Hang on! What's wrong with being a [s]rep[/s] sales engineer?
I see - failed on the other tactic so now trying the "it's your wife's company" thing. So how come I'm the Chairman and Director then? You'd better get in a lather about that too.
Not that it matters - whether me, my wife or our pet dog set it up, it's doing well. And let's face it children, that hurts your wounded little sensitive souls.
bump thingy
I've read through most of this, ....though I never bother to read Surf-mat's posts anyway, as they are consistently ill informed, poorly thought out and reactionary guff or simply cut and pasted responses from somewhere else. Getting into an argument with him is about as intellectually challenging as farting and really not worth the effort.
That being said, the rest of it's quite funny.:)
deadly, that's shockin' ๐

In a piquey fit of guilt, I edited it. Too late it seems. ๐
Jah - For someone that looks like an even older version of Dudley Moore and is the worst moaning bleater on STW , that's a bit rich. Or would you rather argue about retirement home choices?
It's bit like a 40 year old trying to get in with the Uni kids at a club somewhere. Rather unsettling.
Don - has your 206 broken down again or something? Something has upset you.
You read a page.
You think, "This can't get any better"
Then.
It does.

She put you in those positions when you started to work for her business? She did have the business up and running before you got involved didn't she? I have no sense of envy whatsoever, I'm pointing out that success is often a result of connections/privilege and not always down to graft etc. Likewise, lack of success/wealth is not always due to laziness or lack of ability. We don't live in a meritocracy. But you seem oblivious to this...

Part of the pre nup?
Ten fing pages, and all because the soppy tart has a heavy cold.
It really is going to be fing hell the day she eventually pops her clogs.
What with all the perpetual multi-page threads on here, the Tory press endlessly churning out their well-rehearsed myths about her, the televised state funeral, the constant TV programmes, the New Labour sycophants queueing up to heap praise on her, it really is going to be utterly utterly unbearable.
Some of yous might think you'll be partying and having a great time, I think I'll be getting the f*** out of Britain......first plane/train.

Part of the pre nup?
And after today's ruling in court in that London, you'd better stay married Mat. ๐
Baring in mind that I'm too young to have been around to know who this "Thatcher" person is (I have heard she was prime minister for a while), why is her getting sick so important?
Ten f***ing pages, and all because the soppy tart has a heavy cold.
I reckon about five of them are down to Surf-Mat, but you do have a point.
Surf-Mat - MemberI see - failed on the other tactic so now trying the "it's your wife's company" thing. So how come I'm the Chairman and Director then? You'd better get in a lather about that too.
Whatever makes you happy. Why do people presume that having an opposing view means you're in a lather. ๐
I also think that maxray covered the failed point quite well, no need to repeat, eh?
Don - has your 206 broken down again or something? Something has upset you.
My wife's 206. ๐
AWESOME Mat, you appear to be stooping to insults now.....
Game Over.
So how come I'm the Chairman and Director then?
I like to think of myself as the [i]Oberfรผrher[/i] of my operation. Others call me different things though.
I almost feel sorry for Surf-Mat, he's taken such a pounding today.
Couple of tips, sunshine (told you to come to me if you needed any tips, din't I?):
*When faced with an overwhelming amount of forum opinion against you, you must ensure that your every statement can be backed up by fact, or prove the claims of others as wrong.
*When every avenue of argument has been exhausted, and you're not getting anywhere, then it's time to break out the pic posting. Random, completely unrelated images are good, as your opponents become confused and unclear as to how best respond or continue. This tactic has served me well on man occasions.
* Ensure that you truly, believe in everything you say. No point in coming out with stuff you don't really believe, as people will be able to pick your statements apart. If you're trily confident in your own views, you won't need to defend them to such a degree.
However, having never been in this position you're currently in, IE exposed as fundamentally clueless and full of nowt but narrow-minded individualistic rhetoric that none of us really beleive you mean, I'm afraid I can't really offer the advice you seem so desperately to need. Sorry. ๐
Praps there's more valour in admitting defeat. Continuing this painful display will not serve you well, and leave your forum reputation in tatters, if indeed it's not already.
I'm afraid your AWESOMEness has been smashed, like so many pub glasses...
Poor Surf-Mat. ๐ Notice how none of your fellow Tory Boys are here to defend you? They don't dare, the poor dears. Plus, sticking up for one another is evil and Communist, isn't it? Looks like you've bin left to fend for yourself, in the true Tory way.
Ok, leave it, everyone. He's had enough, poor bloke. It's no longer kind or humane.
Who is this Surf Matt?
So how come I'm the Chairman and Director then?
dont know have you asked the boss?
I am here all week
A bit off topic, but is Thatcher dead yet?
GG; don't try hijacking the thread with some completely unrelated topic please.
Oh, er, hang on a mo...
Right. I'm off out for dinner. I've nicked a bottle of red from the Co-Op, 'cos I'm a classy geezer. Have fun kiddies! Play nice now. ๐
i walked in from work tonight, the news was on radio 2.
i asked the wife if mrs thatcher had died, she replied 'no, but we can only hope'.
i then asked her if i was a bad person for wishing her dead.
she thought about it for a few seconds and replied ' you are going soft in you old age'.

Funniest thing you've ever said ๐
Nice tips Elfin, reminds me of many a great argument on here :D.
Surely by those rules, its time for a soon-to-be-privatised postman holding a baby otter?

Oh, and perhaps we should make the bare chested greco-roman grappling on the beach a special STW web feature to mark Mrs Thatcher's funeral.
Back on topic, did I eat too much cheese before bedtime and dream it, or are we (err, the UK) really really planning on spending public money on a state funeral for her? ๐ฏ
say what you like about the iron lady but she did great things for the financial industry with her "light touch" approach, wonderful things for 20 state controlled utilities such as BT, British Gas etc, brilliant things for council housing, inspirational things to community taxation, brought Britain back to the forefront of international manufacturing and showed us all that unemployment was just down to people being to lazy or too busy moaning to go out and get work...
...oh, hang on

Didn't she axe the Vulcan too? (runs for cover ๐ )
Nazi cockweasle. brilliant.
Surf mat, conscience required, and no its something you cannot buy.
As for MrsT death, i couldn't give a monkey's f*cknugget, but I hope, just hope the current shower are stupid enough to give her a state funeral. The riots will be awesome.

Or the "dance off"
wonderful things for 20 state controlled utilities such as BT, British Gas etc,
Hmmm.
Back in the day of the nationalised industries, they basically didn't give a damn about those poor saps who were paying the bills.
After all, why should they? They had a monopoly - so you had to go to them, and if they screwed up even that, the taxpayer would bail them out.
So if you wanted a phone line, you had to wait weeks before they'd even talk to you. Things are much better now that BT - and their ilk - have been privatised and so have to actually care about customers.
ton - I think I'm falling in love with you, you funny little man ๐

Not if you work for them it isn't

no Riot is awesome, it brings out the most base human behaviour and mob rule. It doesn't matter how right or just the cause if a riot occurs you've lost all moral high ground and become the worst scum.
how does the destruction of public and private property, physical assaults on members of the emergency services gain anything?
if you loose your temper, you've lost the argument
I haven't read all 10 pages of this post, but if it's already posted sorry in advance.
However [url= http://www.chumba.com/thatchep.php ]pre Order now[/url]
If they do have the gall to attempt a State Funeral, the ensuing violence and chaos will be a fitting tribute to her achievements:
Pain, suffering and the elevation individual gratification above the greater good of society.

I hate to disagree but I think riots ARE awesome... not perhaps awesome like surf-mat... or awesome doood.... but awe inspiring.. full of awe.. a sight to behold and take the breath away and instill awe and probably terror into the heart of the witness..
so yes.. a riot IS awesome.. in a similar (but obviously much smaller) way to an earthquake or a thunderstorm.. it's not very productive perhaps.. unless people are inspired into more actions rather than procrastinations by the awesome fury and terrifying chaos of the riot..
People may respond to a riot as a mighty power and a demonstration of mass mobilisation.. maybe some of the greatest acts of history have been inspired by the riot..
awesome.. definitely.. unpleasant and terrifying.. very much so..
not everyone's cup of tea.. without a doubt..
[polite request] Ton- can you organise an STW ride / powerskid over her grave when she does snuff it? I, for one, am in. [polite request]

Nowadays the privatised industries don't give a damn about those poor saps who are paying the bills...you know the rest.

We would have been saddled with the poll tax if it wasn't for that riot. It also marked the end of Thatcher. The moral high ground is only for those who can afford to be there.
You realise that when she does we will have to pay for a 24 hour, 365 days a year guard for her tomb?
For two reasons, one, to protect it from dancers and streams of wee, and two, to make sure she stays in it...

say what you like about the [s]iron[/s] evil lady but she did great things for the financial industry with her "light touch" approach,(which we are paying for now)wonderful things for 20 state controlled utilities such as BT, British Gas etc,(sold them all off piecemeal),
brilliant things for council housing,(sold them to closet conservative voters who thought they where home owners, then they found out the cost of repairs and maintance that they had done for free)
inspirational things to community taxation,
brought Britain back to the forefront of international manufacturing (after closing down the mines, the steel industry, the car industry and the railway workshops)
and showed us all that unemployment was just down to people being to lazy or too busy moaning to go out and get work...(then we discovered Singletrack forum while at work)

There sorted it for you.
hadn't realised that the majority of STW looked like this
That's on a good day.
