What pi$$ed me off today was the huge spider clan that came into my flat while I am trying to tidy it.
Thats 4 spiders in the space of a few minutes and I lost the Daddy in my tools downstairs.
Death to all spiders coz I've got my M/X boots on  _________________ Fish are friends, not food |

Looks like just the fairing, clipped the clutch cover but apart from that the fairing looks the only victim.
Phew - all that crunching sound got me worried. Could have been worse - imagine if it came off the other way and had hit the road instead....
Soon have her repaired!  |

Acronyms
what would we do without them
AKA
LMAO
WOMD
and one from many years ago when I was learning to drive
MSM - Mirror Signal Manouver
or is it ?
alternative theories on this one have been presented but the favourite one for the moment is
Motorcycle Straffing Manouver
This can only occur on a multiple lane carriageway and involves multiple vehicle on the inside lane pulling into the side of you in succession
If you can predict an MSM in advance and manage to avoid the MSM then you can deem the MSM not to have actually occured, becoming an AASM (Advanced Anti Straffing Manouver). If however you are caught in the middle of an MSM and Power through or out-brake your opponents this is known as an MSMD (MSM Denial).
In the unlucky case of MSM success and yourself becoming a victim of an MSM you can of course deem the vehicles used to be WOMDs
The only real answer is
teach the b@st@rds to drive properly
who would guess that i had a bad journey to work this morning ! |

been at home for two weeks now and had to go in today for check up and remove stitches, gets in hospitaland was sent for xrays first, walks in to see consultant and he went off on one why wasnt i wearing my neck collar i said they didnt give me one when they discharged me so now have to wear one for next eight weeks not good then i said my back has been very painfull sinse i got home he sent me for more xrays and go back so see him he put them on light panel and looked at them his face dropped well it lookes like you have broken your back as well, oh fuck i said now i have to go back in the next week for a ct scan so they can check that the crushed vertebrea no8 does not cause any problems with my spinal cord
now i know i was in a bit of a state when i first went in but how the fuck did they miss a broken back

NHS?
No, it's not another acronym, just an answer/reply to badger1666!
That's really bad news, but I always thought that if you had a broken back, it meant total immobilisation? _________________ Adventure before dementia. |

holyyyyyyyyyyyyyy sh** mate.. dont know what to say, except that this just highlights the complete incompetance of the NHS...
when i dislocated my shoulder in March i went into A&E, and they wheeled me up in a wheelchair and the ambulance guys (who were fantastic) went off and i was just left there for about 20 mins i'd say, even though the A&E was empty.. then the nurse came over and just wheeled me to one side, didn't bother taking me to a cubicle, and i'm holding my arm which has the bone halfway down my back rather than in the shoulder joint.. "Oh, i dont think you've dislocated it, i reckon it's just a broken arm" she says like she's extremely pissed off at me.. then notices a great depression where my arm should have been comin out of the shoulder she didnt say much after that.. i think i'd know if it was dislocated (having done it 4 times previously..) then she left me sitting on a bed for another 30 mins with no pain killers at all.. until a different nurse decided maybe it was hurting a bit
long story short (bit late now) 12 hours later they decided it was about time to put the shoulder back in..  |
