I went to eat grape once and my mum made me spit it out. the thing is she actually put the grape back in the bag on the shelf. Sorry to whoever purchased said grapes.

The sad thing is, I can't think of one. Maybe something creative like an artist. But I would probably end up feeling unfulfilled, feeling like I wasn't really contributing anything useful to society. It would really depress me and I'd go on a killing spree and be known as the Paintbrush Butcher. And then pretentious art fans would think it was in the name of art and pay millions for my blood splattered canvases. That, or I'd like to be Indiana Jones.

Are you writing anything at the moment and how's it going?
Yes.
Quite well. Although as ever, the internet is distracting me. Bloody thing. If anyone has any ideas on how to keep off it, do share.

Bugger.

Cool. I've just thought of this, so don't know how well it would work. But you could write for half an hour, surf for half n hour and repeat that process. Hopefully you'll get consumed within your writing you'll forget the internets for a while. But if the opposite happens. Don't blame me.

What do other BCG posters think of this idea, my friends have noticed in Morrisons that all bread,cakes, buns are on bottom shelf.
They have seen kiddies in pushchairs sqeezing them, and taking bites, they don't buy bread there now, and have written to manager.
I often see kids in supermarkets touching bread that's down near their level. They stick it in their mouths, drop it on the floor. Their mums just pick it up and shove it back on the shelf.
Disgusting.
Revolting. As is eating grapes from the bunch on the shelf. They could be sneezed on or otherwise contaminated. If you must sample one to ascertain the taste/freshness, take one from the center underside of a back bunch.
I always dig for my food. Must piss the shelfstackers right off.

Me too. I ALWAYS take from the back.
Firstly, if the shelf stackers are doing their job properly, the newest stuff is at the back, and secondly (most importantly) the proles haven't touched them.
Even with bottles and jars and stuff I never take the one at the front.
OCD.
