'Bending' the rules

    I'm usually a bit of a stickler for rules and regulations but everyso often I throw caution to the wind.

    Right now I am parked under a Customer Parking Only sign in a car park of a shop of which I am not a customer.

    My question is, how far will you stretch the rules?

    I get the guards to sign the form that the car has been off the road so as i don't have to pay the back tax on it.

    Toilets are for customers use only?

    Hardly! I make sure to block the disabled toilets with what can only be described as Gary Coleman.

    they broke that rule... to bend that rule it would have been a half a shít i reckon ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,357 ✭✭✭jprboy


    I invariably break the speed limit on every journey I take e.g.

    31-40 kph in 30k zone
    51-60 kph in 50k zone
    81-90 kph in 80k zone

    Still have many other drivers tailgating and then zooming past so this assuages my guilt somewhat.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    I used to always bend those Helix shatterproof rulers in school, and they'd always break!!

    I do that in my Uni's SU bar, I didn't have to buy toilet roll for months because I'd take a few napkins every day.

    I'd also take handfuls of the ketchup / mustard / mayonaisse / vinegar / tartare sauce sachets every time I was there. And the occasional plastic fork.

    And God spoke all these words, saying: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
    1. You shall have no other gods before me.
    2. You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
    3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
    4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
    5. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
    6. You shall not murder.
    7. You shall not commit adultery.
    8. You shall not steal.
    9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
    10. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
    1; Oops
    2; well in fairness even the church brakes this the whole time.
    3; jeasus are ya for real? I think i might have broke that once or twice
    4; hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
    5; In fairness i do 82% of the time
    6; I havent murdered anyone yet. There is one that i haven't broke ;)
    7; Ok. i havent broke this one yet either
    8; Who has never stole anything???
    9; I have told the odd porky in my younger days.
    10; But. but. but.... my neighbour has a fine looking ox :pac:


    So to answer the op. No i have never bent any rules :D

    I always burn stuff in the back yard, and always carry two sausages and wear a chef's hat in case the environmental bastard from the council drops in.

    Ha, bunch of cissies. I have, on several occasions, lied about wether I had coffee or tea when paying at the petrol station. "Tea:)" saves me 50 cent, but it's hard to live with the guilt. I'm trying to stop, but the buzz is unreal. Ok, Ok, I did it twice, but it felt soo good.

    I once broke the pay card on a photocopier in my college so that I could use it for free and then after photocopying a whole book, I walked away with another ream of paper - in my defense, I had no money whatsoever and needed a book for college and paper to write on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    I shat in a policeman's hat because I was pregnant and they have to provide their hats as a shite-pot because it's the law.

    True, that's the law

    Also if a garda is going to arrest you then knock off their cap

    They can't arrest you without a cap

    That's why gardaí never tackle Dublin's boardwalk, the junkies are wise to this and kept throwing the caps into the Liffey

    Bending the rules is why this country is where it is today.

    Shure its grand etc.

    Most people in this country would pay a little extra to get their kid into a certain "school"

    I blame the whole going to confession and forgiveness thing.

    Irish Morals suck balls really.

    w00t! is in my heart.

    The chancer is loved in Ireland.

    Then Anglo happened, and suddenly people claimed not to like chancers.

    And yet here we have a thread boasting about bending the rules... :pac:
