  • Hey, where did my pagerank go?

    My blog seems to have totally lost its pagerank. I am 100% sure that it was at least a PR2 on the homepage, and i have a shed load of posts that had awesome pageranks due to them being commented on a lot and linked to and they are all now PR0 too!!! What the hell has gone off??

    Im totally fucking pissed!

    Someone please tell me its a glitch in the matrix???

    Crap!

  • Its called eBay, and you are supposed to BID!!

    I am quite a well respected seller on eBay, i have brill feedback and im in the top 5000 reviewers – so you could say im a  seasoned eBay veteran.

    I know what to write when selling something, and i no what to ask when buying.

    So from time to time friends ask me to sell things for them on eBay, as im quite good at getting a good price for stuff. A mate of mine has recently asked me to sell his motorbike for him, and boy o boy have i had to deal with some muppets.

    First off, the description of the bike was well detailed, it told when the bike was serviced, what was done, and when it was done, whats been changed, bla bla  bla. There were about 20 detailed photos, and  more info you could shake a stick at. Auction started at 1500 quid, obviously no reserve set as it didn’t say the word reserve anywhere. Local pickup preferred, nearby local delivery possible at additional cost.

    The first question i get, is;

    “Hi mate what condition is the bike in, and is it a runner”

    What the fudge? Have you read the description? Have you looked at the 20 detailed photos?

    Second question;

    “how much would it be to deliver to Edinburgh”

    How the fuck do i know? Do you expect me to waste my time finding out? Are you buying the bike, or am i?

    At this point we had a bidder, so 1 bid @ 1500 – bangin.

    Next question;

    “how much is the reserve/buy it now price”

    There isn’t one. obviously. Or it would say reserve not met/reserve met and have a buy it now button on my auction.

    Another question;

    “hi do you still have the bike and where is Mansfield”

    Well, the fucking auction is still running – do motorbikes have a habit of blowing away in the wind?

    Same person;

    “ok what do you want to end the auction can i view it tomorrow morning”

    The auction had ONE day left, so i simply said if you want it please bid on it.

    Same person again

    “so can i come see it tomorrow then”

    Yes, if you win the auction.

    If you want to buy something, then visit a shop. eBay is an ONLINE AUCTION SITE!

    Sheesh.

  • RBS are a bunch of fucking losers

    Bank Charges. I honestly thought i had seen the back of them, i had not received a charge for ages and it felt great! We had a problem with a customer paying us which meant we didnt get paid when we thought we would do, and this meant a few bills of mine got missed and RBS stuck their fucking claws in as soon as they had the chance to..

    £495 charges in ONE MONTH!

    How in fuck’s name is anyone supposed to sort their finances out with banks taking nearly FIVE HUNDRED QUID off you in one month. I barely earn five-fucking -hundred quid a month, and they have taken it off me in charges.

    Apparently the bank charge refund shit has been put on hold until the bank bosses and courts have finished touching children, i did notice the fucking cnuts are still TAKING the charges, they have just put refunding them on hold – funny that isnt it?

    Why anyone needs a court and a bunch of pricks in suits to figure out £495 in ONE MONTH in charges is unlawful. Its fucking criminal and downright fucking scandalous, never mind unlawful!

    I spoke to someone in customer services and managed to get £228 back, im gonna ring my branch tomorrow to see if i can get any more refunded.

    For anyone wanting to ring RBS then their head office/customer relations/support/switchboard phone number is 01315 568 555.

    Im moving all my banking services to HSBC as we have our business banking there and they look after us a little bit better.

    I STRONGLY recommend EVERYONE to move their shit away from RBS – they are going down the panl and they are not taking my money with the,. Their desperate situation has resulted in them being unlawful and total bastards towards their customers.

    Easty shit and die you fucks.

  • Make them pass a urine test, before they can claim benefits!

    This was written by a rig worker in North Sea – he makes a lot of sense!

    I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay cheque, I work on a rig for a drilling contractor. I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem.

    What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don’t have to pass a urine test. Shouldn’t one have to pass a urine test to get benefits because I have to pass one to earn it for them?

    Please understand that I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do on the other hand have a problem with helping someone sit on their arse drinking beer and smoking dope.

    Could you imagine how much money the government would save if people had to pass a urine test to get benefits? 

    What a totally brilliant idea!
