Dont ya just hate it when...

[bennylaird]

Your so bored with your job you just cant be bothered?

You have more bills than you have pay?

You have things you want to do with your life and know your just dreaming?

Everything you own seems to break or malfunction?

Your chooks crap on the doorstep and you only realise after you step in it?

(Feel free to add your own):( :( :( :(

[Lignum]

You need to take up woodworking to alleviate the stress Benny;)

[bennylaird]

You have all the tools but no wood?

[bennylaird]

You have no time to get into the shed?

[bennylaird]

You only find negatives with everything?

[bennylaird]

Your xmas bonus is not paid in cash but as a christmas function?

[Daddles]

You log onto the WWF and find that all the posts are by bloody Benny:(

Richard

that's a hint son, stop talking to yourself;)

[bennylaird]

Why? I'm the only one that listens?

[Cliff Rogers]

....that's a hint son, stop talking to yourself;)

Yeah Benny, shut up & go & do some retail therapy. :D

[bennylaird]

And then I said to myself...........


Self? Don't you just hate it when................................

[bennylaird]

You wake up in the morning and re-read your red wine influenced posts?

[Wongo]

Do you need a hug?

[bennylaird]

She's right Wongo, Fridays not far away:D :D :D

[MurrayD99]

Take the rest of the year off. Go to your shed.... lock the door.... hide, enjoy. Measure thrice and then again before you cut otherwise depression may increase....

Or.... start a DIY best-practice wiring thread......

[Wongo]

Measure thrice and...

cut on the wrong side of the pencil line.:D

1. Only once and I was gone before they knew i'd started

2. Since I don't earn income, almost always

3. No. If I want to do it, I'll find out how and anyway, my current frame of mind says I'm past my use by date so ....

4. Yep and it really gives me the dry runs.

5. Don't have chooks, but I've got the bottom half of a chick that fell from grace and was half eaten by "The Scanner" and the rest offered to me. Its sitting at the back door and for some reason, SWMBO wants it relocated. Its not like its moving or mouldy or anything!

May the Bluebird of Happiness Shyte on your shoulders, or better.

Is Friday going to be Thursday? Be a shame to knock-off for the year and still only on page 1. Anyway, Friday night, few beers, then go caress the saw.

[bennylaird]

Maybe we can get a special consideration early start to the Friday thread if we ask nicely?

Would keep the other threads from drivel and after all it's a silly season week?

[Wongo]

Benny, what's your care factor at the moment? Mine has dropped to 0 a few weeks ago.

Let me out let me out.

Can't see why not. Just have to use a clever title thats all.:cool:

[bennylaird]

What about "Stealth Friday"?

[Gra]

Benny, what you need is to go and "Test Drive" one of those new Trumpies in Peter Stevens front window

P.S. been there done that, told them to take it and shove it....

[bennylaird]

Stop it Gra, your making my mouth water. Need to get my license quick..........

[jmk89]

I hate it when the illness that is serious enough to mean that you can't go to work also means that you can't go and do shed things (Currently I am laid up in bed with the worst attack of gout I have ever had - painkillers just keep the pain below screaming in agony and the thought of the pain in my right big toe from standing up at the bench makes my eyes water). Bugger,Bugger, Bugger:mad: :mad: :mad:
And so many projects I want to do.....Bugger, bugger bugger:mad: :mad: :mad:




In case you missed it - I am feeling sorry for myself and want to say Bugger, bugger bugger:mad: :mad: :( :(

[Wongo]

Oi Oi Oi

[bennylaird]

Bugr mate, feel for ya. Doesn't gout mean giving up red wine as well?:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Murray, is that "She Who Whines", or have you guys abandoned sheep for other things more politically correct? I can't keep up with Kiwi culture.:) :confused:

[Honorary Bloke]

Sometimes the angst in these threads so overwhelms me that I reach for my translation of Nietzsche and read a few chapters of Thus Spake Zarathustra and when I have done with that I always come to the realisation that there is, indeed, at least one writer more twisted than those on this Forum. But just the one. :rolleyes: :D :eek:

[jmk89]

Bugr mate, feel for ya. Doesn't gout mean giving up red wine as well?:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Fortunately not, just drink in moderation (diuretic which increases uric acid concentration), keep off the liver, kidney.brains and other offal, tinned fish and rich dairy and drink water. And take the tablets...

Relax, only got a few wethers anyway. Just had them shorn. Last year the wool cheque was $35 I think....

Saw... big blue one.... not so much a whine as a powerful purr!

Nothing wrong with us!

[bennylaird]

But just the one. :rolleyes: :D :eek:


Make that 2:D



Pedagogy of the Oppressed
Paulo Freire

[Honorary Bloke]

Don't know that one, mate. But I'll see you Freire and raise you a Bertrand Russell. :D

[jmk89]

I see everyone else's philosopher and raise them one Wittgenstein

I don't know if you take anything for the gout but I take a drug called Colgout (need a doctors prescription for it) and I just never get it now. But I can certainly relate to the pain and the thought also makes my eyes water.

Yeah, baz, I have heard of it - yesterday the quack said that since we have started on anti-inflamatories we should keep on for this attack, but then we may need to look atsomething like Colgout or Zyloprim. One apparent side-effect of Colgout is that it can lead to the trots. Any reports on that front?

Bob, I always thought it was Also sprache Zarathustra, which I thought translated as Zarathustra coughed as well!!
Now I'm really confused and I'll raise you all a matching pair of Descartes and throw in a DeSade for entertainment value.

Well, DeSade certainly adds entertainment value. :eek: :D You're not going to make me dig up Plato's Republic are you? And of course, my old friend Jean Paul Sartre's Nausea which makes me nauseous. Although Existentialism is the go, I suspect. If Zarathustra coughed, it was due to having a hernia examination. :p

Dont yu just hate it when....... You grab your systainer and its Not locked:( and you have to spend the next 30min gathering and resorting all the goodies inside

The Philosopher's Song (Monty Python)

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya'
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY ...

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's !

If an inanimate object starts to give you grief it must mean it is thinking; if it can think it can feel pain. Put the boot into it! Extension leads are showing signs of malice too....

How's that Plato?

I don't really get the trots with it and I take two a day. The side effects of the trots is dose related and the trick is to balance the dose so as not to give the side effects and to give relief from the ailment.

I have a drug book called "The Australian Drug Guide" that tells me all the side affects of all the drugs that I take. (My son reckons I am a bigger druggie than he ever was. At least all mine are legal. Current count is seven prescription drugs that I take.

The problem with gout is that it is caused by too much uric acid in the system and the kidneys don't excrete it properly from your body and what the uric acid does is form crystals in the joints and this is what causes the pain and not only in the big toe but can actually form in any joint but the big toe is the most common place that it occurs. What the Colgout does is dissolve the crytals and helps the kidneys get rid of the uric acid from your body.

I don't know about anti-inflamatories but I do know when I ran out of Colgout once and didn't take any for a fortnight and ended up with an almighty attack of gout I went to the chemist and got the script filled within two days the gout was gone and started to get relief within four hours of taking them.

Naahh, Existentialism has been Thoreau-ly done to death:D

Especially when the goodies hide under the plastic moulded insert, or its assorted dominoes or the assorted drill bits for the C12:eek: :eek:
