Pandering to the masses
Grandad August 6th, 2010
Did you ever have a switch–off day?
That’s one of those days where you have a nice lie in, and wake up really refreshed and so relaxed that you couldn’t be arsed to do anything?
Today was one of those days.
I had a few things to write about, but then I thought to myself – why bother? It’s my life, and my switch-off day, so I am going to just stare into space and think happy thoughts.
And then I get a complaint.
“You know it’s one of the clock in the afternoon here, so it has to be 6 pm where you are. We can’t all wait around on you all day and night you know. Get your fat lazy arse out of bed at the crack of noon if not at the crack of day and get posting. ”
Do you know what?
You can fuck off.
I don’t get paid for this. I can do what I fucking well like. If I don’t feel like writing, then I’m not going to write.
Today, I don’t feel like writing.
So go away and do something constructive. Go and read a book. Take a walk in the fresh air. Do the housework that you have been meaning to do for the last six months. Return that library book you borrowed three years ago [and never read].
Me?
I’m going back to my happy thoughts.

“Get your fat lazy arse out of bed”, what a horrible thing to say about you. From everyone I’ve talked to you are not fat.
Jim C – You’ve been talking about me? To whom? Mind you, they are right. Six foot two, and twelve stone of lean muscle, strong bone and beer belly. That’s me.
Sounds like ‘those’ plants in the greenhouse have been harvested!?
And what does your anthropologist think about this behaviour?
By the way, thanks for reminding me about that library book.
Mmmm.
“Six foot two, and twelve stone of lean muscle, strong bone and beer belly. That’s me.”
And the mirror you are using is from where?
Look at him there. Slacking away. The slacker. Jayze.
Mick – Maybe? Maybe not?
Bucko – A little tip. If you want to get out of paying the library fine, just tell ‘em you died months ago.
Filthy – Are you my long lost brother? Do I have a long lost brother? Nobody tells me anything.
Con – Who’s slacking?
For me the best lie-in is to go to bed early and get up at 7. I only discovered this in the last six months though.
