Irritations

[Herlock Sholmes]

The madness of putting ice in beer.

How would you go about eating this?
...

Well, first thing you need to do is make sure it's NOT a SoyBurger or any of the other faux **** that are being forced on us nowadays. (I don't mind being given the choice, but GIVE ME THE CHOICE!!! Don't treat the information like it's a National Security Secret.) Then I thank the Good Lord (or Whomever- I'm not religious, but some things you just need thank SOMEBODY for) that I FINALLY got Something worth the $23.95 (after coupon) they are charging me. Then I check to make sure that they actually included a REAL pickle rather than the damn end slices that you usually get (or the rib piece of the lettuce, or end of the onion). Then I take my time and enjoy it bite by bite by bite... (With a REAL good burger, after the third bite, you realize you NEED a bib, so you look around for the napkins that they ration out like parchment that they wrote the Declaration of independence on...)

Hmmmmmmm, burgers...

Burgers that are so thick that it’s impossible to eat them in burger form.

Which of course automatically brings up a classic, American commercial from years ago. Interestingly, that phrase became a debating point when questioning the substance of someone's argument.

Im not to swayed either way about the so called scientific evidence , there has been shown enough stand alone evidence that makes him a better suspect than the ones that have been mention. The way i read your comment , the bitterness comes from the fact you just dont like that Thompson as a suspect . Even when the evidence presented confirms he indeed make a excellent one .

I'm not bitter. I just don't see Thompson as a good suspect.

[FISHY1118]

If Thompson was shown to be a viable suspect then I would be only too happy to add him to a small list of viable suspects. However there isn't the evidence to put him in that category. And there have been outlandish claims about Thompson such as it has been scientifically proven he was Jack the Ripper. This is not true at all. None of the so called evidence presented is scientific. So what is there for me to be bitter at?

10 minute movie trailers that show you EVERYTHING that's worth seeing in the damn film. This is ESPECIALLY true of comedies that make a deliberate effort to show EVERY humorous scene. Or thrillers/mysteries that give away the ending.

Impressive insect-related knowledge CF.

a) Your line of work
b) Your hobby/interest
c) Google/ Wikipedia

You're probably right, Doc!

I just hope that this particular wasp woke up today with a crushingly sore head and a pervasive sense of shame at his behaviour yesterday!

Actually, Ms Diddles, worker wasps, bees & ants are neutered females. Male Hymenoptera exist ONLY for Reproduction, and then they die, die, DIE!!! (Insert Maniacal Laughter here.)

And now you know.

You're probably right, Doc!

I just hope that this particular wasp woke up today with a crushingly sore head and a pervasive sense of shame at his behaviour yesterday!

And if he is of a particular philosophical bent he might contemplate the ultimate question - to bee or not to bee.

[Ms Diddles]

I think they get intoxicated on late summer fruit, and become the insect version of lager louts.

You're probably right, Doc!

When you fancy a whole takeaway pizza to yourself, but out of courtesy you ask your wife if she wants any.

She replies "no!"

But knowing what she's like, you ask her again. Perhaps you should get 2 pizzas? One each?

But she is adamant this time.
A resounding "no."

So you order a pizza.

It arrives soon after.


And before you've even had a chance to open the box and savour that sweet smell of cooked to perfection pizza... guess who now wants some?

[The Rookie Detective]

When it's a Saturday afternoon, and you turn the telly on to watch something that doesn't require an App, but there's Rugby on BBC1, Formula One on BBC2, Horse Racing on Channel 4, Golf on 5, and an FA Cup tie between Rotherham and Burnley on ITV...

eek.
