I imagine if you had it would have ground their gears. They would have sighed and calmly explained that when they said they had no chicken they meant that they had no chicken pieces to sell, not that they had no chicken of any type on the premises.

I presume you do understand that the chicken pieces are different to the chicken strips used in twisters or the chicken they use in the burgers. Anyway it seems you chose to take what they said more literally than they intended just so you could be more annoyed than you needed to be.

Not sure what's worse the fact that there are shit fucks like this in our society or the fact that we let them exist at all. These bastards should have their throats cut.

I never said I was annoyed by it. It just gave me pause.

obviously it means that maori are suspicious that there is a deliberate campaign against the poeple of ruatoki.

i did notice a bit of a shift on the reporting though...
eg the line: "There was a public outcry in October following the so-called anti-terrorism raids at Ruatoki "

at the time, they werent reporting using terms like "public outcry", "so-called" and "anti-terrorism"

instead they were saying things like "activist outcry" and "guerrilla type terrorist training"

lol at the media manipulating public sentiment.

"They are so amazing - what a fabulous show,'' Wendy told Sunday News.

"They had a good look at my bra.

"It was such a golden opportunity I watch it every single week.''

Melitta Swanepoel, 34, was hauled on stage and dressed by Trinny and Susannah.

The nurse didn't mind being man-handled by Trinny and Susannah, who are famous for getting up close and personal with their subjects.

"I got a bit of a grope, but it didn't feel like that because it was Trinny, and she does it to everyone!'' she said.

Did you try stabbing it with a screwdriver?!

and more importantly, did you replace it with a Fram filter?!

Yea stabbed it, but it was a pair of multi-grips that did the job in the end. Totally munted the thing in the process.

Nah not a Fram unfortunetly... hopefully this car will be gone by the time another oil change is due

I took off the oil filter on a car that hasn't had a WOF or reg in 10 years (my project, so filter had been on there 10+ years) someone hadn't oiled the seal before placing it, had over tightened it, AND had pinched the rubber seal between the lip on the engine and the lip on the oil filter....

Long story short, stabbed a screwdriver through it, turned the screwdriver and it TORE the filter, like around its circumference. Couldn't get a set of vices in there (tight space, big engine) so i got one of those nail mat things welded a short piece of iron to it that extended it past the heads, flatted the end of the iron so i could get a set of vice grips on it and then a iron bar OVER the handle of the vices to give me some leverage twisted it untill the nail mat had bitten in real good and hauled away.

2 hrs later. off. Fucking mission.

/story end.

Was watching NBC news in the afternoon on Sky and saw Americans complaining about high Petrol prices. Around $1NZD, is high apparently.

Anyway the lady they interviewed was saying that she has been forced to work from home for at least 2 days a week because she can't afford to fill up her vehicle. All the while standing in front of her huge double-cab type GM 4WD.

The film/TV cliche that women are more quick and graceful while men are slower and clumsier, despite the fact that all the world records involving extreme speed (e.g. sprints) are held by men.

Similarly, the cliche that skinny people with wafer thin arms and legs are capable of faster movement than fit muscular people just because they're lighter, when in reality the opposite is true.
