What is new in your little world?

[Whiskey 7]

Went out on the town last night to an Eagles and Creedence Clearwater Revival tribute concert.

Entertainment wasn't too bad at all but the venue seating arrangements left a little to be desired.
Can't have it all I suppose

Australian Prime Minister changes in party room coup yesterday.

Malcolm Turnbull will be sworn in as Australia's 29th prime minister today after a political coup saw him reclaim the Liberal Party leadership from Tony Abbott.

Girlfriend just bought an RS6 estate. Now we can do 200 MPH with a wardrobe in the back.

FTFY. Shapeshifters, etc.

Started to learn how to slackline.

Here's a photo of some guy I know who got into the papers for illegally slacklining across a couple of buildings under construction (naturally he has chosen to remain anonymous).




No, I'm not doing anything that crazy.

[mrd]

That seems ah... awfully fuckin' risky. Guess that's the point. But what happens when one of these guys falls and kills someone on a sidewalk on impact? I don't see a safety line on the first pic, but the viewing angle is not ideal.

[obsidian]

He has a teather attached to the slackline.

[syp0s]

That looks akin to my three year old shouting "LOOK AT ME DADDY!" while she climbs a tree.

[seremtan]

sure, if the tree was hundreds of feet high and the branches were all 1" thick, i.e. not at all

[syp0s]

I'm saying it's showing off.

I'm sure there'd be 100% less people practicing this if other people didn't see it and say, "woooooah".

[HM-PuFFNSTuFF]

did you take those photos Obs? Even doing that would have scared the piss out of me.

[vesp]

Pretty cool obsidian - hard skill to master!
Have you seen this? It was doing the rounds on the interwebs last month

you old.

I sent a letter of complaint to the Manager of the club as apparently 'no allocated seating' these days means you are not guaranteed a seat

If I pay for a show I expect a seat.

I just got an apology. Excerpts.

.....it would seem that there was a break down in communication with you over the seating arrangement for this event.


.......this particular event like many we have had in the past, was designed as a limited seating event, meaning that not all quests would have seating. We generally have approximately 60% seating available for such events.

......with all things new we don’t know of problems until the event has happened, so all we can do is learn from this and use it to improve and ensure our presentation of future events never allowing our valuable patrons to have a negative experience at our club.......

......allow me to offer you either two free tickets to another of our upcoming shows or a gift voucher for the two of you to have a dinner or lunch at our expense.

[YourGrandpa]

You seem to be keeping busy by finding things that aggravate you. Or maybe because you're older everything that isn't as good as your best experience upsets you. 'No allocated seating' has ALWAYS meant you're not guaranteed a seat. If you often find yourself frustrated with the places you go or the people you meet, it's likely you that's the problem. You might be better off finding a hobby that keeps you at home where you're the one in control of the outcome. That way the only person that can upset you is you.

GLHF.

[xer0s]

Everyone ignored Gramps' post/pictures of his trip

[syp0s]

Whiskey, you come across as a real prick.

Luckily, you're really old, so collectively, people can breathe a sigh of relief once you die. I really mean that - it will be good once you are dead. Then people who probably hate their jobs won't have to waste their time writing grovelling missives to you on account of you being too fucking stupid to understand common terms such as "no allocated seating".

[xer0s]

lol

[xer0s]

Whiskey, I'm genuinely curious. How many complaint letters and phone calls do you make each year?
