Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... ME.

I KNOW WHY THERE ISN'T ANY WHITE DOG POO THESE DAYS.

There was an additive in dog food that turned poo white that isn't put in dog food any more because it's dangerous or something.


Yep. Ground up bone for the extra calcium. Had the unfortunate side effect that this was what caused BSE in cattle, but I'm not sure if the two are linked.


There has never been a proven prion disease in canines, however BSE made the jump to cats in the form of feline spongiform encephalopathy and humans in the form of vCJD (variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease) so a jump to dogs would have been entirely possible, according to knowledge at the time. However, since then dogs have become one of the few animals known to be immune to prion diseases (its still unknown why), so if that was the case then they may as well put it back in :lol:

How young everyone in the pastry section at the Grosvenor is despite all being excellent chefs. Today it was just me and 3 guys (1 is the CDP (my line manager) and the other 2 were demis (the same as me)).

I spent all day working with them assuming they're mid 20s. Almost choked when I heard them discuss their birthdays - they were all born in 1997!!

A woman, who has given birth to five children, has had her marriage annulled because the registrar fucked up one of the copies of her birth certificate

How the fuck can they not sort this out? Surely they should be able to just do a DNA test to check she's got an XX and not an XY and correct the certificate?
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!
Can't a man start over?! Do I have to keep on PAYING?! HUH?!
Maybe I should make another mistake! ...maybe TWO more!

and the General Registry Office, although accepting the blunder, insist they cannot help."


Fucking wat.

HOW?

You change the sex on one record, judging by how this hasn't come up before she's female on everything else.

Want proof? Get a fucking DNA test or some shit.

It should not be this fucking hard.

A god damn letter the prime minister to change that shit.
