back to article Unbridled BONKING and rampant ROGERING at YOUR office!

Youtube Video Sex sex sex, that’s all we think about, apparently. I think I read somewhere that men think about sex every seven seconds. But then you shouldn’t believe everything you read because a person could hardly concentrate on (SEX) matters on a day-to-day basis if this was the case and you would turn into a (SEX) …

    nothing but pure fancy

    If I remember correctly it wasn't a code but a patch that you had to apply to show the goods.

    I won't be surprised if it is a code now, since you can't expect kids these days to be able to patch a file.

    On another note, what kind of an IT person are you really, if you cannot find the "Sickening and Obscene"? They even added private browsing so you don't have to delete your history once you found it. Come on, even IE has private tabs.

      It has to be done with "a click" of "a button", remember. No keyboard work or browser setup. Just go to Instagram and click on a button.

        Re: nothing but pure fancy

        Fair enough, it takes more than one click and some typing. Also I don't use Instagram but it is pretty easy on tumblr.

      @Milen (was: Re: nothing but pure fancy)

      What, pray tell, is the definition of "a code", v.s. "a patch" in this context? Please do compare & contrast.

      While you are at it, kindly define both "sickening" and "obscene".

      I'm on tenterhooks ...

        Re: @Milen (was: nothing but pure fancy)

        By "code", I meant tapping a sequence of buttons on your game controller or a sequence of keys on your keyboard to unlock an Easter Egg.

          Re: @Milen (was: nothing but pure fancy)

          What sort of egg was that again, Easter or Love?

      2. Milen

        Re: @Milen (was: nothing but pure fancy)

        Code is a sequence of keys pressed on the keyboard or other controller. By patch I mean modifying the executable and other parts of the program and maybe adding some custom HD textures while we are at it.

        Sickening and obscene should be defined by each viewer individually. Are you asking for what makes me sick? Sorry, but you'll have to wait till Monday for that answer, as I don't plan on spoiling my weekend.

          "Sickening and obscene should be defined by each viewer individually."

          I agree, I find Instagram itself sickening and obscene. To take modern camera technology and, using software, artificially make it as crap as 20-40 years ago is beyond my understanding*.

          It's like taking a modern car and adding an always-on brake to make it as uneconomical as a car 20 years ago... why?

          * I can understand the occasional artistic use of such effects, but artistic doesn't come into Instagram.

    Last weeks article was a bit meh, but this one......hang on I have a text.

    Oh, it's nothing. Jeez your nosey, OK it was from my mate Jaime, yeah her, not my wife. She never texts unless she wants milk. My wife that is, sometimes jqaime messages me about pasta, I think that's because I said once I like pasta. I also like breast and painted toenails, does this mean I should ask her next time she's over from America? Oh where was I ....Oh yes, I quite liked reading this on.

    Hang on, another text, oh it's a video on iMessage....Hmmm Seems she knows about breasts.

    40 per cent have turned down sex with their partner in favour of playing on their smartphone.

    That's not because they're 18-30 as you suggest. That's because their partner is a 18-30 male ;-) hence they probably turn down sex several times a day for various reasons, including "I'm on the phone with mum, stupid", "what are you doing I'm washing the dishes", "hush now, the other customers are watching", "you'll get us thrown out of the bus" or "I said no, airplane seats are too uncomfortable". And yes, probably "In a minute dear, I'm this close to breaking my personnal best in Angry Birds". Not that surprising really.

      or more likely.... Hmm, she's playing on her phone... I may as well have a quick game of crysis... Hmm, the kids are snoring loudly this evening. Oh wait, its 2am and that isn't the kids...

      Electronic screens are bad. They keep the kids up. TV is almost as bad as free-to-play games - it is not made by people who love content and use adverts to support their craft. It is made by advertisers trying to find some way to get people to watch their adverts.

      Electronic devices are a distraction which separates people from each other. TV stops conversation around the table; personal stereos isolate listeners from their friends, family and environment; phone/tablet activities shift focus from people to a device and absorb that attention like a black hole absorbs light.

      Boredom is the engine-room of creativity. It's good for children and adults.

    I thought all of the images on Instagram were "Sickening and Obscene", no button needed - Just a decent eye for photographic quality and a sensitive stomach. I find Instagram in general to be a perversion of photography.

    On a completely unrelated note, from NTKnow dated 16/07/1999 (ie fifteen years ago, when we were all younger and actually getting some sex):

    SNAPPY QUESTIONS FOR DUMB ANSWERS>> (being an occasional

    series encouraging readers to ruin press conferences by

    asking smart-arse questions): ALISTAIR DABBS wins this week,

    with his query at the Acrobat 4.0 launch earlier this year.

    When Adobe's CHUCK GESCHKE demonstrated how the whole of

    Apple UK's Website could be converted into a PDF, Alistair

    asked if Chuck could see the irony of choosing the Apple

    site for the demo, since this feature is only available in

    the Windows version. Chuck's instant comeback: Adobe will

    have added this function to Mac Acrobat 4.0 by launch

    date. Impressive comeback? "I learnt fifteen minutes later

    from a whispering Adobe product manager", reveals Alistair,

    "that this was total bollocks, invented off the cuff by

    Chuck in order to shut me up." Okay, folks: now it's up to

    you to remind Chuck of his promise at every public

    appearance. And remember: the demo is only over when you're

    forced to leave the building.

    I assume this is/was our beloved Dabbsy

        Re: Stereotypes

        The most important part of 'generalizations' is the 'general' part. Generalizations generally contain a general truism (or two), but obviously there are going to be some misses, otherwise it wouldn't be a generalization. It would be incontrovertible fact. It's when you get into incontrovertible generalizations that things generally take a turn for the worse.
