because ever since megatron and starscream double teamed him Optimus primes street cred dropped considerably
leaving you somewhat disillusioned with his truckish GI joe personality.

Why is Wolverine origins such an awesome movie when it starts and somewhat meh at the end?

[Mentalist]

Cuz it's all action in the beginning, but then they bring in feelings and ruin it.

Why am I hesitant about the fact that i'll be going out probably every night this weekend?

[frookenhauer]

Why does the prospect of getting my (temp) minions to label 40,000 christmas cards fill me with foreboding?

[Mentalist]

Why is it already supposed to snow here tonight?

[KingTeholBeddict]

Why did all the snow go away?

[Mentalist]

Global warming

Because if you look closely, your palms now have hair growing from them.

Why can I come up with things to do on the weekend fairly easily (eg go see Red at the cinema, evening jog along the shoreline), but have zero motivation to actually move my lazy arse to go and do aforementioned activities?

because your instincts tell you red is meh, and your legs refuse to budge when the prospect of jogging along any frikkin shoreline rears its ugly head.

why is life not at all like a box of chocolates?

because sometimes life can't always live up to chocolates high
standards.

Why is it never 20 people in the chatroom...?

[Morgoth]

because it's limited to 5?

Why did I like Cryptonomicon? (it beats me)

[Tsundoku]

interruption:

Chat room can now hold more than 5.

/interruption. Have a nice day, citizen.

[frookenhauer]

You like it because you are a closet sado masochist and use the cryptonomicron like a flail

Why does the prospect of a lie in tomorrow tempt me more than sex?

@Frook

Because laziness trumps every emotion, including lust.

Why does it never feel like its enough?

[Slow Ben]

Because your too hard on yourself. Or trying to fill the emptiness inside youwith food. Take your pick.

Oh matron! Flirty bedside manner will get nurses the sack

* By Caroline Marcus
* From: The Sunday Telegraph
* October 31, 2010 12:00AM

* New ethics rules ban flirting with patients
* Swearing, risque jokes also forbidden
* Breaking the rules can end in dismissal

NURSES have been banned from flirting with patients under a new set of professional-ethics guidelines introduced to hospitals.

Also forbidden under the code are sexual innuendo, "off-colour" jokes and using offensive language.

The guidelines, which carry disciplinary measures, were drawn up by the newly created Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency and have been issued to all nursing staff.

Nurses have been warned that discussing personal problems, feelings of sexual attraction or aspects of their personal life with patients could be interpreted as sexual violations.

The rules state sexual misconduct is an "extremely serious violation of the nurse's professional responsibility to the person in their care", and could result in dismissal.

Even if a patient consents or initiates sexual conduct, it is the nurse's responsibility to maintain a professional boundary.

Failing to recognise the development of an attraction of a sexual nature is considered sexual misconduct or assault.

The guidelines came into effect on July 1, when all states joined the scheme except WA, which joined on October 18.

According to the most recent figures published by the NSW Nurses and Midwives Board, there were 17 complaints made about nurses with "professional boundary issues" in the year to June, 2009 - almost triple the number in the previous year, when there were only six.

A total of 47 complaints relating to the issue have been made in the past five years.

Agency spokeswoman Nicole Newton said complaints about professional-boundaries issues were typically among the top 10 complaints reported about nurses.

The guidelines also stipulate that nurses must not accept bus fares, meal tickets, money or goods from patients.

NSW Nurses' Association general secretary Brett Holmes said it was the first time there had been specific guidelines on flirting. He was concerned nurses could be punished for being friendly to patients.

"It's a fairly high bar as flirting becomes crossing a professional boundary. Is [flirting] being fairly jocular or having a light-hearted conversation in what can be a very difficult situation, when it's therapeutic to lighten the load?" he said.

Mr Holmes said the medical tribunal should take "a balanced view rather than trying to make a black-letter law on what is or isn't flirting".

Why does the sound of rain on a metal roof make me so sleepy?

[Tapper]

You can still pay the taxi fare for a cab to your home/her place/ a hotelroom (which you're also allowed to pay for) for the nurse... I smell a loophole in these rules.

Why do only 8-12 year olds do something for Halloween here, without dressing up, even, and not the legal age bracket of hawt ladies?
