Even a spokesperson for spokeswoman for pro-marijuana organization Ohio Families CANN


The spokeswoman has her own spokesperson! That organisation must be selling it n'all.

The innovators: a new U-bend to prevent the buildup of fatbergs in sewers | Business | The Guardian
http://www.theguardian.com/business/201 ... rgs-sewers

The real test will be the cheap 'food' my sister buys from Asda and the like - it already smells like it's seen a sewer or two before it's heated up.

If it's not your parents, it's your sister! *laugh*
Just move out already! Move in with mates or something until you can afford your own place.
You'll prolly find that your blood pressure drops too! Independence AND health benefits, win-win for you.

Yes. Yes it is. She left it until the last moment to print gig tickets today. Her laptop doesn't work, my dad's is held together with duct tape, and even though I actually got them printed by advising her in simple steps, she was still talking to me like I was some call centre drone. By the end, I wasn't helping her, I was helping her friend who was relying on her.

I've told you, currently getting a mortgage (what I really want) would be even less sensible than my family. The job I'm in, apart from it's likelihood of changing location, is full of insecure management types and I've been so tempted to throw the head up any number of times, but that's not wise with a mortgage!

Look, I've been building up cash, believe me. But I'm not gonna screw it all up just because my family need shooting. I'd be doing exactly the sort of thing that makes them so fcuking dumb - doing things with no thought at all.

I'm low maintenance bar a Coca Cola and Predator figure habit :lol: (no car, barely any booze, or proper addictions), my job is reasonably flexible, and I've no dependants. I'm in a reasonably unique position, which means I'm not gonna let a pack of d1ckheads make a decision for me by accident!

What you say all makes sense, it's just that sometimes it sounds as though I'm likely to hear about you on the local news, having been taken down by a dozen police (I'd normally say armed police, but what others here may not know is that the police over here ARE armed).

Give up you 20-a-day Predator Figure habit and you'll reach your goal much more quickly. ;) :lol:

I hope you can sort something out. Moving into a "WG" (Wohngemeindschaft or shared flat/house) is part of the right of passage in Germany. In fact, I know people in their 50s who still live in shared accommodation.
