futility files

This might be the best example of futility I’ve ever seen.

Lesson 1 in how to get people to flood a porn site:



Telling someone to not go directly to a porn site is like trying to tell someone... TO NOT GO DIRECTLY TO A PORN SITE.

caution: bears

One of the bosses in my office responsible for recent mass redundancies and lay offs wears a ridiculous scarf.

I suggested it made him look a bit like Rupert the Bear but one of my colleagues disagreed, saying that Rupert was essentially harmless.

But I don’t know. I remember Rupert being a bit of a cunt.

retired hurt

This could very well be my first ever sports injury.

I don’t count the time I got a sudden case of asthma at the rugby try outs in high school.

Because I don’t have asthma.

Because I was faking it.

Because I fucking hate rugby.

Anyway here is the injury:

It's small, but it's there...

It’s from a blister. Caused by BLISTERING SLAM ACTION on the foosball table!

BLAM!

Look at it… it’s right in the centre of my palm. Like a sort of babyfoot stigmata. I am the Jebus of Table Football.

Hallelujah!

you get what you pay for, or not

"Waste of time and money"? You want "waste of time and money"?

Ok, Ok… I’ll give you "waste of time and money".

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you… The London Bus iphone app.

To be fair I have used this before with some success, and I believe it cost me just 59p but this screen shot is what I was presented with when I asked it to get me from Waterloo Station to my work on Gray’s Inn Road in the fastest possible time. Keeping in mind... this is a London BUS application.

The first step is really where the app fails I believe.

NB If I got in a cab to Holborn I could complete my journey to work in that taxi for about another £2. About the cost of a bus ticket, I’d say.

Take a taxi to Holborn Station? How ‘bout NO, you worthless piece of technoshit!
