Oh I'd kill for a cup of tea!

Dubrub · 12-01-2010 07:58PM #1

I cant understand that now with the snow and ice gone and the thaw more or less completed I am in my 4th day without water,,, It is getting to be a humanitarian issue here in my house were we can no longer flush toilets or wash ourselves and only in the last few hours the council has is providing access to a "water station" that is over a mile away,,, grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
Should I accept it or be really really p1ssed off with how this country is run???

I actually don't drink it either, or coffee for that matter. People always think I'm weird when I tell them after they offer me some when I go to their house.

On the flip side they also think I'm and ignorant bastard for not offering them any when they come to my house....it just never occurs to me that someone might want to drink it.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock · 12-01-2010 08:10PM

A little snow and no trasnport and no water? Yes, you should be pissed off. I suggest a riot, as the song says.

Pff you go, report back when you're done.

Why does everyone have an unhealthy obsession with tea?!?! And don't give me "because it's awesome"

*giggles* · 12-01-2010 08:13PM

That's because tea is awesome:) That gives me an idea.....*puts on kettle*

That only works if 1,000,000 members join.

I'm going for a bath (with a cup of tea) then i'm going to have a shower to wash off the bath water and probably have another cup of tea. then I'll probably wash the car.

biko · 12-01-2010 08:16PM

Don't forget to rinse thoroughly, it can be a streaky. Might as well wash it twice while you're at it:rolleyes:

Good for a hangover let me tell you!

Schism · 12-01-2010 08:26PM

Pfft, water. I'm more worried about my internet going down.

P.s. I have no water either.

Euro_Kraut · 12-01-2010 08:26PM

Killing someone is not going to make your tea come any faster OP. It will just help you pass the time.

Dempsey · 12-01-2010 08:36PM

This couldnt be funnier, the whole of Dublin decides that they'll leave the taps running to stop pipes freezing and then they moan when demand is outstripping supply. Do you think there is enough drinking water in reserve for you to waste for days on end without issues? They then proceed to blame the government because they all are inconsiderate towards the consequences of their own actions.

Why isn't there a 'thumbs-down' option for posts like this?

Spot on. You'd think people would have a bit of cop on to collect snow and/or rain water.

Praetorian Saighdiuir · 12-01-2010 08:59PM
