^i imagine people brainstorming for new products all the possible things they can combine with Marmite:
"Marmite cake"
"Marmite and courgette"
"Marmite pasta"
"Marmite jam"
"Marmite toothpaste"
"Marmite and banana spread"
"Marmite coffee"
"Marmite sunscreen"
"Marmite-flavoured purple sprouting broccoli"

We discussed this when it came out and as a result I tried marmite and peanut butter on some toast and it was great.

^ Marmite coffee sounds good. Make it happen.

That asbestos fibers were once used as fake snow in the movie industry, probably the most famous being The Wizard of Oz.

The main thing I've learnt about myself living alone in a flat with laminate floors for a few weeks is that my pubes get everywhere. Everywhere.

Whenever I sweep the floors, there's at least half a teaspoon's worth of them in the assorted detritus. It makes no sense - they're regularly tended, so there really shouldn't be that many available for disembarkation. Also, I don't walk around naked rubbing myself up against the furnishings that much.

I quite like that your choosing teaspoons as a measurement of pubes.

He seems a little hysterical. No different than any other gammon come to think of it.

I agree. I'd be tempted to try it though just because I like both marmite and peanut butter.

That there is actually a website called Rentafriend, where you can hire a friend to go for a pint with or go to a gig etc.

Whilst I can see the benefits of such an organisation I can't help but feel it's a shame that people are lonely enough to pay for company.
I will admit that I would consider it myself if I had some spare money.

Not really.

I'm not that interested in Star Wars, I just thought it was a clever Easter egg.

Actually, that is quite pitiable.

^ I work with a group of blokes in a factory with the average age of about 50. (I work in the office, but am involved with telling them what to do, I suppose that makes me management - joy)

They are ridiculously childish, they can't think for themselves, they can't take the initiative on anything, they can't make decisions incase its wrong and they don't want to be blamed. If something goes wrong (which it does because they are idiots) they all blame each other, they gloat and feel quite chuffed with themselves when something big does go wrong and it wasn't them. They are needy as hell, its literally managing a cresh, its exhausting on top of my own job.

You know whos the least drama? the 17 year old apprentice. He rocks up hungover and feeling a bit delicate at times but apart from that hes an absolute joy to deal with because you know you can tell him something once and he will just get on with it without any excuses and is actually capable of using his brain.

Common theme I guess!

I've found younger people to be more disobedient as they are used to behaving how they please at school and older people to be slow/lazy, I guess the less lazy people became management or moved on to better things.

That despite Shakespeare having been taught to everyone in British schools for however long, people seemingly don't remember the titles of any of his plays.

In response to the question 'What Shakespeare plays have an O or K in the title?' only 50(!) of the Pointless audience said Othello and 39 Romeo and Juliet.

Wtf? Makes me feel slightly better about my shoddy Shakespeare knowledge.
