Crazy Fool's Newsround - wasting time and stuff

wasting time and stuff

Things that are really getting on my nose, up my goat and around my wick this week:

Wasting time – Not the same time wasting as any regulars to this slot would know I ranted on about six months or so ago, but… I just had a twitch then, a real life nervous reaction, almost Mackie-like from Porridge. Apologies to those who have never seen Porridge, but it was the twitch that counted and could have been by any famous personality not just the psychotic frustrations of a hyped up screw at one of Her Majesty’s pleasurables. Doesn’t matter if you know him or not, just think twitch.

But back to the time wasting - with your day set ahead of you, timed and tabled meticulously just the way you want it, there’s always some git ready to drop a few spanners on your chores list, ‘If you could just go to the post office for no apparent reason that would be great.’ – ‘If you don’t mind getting a birthday card from the shop that would be great’ ‘No, we don’t have birthday cards.’ ‘This is the butchers mate, you want the post office.’

I mean smoking a doob as a youngster was the gateway to doing sod all. You had your whole ideology mapped out on a psycadellic blank sheet then some hippy on the street would ask you to complete a survey on the most catastrophic consequences you could imagine possible if the world ran out of turtles – ‘you’d have no mad 89 year old Vietnamese man in his jimmy’s hacking them to death with a hatchet to make soup I wrote’… in about an hour

Then I noticed the world was speeding up as I got older, I think because folk want to do stuff before they die and suddenly everything has to be crammed in, that’s why they invented the aeroplane, which behind the wheel is the second most valued invention in the world. The iPhone came in eighth, which is a really weird word to spell, and spell-check made it to eighty-sixth’s spot, which is even freakier, to spell I mean. But you know what I like the invention of indicators in cars that automatically turn off when you’ve done going around the corner. That was great. I remember it as a kid in our Maxi 1800, but hey you haven’t got time for this – wasting time - Bastards!
