Oh that's easy.
I'd find every 'childrens entertainer' in the world and drown the feckers in it.
Clown freaks without makeup those sods are... they're only step away from twirling bow ties and custard pies.
Bastard undercover clowns... you're not fooling me.Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

On the management speak tip - I HATE 'Leverage/leveraging' i.e 'leveraging our brand'. It has a fairly clear financial definition i.e. multiplying an investment by borrowing. But in an organisational context it seems to mean 'use well' or 'use' or 'gain advantage from using' - but I am not entirely sure.
I also HATE 'Learnings' - i.e. 'what are the key learnings we can take away from this brainstorm'. What is wrong with good old 'lessons'.0 -

Old steel road bikes converted to FG/SS - there's a gear hanger there for a reason! If you want to go FG/SS, there are frames with proper track dropouts, spacing and geometry.

Leverage can refer to a strategic advantage can't it? Usually in a dispute...?0 -

But then how are you going to get them on picture blogs? There simply are far fewer picture blogs for *geared* vintage bikes.... :P0 -

I hate the fact that I have now worked so long in financial services that I pronounce 'leverage' 'leh-verr-idge' like the septics rather than pronouncing it like 'leave-er-idge' like a good English girl.0 -

I detest everything every member of the Coalition Govenment does every day, including putting milk on their cornflakes in the morning, if they do that.
But I can't bring myself to label it as 'irrational'.

Free newspapers.
they contain nothing but inane trivial news that was all available online the day before and are typically wielded by the most inconsiderate people to grace PT.
space on trains is already at a premium. I don't wan't someones armpit in my face just so you have space to read your sub-tabloid rag because you don't have the mental fortitude to cope with listening to your own thoughts for 30 minutes.
as soon as I see the little stacks of them outside the station it gets my hackles up.Hat + Beard0 -
Yes, but if it's Tory milk & Tory cornflakes it's totally rational.Riding on 5310

My k/b; the n & the g are mixed up surely. Everytime I type somthign that ends in ign it comes out as ign. Anythign, everythign does. What's goign on? Is it a US k/b layout do you think?
Edit - I see BR's ponsey autocorrect s/w didn't pick that up did it? Ha.0 -

Really? I never knew that. :P
what gave her away? The correspondence course PhD she got, or her complete lack of basic human / plant biology knowledge (she thinks that chloroform can oxygenate your blood; presumably the sun really does shine out of her arse, or that the water in food you eat does not count towards your daily intake - you have to DRINK it)Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

I use the US International keyboard - it's handy for using accents - but the layout is still the standard QWERTY. Which k/b do you have installed?0 -
Staffy type dogs - hate them with a vengenance. My poor lurcher, who's a sensitive athletic non-violent type, has been attacked twice in the last week by the little chavvy thugs, almost resulting in a bout of fisticuffs with me and the owner.
Last attack was last night, owner was off his head on drugs in local park. Nice. So probably not an irrational hatred at all as I have cause0 -
oh and both attacks were at either end of the city, so not the same dog0

Sporting commentators who bring too much of themselves and their own opinions into commentary - you are a commentator, not a pundit. I don't care if you're bored or if you don't like the referee or if you disapprove of a team's tactics, and I don't want to know.
Describe the game and otherwise shut up.

Yep, Green should be a background colour not a foreground noise.0
