It's rare I start a thread all about me, in fact I doubt I ever have, so whilst I'm in this joyous mood...
I GOT A JOB!!!!! HURRAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! A PROPER JOB!!!!!!
So I'm happy and I'm a city slicker finally. Well, on the ladder to being one!
We shall be drinking champagne tonight! (from my graduation, we never got around to drinking it)
Thanks guys and girls, I could never have done it without you. Especially you Homers, and your shiny head, it's an inspiration to us all!
And it's hard to be a human being, and it's harder as anything else, and I'm lonesome when you're around, and I'm never lonesome when I'm by myself, and I miss you when you're around. |

thanks everyone!
and i *wish* i was a ninja turtle!
no it's a job for a major world-wide banking organisation, nothing major at the moment, just administration type stuff i think, but it's a regular wage and it's a permanent job, both a first for me, so i'm very happy.

Let me tell you something friend, you do not want to be a ninja turtle. A couple of months ago my friends and I saw a sign that said, "Sunday brunch with a Ninja Turtle." So we went. Out comes this sluggish kid shuffling toward our table. I swear, when he saw how old we were, he just slumped. For some reason my friend asked him to eat with us and he just sort of edged away saying, "uh . . . cowabunga." It should have been fun, but it was just really sad and awkward.

Oh, I just googled it. Why was the name changed in the UK?

'ninja' was decided to be too violent IIRC, didn't want millions of kids running about pretending to be ninjas... so it changed to heroes. we always had the films in proper ninja form, it was just the cartoon series that used 'hero'. confusing stuff, but we all knew they were called ninjas really.

Good show! Here's to the start of a successful and happy career of the newly upwardly mobile bumblebeeboy, a new life of kickin' ass and takin' names later.
Hey, bumble, what's that you're hiding behind your back, lookin' all innocent?
Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Ok man, take the job! Please, take it! |

Congratulations!
I wish I could find a job. Not as a Ninja Turtle, though. Too many risks, and not enough hazard pay.

Congratumalations, you big chump. What sort of job is it? Does this mean you can become all civilized and not need to drown everything in beer?
No, thought not.
So, I finally got my X-Wing |

congrats simon! about bloody time.
funny occurence of incidences - you get a job, and i have just lost mine! haha.
I always pictured you as a ninja turtle, I think it would really suit you!! Your working at barclays? any way you can hack in to the system and clear my debts!?!?!?
p.s - I can name many threads that you have made specifically about you.
Nothing to see, nothing to hear, Nothing to be, nothing to fear, Nothing to prove, nothing to say, Nothing to lose, nothing to gain, Nothing to feel nothing to hate Nothing is real, It's all too late What do you do when nothing's wrong? Aint got a clue, Aint got no song |

I wish I was a ninja turtle and not a banker.
I think that this "hero turtle" stuff is all about political manipulation. They want kids to be good soldiers later and get slaughtered in the name of the Queen.
I will show you fear in a handful of dust |
