the worst office etiquette breaker is "the topper"

go on, tell a story, any story.. the topper will come in at the end - yeh I did that once, but better. yeh I had one of those, but I had the gold version. Yeh I went there, but we were in the vip section....

sometimes we get together and tell an obviously fake over the top story and wait for the topper to top it.. clown.

We've got someone at work way worse than that.

That thing is pox. Tears every time.

[Howard Moon]

doss, teach me the ways of the glad

1. Flip tab up, it will take 4 or 5 little flips across the length of the box to get the whole thing up. No need to slide finger.
2. Fold tab back across perforated edge
3. Tear along perforated edge

 

[Howard Moon]

well here is the problem then

i've been sliding all along.

in this time poor reality I have no time to take 4 or 5 trips to different parts of the box.

You'd be flipping along the same edge you're currently sliding, no different part of the box in play.

In this time poor reality, doing it properly will save you time rather than butchering it (and possibly your fingers).

im waiting for the next click bait fb post

you've been using glad wrap wrong all this time!

In a splendid (bird pun appreciated by audience) gala event the 2017 bird of the year award was held this week. It was a thrilling count that went down to the bird wire, with under 100 votes separating 1st and 2nd

Perennial underdog the bin chicken, southern ibis looked to have snatched a most unlikely victory but in the end the stock standard Magpie prevailed.



It's a good list, very dissapointed my favourite bird the satin Bowerbird couldn't rate even a mention... I shall be petitioning for a voting bloc from bf next year. Put out your blue stuff.

In what world does a Wedge Tailed Eagle finish below any of those birds? My faith in humanity is shattered, gone I tells ya.

if i'm compiling my top ten.. its way different!

ill let you know I am a big fan of the ibis, it just gets about, no shame in being a tip rat or a bin juice drinker - I respect that.

the tawny frog mouths best work gets unnoticed, great bird! looks like a kids beanie boo toy

but yeh the wedge tail is majestic, needs to be way higher!

I love a rainbow lorikeet and an eastern or crimsom rosella to brighten up the yard...

my fav bird is the satin bowerbird.. I sat there one day for hours watching one mimic everything around us, it did a perfect kookaburra - and I love how they hoard blue things to build their bower.. anything to find a lady!

sulpher crested cocky a classic.. that shril noise... sounds like home

the crow.. where is the bloody crow?

...........and another thing

bird watching, they little house they sit in on a lake to spy on birds is called a 'hide'

but is it a verb or a noun?

In that context it's surely a noun. What you're doing when within such a structure is the verb form.

you are verbing in the noun.



...and another thing..birds. How can some be so intellignent and some be so dumb?

your muttonbird, will be born in a little hole on phillip island in Australia.. will migrate to the top of Alaska halfway around the planet then somehow make its way back to the very hole it was born in to lay an egg

your seagull will accidently fly into a shopping centre and not be able to figure a way to get back out the automatic door...

hmm

My old man had a mate who owned two Seagulls (not sure how someone can own a seagull, so let's call it 'they hung around') in Ascot Vale.
They were called This & That. Came when called & walked around inside his house and sat with him when he watched TV.
They followed him everywhere. Maybe they weren't geniuses but they weren't stupid.

Sparrows are stupid.
