suzysunshine7 | 16038 comments When you click on the Sizes and Colours you pull up even more funny, weirdly obscure and downright bizarre ramblings?!! It's often obvious that some Sellers are using something like Google Translate to create Listings in the English Language but these really are something else, aren't they?

Like a Computer caught rambling on to itself in a new-found stream of consciousness?!!

WTF is Woozworld? I'm reluctant to Google it in case it's something dodgy. And who the hell is siberiahills? And where are these children I supposedly have?

"Woozworld, is a virtual gaming community and social network service founded in 2010 and headquartered in Montreal, Quebec. Woozworld allows tweens and teens to connect with each other through customizable profiles and interactive activities."

Can't help you with finding your presumably non-existent children.

I'd keep a close eye on your credit/debit card bills for a while, just in case if I were you.

Thanks Derek. I always check my debit/credit card statements anyway.
Now, what shall I do with those 1,000 Wooz & 2 faces I supposedly now have?

Brass Neck | 3979 comments In an idle moment (as opposed to the usual excitement of lockdown life) I went on the local news website and found these headlines;

Family heartbroken as ashes disturbed by burglar ransacking bedroom shrine to son who died drying his hair
(the mind boggles but he had a clot on the brain totally unrelated to his tonsorial titivation)

Man gets stuck in mud trying to rescue his dog on last Cleethorpes beach walk before he is put down
(I do hope the dog is rehomed after his owner's date with Dignitas?!)

Brass Neck | 3979 comments I did a search for Jack Rabbit Slim Best Of review and most of the results were pertinent but there, at the bottom of the first page, was an offering from consumer testers Good Housekeeping;

Would have thought investing in one of those would encourage much housekeeping? Very informative nonetheless.

Is the Cotswolds toppermost of the stinks because of all the city slickers complaining about normal countryside odours?


message 2573: by Brass Neck (new)

Brass Neck | 3979 comments That was my conclusion; just a load of bovine ordure really. They've never lived in the heart of Grimsby when a rare northerly wafts the balmy scent of the fishmeal factory over. Thankfully I haven't experienced that for over a quarter of a century but once smelt never forgotten.


message 2574: by Derek (new)

Derek W | 1365 comments Well the smelliest places I've ever been to are Gilroy in California (the Garlic Capital of the World apparently) and Bridgewater in Somerset when the cellophane factory was still open.

message 2576: by Helen The Melon (new)

Helen The Melon | 3419 comments Urgh, chicken farms are particularly pongy, oh, & pig farms too. Some of the whisky distilleries up here can be a bit whiffy.

Perhaps Gordon remembers these? There used to be a maggot farm/factory in Telford. Oh my goodness, the smell was unlike anything else, vomit inducing.
And the creamery at Crudginton used to get rather smelly sometimes. Oooof.

Brass Neck | 3979 comments Whitbread had a brewery on Lady's Bridge in central Sheffield. I remember occasions when the odour they released made me gag as a kid.

Applicable to Marmite factories and some less salubrious brothels.

A large notice in the window of our local independent stationery store announcing that the business is for sale includes the following statement - presumably an explanation for the decision to sell:
"We are re-aligning our value expectations "

message 2586: by Helen The Melon (new)

Helen The Melon | 3419 comments I think these are quite old but still amusing:-

BLAMESTORMING: Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible.

SEAGULL MANAGER: A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything, and then leaves.

ASSMOSIS: The process by which some people seem to
absorb success and advancement by kissing up to the
boss rather than working hard.

SALMON DAY: The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to get screwed and die in the end.

PERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE: The fine art of whacking the
crap out of an electronic device to get it to work
again.

ADMINISPHERE: The rarefied organizational layers
beginning just above the rank and file. Decisions that fall from the adminisphere are often profoundly inappropriate or irrelevant to the problems they were designed to solve.

OHNOSECOND: That minuscule fraction of time in which you realize that you've just made a BIG mistake.

HOW TO SPEAK ABOUT MEN AND BE POLITICALLY CORRECT (Umm, not sure about that!)

1. He does not have a BEER GUT - He has developed a LIQUID GRAIN STORAGE FACILITY.
2. Its not his CRACK you see hanging out of his trousers/pants - It's REARCLEAVAGE.
3. He does not GET LOST ALL THE TIME - He INVESTIGATES ALTERNATIVE DESTINATIONS.
4. He is not BALDING - He is in FOLLICLE REGRESSION.
5. He does not get FALLING-DOWN DRUNK - He becomes ACCIDENTALLY HORIZONTAL.
6. He does not act like a TOTAL ARSE - He develops a case of
RECTAL-CRANIAL INVERSION
7. He is not a MALE CHAUVINIST PIG - He has SWINE EMPATHY.
8. He is not afraid of COMMITMENT - He is MONOGAMOUSLY CHALLENGED.
