May I help you with your overabundance of THICK?

Tourists make me laugh.

Sometimes people come into the hotel so enthused with the joie de vivre that comes from being in another country that it takes every screed of control you have not to wrestle them to the floor and mug them just to inject some much needed cynicism into their veins.

These people arrive at the hotel full of the joys of spring.

Hahahha you're a freakin' genius.

And yeah, I went to Manchester for a day back in 2001. I saw the train station. It was trainy. Then I bought a book and went back to where I was staying.

When I was in Munich, Manchester United were there playing football. I swear they were burning cars afterwards. And I still don't know who won!

Thanks! :) It's mayhem out there at the moment as well. United have just beat City, and I'm sat in my office a stone's throw from Old Trafford. Should be safe enough through, as long as no-one throws a stone.

Here's hoping *crosses fingers*

So basically you're just another boring, bored, bitch who thinks they're better than everyone else and you want us to know it? Well, here's hoping you get the sack from the job you clearly hate and you get to move to a place that you like - rather than choosing to live in a city that's so fucking terrible! Why do you live there anyway? Is someone forcing you?

Grow some balls and move out if you don't like it, or shut the fuck up and grit your teeth - nobody likes a petty little whinger who can't sort themselves out. Especially not if they can't even be funny about it.

By the way, I've only ever driven through Manchester, so I've no axe to grind about it. I just hate petty fucking whingers who blame the world around them for their unhappiness rather than sorting it.

Cheerio.

Deepest thanks for your correspondence

Dear C. Tripper

Re: Deepest thanks for your correspondence

Oh right, so it was meant to be funny? That's me told then.

Next time, before replying, I'll scrape through the disingenousness a bit further and see if the funny shines through.

All the best and may your future be rosier than your outlook.

The future is ALWAYS rosier than my outlook. Such is the benefit of having a cynical outlook. :) Humour is, like all forms of writing, subject to personal opinion.
