I thought there was a thread for this already, but couldn't find one in the search Anyway, in the post office the other day, a guy comes in wearing building stuff and starts having a conversation with somebody else he knows and at the end of the conversation he says, in all seriousness, "I'm just trying to make an honest buck without paying the taxman". He then collects his giro money And then last night, everybody round a mate's house and this girl was trying to chat one of the lads up and said "So, are you well into indie music then?". I left after that |

Linux is excellent for bussiness applications, it's just too complicated for the average home user, simplicity and user friendlyness are the keys to a good home OS. |

I have to say I have a macbook pro with snow leopard and a desktop with windows 7 and I much prefer windows 7. Oh, gonna install windows 7 on my mbp and see how it goes down. Recent mac convert (we had one briefly years ago too) and I have been loving os x so it'll be interesting. If you're cool with the intricacies of linux then it's great, it was so so good going from xp to ubuntu, wish I'd been able to get sabayon to install properly, that looked fantastic. Obviously it's still not at the level most home users need it to be yet. |

I was on the bus to uni this morning and the couple in front of me were talking, the bloke was wearing one of those yellow and green Man Utd scarfs. Girl: So if United won last night does that mean they're in the final at Wembley?

Was in Pret a few weeks back and this Italian guy (mid 50's) said something along the lines of this. "The family was all sat around the table and I came in the room, my wife and daughter were sitting next to each other and they look identical from behind! I couldn't tell them apart and even when I walked round the table they both look idential from the front!" Naturally my mind thought of this in a dirty way. |

Something overheard in Oxford. Overheard on Merton Street two students discussing what to do with their evening.One student says to the other 'Come along sir, let us sit down and laugh at the fleeting temperaments of the common man and his attire'. I thought it was kind of appropriate for FUK |
