My one and only thread. Thank you all.

8 weeks ago myself and my colleagues were told that the office we work at was going to close and we would be out of a job. Since then I’ve spent at least 4 hours a day reading posts on this message board.

I’d like to thank all of you who post here for two solid months of quality entertainment!

This is my last day at work and I’m really going to miss all of the banter, abuse and witty rejoinders that have been flung around!

I’m not posting this in the BBQ pit so I can pit my employers as they have given me a severance pay that will ensure I can buy lots of nice presents for my friends and family at Christmas. I’ll also not have to work for the next 6 months as I have enough money to see me through till June. :smiley:

I’m posting it here for two reasons;

Firstly, this is the forum that has provided the most entertainment over the last 2 months.

Secondly, I’m on a high at the moment. If anyone out there is in need of a target to rant at, have a pop at me. I have karma to spare today!

Take care,

Captain.

That’s certainly an interesting twist on what usually happens here. Normally, people spend 4 hours a day browsing these boards, then lose their jobs!

Looks cautiously over his shoulder

Captain Quigers, you seem like a nice chap! Shame you won’t be sticking around. Well done on the severance, anyway, and good luck getting a job when you need one.

Ok then - how DARE you make me drink 7 pints of Guinness last night. My head’s in bits! You bastard!

There it is, jjimm - you are me. I’ve suspected it for a while and now I have the concrete evidence…

Captain Quigers, please, get yourself out of the pub and to a library with public computers with internet access or into a pub with such computers! Among other things, when I was on the dole a year ago, this place kept me sane (well, relatively sane;)).

Come on – you could become part of the show! Just to prove it to you, it’s been too long since I’ve done this:

:Looks around, winks at Captain Quigers and
runs naked through thread:

(Yes, I’m female)

well, before we all start sucking each others dicks, Captain Quigers, YOU told that Monkey bouncer not to let us in to that poncey aldwych bar last night.

may you burn in hell. and good luck with a job.

You bastard. It was you who fixed Bush’s election, wasn’t it.

Burn in hell.

Or have a pint. It’s up to you. :wink:

Wow. A “burn in hell” simulpost.

you can burn in hell too for that simulpost Demostylus
:smiley:

Cap’n Q:
Why not invest some of your money in an internet connection and stay on? Not to get all practical on you, but if you were to get another job before June; the severance would be a windfall, rather than just enough to get by.
Cheers,
W.

Quigers I burning your dog!

Whoa! Siege just streaked by. Nice!

Bubba
Now get cher butt to a library and post now and then

Hey! I’m telling 'punha 'bout that, Seige,.

Can’t believe no one posted this already…

When come back bring pie!

Now now, Homebrew. Nobody likes a tattletale.

As for you Captain Quigers…damn. I was going to flame you, but I’m actually in a fairly decent mood right now. I’ll pit you later if I can think of anything.

Captain Quigers leaving? Makes the baby Jesus dry!

Ooops. That should have been “cry”, but what the heck? :smiley:

Okay, who’s going to bring up:

  1. Death rays?
  2. Og?
  3. Hi, Opal!

So you’ll never have an internet connection again?

You Klingon bastard, you killed my son.

Are you sure the notification of losing your job camebefore you were spending 4 hours a day on this site? Or is that what you’re telling yourself to sleep at night?

All this, and we’re free, too. :smiley:
