So quick question,

Seeing as Australia and Newzealand hit
1st of June the day before the rest of
The usual suspects, can we start on 1st
Our time or wait another day?

I Will consult with my consultants on the consulting of a consultation to configure a creative conclusion for this complex conundrum
Is that clear?
You may start a day early but then finish a day earlier in August as well
Quid pro quo my down under friends

Come on chaps, be sensible. we all know that the UK is the centre of the world universe, so as far as I can see, the only sensible solution is to begin the SIG at good old Greenwich Mean Time 00:00 on 01/06/2019.

Our Australian friends (I think they are called Drongos colloquially

) will just have to abide by the rules and not make up their own, guessing most of them will be too drunk to care anyway, so maybe we are over thinking this

Edit: I do apologise, I appear to have completely forgotten about our friends in NZ, I think they are used to being totally overshadowed by AUS now anyway aren't they? Pretty much the same place right?

Although coming from Wales myself, I do seem to have a strange affinity for the NZ'ers, but I can't quite put my finger in on it

Ok
The higher ups have spoken and the word is .....it is GMT for start and finish times
You have to let the Brits think they are the center or they start falling apart and brexiting..oh wait

Sorry down understand, but you will have to hold your kangaroos

All in all it isn’t that big of a deal
I will be dead asleep when it starts

Please don't make me do math, everyone knows it's not our strong suit here in the states, apparently we can't even spell our words right most of the time, and if i have to figure out what time it is in the center of the universe(is that what the U in UK stands for?), then try and convert their metric time to our standard time, by the time i figure it out the sig will be over.

Just start building on your first of June and finish by your midnight of the 31st I will be happy with that
Same for you gits down under if you start earlier, then you finish earlier
The last thing I want to be accused of is causing someone to do math

Not even off the ground yet and there are complexities
It is like herding....I never have my ducks in this nice of a row

Post by **Johno** » Wed May 29, 2019 11:37 pm

Well now I'm bummed out, after realizing the thing in my hand does math for me(as a eluded to before we are not the brightest tools in the shed over here), i now realize i could have started a whole 5 hours erlier, although not sure how that works after metric conversion...wait, does that mean the brits are living in the future? I wonder if they have flying cars yet? I wonder if they can tell me what the lottery number are, ok maybe ill just quit while i'm ahead, or is it behind, i guess we're all dealing with complexities.

when in doubt post more memes

You guys had a real hissy fit with the Britts and went all out and changed everything. Own set of weights and measures that doesn't conform to anywhere else in the world and you had a go at changing the spelling of words.

Although that was 50yrs ago and not much has happened since, including here. The Chinese or Indians will be on Mars before any of us.

Except Myanmar and Liberia haven’t been to the moon.

I’m all for celebrating our achievements, but sticking with a stupid measurement system isn’t on the list.

Yeah, credit where it’s due, that WAS a pretty convincing hoax

How hard is it going to be to convert the USA to the metric system ? 327 million people oops sorry Matthrew 326.999999 million. Not a easy task I would be thinking.

HATE getting my eyes dilated, rather get dental work done
I take more agent to dilate and then it lasts forever and gives me headaches like crazy. Hate it

Digger: thank you! Yea does suck to have old eyes

Scott: not a big fan of dental work either

My eyes took 9 hrs to settle down so I could see
This was my yearly visit & my checkup on glaucoma, cataracts, & my Keratoconus. I have been miserable today

I did get a clean bill of health on everything so that was a positive

Very glad all the numb and blurry has passed but the headache. I am visiting my daughter tomorrow so I hope to ready for Saturday

I am the biggest baby when it comes to my eyes. I once told the optometrist assistant they would have to hold me down to put the drops in my eyes. She laughed like she thought I was joking. I wasn't, and yes, I was already an adult at this point. You can stick me with needles all day long, I'll even watch. I've had a deep gum dental treatment without numbing. Just don't try to put drops in my eyes. Luckily I have 20/15 vision and don't visit the eye doctor very often. I have never been able to see underwater either, don't know if that is related. But opening my eyes underwater makes my eyes feel like they are being scrubbed with sandpaper.
