a few bucks. Gets there, looks around the yard, finds an intact 25cc ROK arborist chainsaw..... it looks near new & IT RUNS!!!!! I walk back into the building & who's being served at the counter & says g'day to me.....the bloke who owns the second hand shop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FYI, the chainsaw's now for sale on Gumtree Tas. LOL (see vid link below pics for demo) ![]() ![]() http://vid1334.photobucket.com/album...pstzr1yhvg.mp4 |

reminds me of the feller, who was in in bed in an "amorous" embrace with his darling wife, reached for the vaseline, only to find to his detriment, after apply said ointment, that it was the vick's instead!!!!!

those little spoony things on the bottom of drinking straws supplied with a drink that you get from Hungry Jacks or Macdonalds......takes me ages to chew or rip them off.

Hooking my 2nd pair of glasses over my collar when not being used only to retrieve them and yank out a few hairs from my chest that got jammed in the hinge. Hate it!
Happens on a daily basis! Surprised I don't have a little bald patch there :-)

What about people at work who never reply to email. Infuriates me, especially when you know they are sitting in front of a computer with their inbox open in front of them....

In my defence, I do fill the jug to the top and boil it to make one cup of tea in the morning. The rest of it gets poured in the sink to wash my breakfast dishes. Logical and practical. Cheers!

Then they tell me that that person has emailed them 3 times now, but they just delete the email each time. WTF? How hard is it to reply and ask for more information or instructions? Or at least let the person know so they're not waiting on a reply that'll never come.. No courtesy.
