Getting paid to stop smoking - controversy?
Raining_again replied to Raining_again's topic in General Chit Chat
they take a breath test assumedly before, and after (every week) to make sure you have actually stopped. I'm pretty sure if you can quit with the bribery you can quit without it (and I have been a smoker) -
Just saw this on the news! I'm not sure where I sit on this argument, can see the pros and cons.. On one hand I can see the health benefits, and the "projected" money savings for the nhs... but then on the other side; they would be saving money by stopping smoking, and it seems a bit of a disgrace that people can only stop on the thought of getting more money... seems a bit lazy! Thoughts?

the oxygen filter/water filter (that breaks up the water) and temperature/heater things for tropicals are fire risks. Electronics very near to water are also an electrocution risk too. For most people fish aren't just a wee bowl, water, and some fish =P

What would you do if you woke up as the opposite sex?

Yeah...funny thing that, I can't parallel park either... (well i don't really make an attempt/am too scared of hitting cars ) Hmm the real question is... What things do men enjoy (read: get away with) that women don't...? -
Just reading that has exhausted me... but go you mollster. Nice to see you doing some exciting n00 things. Good luck on the job hunt

I've had to go back to a wheat diet for a while, before my colonoscopy. (apparently the antibodies -or something- in colieac disease are only present when eating bad food, so you could be tested negative if you stayed on a wheat free diet) Its making me feel terrible. My poor tum. =( Everything seems to be rubbish these days. I often wonder why im so cursed, when i get really depressed i starting wishing terrible things that i shouldn't be.. (like not being born yada yada) my mum took me home when I was born and I stopped breathing on a few occasions so really im rather blessed to be alive.. even if I don't feel like it right now. positivethoughtspositivethoughts

You know you don't quite have the same aim, if you turn to a female... :P -
I'd say its pretty unlikely the way the "credit crunch" is. People just aren't getting loans like they used to... So you'll just have to do what everyone else does; save like mad til you can afford it.

You lot are saying that like its a new thing they been doing

Aww poor martin *sends loves and good luck your way* Today I smashed my head off my car boot door.. I think i'm a bit concussed haha. I don't remember most of my day I didn't even think it was that bad at the time either o_O

Completely agree with bolded. To justify throwing a bucket of money at this product, Apple really need to have customised a better OS. Everyone's comparing it to a netbook/laptop yet its still in a comparatively backwards OS.. I can say for sure that I won't be buying one.. Not to say its bad or anything, it just doesn't interest me the way it is... (and not forgetting the awkward way you have to use it)
-
well your secrets out now!!! Glad you enjoyed eet. =D

It's an outrage that our nando's birthday isn't displaying on the "today's birthday" bit (why is that?) Happy birthday to you both anyway!

i downloaded the HD version through the iplayer software thingymabob and watched it through there So...that was a decent episode. I prefer the sciencey episodes as opposed to the ones filled with aliens/monsters. The tardis looked awesome covered in snow! ^_^

You have to have a goooood 300kbps internet connection to support it. I'm sitting on about 220kbps (give or take) because of the infrastructure i'll almost never get any faster... Last weeks was SD too so i don't see why they needed to change Hopefully when they update with downloadable version the SD will be there to watch. fingers crossed. I'm still very tempted to do something the DEB wouldn't agree with :P
-
Fucks saaaaaaake, why did iPlayer change dr who to HD?! Apparently my internet is not fast enough to watch it and no SD version available.... Disappointment. (this doesn't help stop piracy! *cough*)
-
yes, hopefully it means i'm still looking youthful in my 30s :P She put the stuff I was buying through the till, took my money, THEN asked me for ID as she gave me my change.. >____>
-
I just got asked for ID at my local offy, and i'm not far off 24.. sad times.
