Jonathan Ross has caught stealing a kitchen utensil from Homebase. When questioned, he said that he thought it was a whisk worth taking. 

May the bridges I burn light your way

I was wondering how they managed to upload all their videos to YouTube.

Re: Joke thread
I have had versions of that. Really, I have.
Plus the guy who when I said "take a seat" sat in what was very clearly mine.
The one who told us that he left his previous job because, and I quote, "the boss was a right nice person. He reported me when I punched him."
Another who challenged my right to judge his application as I " ... hadn't lived his life".
They are all out there, believe me.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Re: Joke thread
those - what are your weaknesses questions are so wanky - as are the answers that are designed to promote something that might be seen as a strength - such as - I'm a perfectionist, I work too hard etc...
what the feck are you supposed to say?? "I have a tendency to grope female employees at the photocopier"??

Re: Joke thread
anyone who answers like that is a proper bullshitter though, surely? Half of me thinks that what the question is there for, to see if someone's speaks out their arse too much.
Re: Joke thread
Point taken, buuuut, I read a 'what not to say' article once that told of someone who answered the question 'what are your three biggest weaknesses?' said he was 'lazy, intolerant and dishonest'. I don't think that's what they meant!
