Ever wanted to see Romanians do the Haka?  Nope, me neither

I know I should stop this, I’ve been warned, but I just can’t resist, I’m sorry…

[Last one honest] 10 more things that I hate. Sort of

1) I could’ve gone to Oxford/Cambridge you know. Well done. I could’ve ridden backwards around the Sahara on a weasel. But I didn’t, which is why I don’t tell people about it.

2) Velour.

What an archivist is/was/does/what?…

1) Archivists are composed of approximately 90% chocolate biscuits and coffee breaks.

2) Archivists like to touch old things.  That includes Terry Wogan.

Yet a further 10 things I hate that other people seem to like. Because I’m an archivist. Archivists like lists. It’s the natural order of things, archivists list, teachers teach, Gary Glitter touches children, and the world continues to rotate on its axis.

1).  LMAO.  See also ROTFLMAO.  For the more refined individuals I just spat tea all over my monitor will suffice.  I have never done any of these things, my ass remains permanently attached, my floor unrolled ( Read more... )

This serves no particular purpose, aside from the venting of spleens and such.

Things people say that I really really REALLY hate...

'Fabulous. Well done. I'll just go and find someone else to talk to whose capable of forming coherent sentences then shall I?'

‘We have a deep spiritual ( Read more... )

I decided to start writing a livejournal dictionary

( What, me, bored? never... )

Right.  She's done it.  She's crossed the fucking line.  According to Janet*, i.e. archive assistant, i.e. middle aged woman with zero work experience, zero qualifications, a chip on her shoulder the size of my arse and a 19 year old spotty dim-witted overweight waste of space for a son, my jewellery is too clanky, and could I please remove it so ( Read more... )
