In a bad mood so it’s time for a rant.
Bottled Water.
Why? Why buy bottled water? I resent having to shell out my money for stuff that falls from the sky. I’m not stupid, I’ve seen water falling down all the time, I don’t care if it has filtered through igneous bloody rocks in La Trine, Belgium or some poxy place. It’s still water. And I refuse to pay for a natural resource that sustains life.
Here’s an idea I’m patenting: Air.
It’s natural, good for you and only £1.99 for a 500ml bottle. Send me cheques and I’ll send you bottles of air.
The Gym.
Why is it the only people I ever see going to a gym don’t need to go there? Fat people don’t go to the gym, they stay at home or do step classes in local community halls because they feel embarrassed. Well to hell with that, why should only the rich posing yuppie gimps go to gyms, whilst those that need to hide away? Go mob handed, take over those little rowing machines and stair-masters.
That really, really winds me up. Why use a rowing machine? Why not go row a real boat? That way you get outside in the fresh air and can have a picnic as well. Stairmasters? Do me a favour, don’t pay £200 per quarter to use one of those in a gym, instead go to any inner-city tower block and run up to the 15th floor whilst delivering food to the people that cant afford to use those machines.
It’s not keeping fit, it’s keeping up with The Jones’,
Garages.
Now, I seem to be in a minority of people that go to a garage because I need petrol for my car in order to keep it running.
Most other people seem to go there to get their lottery tickets ( you are NOT going to win, it’s a plot to keep you inside on a Saturday night watching television,do you anyone that has ever won more than £1000? Exactly), stock up on barbeque fuel and other crap.
The only garage near me is now a Summerfield “One-Stop” thing.
Which means not only is the forecourt choked with cars not using the pumps, but I have to wait for 10 minutes to pay for petrol whilst some cow person buys 17 items in the “Fuel and 5 Items or Less” line.
It also means that gangs of stupid kids hang around outside asking me to buy fags for them, and get moody when I reverse over their heads as I leave.
There will be more to come when my head stops hurting.

Pure oxygen gets you high dont it?
Nothing wrong with Bottled water. I drink a bottle of Evian every day, taste much better than the the chemical filled crap that comes through the tap.

Evian backwards is....
I love irony.

Ortega is right, water tastes different all over the country.
Anyway, if he wants to buy bottled water it's up to him. What's the problem?

Yes, but the plastic used for bottling your fancy water adds to pollution problems.
