Today on EPW
 
2 words - f***ing unelievable :eek:

I don't know why I even read it when it winds me up so much but its like watching Jeremy Kyle, Honey Boo Boo or other such car crash TV drivel; you are compelled to endure it to torture yourself

This lunctimes gems are wondering how on earth to choose a designer handbag for ONLY dhs 3000 and someone worrying themselves sick as their dishwasher is broken and they have dinner guests in a few days.

Theres a good chance these are people who had much lower paid jobs in the UK without dishwashers, maids or designer bags

You think the people posting on there have jobs? Far too much time on their hands. :zzz:

Edit> And if you think EW is annoying, avoid a blog called secret vent. A load of whingers posting about how awful their life is as their manicure smudged just after they left the salon and Spinney's has run out of Columbian beetroot and the like.

No idea what EPW stands for, so didn't bother reading more.

Where can I buy Columbian beetroot? Is it redder than normal beetroot? Does it stain your fingers as much? Will my wee be pleasantly pink? I feel you know these things, Meow.

Yes because it really annoys me when people assume we know what such letters stand for. The issue has been raised by others on here so why don't people learn.:banghead:

I hate EPW. I posted recently about a child I saw sniffing lighter fuel, except I didn't say what he was doing, I just said "Is this your child? I am concerned about him" and gave a description of the boy, hoping that his parents would recognise him and call me, whereupon I would tell them what I had seen.

However, the whole gang of EP bitches turned on me, as they wanted to know what the boy was doing. Eventually I gave in to their morbid curiosity (masked as concern) and told them, which pissed them off even more. "So he was only sniffing lighter fuel!", "How boring!", "You wasted our time for that!"

Not nice :(

You have about as much imagination as a caravan site.
