The totally off-topic thread

Oh no. That new slopely show which I could best describe as "Thank God You're Here at A 45 Degree Angle" is on the TV at the Place of My Employment. It's called Slide Show.

I just don't think that show will get a foothold in HKG - gotta register all the slopes.

 

[JessicaTam]

More straight view, less slopey?

The fact that it looked normal, but was clearly not.

Good harmless fun.

I hope that slope's registration isn't dodgy!

I've had a sheltered life. I'm stunned by this glass that's round at the top but is square at the bottom.

 

[cove]

There was a drop left in the bottom of that glass. That is almost Un-Australian.

 

[JessicaTam]

The real trick is to drink out of a glass that is square at the top.

It's ok. I refilled it.

Oh goody, it's Oh Pun season!

Oh goody, look. More recycled puns to look forward to in the off topic thread....

I'm guessing it is like a funnel?

Using a straw is cheating.

I'm guessing you'd drink out of the corner rather than by the sides.

 

[Mal]

I have drunk out of a square cup before. Not too hard. Agree the corner is the best way.

Now who has seen those utterly impractical glasses that have a 30 or 40° slope from one side of the top of the rim to the other side?

You could always change the topic!

So the guy on the tv is predicting the Wallabies will beat the All Blacks by 8!!!

I'm predicting more sporting misery for Australia

The old version is on TV tonight, Miss 4 is very excited!

I'm excited myself. I haven't seen this movie in years. Veruca Salt has just gone down the chute - LOL.

I'm glad that you're excited. It is frustrating when people say that they are excited for something but they type exiting. "Woohoo, I'm really exited for this product or service."

Mmm as expected its an absolute flogging

It's at least as kosher as the licence for my pet fish…

Yes, you'd think when you score 29 points against the 'Blacks, it was going to be a good start to this year's Bledisloe…
But as you predicted…

I am doing my work.

Difficult to ignore when this issue is constantly raised as if we are all responsible for the lack of productivity. Tarnish everyone with the same brush so to speak.


That is the unAustralian part I never quite understood.

Reward the slacker?

I have not decided what I will do yet. Annual review is coming up next week.

I hope you haven't got a pointy haired boss!
