Things that give you the sh1ts

No they are all carp.

CFLs as downlights are carp

CFLs as direct replacement for incandescent work well

LEDs are problematic but the right ones can replace halogens

See all carp and cause carp problems. I have some 200 watt lights coming my way

I figure that there's a reason I haven't seen anyone from high school since 2001; I don't like them, and they don't like me. I saw no point in pretending that I was buddies with some douchebags I couldn't stand 10 years prior to that.

^ this.

[Pseudo]

also got some rats running around in my back yard during the day, so will have to get some rat traps. this is annoying even more

I HATE rats and mice... to the point I vomit at the sight of them.

I only vomited at the sight of a Mouse after he pulled on that red-and-white guernsey...

[Pseudo]

I once didn't even go into my own kitchen for 2 years after seeing a mouse there... but gained weight anyway.

And nor should you. That's her domain.

One of the kids' guinea pigs dying. *

... after the emergency (read: expensive) veterinary appointment.

Telling the kids that their guinea pig has died.

Digging a hole in the backyard - dry as a bone, and of course I picked a spot where a bloody tree root ran through - to bury the dead guinea pig.


* - no, AHLers, this did not occur as a result of an accident with a roll of duct tape.

So you cleaned it up before you took it to the vet?

Fat Cat getting into a fight and now he's in hospital.

There goes another $1200 I don't have. Luckily he's insured but you still have to pay upfront first. This is on top of the $3k I've just paid for my sinus op and the $2k I'm giving to Heaters mob at the end of the week.

Baked beans and 2 min noodles for me for a while

This year is going to be a Murphys Law year. Anything that can go wrong will and already has - and it's only January 15

Good luck getting any money out of any pet insurance providers. Biggest scam ever.

Seems you are correct.

Received a letter yesterday telling me that they can't accept my assessment as it doens't meet the qualifying criteria for a claim under the cover provided for my policy.

Combing the PDS and lo-and belhold they've worded it so the accidental injury isn't covered unless its caused by a car accident or a couple of other things. However, I reckon I can get them on the wording, so Internal Dispute Resolution, here I come.

[Squids]

Dropping a good fish due to stupidity.

[cheetah]

At least you got a hand on it.

[dedja]

more talk of burnout bonuses for dud teachers ... FFS

Thats what she said.

You'd think I would've learned something having worked in Insurance for 8 years and having done some homework earlier this morning with the IDR girls here at RAAA, we think we've got them already.

Now to craft a finely worded letter to tell them their policy wording is riddled with loopholes and I've found the one that says my fat cat IS in fact covered, so pay me
