I often think about this...

 

what the hell is the point in automatic soap dispensers?

 

I realise it's to stop cross-contamination but surely, you would just press down the contaminated plunger dispensing germ killing soap onto your hands and then wash them getting rid of any germs from the dispenser anyway.

 

Also who is sue purb?

and who is Bill Payer?

My random thought of the  day is what will be on the random thought of the day thread.

 

Continuing the Toilet talk, the other day I went to  a small pub and went to the toilet, went to the sink, put soap on my hand, turned on the tapped.... nothing happens, tries again several times. End up walking out with my pocket full of soap.

Why is it that, on just about every TV drama or soap, all cars always make the same loud "chirp chirp" when they're being locked/alarmed when, in real life, hardly any cars make that noise?

That and the fact everyone in them has different mobile phones but usually the same ringtone

... and, when someone in a programme gives someone else a cup of tea or coffee, the other person always takes it with both hands and then holds it like that. Like they've been given a stone cold cuppa instead of something burning hot.

and when a row breaks out in the pub, the music goes off.

 

Who turns the music off? and why?

One i watched once, the bloke was working in a garage, he said to the other bloke in there, can you pass me a spanner. Without even asking what spanner he just picked up a random spanner out of a tool box and passed it to him and he carried on working.

 

I remember watching eastenders once and the part he was changing in the garage didn't even exist! and it was a really made up name as well. Can't remember what though. Was a long time ago!

I like Phil Mitchell's garage. They can completely re-build smashed up cars with no spray booth or any visible tools or welding equipment. Fantastic.

And he must make a fortune in there too. He is always closed or has very little work there. His staff don't get anything done because they are always popping out or standing around chatting. Yet.... he is Minted.

How?

 

I bet his public liability insurance is high too what with all of the 'accidents' there have been with that inspection pit.

 

Who has an inspection pit these days anyway? You would have though that with his bottomless bank account he could afford a couple of grand on a car lift?

His car lift must be holding his Range Rover and Jag up out of sight somewhere because you never see them cluttering up the square. They only appear randomly when Phil needs to be a bit of a geezer and chase someone around.

I think a question a lot of us are asking is why are you watching soaps? They are utter rubbish (like most TV) so why waste your life with them. There are minis out there that need work doing to them.

 

In answer to your question. My dad and I still have a car pit although we aren't a garage.

 

Why are soap operas called soap operas? Why not shampoo operas?
