Biggest Waste of Time Ever
April 10th, 2007
Although I’m employed in the web industry I’ve always said the Internet is the biggest waste of time ever… social book-marking, blogging, youtube, myspace, blah blah blah.
And, despite being a self-confessed nerd and my girlfriend being the good Dr BBFK PhD, you come across stuff like this in the world…
Scientists perfect Bacon Butty
Which starts with these opening paragraphs…
“Scientists have created a mathematical formula of how to make the perfect bacon butty.Experts at Leeds University discovered the secret to the ideal sandwich lay in how crispy and crunchy rashers were.”
Scientists? Experts? What a waste of braincells…
“Four researchers at the Department of Food Science spent more than 1,000 hours testing 700 variations on the traditional bacon sandwich.”
Cure for Cancer? Eradicate Aids? Fight Malaria? No, they dream up a formula for the “perfect” bacon sandwich. What use is that in the world?
Get a life you tossers!
Well said Lever! They had to be from Leeds aswell didn’t they? And I never thought of the net as the biggest time wasting device ever but now I think of it …
Whaddya mean I could’ve made something of myself if I wasn’t checking my email every twelve seconds. The internet is NOT a waste of time! Hmph. This is an outrage. Not as outrageous as the sandwich research. But I’m a pain in the arse vegetarian, so probably my opinion doesn’t count.
Piniyini: I was gonna say something about these scientist types being from up norf, but remembered all my family are there…
T’Internet is the biggest waste of time ever and it pays my mortgage… what would we do without it? LOL
Jemima: L’Internet is a waste of time and a most enjoyable waste of time too. I met my girfriend on the Internet, a bunch of crazy and excellent friends, but otherwise it is a surefire way to waste your concentration… follow links… oooh, that’s interesting, post your opinion, blog etc etc etc
And I am the biggest hypocite ever for even bothering to post about it LOL
Now, get back to your fake bacon and get on with some work.
well who needs an AIDS cure when we’ve got bacon sandwiches? trying to focus on the TRULY important things, i reckon. that’s a funny picture though … big piggie … heh.
Rebekah: Right, tell that to the kids in the Congo
Nope, as much as I love a good bacon sandwich, I’ll not have the boffins wasting time on meaningless drivel like that… not unless someone funds me tons of corporate money to formulate the perfect cup of tea, which I know how to do anyhow, and redistribute the proceeds back into medical research, animal charities, environmental concerns and paying off my mortgage
Yeah, I dunno what I was thinking when I grafted that pig’s head onto the poster… probably just as big a waste of time as what I was slagging off… LOL
Another veggie on the side of the cute little piggies here.
Take a peek at NiceCupOfTeaAndaSitDown if you’re interested in the perfect cup of tea (and biscuits).
Now about the net being a waste of time…
I should really be asleep now.
Bulbboy: Ah dude, we’re big fans of NCOTAASD, and there’s even a geeky story connected to it, but we’ll save that fpr another day
But biscuit of the week this week is… the Japanese Digestive! LOL
Right, get to bed and stop playing on that Internet thingy.
