    Was that for one or both Kidneys?.

    I'm new here, I thought it was "after hours" in the cranky, obnoxious, shouting at passers-by drunk sense.

    Well welcome, Im an old timer but have been away for a while due to the content becoming repetitive and depressing. There are political forums for more serious discussions but Im finding that the even jokey/happy threads are being destroyed by PC heads.

    We're all going to be dead fairly soon so there's no point taking things too seriously.

    Rented mule's buying, it'd be rude to refuse!

    How is Coppers these days? havent been there since 2002, but I did score on the night, and if I went back she might still be there, or she might be the hooker that Rented mule sponsored... destiny is a funny old thing:D

    Hey,

    Anyone else bored to their back teeth with threads on how our country is in the sh*ts and is going to get even worse in the sh*ts.
    Does anyone else feel like just closing their eyes and plugging their ears and singing la la la la la la la la la to block it all out.
    I have personally stopped reading anything about our economy because...im broke & I dont want to hear about how Im going to be even more broke & Im fairly sick of being broke.
    Our government couldnt organise a p*ss up in a brewery.

    End Rant.

    Anyone have any good news? Lets hear some good news...like Jedward have lost their voices never to return again and have been attacked by rebel barbers while they slept

    That you Mr Cowen? get back to your office and do some work please:(

    Oh so not wanting to listen to all stuff negative makes me childish!!! I do take things seriously hense working my arse off to pay what debts I built up when things appeared to be going well. My whole point of making this thread as I have stated on more than one occasion is to see things that are POSITIVE in peoples lives as there is enough doom & gloom in the media. AH used to be a place that you could have a bit of a giggle but the amount of threads that are negative is sickening. So many people are depressed at how bad things are. Is it WRONG to want to be happy?Is it wrong to try look at the brights side of life...NO. For your INFO earlier this year I tried to commit suicide over my debts, everything was black. Its taken me a hell of a lot of work for me to start seeing that the glass isnt always half empty. So dont come on here giving the whole ''if people werent so childish'' talk. Just cause the fat cats have made a b*lls of this country doesnt mean that we all have to go around with a negative outlook.

    I'm very sorry that things got so bleak for you and glad that you are feeling better now. However your situation just backs up what I'm saying. Looking at the brightside of life is great but not if it's at the expense of good sense. If you had paid just a little more attention to the real state of the country when we were this supposedly extremely wealthy country - we weren't, people were just loaded up on debt - then you would never have gotten into such a rotten position in the first place.

    The "fat cats" would never have been able to make a balls of the country if people hadn't been too busy pretending things were awesome. And I have news for you, they are still doing all they can to line their pockets while they have the chance and making things worse than they need to be, even today. Going lalalalalala just allows them to keep doing that. This recession has barely begun, most people haven't even begun to feel the financial suffering which is to come.
