Monday Melee

Thank God for Fracas Monday Melee without which my concussed brain would be unable to concoct a post today.

1: The Misanthropic.
(Name something - about humanity - you absolutely hate).
This week I have been mostly hating religious intolerance and self-righteousness.

2: The Meretricious:
(Expose someone or something that's phony, fraudulent or bogus).
Amazon's insistence that they sent my last order on the third by first class post. Where the fuck is it?

3: The Malcontent:
(Name something you're unhappy with).
An otherwise spiffy, modern city like Norwich has just two overpriced Japanese restaurants and no (count 'em) sushi bars or noodle bars.

4: The Meritorious.
(Give someone credit for something and name it if you can).
Caffé Nero for putting an extra shot of espresso in my morning latte and not charging for it like all the other bastards do.

5: The Mirror.
(See something good about yourself and name it).
I managed my spring cleaning with only moderate blood loss and concussion.

6: The Make-Believe:
(Name something you wish for).
She knows who she is.

Ooh that last one's going to get us going isn't it. Ok, animal mineral or vegetable? No seriously. Who where when come on Dive you have to give us more than that.

I think your argument should be with the post office rather than amazon to be honest. Rates of post are now exhorbitant and the service just isn't there. My parents sent a parcel to me two weeks ago, first class. Arrived on Friday. Why are we paying first class and not getting our purchase? It's not fit for purpose. Here endeth my rant.

dive said...

I'm right with you on our alleged postal service, Lynn.
My supposed first class post reaches my letterbox sometime around two in the afternoon, when it arrives at all (which this one hasn't).

Scout said...

What, a concussion? If you won't explain your answer to the last one, maybe you can at least explain the concussion.

M.Benaut said...

Your crappy filler was just wonderful, Monsieur, D. All that blood an guts everywhere. How on Earth can a bloke fall out of an attic and not be stone dead, mate? You Brits are made of pretty stern stuff !!!

dive said...

Hi, Robyn.
Monsieur B has explained my concussion.
And MB; I suspect my head is solid bone (my brain's in my ass), which is why I'm still waliking about … unsteadily.

Cheltenhamdailyphoto said...

he he apparently i've FORCED M. Benaut to display his desk now! womanly wiles and all that... lol. We're all snakes really underneath my man reckoned the other day (not directed at me of course and for no apparent reason LOL)

M.Benaut said...

Morning M. Brain-in-Ass.
Hope the brain is drained !! and all them little wounds is healin'.
Since you started it, we all now have joined show-and-tell. At least my G5 has 2 Gig! What's a gig between friends? Happy Tuesday, cobber.

Sassy Sundry said...

Happy Monday, Dive. Sorry about the concussion.

dive said...

Well done, Lynne, though you've earned the name "malfaiseuse" for your troubles.
And well done, Monsieur B. I must say you have a magnificent clock … er … that's CLOCK, ladies!

Hi, Sassy. And a Happy Monday to you, too. Never mind commenting on other folk's blogs, we all want to know how your weekend went and what's the story with Mc.I.
Give it up, girl.

Ame said...

Someone say clock?!?!?

Cheltenhamdailyphoto said...
