I can't remember who the original quote is atributed too but it is "The trouble with common sense is that it is very common"

Squint, it seems we sing from the same hymn book, but............ I have to say,.... common sense, seems to be one subject that we not allowed to take part in. After all, it might open us up to danger.

My theory behind all this health and safety and warning signs that tell you that hot chocolate may be hot, is that it will make humans less intelligent and affecting out evolution.

Before warning signs and health and safety if you were stupid you died. If you are dead you can't breed, you can't breed you can't have stupid children. Now any idiot literally idiots are coaxed through life and protected from harm they are then able to breed and have stupid children. Some of these stupid children might even breed with clever children and have stupid children. The really thick ones that can't get a job are given money so they can eat, now they wont even starve to death for being to stupid to either earn money or catch their own food! In a few generations we will be all dumbed out!

The end is nigh folks.

...... all be dumbed out and communicating via internet forums. ( Oh damn! ) :eek:

Here's a couple well on their way to proving Squints theory and will no doubt give more ammunition to the H&S 'do gooders'

What amazes me more is that you need a license to drive a car and even to own a television but any idiot can breed. Could they not start doing some kind or vasectomy at birth and then you need to pass a series of tests to prove your suitability as a potential parent before being granted a reversal on succesful completion of said assesment and means test.

Squint, while I agree with you previous posts, please be careful.... Not every couple have the luxury of choice.

Cheeses me off? Dogs and traffic.
... Noisy neighbours. When I was younger, I remember there being sort of an unwritten rule which said that you don't make excessive noise before 9am or after 9pm. My OH was brought up with the same rule. Does anyone else observe this kind of social etiquette, or is it merely an archaic eccentricity followed by a well-mannered minority?

I think you've identified the problem, we are the silent majority with the minority making all the noise as usual.

I never get the mower out before 9.30am and will always stop noisy DIY after 8.00pm

Sr8pe, Mrs Squint and I know this more than anyone we have suffered 7 miscarriges in our time together. It is made more difficult by the fact that when you go to the hospital you have to pass women heavily pregnant due any minute standing outside having a cigarette and already complaining about parenthood. We have been very lucky once and now have a gorgeous Baby Squint, see picture.
